Dear Carolina alumni and friends,

We are pleased to present the UNC General Alumni Association’s Tar Heel Travel program for 2020. Since our first trip in 1971, we have taken alumni, friends and families on journeys to a variety of destinations throughout the world.

We work with some of the finest tour operators in the educational travel industry, and you can take comfort in secure travel arrangements and a travel experience that is enriched with exclusive events and regional experts. Many of our tours offer the opportunity to travel in the company of UNC’s award- winning faculty or University representatives and often connect with Carolina alumni living around the world.

Whether you prefer to travel by land, sea or rail, we have you covered. Take your first visit to Europe or be one of the first travelers to a newly-emerging exotic destination. Check off the bucket-list trip you’ve always wanted to make, and return home with lifelong memories.

We hope you’ll choose to explore the world with us in 2020.

Yours at Carolina,

Douglas S. Dibbert ’70 President The University of North Carolina General Alumni Association
