About Us

MorningStar Tours International (www.MSTI.us) knows how to provide quality group travel. We have been building outstanding tours for groups like yours for over 20 years, ranging from destinations throughout all of the USA and Canada to around the globe (the Orient, Mexico, Europe, Central America, etc.) Since we are affiliated with the Institute for Certified Travel Agents (ICTA), you can be assured of our quality and  performance (http://www.ICTA.com).

We are located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and we earn our outstanding reputation by being a people-centered organization. With a keen eye for detail, our trips run smoothly and efficiently. We want the best for you, our customer, and we want you to feel like "family" when the trip is over. Please contact us to let us know how to continue to make that happen.

Specializing in Group Travel

We specialize in quality group travel (the size of each group ranges between 20-55 people, depending upon the destination). But no matter how large the group, we go out of our way to make each trip enjoyable and memorable for each person.

Whether in our country or abroad, there are benefits to traveling in a group. There is "safety in numbers", and members of the group are good at watching out for each other and assisting each other should difficulties arise. Moreover, group reservations enable us to get group discounts, which we enjoy passing on to you! But the best benefit of all is sharing our experience with each other.

What Makes Us Different?

There are many things that make MorningStar Tours International stand out from the crowd. In particular, you'll find the following qualities and services.

  • People-centered: We are a people-centered company. We want to know who you are. If there is a problem or question, we want to work it out to your satisfaction. We want you to have the best time possible.
  • Pre-trip Meeting: We go out of the way to ensure people know each other before the trip. A pre-trip meeting enables you to meet our travel group and compare notes and travel ideas.
  • Convenience: All the work is done for you! The research, correspondence, deposits/final payments, lodging/meals/transportation are all taken care of by our office. You can then shift all your attention to having a good time!
  • Value: We honestly believe you will find us to be one of the best values in the business today. Return knowing your time and money were well spent.
  • Companionship: If you do not have a travel companion, we will do our best to match them with someone compatible to travel with, if you choose. You will have the opportunity to get to know the group before the trip begins. It has been our experience that the trip forges lifelong friendships and most groups and travel companions return home feeling like a family.
  • Flexibility: We do many things together as a group, but you have the flexibility to do what activities you want. In fact, many travelers do a mix of group daytrips and their own small group or individual daytrips.
  • Special Services: We offer special services when it comes to passports, visa, travel insurance. We can help you obtain these if they are needed for your trip. Contact us for more information.

Group Leader Information

Each aspect of every trip is thoroughly researched and knitted together to offer you the best trip possible. We provide quality, problem-free travel that is tailored to your request and the needs of your group.

  • Quality: We are involved in the planning process every step of the way. This helps us tailor your trip to YOUR needs, not our needs. Being directly involved in the planning also ensures we maintain quality and avoid any surprises. Whenever possible, we deal directly with all suppliers to maintain quality.
  • Custom-Tailored: We can take an existing itinerary and tailor it to the needs of your group, or we can create an entirely new itinerary based on your preferences. All trips are customizable. See Custom Travel for more information.
  • Professional Tour Manager: We provide veteran tour managers in the travel industry to guide you through your experience. These are people who know what makes a trip enjoyable and they know how to fix any problems that might come along.
  • Final Details Packet: Before the trip, we produce a detailed packet for every traveler, which contains information answering questions and offering loads of detail about our trip. The packet may include the following.
    • Detailed itinerary of our entire trip
    • Emergency contact information
    • Hotel/Flight/Bus information
    • Departure/Return detail
    • Contact list of every traveler
    • Reminder list of what to bring
  • Carefully Planned Itinerary: We schedule our trips to fit the desires and motivation of the group. We pick the perfect balance between activity and relaxation (i.e., showing you the best tour sites, rather than every single tourist attraction just for the sake of seeing it). We also get a feel for what type of travel you want. Some groups may want "active" travel (like hiking or biking), but other groups may want relaxed tours and luxury hotels. We strive to maintain the proper balance and design the best possible vacation for our travelers.
