  • Shockey 2018 Catalog 72.Pdf
    TRAVEL TREASURES 2018 SEE AMERICA COAST TO COAST Dear Friends, What a change time makes in modern day travel. Growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s my parents seldom ventured beyond our hometown of Louisville, Ky. On occasion we would visit some relatives in Portland, Tn. but most often Eastview, Ky. was our “vacation” destination of choice. Tere my Dad’s parents lived on a farm with plenty of felds, woods, clean springs to drink water from, and barns to play in. In the evening we could watch westerns on the black and white TV screen. I could only dream of one day possibly getting to go out west. Guess what? Tis year my wife Donna and I did just that. We went on the Black Hills-Grand Tetons-Canadian Rockies Tour in August. Words can’t describe how great this trip was. Te wonder and beauty of God’s grace through this North American creation, what has sometimes been called breathtaking, is no joke. Lots to see and do, if ever possible give this tour a try. It was beyond my dreams. Our desire for you (our Shockey friends) would be to look through this 2018 catalog and maybe fnd a tour of your dreams and become venturous enough to fulfll it. Life is too short not to. Travel is easy, exciting, and relaxing with Shockey Tours. We can provide you with a worry-free vacation, one that ofers you the comfort of having a trained professional guide to care for you within the security of a group, and our professional drivers and comfortable coaches will ensure you the most pleasant trip possible.

  • Shockey-Catalog-2017.Pdf
    Dear Friends, Wow, what an amazing and adventurous year 2016 has been. Here we are preparing for 2017 with some new as well as some past tour travels and this year is almost gone. We hope that you will join us on some travel adventures, make some new friends, and share many memories of the fun times you had while on tour with us. Donna, some friends, and myself went on our first Shockey Tour this past March to Washington D.C. for the Cherry Blossom tour. With several veterans on the bus joining us I was deeply moved at the memorials that we visited and I was extremely impressed with the tour operations of Shockey Tours. This is certainly the only way to go. There is no way I would want to do such a tour on my own. In 2016 we would distribute tour evaluation surveys to our passengers to which I get to review. These assist us in making changes, if necessary, to make Shockey Tours the best it can be. Most of the travelers that participated with the surveys were well pleased. For 2017 we have added the opportunity to pay online. Several of our travelers have asked about this option and now it has been put into place. Visit our website at www.shockeytours.com. Please take time and look through the new 2017 catalog, select where you may like to visit, and allow Shockey Tours to take you there. We appreciate your travel business and the opportunity to serve you. Your Friends, Marvin, Donna, Ron, and Becky *For the many that ask, John and Faye are doing fine and still enjoying whatever retired folks like to do.* Marvin & Donna Cundiff Ron & Becky Daugherty Gary & Bonnie Lameyer Duane King Owner Owner General Managers Charter Manager Win a Tour!
