Ken Burns & Dayton Duncan

America's Best Idea, Experienced As It Was Meant to Be

When documentary filmmaker Ken Burns teamed with Tauck, the goal was simple: provide travelers with a deeper emotional connection to America's most sacred landscapes. Through exclusive filmed vignettes produced specifically for Tauck guests, Ken Burns shares personal stories of the conservationists, native peoples, and pioneers who shaped these natural monuments.

While other tourists struggle to find parking or must stay in generic motel chains hours outside the gates, Tauck guests sleep right at the rim of the Grand Canyon, beneath the mist of Old Faithful, and along the turquoise shores of Lake Louise.
