We had a great time with The Telos Group! Every detail was delivered with care, intention, and excellence. Regarding logistics . . . . Our accommodations were clean and lovely. Our meals were delicious (even for those of us with dietary restrictions) and thoughtfully-local to each area we visited. Travel arrangements were on-time and spacious for our group. Regarding content and overall experience . . . WOW. Our itinerary was incredible. Loved learning from so many leaders, practitioners, experts and tour guides. Loved the variety of classroom learning, on-location learning, and walking tours. Really grateful to hear opposing points of view at times that created healthy tension for our group to wrestle through in conversation. And a lot of my own personal biases were challenged for good. My only regret is that we didn't get to be tourists for an afternoon in quaint Belfast during the Christmas season--but I also know that wasn't the point of our trip. Otherwise, I wouldn't change a thing (except to make it a day or two longer and include the Titanic Museum--in contrast to the Jeannie Johnston Boat story, and Trinity College & The Book of Kells). This was seriously one of the best trips I've ever been on. Thank you to everyone who made this experience possible!
The Telos Group does a wonderful job bringing local speakers to the traveler to hear stories and better understand the complexities in very challenging places. There is neither judgement nor bias from Telos. The experience guides us through the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking so the individual traveler is better equipped to do the work of mutual flourishing in their own communities. Highly recommend!!!
Telos set us all up for an amazing Ireland Pilgrimage. Each day of the trip was full of memorable and meaningful moments that will stay with me the rest of my life. I learned so much from the conversations, tours, shared meals and more.
