About TNR Travel
The New Republic’s travel program is designed in the spirit of our political, social, and cultural content. TNR’s excursions started with our iconic Cuba trip and have expanded down South with expectations to add more destinations in the coming year. Each trip is curated by experts to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience that brings the essence of the destination alive through meetings with locals—from political activists to historians to artists, musicians, chefs, and taxi drivers. Our guides are chosen for the knowledge and wisdom they bring to the trip and their ability to inspire the ever-curious, lifelong traveler and student of people, places, and things.
What Is TNR Travel?
We focus on destinations that are not only culturally fascinating but have a political history that we’ll explore and learn from.

We curate our trips for progressive thinkers and thoughtful travelers who want to be immersed in the community and cultures we visit. Expect to enjoy local food and wine, music, dance, and art during what we hope will be one of your most memorable vacations ever (until you travel with us again).

Your safety is priority number one. You will travel with responsible, vaccinated organizers and hosts, using safe transportation, and will not venture into areas deemed unsafe.
