Travelers no longer want a vanilla vacation.  When they travel to get away, they want unique and unforgettable experiences.

To meet the ever-changing travel desires of consumers with new experiences, we’re seeing ever-fracturing niches in travel So far we’ve seen the likes of religious tourism, beekeeping tourism, graffiti tourism, and grief tourism.

If new breeds of tours can be arranged for budding photographers, eco-sustainability enthusiasts and late sleepers (a KWE favorite!),  just to name just a few, then why not fans of politics and current affairs? That is exact the purpose of Political Tours, a UK firm that promises to deliver “current affairs first hand.”
