Travel Dynamics International is one of the leading operators of high-caliber educational programs aboard small cruise ships. Offering customized voyages guided by distinguished scholars and experts, Travel Dynamics International caters to the traveler with a keen intellectual interest in history, culture, and nature.

Founded on the belief that traveling and learning about the world and its many cultures enriches individuals and society as a whole, Travel Dynamics International excels at voyages to places that offer a historic and cultural environment.

Travelers to Africa often wonder if their tourist dollars really make a difference toward improving the lives of everyday Africans. For every traveler on the Road to Timbuktu and the Rivers of West Africa program, Travel Dynamics International makes a donation to WaterAid.

Since 2000, WaterAid has been operating in all of the regions to which TDI travels in Mali, helping nearly 19,000 people gain access to safe water, most often by protecting wells and building handpumps in rural areas, and by building latrines and encouraging community soap-making in urban communities.

WaterAid's goal is to increase this number by 41,000 by 2011. TDI’s seven departures during 2007 provided thousands of people with safe drinking water and other related benefits for the rest of their lives.
