promoting guided tours to St. Petersburg,Russia.  I have a PhD in art
history from the Academy of Arts of St. Petersburg, Russia and have
led tours there 146 times.  We concentrate on art, archtitecture,
shopping, museums, fine food, ballet, music, and luxury

Request for Question Clarification by czh-ga on 15 Sep 2004 09:35 PDT

Hello michigan6-ga,

I'm familiar with several universities in the San Francisco Bay Area
who offer foreing travel workshops in their extension programs. Here's
an example from the University of California, Berkeley. Would this
type of programs meet your needs? How many leads would you accept as
an answer? Do you have geographic limits? Thanks.

Dear CZH:

The reason for my question is I am trying to locate travel
organizations that might want luxury tours to St. Petersburg, Russia. 
I am an American with a High Diplom from the Academy of Arts of St.
Petersburg.  I have operated a tour company since 1996 and have led
tours to Russia for years.  I know we have an outstanding tour and
want to acquaint people with our services.  I am willing to offer a
history of Russian Art to any group that will listen to a tour
presentation free of charge.  We have a travel web site that people
can check out at www.mmarttravel.com Can you think of anyway we can
find out which organizations might be interested?  Michigan6 PhD
