Level 1
  • Q: What activity level is the Florida Relaxation tour?

    A: This tour is listed as a Level 1 trip, which makes it one of the more relaxed TCT options. That means it is designed for guests who want an easier pace, less strenuous touring, and more comfort than an active sightseeing trip.
  • Q: Is this a good trip if I cannot walk long distances?

    A: This is a better fit than many more active tours, but you should still be able to board the motorcoach, walk through hotels and restaurants, move through attractions, and keep up with the group at normal travel moments. If walking, balance, or bus steps are a concern, please call before booking so we can talk honestly about what to expect.
  • Q: Will there be a lot of stairs?

    A: The trip is designed as a relaxed tour, not a physically demanding one. That said, travel can still involve coach steps, hotel entrances, restaurants, rest stops, and occasional places where stairs or curbs are part of the setting. If stairs are difficult for you, it is best to ask TCT before booking.
  • Q: Is this trip wheelchair accessible?

    A: This tour is not built as a wheelchair-assisted trip. Guests should be able to move independently through the normal parts of group travel. If you use a wheelchair, scooter, walker, or need regular physical assistance, please call us before booking so we can talk through whether this tour is realistic for you.
  • Q: Will I have time to rest?

    A: Yes. This trip is called Florida Relaxation for a reason. While there will still be activities, meals, travel days, and group plans, the overall spirit of the trip is slower and more restful than a busy city-hopping itinerary. It is meant to feel like a winter break, not a marathon.
  • Q: What should I pack for comfort?

    A: Bring comfortable shoes, layered clothing for changing temperatures, any medications you need, a light jacket or sweater for cool mornings and evenings, and simple travel items that help you feel settled. Even in Florida, January weather can vary, so layers are wise.
  • Q: Will I come home exhausted?

    A: The goal is the opposite. TCT’s Florida Relaxation tour is built for guests who want to escape Wisconsin winter, enjoy the Gulf Coast, and come home refreshed. There will still be travel days and group activities, but this is not designed as a high-intensity tour.
  • Q: Is this a motorcoach tour from Wisconsin to Florida?

    A: Yes. This tour includes deluxe motorcoach transportation from Wisconsin to Florida and back. That means you do not have to book flights, drive yourself, rent a car, or navigate unfamiliar roads.
  • Q: Will the bus ride feel long?

    A: Wisconsin to Florida is a real drive, and we want to be honest about that. The benefit is that you are not behind the wheel. You can rest, read, visit, enjoy devotions, look out the window, and let the driver handle the miles. Many TCT guests find that the coach time becomes part of the fellowship.
  • Q: Is there a restroom on the motorcoach?

    A: TCT domestic motorcoach tours use coaches with restrooms. We also make planned stops along the way. The onboard restroom is helpful, but regular rest stops are still part of comfortable group travel.
  • Q: Who drives the coach?

    A: TCT works with professional motorcoach drivers. Guests have often praised the drivers for being competent, patient, and helpful. The assigned driver can vary by departure, but the expectation is safe, steady, professional travel.
  • Q: Are there stops along the way?

    A: Yes. A motorcoach trip of this distance includes stops for meals, restrooms, stretching, and overnight lodging as planned in the itinerary. The goal is to make the journey manageable and comfortable.
  • Q: What if I usually avoid airports but still want to go somewhere warm?

    A: This is one of the reasons the Florida Relaxation tour is so appealing. You can get to Florida without airport lines, long terminals, baggage claims, security checkpoints, or flight delays. For many guests, that alone makes the trip feel easier.
  • Q: Why Clearwater?

    A: Clearwater gives guests the Florida feeling they are looking for in January: sunshine, Gulf Coast scenery, a slower pace, and a break from cold weather. It is a good fit for travelers who want warmth and relaxation without having to plan every detail themselves.
  • Q: What kind of lodging is included?

    A: The tour includes premium lodging. TCT’s approach is not flashy luxury, but comfortable, well-chosen lodging that supports the trip. We want guests to feel rested, safe, and well cared for at the end of each day.
  • Q: Are meals included?

    A: Yes. This tour includes 24 or more meals as noted in the itinerary. That is a major benefit for guests who do not want to figure out every breakfast, lunch, and dinner on their own.
  • Q: Can dietary restrictions be accommodated?

    A: Please tell us about dietary needs when you book. We will do our best to communicate those needs to hotels and restaurants, but options can vary by location. If you have a serious allergy or strict medical diet, call before booking so we can talk through what is realistic.
  • Q: Will there be free time?

    A: A relaxation tour should include room to breathe, but the exact free time depends on the final itinerary. The purpose of this trip is not to cram every minute. It is to enjoy Florida, fellowship, and a slower winter escape.
  • Q: Can I book a single room?

    A: Yes, single travelers can usually book their own room if space is available. A single supplement may apply because hotels charge by the room, not by the number of people using it.
  • Q: Is this a good trip for widows or widowers?

    A: Yes. A relaxed winter motorcoach trip can be a very good fit for widowed travelers who still want to see places, enjoy fellowship, and travel safely with a group. You can come alone without feeling like you are truly on your own.
  • Q: Is this a good couples trip?

    A: Yes. Florida Relaxation is a nice couples trip because it gives you warmth, rest, meals, lodging, transportation, and fellowship without asking one of you to do all the planning or driving.
  • Q: What is included in the price?

    A: The tour includes deluxe motorcoach transportation, premium lodging, 24 or more meals as listed in the itinerary, planned group activities, and TCT tour leadership. Review the official itinerary for the exact day-by-day inclusions.
  • Q: Are there hidden fees?

    A: TCT works to be clear about what is included and what is not. You should plan for personal expenses, tips, meals not listed in the itinerary, and insurance if you choose to purchase it. If you are unsure about a cost, call before booking and we will walk through it with you.
  • Q: Is travel insurance required?

    A: Travel insurance is optional for this domestic trip, but it is strongly recommended. Illness, falls, family emergencies, and unexpected changes can happen. Insurance helps protect the money you have put toward the trip.
  • Q: What if I am nervous about spending this much on one trip?

    A: That is understandable. For many guests, this trip is not just “a hotel and a bus ride.” It is a warm January escape, a Christian group atmosphere, transportation handled, lodging arranged, meals included, and a chance to enjoy Florida while you are still healthy enough to go. The value is in the ease, the fellowship, and the peace of mind.
  • Q: How do I know TCT is trustworthy?

    A: Tom’s Christian Tours has been serving Christian travelers since 1995. TCT is a Midwest family company, now led by Tom and Becca Monroe, continuing a long family legacy. Guests often come back because they feel known, cared for, and personally guided—not processed through a call center.

Itinerary

Day 1

Monday, January 11


Our adventure starts as we depart from Green Bay and pick up fellow travelers in Appleton, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac, Lomira, Allenton and Milwaukee. As we settle into our comfortable motorcoach, you can take in the scenery of the Midwest while chatting with new friends. After crossing Illinois and Kentucky and an included lunch, we arrive in Nashville, Tennessee, where a warm welcome awaits at the Drury Inn & Suites Nashville. After check‑in, unwind and enjoy the hotel’s complimentary evening Kickback with hot food and beverages.

Day 2

Tuesday, January 12


The following day we continue south through Tennessee and Alabama, pausing for comfort stops and a leisurely lunch near Montgomery. By late afternoon we reach Valdosta, Georgia. Our stay at the Drury Plaza Inn & Suites offers another evening of relaxation and a chance to savor the complimentary Kickback before turning in for the night.

Day 3

Wednesday, January 13


After breakfast, we leave Georgia and make our way to Florida’s Gulf Coast, arriving at the Holiday Inn & Suites Clearwater Beach. This beachfront hotel offers Gulf‑view rooms, and its enviable location means you’re mere steps from white sand and turquoise waters. Everything you need—from groceries to restaurants and shopping—is within easy walking distance. After an orientation stroll along the shoreline, take time to soak in the Florida sunshine and enjoy dinner on your own at a nearby restaurant.

Day 4

Thursday, January 14


Our first full day in Clearwater takes us to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, home to rescued dolphins, sea turtles and otters. After meeting these inspiring animals, we head an included group lunch in the area. The afternoon is yours to relax on the beach and have dinner on your own.

Day 5

Friday, January 15


Enjoy a full day of leisure on Clearwater Beach. Whether you prefer a calm stroll along the promenade, lounging under a beach umbrella, browsing local shops or joining a sunset cruise, there are countless ways to enjoy this slice of paradise. With restaurants and grocery stores just steps away, it’s easy to plan a picnic or savor fresh seafood at a beachfront café

Day 6

Saturday, January 16


Today we journey to Tarpon Springs, a charming Greek‑American community renowned for its natural sponge industry. Wander along Dodecanese Boulevard, where shops overflow with natural sponges and Greek pastries. Board a gentle sightseeing boat for a narrated cruise around the sponge docks, then choose your lunch spot at one of the many tavernas serving authentic Greek fare. Late afternoon we will head back to Clearwater beach for an Included dinner on along the water.

Day 7

Sunday, January 17


Sunday offers a welcome pause. Attend an optional worship service, relax on the beach or explore the markets. This is your day to enjoy Clearwater at your own pace.

Day 8

Monday, January 18


We begin with a visit to Sunken Gardens, a century‑old botanical garden with paved pathways leading past waterfalls, koi ponds and more than 500 species of lush tropical plants. The gardens provide accessible parking, restrooms and wheelchair‑friendly walkways. After a peaceful stroll, enjoy lunch in downtown St. Petersburg and spend the afternoon discovering the Historic Kenwood arts district’s galleries and studios. An included group dinner this evening will be the perfect end to the day.

Day 9

Tuesday, January 19


This day is yours to discover even more of the Gulf Coast. You might visit John’s Pass Village & Boardwalk for shopping and dining, join a dolphin‑watching cruise or simply enjoy another day on the beach. Relax and prepare for the return journey.

Day 10

Wednesday, January 20


We say goodbye to the warm breezes of Clearwater Beach and begin our journey north toward Georgia. The ride offers time to relax, enjoy the scenery, and reminisce about our week along the Gulf Coast. Along the way, we make a special stop at the Museum of Aviation in Warner Robins—one of the largest aviation museums in the country.



After our visit, we continue to Morrow, where we settle into the Drury Inn & Suites for the evening. Once checked in, everyone can unwind and enjoy Drury’s signature Kickback reception while sharing stories from a memorable week in the sun.

Day 11

Thursday, January 21


After breakfast, we travel through Tennessee and Kentucky, passing rolling hills and farmland. Arriving in Terre Haute, Indiana, we check in at the Drury Inn & Suites, where our farewell gathering provides a fitting end to our shared adventure.

Day 12

Our final day takes us through Illinois back to Wisconsin. We drop off our Milwaukee travelers and continue to Fond du Lac and then Green Bay, where we say goodbye to new friends and take home memories of sunny beaches, captivating excursions and relaxing moments.

    A: This is a better fit than many more active tours, but you should still be able to board the motorcoach, walk through hotels and restaurants, move through attractions, and keep up with the group at normal travel moments. If walking, balance, or bus steps are a concern, please call before booking so we can talk honestly about what to expect.

If you use a wheelchair, scooter, walker, or need regular physical assistance, please call us before booking so we can talk through whether this tour is realistic for you.
  • Q: Will I have time to rest?

    A: Yes. This trip is called Florida Relaxation for a reason. While there will still be activities, meals, travel days, and group plans, the overall spirit of the trip is slower and more restful than a busy city-hopping itinerary. It is meant to feel like a winter break, not a marathon.
  • Q: What should I pack for comfort?

    A: Bring comfortable shoes, layered clothing for changing temperatures, any medications you need, a light jacket or sweater for cool mornings and evenings, and simple travel items that help you feel settled. Even in Florida, January weather can vary, so layers are wise.

    A: This is one of the reasons the Florida Relaxation tour is so appealing. You can get to Florida without airport lines, long terminals, baggage claims, security checkpoints, or flight delays. For many guests, that alone makes the trip feel easier.
  • Q: Why Clearwater?

    A: Clearwater gives guests the Florida feeling they are looking for in January: sunshine, Gulf Coast scenery, a slower pace, and a break from cold weather. It is a good fit for travelers who want warmth and relaxation without having to plan every detail themselves.
  • Q: What kind of lodging is included?

    A: The tour includes premium lodging. TCT’s approach is not flashy luxury, but comfortable, well-chosen lodging that supports the trip. We want guests to feel rested, safe, and well cared for at the end of each day.
  • Q: Are meals included?

    A: Yes. This tour includes 24 or more meals as noted in the itinerary. That is a major benefit for guests who do not want to figure out every breakfast, lunch, and dinner on their own.
  • Q: Can dietary restrictions be accommodated?

    A: Please tell us about dietary needs when you book. We will do our best to communicate those needs to hotels and restaurants, but options can vary by location. If you have a serious allergy or strict medical diet, call before booking so we can talk through what is realistic.
  • Q: Will there be free time?

    A: A relaxation tour should include room to breathe, but the exact free time depends on the final itinerary. The purpose of this trip is not to cram every minute. It is to enjoy Florida, fellowship, and a slower winter escape.
  • Q: Can I book a single room?

    A: Yes, single travelers can usually book their own room if space is available. A single supplement may apply because hotels charge by the room, not by the number of people using it.
  • Q: Is this a good trip for widows or widowers?

    A: Yes. A relaxed winter motorcoach trip can be a very good fit for widowed travelers who still want to see places, enjoy fellowship, and travel safely with a group. You can come alone without feeling like you are truly on your own.
  • Q: Is this a good couples trip?

    A: Yes. Florida Relaxation is a nice couples trip because it gives you warmth, rest, meals, lodging, transportation, and fellowship without asking one of you to do all the planning or driving.
  • Q: What is included in the price?

    A: The tour includes deluxe motorcoach transportation, premium lodging, 24 or more meals as listed in the itinerary, planned group activities, and TCT tour leadership. Review the official itinerary for the exact day-by-day inclusions.
  • Q: Are there hidden fees?

    A: TCT works to be clear about what is included and what is not. You should plan for personal expenses, tips, meals not listed in the itinerary, and insurance if you choose to purchase it. If you are unsure about a cost, call before booking and we will walk through it with you.
  • Q: Is travel insurance required?

    A: Travel insurance is optional for this domestic trip, but it is strongly recommended. Illness, falls, family emergencies, and unexpected changes can happen. Insurance helps protect the money you have put toward the trip.
  • Q: What if I am nervous about spending this much on one trip?

    A: That is understandable. For many guests, this trip is not just “a hotel and a bus ride.” It is a warm January escape, a Christian group atmosphere, transportation handled, lodging arranged, meals included, and a chance to enjoy Florida while you are still healthy enough to go. The value is in the ease, the fellowship, and the peace of mind.
  • Q: How do I know TCT is trustworthy?

    A: Tom’s Christian Tours has been serving Christian travelers since 1995. TCT is a Midwest family company, now led by Tom and Becca Monroe, continuing a long family legacy. Guests often come back because they feel known, cared for, and personally guided—not processed through a call center.

Customer Recommendation

Experience thoughtfully planned adventures that combine exceptional destinations, genuine fellowship, and the comfort of traveling with a trusted Christian community.


Tour Directors Who Pray With You, Not Just Greet You

Our directors lead the devotions, share their own faith stories, and join the dinner conversation. They aren't hired guides reading a script; for them, leading Christian travel is a calling, not a paycheck.


A Midwest Family Company, three Generations Deep

Scott and Tammy ran TCT for 13 years and their son Tom and his wife Becca run it today. Call us and you'll reach a real human: no call center, no hold queue, no outsourced bookings desk.


Premium Travel Without the Luxury Markup

We don't pretend to be Four Seasons or Viking Cruises. We pick mid-to-premium hotels, well-run restaurants, and quality experiences without the luxury markup, so you get comfort and real value without paying for a brand name


Comfortable Pacing, Designed for the Long Haul

We don't cram 14 cities into 7 days. Our itineraries leave room for free afternoons, sit-down meals, and the kind of pacing that lets you come home rested instead of running on fumes.


Christian Travel That Goes Beyond Bible Lands

Most Christian tours specialize in Israel and Egypt. We travel all across the US and around the world because we know it’s not the destination that matters, it's the like-minded people that make every place feel closer to home.


A Fellowship That Feels Like Family

Most tour groups scatter at the end of the trip and never speak again. Our guests trade Christmas cards, host each other for dinner back home, and rebook the next trip together year after year
