About Our Trips:
  • Tater Tours is all about walking. We specialize in Volkswalking*, non-competitive, social walking.
     
  • I contract with select bus companies. I seek out companies with coaches that are all ultra modern European style buses.
     
  • Fully Escorted Deluxe Bus Transportation
     
  • Hotel accommodations at mostly 3 Star Hotels. I make every effort to stay in at least 3 star hotels with complimentary continental breakfast provided. Non-smoking rooms are a very high priority on my list. Having restaurants within walking distance of the hotel is definitely considered.
     
  • Deluxe Continental Breakfast at most Hotels
     
  • All Taxes and Tips, including the Bus Driver and Tour Escort
     
  • On Departure Day, bagels, coffee, juice, and fresh fruit
     
  • Refreshments and snacks throughout the trip (Sometimes including homemade cookies)
     
  • Entrance Fees for specific museums, parks, etc.
  • Tater Tour Gift

A Little History:

Tater  Tours was started in 1994 as a part time business for Mary Ptacek.  Why the name you ask?  In her military days everyone had a hard time pronouncing her last name and her fellow co-workers called her “Potato Chip”.  And now you know how she thought of her business name!  She is “Head Tater” and her customers are her “Tater Tots”! 

What started out being just vans trips to walks in Philadelphia, turned into three day bus trips to New York, that lead to two week bus trips to the AVA Conventions.

She likes to incorporate sightseeing in with the walking also.  In 1996, she pursued her dreams and the business became her full-time employment.  She lived in Maryland for 17 years and was very active in the local walking clubs.

She decided to expand her business by moving to Las Vegas, Nevada. (The land of paradise, lights, and gambling!)

News From The Head Tater:  Mary, the Head Tater, wants to say "Thank You" for all those that patronized her trips. Hope to see you all in 2009!
 

 

*About Volkssporting:

A volksmarch is a non-competitive 6 mile (10 kilometer) walk. It's not a pledge walk, it's not a race, it is a fun activity you do with a club, with your family, with your pet, or all by yourself. Volksmarching got its name from its origins in Europe. Today there are thousands of volkssport clubs around the world. More...
