"Thanks to an enterprising scholar, the Indian culture depicted in the Oscar-winning film ‘Dances With Wolves’ can be more than just a cinematic fantasy. Anthropologist Robert Vetter has organized a series of tours which immerse travelers in the tribal lifestyle of a century ago." National Geographic Traveler

"What is distinctive about this vacation experience is that you participate fully in tribal events. You don’t just sightsee. You set up tipis, visit in homes, talk to artists and musicians, listen to tribal chiefs and elders, and talk one-on-one with those who have lived through the changes that have taken place over the decades. You also participate in Native American life, sit shoulder to shoulder around a fire, talk about traditions and life stories, share meals and joke."

Oakland Tribune

"This adventure engages your mind more than your muscles, giving you an inside look at American Indian life. The trips allow participants to meet chiefs, elders, artists, craftspeople and children from various tribes, sampling their food and witnessing (and sometimes participating

in) their ceremonies." Vacation Magazine

"Robert Vetter formed ‘Journeys Into American Indian Territory,’

drawing upon his personal relationships to give non-Indians access to Indian reservations. Vetter designs week-long immersion programs (he refuses to call them tours) that enable participants literally to experience Indian cultures and lifeways firsthand. These Journeys enable participants to step inside the circle of Indian life." The Educated Traveler
