DNA JOURNEYS
What is the story of you?
Often our genetic roots extend far beyond the countries of our birth. DNA testing can now give us improved insight into our heritage. A simple cheek swab or saliva test, can help you expand your family tree by providing new insights about your heritage and ethnicity.
Armed with this information, Enlighten Excursions can help you take a heritage tour of your ancestors' homeland, even if you are not sure of the exact location of your ancestral village.

The first step is to request your consultation with Enlighten Excursions to discuss your goals. If your project is a fit and you decide to proceed with the basic service package we will mail you a DNA Test Kit and schedule a 1 hour family history research coaching session with a genealogist.
Once you receive your DNA test kit, follow the instructions and mail it to the lab. Keep in mind that it can take 6-12 weeks for your results to return and during that time you can continue your family history research. Continue independent research or if you'd like research assistance we can refer you to one of our genealogy research partners.
Once you receive your test results you will share your heritage results with us, and continue any additional research that you see fit.
After analyzing the exciting news, your Enlighten Excursions consultant will work with you to get to know your travel style so you can collaborate on crafting the perfect journey for you.
