What's happening in 2026? We're headed to Borrego Springs!
Reconnect, Recharge, and Continue the Tradition With Us!
Four day, three night retreat to Borrego Springs March 16-19, 2026.
Pack your sense of adventure and join us for the 33rd Annual Borrego Escape!
Nestled among sweeping mountain vistas and star-filled skies, this annual four day/3 night escape at the Palm Canyon Hotel is the perfect blend of relaxation, camaraderie, and discovery.
Imagine warm desert days spent exploring the natural wonders of Anza-Borrego, leisurely afternoons catching up with friends old and new, and peaceful evenings beneath one of California’s most breathtaking night skies.
Whether you’re drawn to scenic hikes, desert wildflowers, local art, or simply the joy of unhurried time with fellow retirees, our Borrego tradition offers something for everyone.
We hope you’ll join us for this memorable annual retreat—where the desert quiets the mind, friendships warm the spirit, and the stars remind us why this escape has been a treasured tradition for so many years.

Cruise the Adriatic - Croatia & Montenegro in 2027!
Join us for a Small Ship cruise of the coastlines of Croatia & Montenegro.
Space is limited on this small-ship cruise so reserve your spot soon and take advantage of the Good-Buy Discount.
Small Groups: Travel in two small groups, each no more than 25 travelers, guaranteed.
- Unbeatable Value: Travel at the lowest price and per diems in the industry.
- People-to-People Experiences: Travel off the beaten path to a local farmhouse in Varazdin, where you'll chat with the farmer about the inner workings of the property and help prepare a traditional snack. Plus, enjoy our Day in the Life experience when you travel to a village in the Croatian countryside to immerse yourself in the day-to-day routines of the people who call this region home.
- O.A.T. Exclusives: We’ll learn about a Controversial Topic when we meet a woman who defied gender roles to stay behind and help her fellow citizens survive the brutal siege of Dubrovnik during the Croatian War of Independence. We’ll also go beyond the major cities to Croatia's remote gems like the small port of Hvar and the countryside Gromaca village, where you'll meet village residents and learn more about their way of life during a Home-Hosted Dinner with a local family.
- Customize Your Experience: Join the growing number of travelers who extend their time abroad. Add a pre-trip extension to Slovenia: Ljubljana's Old World Charm or post-trip extension to Bosnia & Herzegovina: The Irrepressible Spirit of Sarajevo, or both of these extensions to your Adriatic adventure—when you do, you’ll enjoy more time to develop bonds with your fellow travelers.
- Local Expertise: Explore in the company of a local Trip Experience Leader, and follow an itinerary that’s been carefully crafted by O.A.T.’s Croatia office—staffed with 52 regional associates.
