The history of Heritage Tours goes back to 1974, when Bob Eliason suggested to an American Fork Stake Presidency that they should consider a Church History tour for the Seminary students of American Fork High School.  Permission was granted and the first tour began in June of 1974.  This tour was called the American Fork Seminary Tour and was made up of 45 students, one bus, and all were seminary graduates.  The next year the group grew to two busses and was called the Tri Stake Seminary Tour.  The tours were camping trips—cooking their own meals, sleeping in tents, traveling for 17 days and covering almost 7000 miles.

That was the beginning…see where they are now.
