Tacky Tourist Photos

Embrace them. Honor them. Share them with us...

TTP celebrates the goofy pictures we pose for when we let our guard down as tourists – because photos of sunsets and statues can get pretty damn boring.

We love to connect with fellow travelers who don't take themselves too seriously -- and especially seek contributions from childhood vacation albums!

"Tacky Tourist Photos: The Exhibition" is available for limited engagements at art, photography and pop culture museums that don't take themselves too seriously. Inquire at tackytouristphotos (at) gmail (dot) com.

Our curators "take the intellectual level down" on NPR's "Here & Now" in a free-wheeling forum on offbeat travel.
