Are we famous yet?!?

Friendship Tours & The Ship Shop was featured on Great Day CT & Great Day @ 9A on WFSB Channel 3 on four Tuesdays in January & February 2026!

We had a great time speaking with Scot Haney & friends on both of these morning tv programs for 4 consecutive weeks.

We loved hearing from so many of our travelers that they saw us LIVE on the programs. We also had many new potential travelers reach out to us to request our new 2026 tour catalog.

We can't wait to see you all on the road, in the air, and on the water with us for a fabulous year of travel in 2026!

If you missed us live, here are the recorded segments.
