50 Years - 3 Generations - Thousands of Memories

​

In 1958, Dick Lambert, along with 3 missionary companions decided to charter a flight to New Zealand to take their family and friends to the dedication of the Aukland, New Zealand Temple. They had such great success they decided to start Beehive Tours & Travel. Dick's son Chris joined the Beehive Team in 1971. Beehive had many years of success and Chris moved up the ranks to become chairman of the board.

​

in 1990, Chris decided to start his own company, Destinations, Inc and soon after LDS World Travel, a division of Destinations, inc.  In 2006 LDS World Travel was selected by the Joseph Smith Papers Project to lead them on a tour for the filming of the Joseph Smith Papers Documentary seen on Salt Lake City-based KJZZ television.
