This is definitely a "jack of all trades" kind of "mall/store".  They have like a million different rooms filled with everything from gourmet food items to antique looking decorations!  There is even a little cafe inside that smelled amazing...will definitely be giving that a try based on the smell alone! =]  Overall, it's a fun, HUGE place filled with something for everyone and yes...you guessed it...a lot of stay at home moms and older women...but it is definitely worth taking a walk through!

A little overrated of a place in Geneva. It's clever with the different rooms and that's about it. It is very appealing to the older crowd. The food room and candy room are about the highlights of this place and there's a couple better candy stores in town so I guess that leaves the food room. Everytime I wander around, I get lost and overwhelemed and get bumped into left and right by old ladies so I have never made it to the Atrium which I heard wasn't that great anyways. It has been around for awhile so it seems to be a mainstay in Geneva, but unless your 80, you might want to stay away.

Mmmmm what's that lovely smell? Smells just like...estrogen....and (sniff sniff) Metamucil... and uh, menopause.

Yeah really old dame heaven. I love this place but I know full well that if I ever tried to bring my boyfriend in here he'd probably throw up.

The Little Traveler is a delightful, girly warren of a place. My favorite rooms are the ones with food samples in them - mostly dips and jams, AWESOME. Eventually if you wander around long enough you'll find the atrium cafe where you can sit around a burbling fountain, drink tea and dish to your lady companion of choice. After lunch, if you wander around even longer you'll probably bump into some old dear who can't find her way out.

Recommended for those with ovaries.

Oi, talk about granny bait!  Room after room of gifts, knick-knacks, cutesy sweaters and outfits.  Oh yeah, Lladros.  I can't knock it too much, it's a nice civilized place to have a pretty good lunch with your mother and aunts, but GET ME OUTTA HERE!  Thing is, a lot of people really rave about it, and it's a matter of values so I'm going try to be fair.
