    Well,

    Let's test the options, starting with option D.

    "Because they had traveled often." This still is a dependent clause, and does not make sense.

    Option C:

    "Since Richard and Denise had traveled often." This is also a dependent clause.

    Option B:

    "Since, they had traveled often." This makes even less sense.

    Option A:

    "They had traveled often." Here we finally have an independent clause that can stand as a sentence by itself. This is the correct option.
