Travel Inspirations – Luxury Travel

Whether you discovered luxury-level travel a while ago or whether you’re thinking it’s time you treated yourself, once you enter the world of luxury travel, you won’t ever want to go back.

A private beachside bungalow suite is perfect for couples at Ponta Dos Ganchos in Brazil. Privacy is guaranteed and meals are customized just for you. It’s the perfect honeymoon destination.

Set on a 37,000-acre cattle ranch in Montana, Paws Up offers deluxe ranch house accommodation– or go “glamping” in a luxury tent and a camp butler. Think Yellowstone!

Newfoundland’s Fogo Island Inn is like no other hotel you have ever imagined and is a destination in itself. A truly unique experience for any occasion – or just because you’re curious!

Here’s a different way to see the Galapagos—stay at the luxury Pikaia Lodge, looking out over the Pacific Ocean. Package stays include a yacht trip to explore the more remote islands and species of the Galapagos.

Let’s discuss upgrading your next special occasion to a luxury class.

Summer is right around the corner and for many, that means family vacations. The kids are out of school, and it is a great opportunity for some family time.

The beaches of Central California offer a great vacation for older kids and teens — beachcombing, surfing, kayaking, and whale watching are all big draws for families.

Explore beautiful Costa Rica and stay at an eco-lodge or a relaxed beach hotel —- go zip lining in the rainforests and learn Spanish together!

New parents with little ones? The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal in Los Cabos, Mexico is ideal for a new family. There’s a great babysitting service for all ages including infants that allows you to take naps, yoga classes, and enjoy excellent dining.

If you want to immerse your gang in culture and history, there’s no place like Rome. Compact and with awesome sights and food, and the kids will love it.

Travel Inspirations – Exciting Vacations Ideas

There’s a lot of talk about “bucket list” trips these days and usually these lists all feature unique, legendary spots around the world.

But current trends show that sometimes, people just want to take a vacation to somewhere more relaxing.

One idea is a group culinary tour in Europe – in Italy alone, each region has its own cuisine. And then there are the wines! Or discover tapas in Spain. Or the wines of Portugal. The options are endless.

New Orleans is famous for Mardi Gras – but did you know there’s a spring jazz festival that is a perfect time to visit and sample the Creole and Cajun cuisine while you’re there.

New Zealand’s diverse North Island features cities, beaches, awesome scenery and great hiking country.

And who knew that Arizona has a wine region? Yes! Amidst the red rocks of Sedona sits the Verde Valley where you can do wine tours and enjoy the unique surroundings.

Let’s discuss where you’d like to go next!

Travel Inspirations – Traveling Off the Beaten Path

Looking to escape? There are some lovely parts of the world not too far from the popular, overcrowded spots that everyone flocks to.

In the Canadian Rockies, consider Waterton National Park – a lesser-known UNESCO World Heritage site south of Banff National Park alongside the U.S. border with great trails as and a navigable lake.

Did you know there are ancient pyramids high above Mexico’s Oaxaca City? Monte Alban attracts far fewer visitors than Chichen Itza or Teotihuacan and predates both of them! Explore to your heart’s content.

Or discover the many trails of the Lost Sierra, California on foot, on horseback, on a trail bike, or on an off-road motorcycle—- a 4-hour drive northeast of San Francisco will find you in spectacular wilderness.

And for something completely different, explore the mountains of Utuado just a short drive from San Juan, Puerto Rico — but a world apart! Explore indigenous history. Experience peace and quiet!

Let’s find your perfect escape – but shhhhh, don’t tell anyone!
