Have you ever been on a solo trip? Some are of the mind it is good to do it once in awhile. Some prefer companions.

I could write a book about what you *might not but maybe do* know about Rome, Italy. 📖

But we'll just start with this post. 📝

Our tips for traveling to Rome, and things to know when you're considering planning a vacation to Rome.

#1: Probably the most important one: BOOK IN ADVANCE! 📅

I can't stress this enough: Impromptu trips are fun and fabulous - but not usually frugal. If money is a big factor in making or breaking this trip for you: plan, plan and plan again. Of course, if you're using an agent, we help with all the knowledge and recommendations - and obviously, planning - for you.

#2: Flight Time ✈️

This will greatly depend on where you depart from, but for instance: Flying from New York, the best you'll get is an 8hr nonstop - which is fabulous - and the shortest from somewhere like Portland, OR will be 14ish hours with a stop. But consider flight time!

#3: If you're able, stay near the Pantheon. 🏛️

With some hotels offering dreamy views, this will keep you near a main attraction with beautiful photo opportunities - but also in a great location for traveling around the city by foot.

Visit the link in our bio to get our help and expertise in planning your vacation.

Here's a couple weird factoids about Rome:

Today's Rome has more than 900 churches ⛪️
About 700,000 euros worth of coins are tossed into the Trevi Fountain - annually.🪙 (And the best part of that is the money is donated to Caritas to help those in need.)
Rome has a museum dedicated exclusively to pasta. 🍝
A Roman Law allows cats to live undisturbed in the place of their birth.

Throwback to our family vacay in Orlando *because we're obsessed*!

I'm a little overzealous when it comes to these colorful signs throughout Disney Springs. But they're so cute!

Definitely missing Ghirardelli's, Earl of Sandwich, Joffrey's, Gideons, and all the other stops unique to Disney Springs and the parks.

Iconic & Tasty. Is there a better combo?

Missing their filet mignon as I think about it. The dinner is killer, edible everything *including the decorative plate paper* enjoyable and with the right company? This makes for an unforgettable experience.

Put it on your bucket list, and tell your travel agent you want a reservation here. We'll do our best to get you the best one.

It's witty Wednesday, and I apologize in advance for this: How do you know elephants love to travel? They always pack their trunks. 🐘

They don't call it the "city of love" for nothing. Dubbed as one of the most romantic, flirtatious and beautiful cities in not only Europe, but the world, Paris is well-deserving of the title.

How about planning this for your next romantic getaway?

Paris is the top honeymoon destination in the world, many people propose in the city and MANY romantic movies are set there.

Happy Valentines Day, fellow travel-lovers ❤️

Exhibit A: Why using a travel agent would avoid this issue. Not to mention they fix it for you too lol.

Have you ever compared traveling to reading? 📖 The world does indeed have a story to be told. AND there's most definitely sequels. 📕 We're the newest release, living out the current story. History consists of the previous titles. 📚

There's a lot of people seeing the world in one of two ways: Putting off career and family to gallivant young and free, or waiting till they've done their share of work and traveling in retirement years. 🧳

But what if there's another way? Planning ahead of time, making your budget work for you instead of the other way around? 💵

And that's where we can help. Not only are we versed in the many "chapters" the world has to offer, but we know how you can afford to navigate them as well. 🧭

Visit the link in our bio to learn more or to get in touch. Our service is free - money-wise and hassle-wise. 😂

Universal studios has many aspects that make it unique, but one of my absolute favorites is the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!

It really does feel like you’re stepping into the movies in the themed land, especially when you have food, drink and robes to match!

Have you been? Comment below you’re favorite part!

Old town, Scottsdale, AZ - a shot from our trip to learn about Scottsdale last year. Still love this place SO much.

There is so many surprising things to do in this town - from old-timey restaurants and shopping adventures, to ATV and hot air balloon rides in the Sonoran desert, you really can’t go wrong visiting a place like Scottsdale.

And that’s coming from somebody who isn’t a dry heat person or fan of places that lack the green and vibrancy of her home state.
