Know your travel flow – How to approach your vacation to make sure it’s the best vacation for YOU!

What kind of vacation do you want?

There is no question that planning ahead is key. We hear this mantra all the time when it comes to travel. We might spend a lot of time making sure our passports are up to date and that we have the right shoes to bring – and those are all important, of course. However, what about the pace of your trip? What are the priorities of this potential vacation of a lifetime? And, perhaps most importantly, do your priorities for the trip align with the priorities and wishes of the other people in your travel party?

Travelers can sometimes underestimate those intangibles — travel fatigue, active time vs. downtime, unexpected flight delays that can cause trouble getting to/from accommodations to airports, etc. If those trip goals are not being met or trip mishaps interrupt the “flow” of what was your dream vacation, that can end up leaving a bad taste in your mouth as this is not what you are your party was envisioning or expecting.

At Andean Discovery we will be with you every step of the way. Contact us today at 617-927-9787.
