Hey there, fellow wanderlusts! As the sun begins to grace us with its warm embrace and the days grow longer, the siren call of the Mediterranean grows stronger. With its promise of balmy weather, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant cultures, it's no wonder this enchanting region tops the bucket lists of travelers worldwide. My top 3 picks for the Mediterranean are: 1) Athens. You can't go wrong with seeing the wonders of ancient Greece, exploring the Parthenon, & winding your way through this bustling city. 2) Mykonos. There are SO many Greek islands to choose from, but Mykonos is an excellent choice for a first-time visitor. Soak up the views, food, and iconic blue/white architecture. 3) Istanbul. For something different, make your way over to Turkey to visit one of the most beautiful religious sites: the Hagia Sophia. Here you'll find a culture so distinct from that of Greece, but one that is absolutely essential to the Mediterranean. These are just a few of the many incredible destinations that await you in the Mediterranean. So, which one will YOU choose? #Mediterranean #ExploreTheMediterranean #TravelMemories #turkey #Greece #greekislands #istanbul #Athens #mykonos
Hanoi is chaos embodied. Narrow roads with even narrower alleys, all worth exploring. Traffic has no discernible rules, yet also no accidents. French and Vietnamese architecture mingle, and an ever-present light mist coats the city in humidity. Freshly baked bánh mì, marinated grilled pork, and incense pervade the air. On weekends, the city comes alive as traffic is blocked off to create a pedestrian zone around Hoan Kiem Lake and the French District. There is so much to do, see, taste, and learn in Vietnam's capitol, and I want everyone to experience what this beautiful city has to offer.

Time ⏰
We all want more of it, am I right? And saving time is probably one of the best things I get to give my clients.

When you work with me, you get to do all of the dreaming, and I do all of the heavy lifting to bring your perfect family getaway to life. I take care of all of the above (plus keeping track of all those reservation codes!) so you can reclaim your time.
When you’re ready to get started planning, get in touch. And in the meantime, leave your travel questions below. I’m here to help!

Call me biased, but anniversaries are best spent on a trip.
The trick is finding the best trip to fit your vibe as a couple.
Here are 5 ideas for every kind of couple:
For the beach-loving couple: Island-hopping in Thailand. The islands off the coast of Thailand have some of the most beautiful beaches, with an island to match just about every couple's travel style. Relax on Koh Jum, explore the cultural and naturalistic beauty on Koh Samui, or party on Phuket!
For the foodie couple: A culinary tour of Italy. The Italian food scene is so much more than pasta (though the pasta is also a highlight!) From beautiful coastal seafood to the rustic meat-based dishes of central Tuscany, there is so much variety in Italian cuisine.
For the couple seeking relaxation: An adult-only all-inclusive resort in the Caribbean. For the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation, head to an adult-only all-inclusive resort - complete with quiet pools, spas, and private beach access.
For the adventurous couple: A walking or trekking tour. Walking tours are an incredible way to experience a new country and to connect with the landscapes and locals! Walk the pilgrimage path of the Camino de Santiago, explore the rolling countryside of the Cotswold Way, or take a guided trek on the Inca Trail in Peru.
For the fandom couple: A trip to Middle Earth (AKA New Zealand). Walk in Frodo's footsteps as you explore the awe-inspiring beauty of New Zealand. Eat second breakfast in Hobbiton, tour Weta Workshop, and visit some of the landscapes used as filming locations like Rivendell and Lothlorien.
The beauty of working with me is that you have absolute flexibility to craft any type of trip you want!

Not nearly enough people talk about European Fall.
✅ The ramblas and piazzas are a little less crowded.
✅ The cafes and restaurants are a little more peaceful.
✅ The lineups for major attractions are a little less busy.
And with how busy Europe is expected to be this summer, Fall really is looking all the more appealing.
I already have clients booked for trips to Portugal and the UK this Fall. if you're interested in a custom itinerary for a Fall adventure, don't hesitate to send me a DM!

My top Iceland favorites! If you're touring the Golden Circle, stop at Friðheimar for tomato soup and freshly baked bread. Also check out their hidden greenhouse wine bar, Vínstofa Friðheima. 🍷 Every single thing on the Golden Circle is worth seeing, but If you're venturing off this beaten path, the West Fjords are so underrated and absolutely stunning to see in person. There are countless things to see and do: hikes, waterfalls, etc. One of my absolute favorites? A day at The Retreat in their spa, saunas, steam rooms, and a private slice of the Blue Lagoon — it's SUCH a great experience. Have you been to Iceland yet? 🇮🇸

Sintra is just a short train ride from Lisbon and makes for an excellent day trip! Here are my top picks for things to do in Sintra:
🏰 Palácio da Pena: Take the shuttle up to this stunning palace set on a hill. Its elaborately decorated interior, magnificent staterooms, and forested gardens are not to be missed!
🏰 Quinta da Regaleira: This 19th century neo-gothic mansion has beautiful gardens (that conceal a cave system!), hidden pathways, and mystical symbolism.
🏰 Castelo dos Mouros: This Moorish castle that stands high above the city offers magnificent bird's-eye views from its battlements.
🏰 Historic City Centre: Get lost in the winding narrow streets, beautiful architecture, and picturesque cafes.

What’s the best time to visit Lisbon? It depends on the type of vacation you’re looking for. For those who like milder weather and fewer crowds, March to May and September to October are a great time to visit.
If you’d like to enjoy the beach, summer is the best time to soak up the sun and sand. But don’t write off winter - the temperatures are warmer than most European cities and there is tons to explore and do, including Christmas festivities that take over the city in November and December. Pick your season and I’ll help you plan an unforgettable trip. What season would you prefer to visit Lisbon in?

Here’s the truth about honeymoon planning: you can totally do it yourself using online resources, but the real question is... Do you want to? I love that part of my Honeymoon Planning Services is gifting my clients back their time by taking this item off of their wedding to-do checklist. So, what I’m trying to say is, treat yourself! Reclaim your time by letting me handle the finer details of the honeymoon so you can focus on the tasks you can’t delegate — like picking the perfect dress/suit, and deciding on the first dance song. The beauty is, we’d work collaboratively on the planning so you’re as involved as you’d like to be. Are you ready? Book your complimentary consultation today!

Top 3 Beaches on Vieques, PR
🏖️ Sun Bay Beach: This beach has a reputation for being crowded and touristy, BUT if you take a left down the gravel road right before the parking lot and follow it for about half a mile, you will find the most pristine, uncrowded section of the beach (perfect for your own personal paradise)!
🏖️ Playa Caracas: This beach is located in the National Wildlife Refuge and has the clearest, calmest water for snorkeling. Get ready to see huge schools of fish and even a stingray or two!
🏖️ Sea Glass Beach: Nestled right in the town of Isabel Segunda on the Atlantic side of the island, this small beach isn't famous for swimming but for the amount of sea glass that washes up on its shores. Come for the gorgeous sunset and take a walk, but keep your eyes peeled for the shiny, smooth sea glass!

Looking for an island getaway to add to your Puerto Rico vacation? Look no further than Vieques! Accessible by both ferry and (small) plane, it is 9 miles off the coast of mainland Puerto Rico and is a wonderful, slow-paced island where you can unwind. Free range (not wild) horses roam the beaches and roads, the Melacon is full of friendly restaurants serving a variety of American and Caribbean cuisine, and the brightest bioluminescent bay IN THE WORLD is here! Be sure to book a nighttime kayak tour with glass-bottomed kayaks for the full experience.

What is a Travel Consultation and why do I do them?
When you decide to travel, I bet you start to imagination what that destination will look, feel, sound, and smell like. You start dreaming of experiences you've seen online or heard about from your friends. There is a very specific ambience or vibe that you want to feel while you are there. And I want to help those dreams become reality! When I do Travel Consultations with my clients, we not only talk about the practical things (dates, budget, locations, etc.) but we also talk about things like:
✈️ What you want your hotel to feel like (classic luxury, cutting edge and modern, family-oriented)
✈️ Where you want to spend most of your time (in central areas near the tourist attractions, or in an off-the-beaten-path neighborhood for a more local cultural immersive experience)
✈️ How you want to feel (is this a relax by the pool/beach and read your book vacation, or do you want to flop into bed every night after a full day of exploring and learning)?
✈️ We also discuss specific pain points around travel and what makes you the most anxious about traveling, so that I can work to alleviate that anxiety and pay special attention to those areas in my planning.
Looking for a travel experience that is tailored specifically to you? Send me a DM and we can set up your FREE Travel Consultation!

When you're busy dreaming about your upcoming vacation, the last thing you want to think about is trip insurance - but I believe it is vital, especially for international travel! I always recommend my clients have some form of travel insurance, whether it's through their credit card or one of my trusted insurance providers. Has travel insurance ever come in handy for you? Tell me about it in the comments!

The trip begins when you leave for the airport, but the prep begins far before then!
Don’t underestimate the power of delegating.
👉 My clients never spend hours and hours down the internet wormhole looking for travel advice
👉They never spend hours on hold when flights change, and things get canceled
👉 And they never stress about their trips — they know I’m a call away
But for my clients, it’s all ease and no stress.
They delegate all of that coordinating, research, and planning of their travel to me so they truly can show up at the airport and kick off that trip with full confidence and maximum levels of excitement!
Airport wait times and lost baggage can be stressful, but the travel planning process doesn’t have to be. Give me a shout when you’re ready! Check out my website at www.adamstraveldesigns.com or send me a DM.
