The ✨magic✨ of Costa Rica 🇨🇷One of my favorite places to send families is Costa Rica. The adventures here will be stories your family will tell for years to come. I’ve taken 2 trips to Costa Rica recently, one with kids and one with adults. Each version is completely different and I’m happy I’ve toured so many properties to point clients in the right direction.

When you work with Travel Modern, we have a lot of important questions for our clients to get your Costa Rica adventure right:

- do you want a more authentic Costa Rican owned hotels or hotels that are US owned?

- What level of adventure is your family up for? Is there a fear of heights?

- Do you have animal lovers in your group?

- Beach/rainforest or both?

- Budget for travel 💸

Bookmark for your next Costa Rica adventure!

This week we are kicking off a Japan trip for a family of 4 as a graduation present 🇯🇵. While chatting with our client she had a lot of great questions, and I wanted to share some tips for planning Japan. I have travelled to Japan personally, and lived with a Japanese family while studying their language in college. Let me tell you there is a lot to know and understand about the culture! This is not the type of trip that you want to just wing it. Japan is safe and clean and a GREAT place to take children. From Sumo to Anime to the infamous gaming districts; this country is wonderful for kids. There is a major language barrier 😃

A few tips:
-Cherry blossom seasons is late March to early Arpil typically, and their peak season
-May is a great time to visit, except fo the first week which is a holiday.
- Always plan part of your stay in a Ryokan (a traditional Japanese inn)
-Prepare your tasatebuds (and definitely your children’s) for the wonderful and unusual tastes of Japanese food
-Manners- it is considered impolite to speak loudly in public places
- Shinkansen- take the world famous bullet train
- Get outside of the big cities! Get to know Japan by leaving Tokyo and Kyoto, trust me, you will see a completely different version of Japan!

As a culture, the Japanese are the kindest people. DM to begin your trip to Japan today!
