Travel can be approached in various styles, each offering its unique experiences. Let's delve into the differences between FIT (Fully Independent Travel) travel, Independent Tours, and Escorted Tours:

FIT (Fully Independent Travel) Travel: is tailored to the individual or small group and involves customizing every aspect of the trip, including transportation, accommodations, excursions, and more. There's no fixed itinerary; travelers choose where they want to go and when. The journey is designed based on personal preferences, interests, and budgets.

Independent Tours: provide a basic structure, yet offers flexibility. You can decide when to start your day, which attractions to visit, and where to dine. You also get the advantage of local guides and their network, which means insider knowledge, hidden gems, and authentic experiences not always available to the general tourist. Even though it's an independent tour, the logistics like transportation, accommodations, and some activities are handled by our suppliers, allowing you to relax and enjoy the trip.

Escorted Tours: Travelers join a group, and the journey is led by a professional tour director or guide and follows a pre-set itinerary with planned activities, accommodations, and transportation. Most aspects of the trip – from hotels and meals to entrance fees and tours – are typically included in the package price. Escorted tours are ideal for those who prefer a hassle-free travel experience. The presence of a guide ensures insightful context, stories, and explanations, which can enhance the travel experience.

Working with me ensures finding the right fit for you! To learn more about different offers for each of these travel styles, reach out to me at [email protected].

A lot of thought and care needs to be put into planning a trip to Hawaii. Of course, that is why I recommend using a travel advisor (me)! During our discovery call we'll talk about-

✈️Do you want to stay on one island or island hop? As you’d imagine there are pros for each.

🏝What island fits your style? The most frequented islands are Oahu, Maui, Big Island of Hawaii, and Kauai. Each has a unique culture, history, landscape, vibe, and things to do. Think about what’s important to you, and I can help match you with the right one!

💸Have a budget. Your trip will likely have a lot of components – air, hotel, transportation, activities, food. Try to come into the planning process with a number in mind.

📅Getting it on the calendar. Flight(s) and hotel(s) are the most crucial part of the trip and need to be booked ASAP. Pricing for both is subject to change and are usually based on supply and demand. So, the earlier the better!

Hopefully these tidbits were helpful as you consider travel to Hawaii. I’ll help keep these things top of mind as we go into the planning process and certainly as you’re getting ready for the most exciting part – the trip itself!

I love helping families plan the magic of a first time visit!

Congratulations to the 'D' family as they prepare to take their first trip to Walt Disney World!🥳

Their kids are sure to love the larger than life characters during their stay at Art of Animation along with the 3 themed swimming pools! Not mention the ease of staying on property to take advantage of Disney's complimentary transportation and early admission to the parks.🥰

Working with families who want to experience the magic of walking down Main Street for the first time together is something I love. My expertise goes a long way by being knowledgeable of top attractions, height requirements, Genie +, character dining and more! So if you're ready to experience the magic of a Disney vacation reach out today! 🙌

Wellness Travel- it's so much more than a yoga retreat!

From reconnecting with nature in a new place to
- a digital detox where you get lost in a book
- fueling your body properly with foods using locally sourced ingredients
- incredible spa treatments that leave you feeling rejuvenated
- and much MORE!

Travel focused on wellness can do wonders to the body and mind. So why not make your new fitness goal: RUN out of pages in my passport!😉

Pop quiz: What is one of the most romantic things you can experience in Italy?

Answer: A sunset gondola ride through Venice!

Is Italy on your travel list for 2024? It's definitely on ours! Even though a romantic gondola ride is unlikely with kiddos in tow we have plans to learn to row like a Venetian!

Whether looking for a romantic getaway or a family trip- Italy is a great destination!

Books📚-
Not everyone thinks of them as a travel necessity but I do! If you're like me, being able to dive into a good book at the airport or in the car is a part of vacation I look forward to! Incase you're on the hunt for your next book to read while traveling I thought I'd share some of my recent favorites from the last year:

- The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue
- Greenlights
- The Push
- Verity
- Book Lovers
- The Midnight Library
- A Court of Thorns and Roses (series)
- Lessons in Chemistry
- The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
- Neon Gods
- Fourth Wing

Have you read any of these titles? Did you like them? Have any suggestions for what I should read next? Drop it in the comments!

Traveling with our kids is not a vacation in our book but rather we look at it as quality time spent together where we share experiences with them to build life long memories! However, there are some travel tips we have learned along the way to make traveling together more enjoyable for everyone!

- Book accommodations with separate sleeping areas to give the adults a break and the kids the rest they need. 😴
- Make reservations- whether for dining or tours, less waiting is always best with kids!
- Rent equipment- stroller rentals, beach chairs and sand toys can be rented just about anywhere
- Get proper travel insurance- if you've seen any of my previous posts you know my kiddos like to try out Urgent Care when we travel. 😷
- Travel with electronics- just incase you didn't get those reservations 😉
- Choose the right destination- I can help with this!
- Slow Down! Always be sure to build in down time, whether for naps, snack breaks, or just a break from being on the go! You will all be much happier!

14/06/2023

It's official! Spring Break 2024 will be Italy! 🤩

I will be sure to keep you posted as we visit Venice, Florence and Rome with our kiddos (11, 9 and 6)!

Trips like this are what help me gain first hand knowledge of how to help you plan your European escapes! Whether you're traveling with children, as a couple or even solo I'm always trying out properties and vendors to guarantee my clients have the best experience! 🙌

Where do you want to travel to in 2024?
