Have you heard about this new UK “Visa”? Here’s what you need to know! 👇

-It isn’t quite a visa - it’s an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) which attaches electronically to your passport

-You can apply by downloading the “UK ETA” app or going to the website. When you apply, you’ll need to take a photo of your passport, scan your face (if 10 or older), take a photo of yourself, fill out your address, job, and criminal history, and then pay a £10 application fee.

-You’ll receive an answer within 3 business days and then you can delete the app.

-All travelers need to apply even children and babies. But you can fill out the application for more than one traveler.

-The confirmation will arrive via email and automatically connect to your passport

-You can use the ETA for multiple entries and stays up to 6 months

-The authorization is valid for 2 years or until your passport expires.

Do you have any questions about the ETA? We’re here to help!

We are working on a very cool trip this week. Clients who have never left the country are going to be attending their son's wedding in Rome in March.

We're going to make sure they get into the Vatican, the Colosseum, the Catacombs, etc. and hit all the Rome highlights.

But they also want to extend the trip by a few days and see "something else" that's close to Rome (no more than an hour or so away) and offers a more relaxed, scenic atmosphere and a more local vibe. Time to get creative!

We are looking at:

* Lake Bracciano - for medieval towns, a castle, and lakefront walks
* Orvieto - for a quintessential hill town, and Umbrian cuisine
* Sperlonga and Santa Marinella - for an off-season coastal vibe

Which would you choose?

We're doing our end-of-year look at last year's trips, and it's no surprise to anyone that Italy was by far the biggest destination for our clients. We helped a LOT of people get their first taste of "la dolce vita". For others, where it was their second/third/fourth visit to Italy, we showed them where to dig deeper and spend more time, uncover hidden gems, and discover even more things to love about the country.

Looking ahead to 2025, Italy is still trending very strong for our clients, despite all the warnings about "Jubilee Year" crowds. We are helping them plan ahead to avoid the most congested dates in Rome, and suggesting visits to quieter parts of the country, like Sicily, Sardinia and Puglia.

If Italy is in your plans, please let us help!

Ann loves to travel, and it's almost always international. She thinks nothing of jumping on an 8, 10, or 12 hour flight to some faraway destination. But there is a time and a place for a classic, simple, beach vacation with your family. This year she planned a one-week beach rental in Virginia Beach with her entire extended family (22 people) to celebrate her mother's 80th birthday. There were kids, grandkids, boyfriends, girlfriends, and even a family dog. They cooked big meals, drank lots of cold beverages, kayaked, swam, played board games, and re-connected in ways they haven't done in years. This photo of the sunset from their deck reminds her that it's the simplest pleasures in life that mean the most.

You need more than a destination in mind when you start planning your dream vacation. Knowing what your travel goals are or what kind of trip you want to take will help you narrow down the destination and consider some hidden-gem destinations you may not have thought of before!

Liz only had one day on the Thai Island of Koh Samui in 2018, and she made the most of it with a private tour that included snorkeling, a traditional Long-Tail boat, and a private beach picnic!

Island Gem Tours offer several different packages but what really caught her eye was the flexible times. Perfect for those with a tighter schedule, or particular timing needs! The whole experience was delightful and she can’t wait to send clients on this incredible adventure.

Who doesn’t love a sundowner? If you travel to South Africa for a safari you may get to enjoy this classic South African version of the Italian aperitivo!

Just as the sun is starting to set, you’ll head to a beautiful viewpoint to watch the sun go down….sun-down-er…

You’ll enjoy drinks like wine, hard cider, or a crisp and classic gin and tonic. And might have small snacks like chips or biltong (South African beef jerkey). You’ll bask in the beauty of the sunset while chatting with your friends. And once the sun has set you’ll head back to home base for dinner! The perfect ending to any day in South Africa.

Most people think about making it a special night and going to those famous restaurants for dinner - but if you can’t get a dinner reservation, a lunch reservation will be just as delicious!

Sicily is such a unique place - it merits its own adventure! The island is quite large and because it’s at the very bottom of the boot, many people don’t have time to “fit it in” with a trip to mainland Italy (especially if you’re also seeing places like Florence or Venice).

This underrated gem contains many worlds worth exploring!

Some of Nikki’s favorite views in Ireland? Along the stunning coast!

This includes the Causeway Coast in Northern Ireland, and the Wild Atlantic Way on the West Coast of the Republic of Ireland, which, at over 1600 miles long, is one of the longest defined coastal routes in the world!
