"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all."

ADVENTURE

ADVENTURE TRAVEL CAN INCORPORATE A DIVERSE ARRAY OF LOCATIONS AND ACTIVITIES, BUT AT ITS CORE IT'S ABOUT PUSHING YOUR LIMITS AND LEAVING YOUR COMFORT ZONE.  HERE ARE SOME SUGGESTIONS OF ADVENTURE DESTINATIONS!

UTAH

Utah is a wonderland of outrageously beautiful landscapes. Boasting five national parks and many more state parks it’s the perfect adventure destination for any skill level adventurer from families with small children to extreme outdoorsmen. Skiing, rock climbing, canyoneering and of course hiking are just the beginning of all the adventures that await travelers to Utah.

Zion
Iceland Waterfall

ICELAND

Iceland has been a favorite destination of mine for many years. The otherworldly landscape holds a plethora of treasures for an action-packed trip. Volcanos and glaciers, waterfalls and lava fields this land of fire and ice is filled with adventure for everyone. Iceland also boasts a deep and rich culture with legends of Vikings and trolls further feeding your imagination.

BEACHES

BEACHES ARE A CLASSIC VACATION DESTINATION, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE SEEKING SUN IN THE COLD, WINTER MONTHS.  WE PLAN BEACH VACATIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD, EITHER AS A STAND-ALONE RELAXING STAY IN THE SUN OR AS PART OF A MORE DIVERSE VACATION.

THE CARIBBEAN

From cruises to all inclusive resorts, traditional seaside inns or vacations rentals the Caribbean has a multitude of options for everyone. Glitzy islands like St. Bart’s contrast sharply with laid back Martinique or St. John. For a quieter time head to one of the smaller British Virgin Islands or if you prefer dance late into the night on Jamaica. Better yet consider a cruise that visits many of these islands.

Hawaii

HAWAII

Hawaii is the quintessential island paradise. With stunning beaches, tropical forests, towering volcanos and teeming with history and culture these islands are an amazing destination. With the most isolated population on earth Hawaii is unique and exotic and the perfect place to experience something new and wonderful.

SPAIN

Europe has a wide variety of beach destinations with Spain at the top of the list. If you are yearning for a little European culture with lots of sunshine then the coasts of Spain will have something for you. A resort on the coast or the city beaches of Barcelona are all great ways to enjoy a little bit of everything.

OFF THE BEATEN PATH

FOR THE EXPERIENCED OR MORE INTREPID TRAVELER I TRULY ENJOY PLANNING TRIPS TO PLACES WITH VASTLY DIFFERENT CULTURES, FEWER TOURISTS OR SIGNIFICANT LANGUAGE BARRIERS.  THOUGH THESE VACATIONS (OR FIELD TRIPS AS MY KIDS CALL THEM) CAN PRESENT MORE CHALLENGES TO THE TRAVELER THEY ALSO OFFER FAR MORE REWARDS IN TERMS OF UNDERSTANDING OUR WORLD AND PERSONAL GROWTH!

INDIA

India is a place like no other place I have ever been.  There is so much contrast in the culture of India.  Crumbling facades of the colonial past stare down on overcrowded modern chaos.  The spicy sweet smells of exotic street foods mixing with the soft perfume of fragrant flowers on colorful shrines will leave you yearning for more.

India
Turkey

TURKEY

Turkey is a beautiful country with gorgeous countryside and incredible historical sites. The ancient city of Ephesus will leave you speechless as it’s so well preserved you feel as if you are walking back in time. As a crossroads between east and west Istanbul boasts a plethora of historical and religious sites. Islam and Christianity meet face to face in the Hagia Sofia where you can see the historical tug of war layered upon the frescos and tile work. Another real gem in Istanbul is Hammurabi’s Code which you can see tucked away in an obscure display at the archaeological museum.

HONG KONG

Hong Kong is a large bustling metropolis where old and new coexist. Ultra modern skyscrapers of Central Hong Kong and super efficient public transport make this a great city to visit. Hong Kong is much more than a modern city though. From the vibrant art, shopping and entertainment district of Kowloon to the traditional island of Lantau with the Big Buddha and Tai O fishing village Hong Kong is a diverse destination. As an unexpected surprise Hong Kong also has great hiking and beaches too!

Hong Kong
Surf on Martinique

MARTINIQUE

The Caribbean as a whole is extremely tourist friendly, but Martinique is still largely underdeveloped and wild. A popular destination for French tourists the island is relatively new on the radar of Americans so English is not widely spoken. It’s teeming with fantastic hiking trails, delicious food, and wild beaches.

CRUISES

CRUISES OFFER AN EFFICIENT WAY TO SEE MANY DIFFERENT LOCATIONS ON A SINGLE TRIP, ALL WHILE ENJOYING RESORT LIKE AMENITIES ON BOARD.  THERE ARE ENDLESS VARIETY OF ITINERARIES THAT THERE IS CERTAINLY SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.  SOME OF MY FAVORITES ARE LISTED HERE.

PANAMA CANAL

A Panama Canal cruise boasts a variety of ports and activities.  Relax on beautiful beaches, marvel at the brilliance of human ingenuity as you pass through the canal and enjoy the natural wonders and biodiversity of a rainforest hike.  This is the perfect itinerary for a diverse group of travelers or for those who simply want to try a little bit of everything.

Panama Canal
Gibraltar

TRANSATLANTIC

A transatlantic cruise is a great ocean voyage usually capped on either end by the charms of European ports and the tranquility of Caribbean beaches or the glitz of New York City. It gives you a variety of port calls with a nice stretch of at sea days allowing you to enjoy the ship and relax a bit. For families a transatlantic is an awesome tool to help kids visualize the vastness of the ocean and understand the courage of the great explorers. As a repositioning trip transatlantic cruises are also a great option for the budget conscious offering some of the lowest daily rates of any cruise itinerary

MEDITERRANEAN

History and culture come alive in the variety of Mediterranean cruise ports. Fantastic food, awesome folkloric shows, awe inspiring ruins, and picturesque villages are all the hallmarks of the Med.
