Have you blinked and realized it’s already spring—but you haven’t planned a single trip yet? Don’t worry—you still have time to turn 2025 into the year you finally check off your travel dreams. Whether it’s cruising the Mediterranean, catching the Northern Lights, or exploring some of the world’s best theme parks, here are the top 10 trips you won’t want to miss this year.

If you're looking for cruise vacation packages, all-inclusive resort deals, or help with Disney vacation planning, you're in the right place. Let’s get planning!

 

1. A Mediterranean Cruise You’ll Never Forget

Picture this: You’re sipping espresso in Italy, exploring ancient ruins in Greece, and by sunset, you're enjoying wine in Santorini. A Mediterranean cruise lets you visit multiple countries without unpacking more than once. Fall is a great time to go—fewer crowds, cooler weather, and better prices.

Budget: Starting at $2,500 per person for a 7-night cruise with excursions and meals included.

Pro Tip: Book 6 months in advance for the best prices and availability.

 

2. Overwater Bungalow in the Maldives

Imagine: Waking up in your overwater bungalow, the floor beneath you completely clear, letting you watch fish swim by as you sip your morning coffee. The Maldives is everything you’ve seen in those Instagram posts, and it’s just as magical in real life.

Budget: Expect to pay $4,000+ for 3–4 nights, depending on the resort and season. But all inclusive resort deals are available if you plan ahead.

Exclusive Packages: Let us take care of the extras like floating breakfasts or private spa experiences—your relaxation is our priority.

 

3. U.S. National Parks Road Trip

There’s so much to explore right in our own backyard! Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon, Yosemite—each one is jaw-dropping in its own way. Whether you're on a family road trip or heading out with a group, we’ll help set up group travel packages to make it easy. You’ll have access to the best hotels, park entry passes, and scenic routes.

Budget: $1,500 per person for a 7-day road trip, including park entries and accommodations.

Pro Tip: Summer months are crowded; consider planning your trip for early fall when the weather is perfect and crowds are thinner.

 

4. Hawaii Island-Hopping

Why choose one island when you can explore them all? Start on Oahu for city vibes and history, then hop over to Maui for stunning waterfalls, and finish on the Big Island hiking volcano trails.

Budget: Starting around $3,000 per person for flights, hotel stays, and inter-island travel.

 

5. A Foodie Festival Tour Through Europe

If you love food, Europe is the place to be. From Oktoberfest in Germany to truffle season in Italy and wine harvests in France, there’s no shortage of culinary festivals. Our travel concierge service can handle all the bookings—from tickets to transportation to private food tours. It’s a foodie’s dream come true!

Budget: $2,000+ depending on the festivals, dining experiences, and travel distances between cities.

 

6. Northern Lights Adventure

Seeing the aurora in person is an experience you’ll never forget. Imagine you’re bundled up in a glass igloo in Finland, a warm drink in hand, as green waves of the Northern Lights dance across the sky.

Budget: Starting around $2,000 for a 3-4 day stay, including excursions and meals.

Exclusive Package: Our exclusive travel packages ensure you don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

 

7. Safari + Wine in South Africa

This adventure is for both nature lovers and wine enthusiasts. Start with morning game drives spotting lions and elephants, then spend your afternoons sipping wine in the Cape Winelands. We can organize everything, from luxury safari lodges to private wine tastings.

Budget: Around $5,000 per person for a 7-day safari and wine tour, including lodging and meals.

 

8. Amazon River Cruise

If you're craving something off-the-beaten-path, try an Amazon River cruise. The wildlife is unlike anything you’ve seen before, and you'll have the chance to visit small villages only accessible by river.

Budget: Starting at $3,000 for a 7-day cruise with excursions.

What We Handle: We’ll book all the logistics—visas, transfers, and pre/post stays in Peru or Brazil.

 

9. A Three-City World Tour: NYC, Paris, Tokyo

This whirlwind trip is perfect for those who want to see it all. Begin in the buzzing streets of New York, then stroll through Paris with croissants in hand, and end with a sushi dinner and city lights in Tokyo.

Budget: Starting around $4,000 for flights, hotels, and local transportation.

What We Offer: Our travel concierge service will help with everything from booking flights to recommending the best local experiences in each city.

 

10. Theme Parks + Caribbean Cruise Combo
