Best vacation ever and why?
5
Im going to Fukuoka Japan on business next month (staying in Hakata Station area) and will spend the preceeding and following weekends exploring on my own. Im looking for any advice on local sightseeing destinations. Also interested in any recommendations for good sushi restaurants and local cuisine.
Safari during the great migration in Kenya / Tanzania. Every vacation I go on for the rest of my life will be compared to that, and the chances anything eclipses it are next to zero.
I'm considering a trip like this for July/August. Any tips, recs?
Boracay, Philippines -quintessential world class beach and friendly people.
This!!!
I’ll start. Mediterranean cruise with my daughter as her graduation present. Taking glass blowing class in Murano was just one of many great experiences together
Japan, with a final stop at the Park Hyatt Hanazono to ski in Niseko. Incredible food, amazing culture, and my boyfriend and I love skiing. We loved it so much we’re going it again next year
That Park Hyatt is awesome - and the heated boot racks needs to be a thing in America
Circled the globe in 21 days over a milestone anniversary, covering 1 country and 1 city each in all 5 habitable continents. NY > Santiago and Valpareso in Chile (South America) > Melbourne, Australia (Oceania) > Siam Reap, Cambodia (Asia) > Cairo, Egypt (Africa) > Malta (Europe) > NY
Which tour company did you use?
Siem Reap in Cambodia. Loved Angkor Wat but loved the small town vibe of the city itself even more. The chilled style and friendly locals were exactly my style.
Hiking on a Glacier in Iceland.
That was a good one!
Antarctica cruise with National Geographic/Lindblad. I’ve certainly never been anti-environment, but that trip changed the way I see the earth and our role on it. Safari in Tanzania was a strong second for the same reason.
I went to Antarctica with G Adventures in 2024. Did polar camping, two polar plunges, and loved seeing baby penguin chicks and 2 types of seals and whales. Definitely an experience to remember! I'm considering a Tanzania/Kenya trip for July/August. Any tips, recs?
Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu in Peru
Walking on the Great Wall of China and visiting the Forbidden City were breathtaking.
Puerto Rico. Culebra island. Crystal clear beaches. Fresh food. Boat rentals. Just treat the island with respect. ❤️
