Living in the lap of luxury
IS SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DREAM ABOUT EXPERIENCING.
If your finances don’t allow for you to bask in the finer things every day, traveling
can be a chance for you and your special someone to treat yourselves. Extraordinary
romantic getaways aren’t just about champagne upon arrival and a mint on your
pillow. Luxury is the over-the-top experiences, attention to every detail, and fulfilled
14 requests that please every one of your senses.BUCKET LIST Destinations
Where do you go when you’ve already been to the
world’s best beaches? Out-of-the-box destinations have
the best photo ops and even better memories. From an
African safari to your own private villa, going somewhere
few of your friends have traveled can be the perfect next
chapter to your love story. Your travel advisor can share
insider knowledge of private excursions and hidden- gem
restaurants to help you avoid being surrounded by tourists.
NEXT-LEVEL Spa Days
One of the most popular ways for couples to relax and
unwind is a visit to the spa. Pampering yourselves with a
couple’s massage is a great choice, but why not elevate
your experience? Nothing is more serene than feeling
the ocean breeze and hearing the waves as you enjoy
a beachfront massage. Taking a pause from your time
together with separate appointments for hair, nail, and
skin treatments after your massage will help to build the
anticipation for a romantic dinner date.S AY Y E S T O Special Requests
Cookie-cutter is not in the luxury vocabulary. Have a
drink of choice? Your travel advisor can ensure the
resort or destination you choose is equipped and ready
to serve you. Do you prefer one type of quality bedding
over another? Every attention to detail can be arranged
ahead of time to ensure the level of service exceeds
your expectations.
NO OCCASION Necessary
Honeymoons and anniversaries are the perfect
reasons to enjoy extra time alone. Destination weddings
present even more opportunities to make you feel like
royalty on the most special day of your lives. Whether
you’re celebrating a milestone moment or just enjoying
your time together, your travel advisor can arrange for
extra amenities, personalized decor, and fully stocked
private transfers by land, air, or sea.

the World Through Travel
… W H I L E AT H O M EEncouraging children to become citizens of the world through an understanding
and appreciation of other countries and cultures is one of the greatest gifts families
can bestow upon their little ones. While firsthand experience is the most rewarding
way to immerse ourselves, when travel is not possible, you can still create interesting
learning experiences at home.
Bring different countries and new cultures into your home with these simple ideas
and resources to prepare for your next family adventure!
T H E D E S T I N AT I O N : Mexico
Approximately 2,400 years ago, the Maya Indians settled in
the Yucatan Peninsula. Their amazing talent for building is
shown through the hundreds of beautiful cities and roads they
created throughout the region. No one knows why the Maya
disappeared, but they have left behind incredible ruins worthy
of a visit when traveling to Cancun and Riviera Maya.
BRING THE EXPERIENCE HOME
➤ Explore Chichen Itza with National Geographic Kids.
➤ Learn about masks of the Maya and make a few of
your own. Younger children might enjoy coloring a
mask using this template.
29T H E D E S T I N AT I O N : Ireland
While Ireland is known for its castles, pubs, and enchanting
music, the lush and captivating Emerald Isle is also the
birthplace of limericks. Limericks are a fun way to introduce
children to rhymes and poetry while celebrating Ireland.

poetry slam!
30T H E D E S T I N AT I O N : Germany

31T H E D E S T I N AT I O N : England
Originating among the aristocrats in the 1840s, afternoon
tea was served to stave off hunger and thirst in the long
afternoon hours until dinner was served at 7:30 pm or later.
It is a tradition still enjoyed today. An afternoon tea menu
includes dainty finger sandwiches, scones with clotted
cream and preserves, and assorted cakes and pastries.
BRING THE EXPERIENCE HOME
➤Introduce your children to afternoon tea on a
Saturday afternoon.
➤ Dress up, brush up on your best manners, use the
fine china, and perhaps spark a new family tradition.
T H E D E S T I N AT I O N : Italy
Italy is among the top foodie hot spots. To prepare for a
visit to Italy with the children, why not plan an amazing
themed dinner?
BRING THE EXPERIENCE HOME

prepare a delicious meal, such as a steaming pot of
Pasta e Fagioli served with fresh baked bread.
➤ After dinner, settle in with a stack of children’s books
to take a literary journey to the magical country.
