St Thomas and the brother Island of St Johns is a wonderful travel destination for Couples Romance and Destination weddings as well as Honeymooners. The main reason is the US Virgin Islands has an uncomplicated process for couples who are US Citizens getting married and looking to choose the best Caribbean location. You can access the islands through direct flights with an up to 5 Starred locations at hotels and resorts. If you choose to cruise into the main cruise port, Charlotte Amalia Harbour, there are many major Cruise names with select itineraries to the Islands. Getting married in the US Virgin Islands is normally quite simple with a fee and an 8 day wait to pick up your license in person I advised all couples to check documents and information prior to any pending arrangements. The Major Cruise lines also provide an option to access the wedding packages to help with your planning. From cruising to a wedding destination or staying in the Virgin Islands, betrothed couples have enjoyed the ease of accessing the US Virgin Islands to get married!
Costa Rica, located in Central America, is one of the most diverse and rewarding destinations on the list of adventure travel and touring options. Upon arriving in Costa Rica, you will enjoy visiting the gorgeous historical city of San Jose with museums, local cultural theaters and shopping in the tropical style open market areas. To enhance your visit, you can opt in to spending the day on an escorted tour to visit the Arenal Volcano National Park. This active volcano erupted in 1968 changing the very landscape to what it is today and now the Volcano is in a resting mode since 2010. You can continue your grand venture up to the Canopy Skybridge above the tropical rain forest observing abundant wildlife on your stroll. For beach lovers you discover the most unique and stunning beaches with a choice of excursions to the Pacific Ocean or the Caribbean Sea. Whether you find yourself relaxing in a private spa resort with villas near the national parks or a five-star hotel with amenities, you will be surrounded by a “one-of-a-kind” scenic filled vacation. In conclusion, if you decide to plan a trip to Costa Rica be prepared to experience the immense culture, enticing shopping, local themed entertainment and many breathtaking adventures at every turn on the winding road.
My experience with Las Vegas, Nevada as a destination, has been nothing short of excitement, adventure, and 24 hours of nonstop entertainment choices. Most travelers are extremely impressed with the vast variety of activities that traveling to Las Vegas provides. When arriving on the "Strip", a 4.2-mile stretch on S. Las Vegas Blvd, you will find the major Hotels, Casinos and Entertainment located there. The Strip gives you a choice of accommodations from moderate to Luxury Hotels providing adult or family friendly location choices. In addition to the sites and scenes in Vegas, a traveler can easily expand their adventures by accessing day trips to places like the Hoover Dam or just over a 2hr drive you can view the Grand Canyon from on top of the glass at the “Grand Canyon West Skywalk" for unforgettable memories. Whether partaking in the Casino in Las Vegas, enjoying the nightclubs or fine dining, you will always be amazed at the atmosphere of entertainment and performers on every street corner. This is the only city I have seen a disclosure that reads "What goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas". As a romantic destination Vegas is the “Marriage Capital” of the USA, as well as, being known as a wedding and marriage destination worldwide. Making memories in Las Vegas will remain with you throughout your lifetime and will sure to be on your “future return trip” list.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, may be the fun and sun location you’re looking for! Whether you’re traveling for a Family Vacation, a beach-side Honeymoon or 18 rounds of the best fair-weather golf courses around, Myrtle Beach can offer you all these options and more. The Atlantic Ocean views can be experienced from many of the hotels scattered on the beach. They offer local culture and amenities from hotel dining, room service, fitness areas and generously oversized pools. While the family enjoys their water sports, the golfing family members have plenty of options to visit the many available golf courses. If you prefer cooler tee times check out the discounts on the sunset options for a quick nine holes. There is so much to do for every traveler from walking the beach at sunset, as a newly Married couple or enjoying the nightlife, for the young-spirited traveler, you can find the thrill of hopping around the lively night clubs in the beach area. Satisfying your need for the outdoors with art and nature, make sure to visit the nearby Brookgreen Gardens for a delightful stroll through a statue park. Myrtle Beach is a vacation with so much to explore that I’m sure you’ll be returning for your future to-do-list on the next trip.
When traveling to Florida, one destination that I’m sure will impress any traveler is Fort Lauderdale. This city was found in a popular 1960 beach movie “Where the Boys are” and became known as Florida’s “Spring Break Capital” but soon after developed into the more favorable image of Lauderdale as a tourist destination. Not surprisingly, it has also become one of the most popular beach resort areas in Florida. “Lauderdale” is also famed as the "Yachting Capital of the World," with more than 40,000 registered crafts waiting to sail. The city also names itself as being the "Venice of America" with more than 300 miles of navigable waterways. You will have no problem charting a private or group tour for sightseeing or a fishing venture. Fort Lauderdale boasts many theaters to visit, sightseeing opportunities and plenty of shopping. The city is not far from Miami just 24 miles north and is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the 2nd Seminole war. They were all named after Major William Lauderdale. If you look hard enough you might find the remnants of three of them as you tour about. As you can see, Fort Lauderdale has plenty to offer to travelers of all genres and spending at least 5days in this destination will be well rewarding.
From deciding to customize your own Itinerary or choose a group charter. New Zealand offers a land of immense wonders from Auckland in the North to Queenstown in the South. Adventures are waiting for you to discover on the stunning beaches, viewing volcanoes or learning the Maori culture! You will find yourself immersed in the unique landscape from viewing the Stratovolcanoes to cruising down the Milford Sound while taking in the cascading waterfalls and temperate rainforest. One of the most famous novels The Hobbit, was filmed in New Zealand. You will soon find the inspiring and awestriking landscape will put you into a movie of your own. Some travelers choose to self-drive taking in the countryside filled with sheep and unique wildlife at their own pace or join a chartered tour to gather every story that New Zealand has to offer. Whatever style of travel you settle on you will not be disappointed in visiting this land of unique and many surprises that put the 'New" in New Zealand.
Traveling to Greece you will find a county rich in fine dining and food beyond the continuous sights of the Mythology that will inspire all your senses. Greece is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. Athens only offers a culture filled with opportunities to dine rooftop while devouring a full view ot the Parthenon illuminated overhead. If that's not enough to satisfy your taste for history and couture you can walk up to Philopappos Hill for a picnic and still have time to enjoy a visit to a rooftop cocktail bar. Greece is unique and inviting and offer travelers of all ages a opportunity to walk, ride, tour through history like never before. It is highly recommended to at least spend 3 days in Athens before venturing out to areas like the Island of Hydra where there are no vehicles or the beach lover Islands of Paxos/Antipaxos, Milos to name just a few. With water abound Greece is a gorgeous place to stay and enjoy all your Euro Travel ventures whether by land or sea.

My husband and I were looking forward to planning a 36th Wedding Anniversary weekend getaway but unsure where we could go for a couple of nights not too far from home. We did not want to drive the whole weekend getting to and from our destination, so we reached out to Shari for some professional advice. Shari had a wonderful suggested of taking a train leaving from Sarnia, Ontario, Canada to Toronto. We were extremely excited to plan this trip as part of our celebration. Shari booked the trip on the Canadian Railroad with hotel accommodation with a spectacular view of Toronto from our room. We were near to all the main attractions in downtown Toronto including plenty of shopping nearby and a wide choice of local and international dining opportunities. We also enjoyed a ferry ride on Lake Ontario along with a tour of Casa Loma, the castle-style mansion in midtown. Not only did our trip go just as planned, as a pleasant surprise, Shari was also able to book limo transportation, compliments from our family! With a front door limo pick up along with the convenience of arriving directly at the train station, we did not have to drive at all during our celebration. It was the perfect trip, as well as, an enjoyable and relaxing break that we needing together! Working with Shari was the best decision we made to help make this trip memorable and we look forward to working with her on our future celebration destination.
"Thanks you for the review! I really enjoyed putting together this celebration for you and working with you family too! I look forward to speaking with you again on your next destination!"
We reached out to Shari to build us an unique itinerary in the Smokey Mountains in Tennessee. Due to our large family we were looking for accommodations where our family could all be comfortable. She recommended a cabin with the most beautiful view of the mountains and area wildlife. We were overjoyed to have the ability to have accommodation of 3 bedrooms with the kitchen access for meal prep. Most importantly the convenience of location to tour the area at our leisure along with our desire to visit Dollywood and the Smokey Mountain National Park. We will be giving Shari a call for her expertise on planning the next family trip in the future.

We truly enjoyed working with Shari planning our first Cruise! We settled on a Royal Caribbean Cruise with an Eastern Caribbean Itinerary. It was a breathtaking Cruise on one of the largest sailing ships at that time in the Caribbean! We enjoyed the variety of all the dining options, from casual to formal, along with the nightly live entertainment, a movie theater, plenty of onboard shopping deals and visiting the ship casino. We had plenty of deck space to relax together, we spent time casually walking about and swimming at the pool. Shari suggested the island excursions to get the most from our sailing adventure. We were able to tour by foot in San Juan, Puerto Rico with open air markets and a visit to the historical Castille San Felipe del Moore fortress. During our stop in St Thomas, we had time to travel by a smaller boat to St John the neighbor US Virgin Island and tour the secluded lush tropical scenery and view the many sunny sand beaches along the way on a guided tour bus. We were thrilled to be able visit both the islands and still have time to return to the Ship before sailing off to the next destination. I’m so glad we took Shari’s recommendation of a cruise, and we look forward to reaching out to Shari for our next Cruising Vacation!
