Visiting New England during the fall, zipping through the four states of Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and viewing beautiful autumn foliage has always been on my bucket list.
After checking different trips that our company offers, my friend Dori and I chose Autumn Colors with Trafalgar. Traveling with her and other Trafalgar clients on the motorcoach through this part of the country was a wonderful experience.
“New life goal: do everything”. I saw this on the G Adventures website a few years ago, and I thought to myself…What a great idea! I can see the world or I can hike, bike, trek and multisport my way through it. And this is how I caught the Active Travel Bug.
“Greetings from the Roof of Africa!”
This was the first message that I sent to my friends after reaching the top of Kilimanjaro and it perfectly sums up this truly wonderful experience that will stay with me and my husband for a lifetime.
“Kia Ora! Welcome to New Zealand!” When I saw this welcome sign at Auckland airport, I realized that one of my dreams had just come true. It took us a few weeks to plan and find the best option for this trip. We didn’t want the hectic, constantly on-the-go tour. We wanted to have a lot of free time, but we also wanted to have some private, guided tours, that would give us VIP access to all the must- see sights without waiting for hours in lines, included. We preferred to eat lunches and dinners when and where we wanted. We also didn’t feel like spending hours on the internet trying to find the perfect hotels, arrange our flights, transfers from the airport and transportation between the cities.
