Here’s the inside scoop on where our clients are heading this summer—and why you might want to jump on board too:
1. Cruises, Cruises, and More Cruises
Cruising is back in a big way, and it’s not just mega two-week European itineraries (though we love those too). This summer, our travelers are all about shorter Caribbean cruises, especially with Disney Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean.
Disney cruises are pure magic: world-class entertainment, top-tier service, and dedicated spaces for every age group. Parents love the seamless balance of family time and grown-up relaxation (hello, adults-only pool deck and spa!).
Royal Caribbean brings the “wow” factor with high-adrenaline activities (surf simulators, zip lines, skydiving at sea, anyone?), plus elevated dining, kid-friendly programming, and luxury suite options that feel like a floating resort.
Bonus: shorter sailings (3-5 nights) mean you can fit in a vacation without maxing out your PTO. And with most cruises sailing from Florida, Texas, or the East Coast, it’s a breeze to get there.
2. Cape Cod’s Timeless Charm
Looking for an all-American summer escape? Say hello to Cape Cod. This coastal New England classic is all about slow mornings, sandy afternoons, and seafood dinners at sunset.
Think beach days with the kids, ice cream from a roadside stand, local farmers’ markets, and charming inns or rental homes steps from the water. Cape Cod is especially perfect for multigenerational trips because it’s easy to find something for everyone to do, from historic walking tours to kayaking and sailing.
Our clients love the combo of natural beauty, upscale dining, and a nostalgic summer feel, without needing a passport. (But make sure you have your Real ID if you’re flying in!)
3. Hawaii: Always a Good Idea
There’s never a bad time to visit Hawaii, but summer offers especially dreamy weather and the ultimate mix of adventure, beach time, and cultural experiences. And for families, honeymooners, and groups alike, it delivers every single time.
Maui remains a top pick for its balance of luxury resorts and outdoor activities, though clients are also loving Oahu for its vibrant energy, surf culture, and proximity to Pearl Harbor and Waikiki. For something more off the beaten path, the Big Island brings black sand beaches, lava fields, and stargazing on Mauna Kea.
And yes, we know the best resorts for every type of traveler, from romantic bungalows to family-friendly suites with killer views and top-notch kids’ clubs. We’ll gladly share all of our insider perks and secrets with you.
4. Bermuda: The Underrated Island Escape
If you’re dreaming of an island vacation but want to skip the longer flights, Bermuda is our best-kept secret. Just a couple of hours from the East Coast by plane, this island is full of refined charm, pink sand beaches, and British-meets-island vibes.
Our clients love Bermuda’s balance: upscale resorts, world-class golf, and picture-perfect harbors, without the crowds you’ll find in some Caribbean hotspots. Rent a moped to explore winding coastal roads, take a sunset catamaran cruise, or just kick back at the spa.
It’s the perfect pick for couples, girlfriend getaways, or anyone needing a beach break with a side of elegance.
5. A Sprinkle of Theme Parks
This summer, theme parks are a little quieter on the bookings front but still among our most popular trips. We’re still seeing interest in Disney World and Universal Orlando, especially from families with older kids or die-hard fans. The twist? Many are combining a few days at the parks with a relaxing resort stay or a cruise before or after.
It’s a great way to experience the magic (and thrills!) without burnout. Want VIP tour options, or the scoop on which hotels are actually worth the splurge? We’ve got you.
Well, there you have it – our top five most popular trips. If any of these destinations sparked your wanderlust, let’s get planning. Whether it’s an easy breezy Caribbean cruise or a dreamy week in Hawaii, we’ll make sure the whole thing is seamless, stress-free, and absolutely unforgettable.
