Dear Joyce,
How many times have we heard of those "last
minute" specials for travel? Being a past
auditor, I will from time to time check these
last minute rates as compared to rates if
reservations were made in advance - my
analysis has showed that over 90% of the time
travelers will benefit the most when they
make their reservations in advance.
This year I have found that there was an
increase in inquires regarding last minute
travel specials, which can be attributed to
the mass blitzes of advertising in the media.
Just open the newspaper, watch TV or get
online - you will see a litany of discounted
travel ads proclaiming to have the best
prices for various destinations. The call to
action with these ads is for you to travel.
It is through these highly successful
advertising campaigns that the travel
companies are hoping you will succumb to
their request to "travel."
It is our job as travel consultants to teach
our clients how to travel smartly. I highly
encourage everyone to try and book your
travel arrangements in the future so as to
get the best rates as well as securing the
most desirable properties. It is everyone's
goal in traveling to get the best value for
each and every travel experience.
It is our goal to help you become a savvy
traveler, experience the world the way you
want to, and to get the best value for each
getaway so as to save for your next
Incredible Journey.
| Bird watching in Costa Rica |
 |
Have you ever seen a toucan in the wild,
flying high amongst the tree canopies? How
'bout witnessing the splendor of the elusive
quetzal? Costa Rica is a must visit
destination for serious birdwatchers. Here
you can delight in the sounds of a great
diversity of birds' songs, trek on safaris
and marvel at these fascinating creatures way
of life, and watch flocks of parrots fly back
to their nests at sundown. Bird watching is
gaining in popularity throughout the world
and what better a destination to gaze at and
photograph these magnificent animals than
Costa Rica?

crafts can only be used from mid May to mid
December, why?

Heavenly Hana |
|
|
|
The only way to experience Hana is to stay in
Hana. The "road to Hana" is one of the top
tourist attractions on Maui, but to
experience the real deal one must stay at
least two days in this magical oasis to fully
enjoy the essence that is Hana.
Now, I am speaking from experience, as once
upon a time I used to live on Maui and
happily spent every free moment in this
verdant tropical paradise. I used to hike all
over the hills, explore various swimming
holes, go to Hasegawa general store and visit
the myriad of organic farms - and not much
has changed over the years, except the road.
