๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Dreaming of a festive NYC holiday? โœจ

Kelly-Ann from House of Travel Lower Hutt recently got back from an epic holiday in the Big Apple and it was nothing short of magical! From sparkling holiday lights on Fifth Avenue to the roaring excitement at MetLife Stadium ๐Ÿˆ and cosy pedicab rides ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ through the city streets, her NYC trip was packed with holiday cheer and bucket-list moments!

๐Ÿ—ฝ Hereโ€™s what Kelly-Ann loved the most:

โ€ข Soaking in the beauty of the iconic Rockefeller Centre Christmas tree as ice skaters twirled beneath its twinkling lights.
โ€ข Strolling by Macyโ€™s enchanting holiday window displaysโ€”make NYC feel like a winter wonderland.
โ€ข Grabbing a coffee and walking through Central Park taking in all that is has on offer.
โ€ข Indulging in that classic New York-style pizza... yum! ๐Ÿ•

๐Ÿ’œ HOT Tip: Thinking about Europe? Kelly-Ann recommends NYC is one of the best stopover options with direct flights from NZ to JFK! Take your time to soak up NYCโ€™s festive vibes before continuing your journey, youโ€™ll thanks me later!

๐ŸŽ„โœจEver wondered whatโ€™s it like travelling to Europe at this time of year?

Suzanne & Dave from House of Travel The Square have just returned from a dreamy cruise journey aboard the Scenic Crystal, gliding from Nuremberg to Amsterdam. And yes, Europe at this time of year is MAGIC! Fewer crowds, magical Christmas markets, and festive cheer around every cornerโ€”what's not to love?

Spend your evenings wandering the Christmas Markets at dusk, with twinkling lights, music, roasted chestnuts, and Glรผhwein filling the air with festive cheer.

Hereโ€™s what Suzanne & Dave loved the most:

๐ŸŽ„ Trip Highlights:
- Strolling through Rothenburgโ€™s fairy-tale streets amongst falling snowflakes, twinkling Christmas lights and markets.
- Visiting medieval Bamberg, filled with holiday cheer, winding streets, and festive charm.

๐Ÿฐ Unique Experiences:
- A private tour of a Baronโ€™s castle near Miltenberg, featuring frescoes from the Crusades and incredible WWII history.
- A live glassblowing demo on board, creating beautiful Christmas baublesโ€”an unexpected treat!

๐Ÿ’œ HOT Tip: Winter in Europe? Yes, please! Suzanne & Dave recommend embracing the magical holiday atmosphere, with twinkling lights, festive markets, and charming, less crowded towns. ๐Ÿฅ‚

24/09/2024

๐ŸŒ Touring is the BEST Way to Travel ๐ŸšŒ

Imagine no google maps, no planning stress, and definitely no โ€œare we there yet?โ€ moments. Just comfy seats, great company, stunning views, and someone else doing all the planning for you. ๐Ÿ™Œ

๐ŸšŒ Why Globus Touring is a Game Changer:

- First-class access! โ€“ Youโ€™ll get to skip the lines at iconic landmarks and dive straight into the action. No waiting, just WOW moments. ๐Ÿ˜

- More time, more adventure! โ€“ Donโ€™t just see the Eiffel Tower, stroll through the park beneath it. Donโ€™t just visit Venice, take time to get lost in its charm. โณ

- Everythingโ€™s sorted โ€“ Accommodation, transportation, sightseeing, and a few meals? Done. Worry about deciding which gelato flavour to try first in Rome. ๐Ÿฆ

- Local gems, minus the FOMO โ€“ Youโ€™ll go to places only the locals know about. (Secret wine tasting in Tuscany? Yes, please! ๐Ÿท)

- New friends, new memories โ€“ Whether you're a solo traveller, a couple or with a group, you'll meet fellow adventurers, and who knows? You might just make lifelong friends along the way.

Dreaming of Celebrating a Milestone Birthday on the Shores of Nice?

Brydie from House of Travel Westport just got back from a very special holiday through Europe to celebrate her 30th birthday! ๐ŸŽ‰โœˆ๏ธ๐ŸŒ From London to Rome, Positano to Paris, and even a dreamy sunset on the beach in Nice, Brydieโ€™s journey was pure magic! ๐Ÿ–๏ธ

๐Ÿš€ Brydie's Top Tip: Travel to Europe in spring! ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿƒ "In September, European kids are back to school, the weather is mild and places are quieter," she says. Plus, it's the perfect time to snag great deals on flights and accommodation!

๐Ÿน Brydie's trip highlight: Soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of Nice and enjoying a dreamy sunset on the beach! ๐ŸŒ…๐Ÿน "Watching the sunset with a wine on the beach in the south of France was an unforgettable โ€˜pinch meโ€™ moment,". And make sure to go to the street markets in Nice!

๐Ÿ’ŽHIDDEN GEMS
- Donโ€™t miss the local ceramic shops in Positano
- Visit Waka Bar in Nice โ€“ NZ owned!
- Never go past a Hop on Hop Off Bus if it is an option. Itโ€™s a great way to see a city and listen to the history and you learn so much.
