If you’ve ever traveled on your own, you’ll definitely get a laugh from Globus’ new video 🤣

But it also makes you think about just how much goes into traveling somewhere new.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with traveling independently. In fact, it can be a great way to experience a destination, and it’s one of my favorite types of travel to plan for clients​!

But guided touring offers a different kind of travel experience.

With a guided tour, you have experts by your side who know the destination and help take care of the logistics along the way.

That’s one of the things I love about guided group travel. You can still experience a destination and have time to explore, but you don’t have to figure out every little detail of getting from one place to the next.

One of my colleagues is hosting an Elevated Escapes journey to Italy with Globus in 2027, and I know travelers who join her are going to be in good hands. You’ll have the support of a guided Globus journey while experiencing Italy alongside a group of fellow travelers.

If Italy is on your list for 2027 and you’re curious about this ​t​rip, send me a message and I’d be happy to share the details.

Sometimes it’s nice to simply show up and enjoy the journey 🧡

A little client travel recap ✈️

My clients have recently wrapped up some incredible trips from cruising with Virgin Voyages to exploring Nepal, to relaxing at all-inclusive resorts in the Dominican Republic, and enjoying national park adventures.

I love the variety of experiences they come home from, each one completely different but all thoughtfully planned around how they want to experience the world!

Here is a little look at where they have been recently 💚

A little Iceland update 🇮🇸

Last week, full details for our Trail Spice Travel Iceland 2027 group trip were officially released to those on the waitlist!

This experience has been in the works behind the scenes for quite some time, so it has been incredibly exciting to finally start sharing it with people. I truly think this is going to be such a special adventure, not only because of the destination itself, but because of the people who will experience it together 🧡

Thank you to everyone who has already joined the waitlist and reached out with questions!

And if you’ve been following along and are interested in learning more, it’s not too late to join the waitlist. Waitlist members will receive the details before the trip is officially announced to the public later this summer.

I can’t wait to share more in the coming weeks. In the meantime, if you’ve received the details, don’t be shy! Reach out with any questions and let’s connect. I’d love to hear what has you most excited about this adventure ✨

Last week, I attended the Lomas Hospitality and Lomas Travel seminar in Kansas City!

A big thank you to Lomas Hospitality and Lomas Travel for such an incredible training focused on their resorts throughout Mexico, transfer services, and guest experiences 🇲🇽

As a travel advisor, I am constantly learning more about the destinations and experiences I recommend to clients. Trainings like this help me better understand the differences between resorts, destinations, and guest experiences, along with what truly makes each property unique.

It is always so helpful hearing directly from partners and gaining insights that allow me to better guide clients when planning their vacations.

I truly appreciate the invitation and continued partnership 🩵

Before you book that TikTok trip… Let’s Talk ✨

Social media is a great place to get inspired, but not every trending destination will match how you actually like to travel.

That is where a travel advisor comes in. With Trail Spice Travel, everything is built around you—your pace, your interests, and how you actually want to experience a destination.

The goal is not to follow what is trending. It is to create something that feels right for you from the very beginning 🧡
