Scroll through to see their photo highlights: seeing the White Cliffs of Dover from the water, Orkney Island’s Standing Stones of Brodgar that date from 5000BC, and special surprises like bagpipes playing when coming ashore in Ullapool, Scotland. They report they’re having a lovely trip!

Kim & Brian are frequent Onward Travelers but love to cruise, too. Interested in traveling with Viking or already have a Viking boat journey booked? Reach out, we’re pleased to be your agent and offer our personalized services, at no cost to you.

It's the last night of a wonderful trip to Portugal!

This group was made up of travelers who have all been on multiple Onward tours (or are married to someone who has) and we had such a lovely week together! So many of these folks, who came from seven U.S. states, have become good friends already after meeting on past tours with us. It truly warms the heart, look how cute they are all lined up at Bom de Jesus monument in Braga, Portugal's northern Minho region 💖
Obrigada!

Spring Recap No. 2: Last month we had the pleasure of visiting The Czech Republic and Austria with a most convivial and special group! This group of travelers met on our Amalfi tour in May 2024 and quickly gelled into the Famiglia Amalfitana... they had an absolute blast together and then decided on the last night to do it again! So Kat planned a trip with them to two of the countries closest to her heart: The Czech Republic, where she lived for four years, and Austria, where she was an exchange student for half a year in high school.

In Prague, glorious Prague, we rode the metro and tram around, visiting the famous Prague Castle of course, an artist villa, a farmer's market, the opera, some of Kat's favorite cafes, and much more! We took day trips to Pilsen for the world's best b**r and the jewel of a town, Cesky Krumlov... then we made our way to the Austrian Danube Valley's striking Wachau w**e region where we met w**emakers, enjoyed ice cream sundaes and rode down the river on little wooden boats tasting the w**es of the vineyards as we passed them. We ended what was basically a week-long dinner party in the heart of Vienna, where after a final evening together many in the group stayed on to explore on their own. It was a truly lovely week full of exploration, laughing, cheersing, and building on the blocks of the friendships we'd started two years ago. Thanks for the great trip, Travel Fam, and can't wait to do it again!

Spring Recap #1: There are few places in the world that are more beautiful, or more touristed, than the Amalfi Coast. That's why we're so proud of our tour there: We take our travelers past the crowds and introduce them to our friends who we've been visiting for years, the families and real working people who have lived in this string of stunning seaside villages for generations. Life in Amalfi is beautiful, but it isn't always easy, and we are privileged to learn all about it. In April & May we took three groups of travelers to this very special place, here are a few of the photos. Grazie to all of you who joined us!

On Mother's Day Molly and Kat were so grateful to be together with our mom, Peggi, and grandmother, Winnie. It's absolutely never lost on us how lucky we are to have these enduring relationships with one another... it's all because of the precious little cooking school, The Cooking Cottage, that our crazy mom & grandmother (already a mom and a grandmother!!) opened in 1990 that we even thought to start our own business, Onward Travel! They taught us that if you have an idea, you should just do it! That's what life is all about.

The gratitude we want to share goes beyond just our fortunate family legacy: in our travels we've met all kinds of mothers and we have learned so much over conversations at dinner tables, on boats, on the minibus, strolling the streets... about love, strength, resilience, grief, what it means to be there for someone. Many of you have been there for us in a motherly way as we've shared our hearts with you. So to all the mothers, the lovers of others and nurturers, the inspiring women we've been so lucky to get to know - Happy (Belated) Mothers Day to you. You're so appreciated.
