Traveling for Couples

If you're looking to surprise that special person in your life with a vacation, it will take creativity, and organization. It is possible to keep this surprise until the last minute, don't panic! It's always a good idea to discuss different travel destinations with your partner so that you know how they would feel. When planning secret getaways, you must keep in mind most importantly time constraints! Time constraints can make or break your getaway, beware. If you're making plans to travel abroad, please make sure that both of you have the appropriate travel documents (passports, visas, birth certificate, etc.) I will detail great locations that would be great to travel during anytime of year.

If you're looking to travel through California through the spring, it's a great time to travel. If you have 1 week to travel, I would strongly recommend taking a trip beginning in Sacramento, visit Gold Rush Country and enjoy a nice drive down to Los Angeles. Some places of interest would include some of California's historic missions on Junipero Serra Blvd. During your stay in Northern California, it would be worth while to visit the beautiful vineyards of Napa Valley. San Francisco is a favorite tourist destination for everyone, you can enjoy a bit of history while making new discoveries. I would definitely recommend taking a trip to Alcatraz, riding the ferry to Salinas, and enjoy the romance of "Little Italy', and the diversity of the "The Mission." There's no place like "The City of Angeles." The in wonderful city of Los Angeles there's something for everyone. There's a beautiful blend of culture and glamour. Some points of interest would include The Beverly Center and the Hollywood and Highland Complex. These are two of the best shopping malls in the city, and they're definitely one of a kind. The Beverly Center is the melting pot of everything that's current, that's why so many celebrities love to shop there. At the Hollywood and Highland Complex, you can enjoy your shopping experience, and take a walk downstairs and look at Shirley Temple's Footprints, and Susan Lucci's star. Other notable landmarks at the Hollywood & Highland Complex include Grauman's Chinese Theatre and The Kodak Theatre. If you're around the Los Angeles Area Oscar weekend, you can "walk the red carpet."

If you're looking to experience more excitement than culture on a vacation, I would strongly recommend traveling to the Silver State, Nevada. If you drive through the state of Nevada for the most part you will notice there's lots of open land. Reno and Las Vegas is where all of the action is. The city of Reno is definitely centered on the gaming industry. You will find slot machines everywhere imaginable. Each casino offers a different experience, and if you choose to stay you will find the rates to be quite affordable. A personal favorite is The Peppermill; it's a comfortable atmosphere for everyone. You will find a wide range of food to indulge in, and what else but casino games galore. The rooms in this hotel are top notch, and if you want to splurge a tiny bit investing in a suite wouldn't be a bad idea. In this hotel there are even themed suites available!

If glamour is what you're looking for, Las Vegas should be next on your list! There are endless possibilities in Las Vegas. You can enjoy a great vacation on a budget, or consider being a high roller and stay in great suites in places such as Cesar's Palace with celebrity royalty. If you want to enjoy all of the action make sure you stay on the strip of Las Vegas Blvd, you can't miss it. Some highly recommended hotels are The Venetian, Monte Carlo, Bellagio, Luxor, and New York, New York. At the hotels, the amenities are to die for! Throughout Las Vegas you can find many ways to entertain yourself. There are concerts, shows, and many casino games throughout the city. Las Vegas is also a very desirable destination for couples, singles, and families.
