Today's grandparents are no longer content nesting at home! The baby boomers are a "get up and go" generation. Many boomers have discovered that traveling with their grandkids is one of the best ways to connect and make memories. Our very own Tony Huffman shares his seven tips for a successful "Skip-gen" travel experience.

Insider tips on three Brazilian gems you've never heard of by Huffman Travel Advisor Samantha Lanna.

We take our beaches very seriously at Huffman Travel. When it comes to sun-drenched days, stunning sunsets, amazing sealife for snorkeling and scuba, and powder white sand–it does not get much better than the Maldives. An archipelago of more than 1,000 islands in the Indian Ocean, it is one of those rare destinations where the dreams and visions evoked by websites and social media are indeed the reality.

My 13-year old twin sons, Sam and James, and I were looking for something fun and different to do for their winter break, and we came up with the idea of exploring northern Norway. Sleeping in an ice hotel for a night was what first drew us to Norway, but we had so many other great adventures that we decided it was one of the best trips we’ve taken.

When a client reaches out to us to ask for ultimate privacy, the most attentive service, and to experience unique moments with their entourage, we suggest chartering a yacht – if the destination allows, of course.

We put together a list of our team’s favorites yacht charter destinations in the world, and when we suggest you go.

Traveling is a privilege and we have been blessed with an abundance of it, so, when Tony and I started to talk about how to best celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary, the answer was clear: a trip! But not just any trip. This had to be the trip of all trips. Our dream was to take our entire family to Turkey, the country where we spent the first 5 years of our marriage; where Shawna learned to speak her first words (in Turkish); where Alexandra was born; where it all started.

True, our vision of France always includes Paris, the Riviera, Normandy, and macarons, but that’s not all there is! Be it for your first trip or tenth trip to France, we always love to suggest off-the-beaten-path areas that will make you fall for France even stronger.

Below are some of these unique destinations we hope you’ll discover with us.

We have scouted the country from the top of the boot to the tip of the toe for inspiring and unforgettable ways to make every trip impress itself forever on the minds and hearts of its guests. Here are just seven of our favorite Italian experiences. 

Costa Rica is a country overflowing with incredible national parks, gorgeous scenery, adrenaline-fueled adventures such as zip-lining, canyoning and rafting, and unique wildlife. Best of all, Costa Rica is easily accessible to visitors with few travel restrictions. I recently spent a week exploring this Central American gem and wanted to share my experiences to highlight why Costa Rica is a perfect destination to visit right now. 

The unprecedented events of 2020 have turned the trip of a lifetime into the trip you should take in the months ahead.

As excited as everyone is to close the 2020 chapter, it’s important to remember that this year gave us some unique opportunities to travel to new places and take advantage of fantastic rates, empty flights, and last-minute availability. This summer has been very successful with domestic trips and as the year comes to a close, we can slowly (and thoughtfully) travel abroad again and celebrate quality time with loved ones.

Did you know Uruguay is just across the water from Buenos Aires? I keep on going back to Buenos Aires and fall in love with Argentina a little more each time. But Buenos Aires is not the star of this piece, Uruguay is! 

Uruguay may be the second smallest country in South America, but it is one of its true gems. Very safe, economically stable, and relatively under the radar compared to neighbors Argentina and Brazil, Uruguay is rapidly becoming a favorite among the well-traveled. 

If there’s one thing we can be sure of in 2020, it’s that experiencing this planet is an enormous privilege which we will never againtake for granted. While we prepare for travel in America’s backyard in the short term, we’re also looking forward to experiences in remote destinations that celebrate nature as well as our own wellbeing. After all, who doesn’t need something to look forward to?

Together, Shawna, André, and Monique escorted a small-group wellness journey to Peru last Spring. Here are their insights.

If you are searching for a cost-effective spring break, there are two rules of thumb. Avoiding the hot spots like Miami, the Caribbean, and popular European cities is crucial, and going all in with all-inclusive packages, a travel holy grail for families in search of getaways that don’t break the bank.
