Let's Travel Together Newsletter

Togethering

"Getting together" travel has many different categories. One that is becoming increasingly popular in these days is called "togethering". Togethering is defined as: families and friends making collective plans to vacation in an affordable yet fun and casual setting. This is especially popular when loved ones live far away. The trend includes travelers choosing vacation rentals or villas for a better value along with spacious comfort for all under one roof. Different properties include different amenities but all give greater flexibily and a relaxed atmosphere to fit diverse travelers in one group.

Here are just a few of the great places where others have been "togethering":

New Hampshire Lakes Region
Tennessee Smoky Mountains
Colorado Rocky Mountains
Beach Front San Diego, California
Oregon's Mount Hood

Man-cations: No girls allowed
A mancation, aka: daddy weekend or golf or fishing trip, is a group of guys with old friends from high school and college (or just life) traveling together enjoying testosterone-infused packages. Keeping in touch is important and doing so while traveling is a great way to bond. They can enjoy poker parties, sporting events, hiking, golf, camping, or nightlife just to name a few interests. Here are a few ideas that will help when planning your next mancation:

Get a Group Discount

What is your first thought when you hear "group travel"? Are you thinking older folks hopping on a bus tour? Or college kids flying south for spring break? Sure, those are groups but they are not the only definition of group travel. As long as you have the same itinerary, the airlines, cruise lines, hotels, and tour companies consider you a group. Groups could mean a destination wedding or family reunion, you and your couple friends taking an island getaway, a bachelor or bachelorette party in Las Vegas, or attending a sporting event. So, if you are planning a trip with others, take a head count and see if you have enough people to qualify for a group discount. Remember the more people the better the deals.
