One of our traveling families celebrated an 80th birthday with an amazing trip to Croatia. They spent their whole trip island hopping on a yacht!

11. We Saw Moo Travel with Her Daughter to Japan

Moo and her daughter traveled for their 8th time together on one of our family adventures!

12. We Helped A Resilient Traveler Go to Tanzania

Just a few days before leaving for a family safari in Tanzania, one of our travelers had to cancel her trip due to a leg injury. Then something amazing happened, she got advice from her doctor that she could in fact travel. With some quick work and flexibility to re-book flights and the trip, we were able to get this grandma to Tanzania to share an awesome adventure with her grand-kids!
