Bonus Section: Travel Tips for Summer 2025

 

✅ Book Early:

Flights and accommodations for peak summer months sell out fast, especially for hot spots like Europe and Bali.

 

✅ Mix Hotspots with Hidden Gems:

Pair a famous city (like Rome or Paris) with a quieter retreat (like Cinque Terre or the French Alps) to avoid burnout.

 

✅ Pack Smart:

Light layers, sunscreen, hydration gear, and power banks = your summer travel survival kit.

 

✅ Use a Travel Consultant:

A good consultant can help you beat the crowds, find better prices, and access exclusive experiences. (Hint: that’s where we come in! 😉)
