Wow! What a blockbuster year it has been for travelers who are checking off bucket lists and making memories around the world. To me, cherished memories are the best part of travel. And I’m thrilled that this publication offers you tremendous opportunities for cruising, land tours, and train travel.

Do you have a travel bucket list? Many travelers now consider them “to do” lists amid today’s popular travel scene. Look over the remarkable opportunities to discover Japan, immerse yourself in the Galapagos, or experience an amazing African Safari.

Maybe you’ll stroll the streets of Spain and Portugal soaking in the culture, sit at a seaside café indulging in the world’s largest vat of paella, or visit renowned historic sites. It’s no surprise that this captivating region is trending!

Of course, there are tried and true favorites to choose from like Italy where every trip uncovers a new experience. Maybe this time you’ll try cruising the boot for a new vantage point!

If paradise is calling, Hawaii never disappoints, and its welcoming residents are waiting for you! For a beach getaway closer to home, consider relaxing at an all-inclusive in Mexico, just a short flight away.

As you look at our collection of trips, highlight a few and take time to talk to one of our travel advisors about the options that are best for you. Remember, travel truly makes memories that last a lifetime. And it all begins with AAA.
