Something Special- The Magadalena River-Uniworld
Something special The Magdalena river.
There is so much in South America and my other blogs have just touched on it, but I wanted to offer a few things that are special. This one is a river cruise on the Magadalena river.
Both are RT Lima, both itineraries are on the Aria Amazon. Designed to explore the Peruvian Amazon in luxury and comfort, the Aria Amazon is an all-suite ship with floor-to-ceiling windows, giving you a full view of the majestic rivers and rainforest. The top deck features a jacuzzi, indoor lounge & bar, and an outdoor observation deck. With all-inclusive amenities and five-star cuisine by top chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino. It is essentially floating in a treehouse down the river.

Hotels Used:
Three options for Machu Picchu
Machu Pichu
1. Tauck: Structured, Premium Family Travel
Tauck’s Peru family itinerary is essentially a highly organized, all-inclusive guided tour designed with families in mind.
What it’s like
Fully guided, multi-stop itinerary: Lima → Sacred Valley → Cusco → Machu Picchu
Includes curated activities like pottery workshops, chocolate-making, and cultural exchanges with local communities (Tauck)
Pre-selected upscale hotels and internal flights included
Daily schedule is active and tightly planned, with early starts and guided experiences throughout (Tauck)
Experience style
This is “hands-on discovery” travel with training wheels. You’re not figuring anything out yourself—Tauck handles logistics, timing, and access.
Strengths
Extremely stress-free (everything arranged)
Family-friendly activities and pacing
Consistent high-quality accommodations
Good mix of education + fun
Trade-offs
Less flexibility or spontaneity
Group format (you travel with other families)
More structured than some travelers prefer
Best for
Families or multigenerational groups
First-time visitors to Peru
Travelers who value ease and reliability over independence
2. Belmond: Ultra-Luxury, Experience-Driven Travel
Belmond offers something entirely different: custom luxury itineraries centered on iconic experiences, especially the famous Hiram Bingham train.
What it’s like
Tailor-made itineraries combining luxury hotels and train journeys across Peru (Belmond)
Signature experience: riding a luxury train with gourmet dining, live music, and panoramic views (Condé Nast Traveler)
Access to exclusive properties, including a hotel right at Machu Picchu’s entrance (Belmond)
Experience style
This is destination-as-theater—you’re not just visiting Machu Picchu, you’re arriving in style, with every detail elevated.
A traveler on Reddit described it as:
“like stepping back in time… live music, great food… one of the highlights” (Reddit)
Strengths
Highest level of comfort and service
Unique, memorable transport (train experience itself is a highlight)
Prime locations (e.g., staying near the site entrance)
Fully customizable
Trade-offs
Very expensive (often several times the cost of other options)
Less “authentic” immersion—more curated than exploratory
Requires planning (or a travel advisor)
Best for
Luxury travelers and special occasions
Honeymoons, anniversaries, bucket-list trips
Those who want the journey itself to be extraordinary
3. G Adventures: Small-Group Cultural Exploration
G Adventures offers a mid-range, small-group tour that balances structure with independence.

Small groups (max ~16 travelers) (G Adventures)
Mix of guided experiences and free time
Cultural immersion: visits to local communities like the Potato Park and traditional meals (G Adventures)
Experience style
This is “guided independence.” You get logistics handled (transport, tickets, key tours), but still have room to explore.
Strengths
More affordable (~$2,500 starting price) (G Adventures)
Smaller, more social group dynamic
Strong focus on local culture and sustainability
Balanced pacing—not overly rigid
Trade-offs
Accommodations are comfortable but not luxury
Some meals and downtime require self-planning
Less polish than premium operators
Best for
Independent-minded travelers who still want support
Couples, solo travelers, or friends
Those prioritizing value and cultural depth
Key Takeaways
Choose Tauck if you want a seamless, enriching family experience with everything handled.
Choose Belmond if you want a once-in-a-lifetime luxury journey where the travel experience is as important as the destination.
Choose G Adventures if you want a balanced, culturally rich trip that’s more affordable and flexible.
Antarctica Ways: Expedition, Immersion, or Icebreaker Luxury?
My favorite options for Antarctica
Antarctica is no longer a one-size-fits-all destination. Today’s travelers can choose between deeply immersive expedition travel, refined exploration with heritage expertise, or ultra-luxury aboard a cutting-edge icebreaker. Here’s how three standout options compare: Aurora Expeditions, Lindblad Expeditions, and Ponant’s groundbreaking Le Commandant Charcot.
The Expedition Purist: Aurora Expeditions
For travelers who want to feel Antarctica—not just see it—Aurora delivers one of the most active and adventurous experiences available.
Aurora specializes in small-ship expeditions with a strong emphasis on participation. Think kayaking alongside icebergs, snowshoeing across untouched terrain, and even polar plunges for the bold. Their itineraries span the classic Antarctic Peninsula, but also extend to more remote and wildlife-rich regions like South Georgia and the Falklands.
The ships are purpose-built for access, meaning more time off the vessel and in the environment. Groups are small, guides are highly specialized, and the overall atmosphere is informal, curious, and hands-on.
Best for: Active, experience-driven travelers who prioritize exploration over luxury and want maximum time off-ship.
The Balanced Explorer: Lindblad Expeditions
Lindblad Expeditions, in partnership with National Geographic Society, offers a beautifully balanced approach—blending authentic expedition travel with elevated comfort and intellectual depth.
Expect expert-led programming with naturalists, photographers, and scientists who bring Antarctica to life in meaningful ways. Daily landings, Zodiac excursions, and wildlife encounters are paired with lectures, photography guidance, and enrichment that deepen the journey.
The ships are comfortable and well-appointed without feeling overly formal. Service is polished but not stiff, and the overall experience feels thoughtful, immersive, and educational.
Best for: Curious, well-traveled clients who want a rich, guided experience with a strong educational component and a comfortable (but not ultra-luxury) environment.
The Ultra-Luxury Icebreaker: Ponant’s Le Commandant Charcot
For those seeking the most exclusive—and technologically advanced—way to explore Antarctica, Ponant’s Le Commandant Charcot is in a class of its own.
This is the world’s first luxury hybrid-electric polar exploration ship, capable of reaching areas of Antarctica that traditional expedition vessels simply cannot—thanks to its powerful icebreaking capabilities. That means access to the remote Weddell Sea, the Ross Sea, and deep polar regions rarely visited.
Onboard, the experience is unapologetically luxurious: Michelin-inspired cuisine, elegant suites with private balconies, a full spa, and refined French service. Yet, despite the indulgence, the expedition spirit remains—with expert guides, Zodiac outings, and helicopter-supported adventures on select itineraries.
Best for: Luxury travelers who want exclusivity, cutting-edge innovation, and access to the most remote corners of Antarctica—without sacrificing comfort.
How to Choose
Each of these journeys offers something extraordinary—it simply depends on what kind of traveler you are:
Choose Aurora Expeditions if your priority is activity, intimacy, and adventure.
Choose Lindblad Expeditions if you want a well-rounded, enriching experience with expert guidance.
Choose Ponant’s Le Commandant Charcot if you’re drawn to luxury, innovation, and rare access.
Final Thought
Antarctica isn’t just a destination—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with the wildest place on Earth. The right journey doesn’t just take you there; it shapes how you experience it.
If you’re considering Antarctica, I’d be happy to help match you with the perfect expedition—and unlock preferred amenities, insider access, and exclusive opportunities along the way.
Some of my Favorite Options in the Galapagos
Galapagos, the land that time forgot
🌎 The Big Picture: All Three Are Cruises—But Very Different Experiences
All three operators:
Use licensed Galápagos expedition vessels
Include daily guided landings, Zodiac rides, and snorkeling
Access the same protected national park sites
👉 The real difference is scale, style, and onboard experience
🧭 1. Natural Habitat Adventures
👉 Ultra-small yacht expedition (16–20 guests)
Experience
Intimate yachts (think: private yacht feel, not cruise ship)
Daily excursions with very small groups
Relaxed, low-key onboard atmosphere
What stands out
Guest-to-guide ratio is exceptional
Feels uncrowded everywhere—Zodiacs, trails, snorkeling
Strong conservation lens (WWF partnership)
Trade-offs
Cabins are comfortable but simple
Limited amenities (no spa, minimal indoor social space)
Less onboard programming vs larger ships
Best for
Clients who say: “I want the Galápagos, not the ship”
Repeat luxury travelers who now want authentic + quiet
Soft adventure travelers who value access and intimacy over polish
🚢 2. Lindblad Expeditions
👉 Expedition ships (28–100 guests) with National Geographic-level enrichment
Experience
Purpose-built expedition vessels (e.g., Endeavour II)
Robust daily operations:
Multiple Zodiacs running simultaneously
Kayaks, paddleboards, snorkeling gear
Teams include:
Naturalists
Expedition leaders
Often photographers or scientists
What stands out
Best guiding and interpretation in the Galápagos
Highly educational and immersive
Flexible itineraries (adjusted for wildlife conditions)
Trade-offs
Not ultra-luxury (more “refined expedition”)
Larger group size vs Nat Hab (but still small by cruise standards)
Best for
First-time Galápagos travelers who want to do it right
Curious, engaged clients who enjoy learning
Families and multi-gen groups
🛳️ 3. Silversea Cruises (Silver Origin)
👉 Ultra-luxury expedition (100 guests, all-suite)
Experience
Ship purpose-built for the Galápagos: Silver Origin
All-suite accommodations with butler service
High-end dining, premium wines, polished service
What stands out
Highest level of comfort in the destination
Seamless, all-inclusive luxury experience
Spacious suites (rare in Galápagos)
Trade-offs
Less “expedition grit”
Slightly less depth in guiding vs Lindblad
More structured experience
Best for
Clients who want: “5-star hotel meets Galápagos”
Luxury-first travelers
Honeymooners or milestone trips
🧭 The Real Decision Framework
Choose Natural Habitat Adventures if:
They want the smallest possible group
Prefer a low-key, yacht-style experience
Care more about being out in nature than onboard comfort
Choose Lindblad Expeditions if:
They want the best overall Galápagos experience
Value guiding, education, and depth
Are okay trading a bit of luxury for substance
👉 This is still the gold standard for expedition travel
Choose Silversea if:
They expect true luxury in a remote destination
Want a seamless, all-inclusive experience
Prefer comfort after excursions
Why South America?
Somebody inquired about the impact of the current fuel crisis on fuel prices about a week ago. As an expert in airline native software, I can price future travel based on past prices, so I pulled a selection of airfares to assess the impact.
The airfare data focuses on business class travel, as this is the cabin I typically work with to provide the most value. All rates listed are the lowest possible rate for that airline, route, and date. These are all premium cabins, specifically business class on widebody aircraft and first class on narrowbody aircraft.
Fuel Crisis Impact on Premium Airfares
A selection of airfares was pulled to assess the impact of the current fuel crisis on fuel prices, comparing today's lowest rate with the lowest rate for travel priced on January 31st. The data focuses on premium cabins—business class on widebody aircraft and first class on narrow-bodied aircraft—as these rates typically provide the most value. Based on one metric, the Central and South American market appeared far less affected than others.

ETIAS is coming for European Travel
🌍 Europe’s New ETIAS: What Every Traveler Should Know
Starting in late 2026, travelers from visa-exempt countries will need a new online travel authorization before visiting most of Europe’s Schengen Area and a few other EU nations. Think of it as Europe’s version of the U.S. ESTA — a quick digital pre-check that happens before you book your flight or step foot on the continent.
✈️ What Is ETIAS?
ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorisation System. It’s a digital travel authorization designed to improve border security while helping keep travel smooth and streamlined for the majority of visitors who pose no risk.
Unlike a traditional visa, ETIAS isn’t a stiff bureaucratic process — it’s a short online application that most people can complete in minutes. Once approved, it’s valid for up to three years (or until your passport expires) and allows multiple short trips to Europe.
🗓️ Timeline: When Does It Start?
The system isn’t live yet — as of October 2025 no applications are being accepted. The official launch is planned for the last quarter of 2026.
Here’s how things are expected to unfold:
Phase-in period: After launch, there may be a transitional period (several months) where travelers are encouraged to apply, but won’t be blocked at the border if they lack ETIAS — as long as they meet the usual entry requirements.
Mandatory enforcement: Full enforcement is expected sometime in 2027, after airlines, ferry companies and other carriers update systems to check ETIAS before boarding.
Until then, you can still travel visa-free as you do now — and there’s no need to rush to apply yet.
🛂 Who Needs ETIAS?
If you’re from a country that currently enjoys visa-free travel to Europe (like the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, the UK, and many others), you’ll need ETIAS for short stays (tourism, business, transit) of up to 90 days within any 180-day period. It applies to around 1.4 billion travelers worldwide.
It does not replace long-stay visas — if you’re planning to study, work, or live in Europe, you’ll still need the appropriate visa for those purposes.
🧾 How to Apply
Once ETIAS goes live, the process will be straightforward:
Online application: Fill out a form on the official ETIAS website or app before you travel.
Basic information: Provide passport details, personal info, and answer security-related questions.
Pay the fee: A fee of €20 has been set (about US$20-$22), though some travelers (like those under 18 or over 70) may be exempt from paying.
Authorization: Most approvals will be almost instant, and the authorization will be linked digitally to your passport.
Since this is an online process — no embassy visits, no interviews — many travelers will find it simple to complete.
🔐 Why ETIAS Is Being Introduced
Europe’s version of pre-travel authorization is all about:
Stronger border security before arrival.
Faster checks at border crossings.
Harmonized risk assessment across EU and Schengen countries.
This system aims to identify risks early, which can help reduce delays and last-minute refusals at the airport or land borders — especially useful given how busy Europe’s travel hubs have become.
📌 Tips for Travelers
Plan ahead: Even though most approvals are fast, it’s wise to apply well before your trip to avoid issues.
Use official sources: Beware of third-party websites charging extra fees or harvesting your data — only apply through the official ETIAS portal.
Check your passport: ETIAS will be linked to your passport, so ensure it has long enough validity for your travel and the authorization period.
🚀 Final Thoughts
ETIAS marks a major shift in how Europe manages its borders — but for most travelers, it simply adds one quick online step to what has long been visa-free travel. Think of it as a way to keep trips safe, secure, and hassle-free — with plenty of time to prepare before it becomes a travel must-have in 2027
Why Perkover is better than Virtuoso.
First of all, Perkover has all Virtuoso rates plus others.
Let’s take an example of the 1st and the 8th arrondissements of Paris. The first 18 are hotels that participate in Virtuoso. They are all on Perkover. The next 14 are hotels that have special rates, but don’t take part in the Virtuoso Program.

Tauck Bridges-- the best solution for multi-generational travel
Bella Italia, Made Effortless: Our Tauck Bridges Family Experience
Last summer, my family and I experienced Italy in a way that felt both deeply immersive and remarkably effortless—no small feat when traveling with three generations. Our group included family members in their 70s and 30s, as well as children as young as 11, and we all traveled together on Tauck Bridges’ Bella Italia journey.
It quickly became clear that this wasn’t a typical family tour. Tauck Bridges doesn’t just “work around” different ages—it designs for them, creating an experience that feels balanced, enriching, and genuinely enjoyable for everyone.
Italy Through a Multigenerational Lens
Bella Italia strikes a rare balance: iconic destinations paired with hands-on experiences that engage younger travelers, while still offering the cultural depth and pacing that adults—and grandparents—appreciate.
In Rome, ancient history felt vivid and accessible rather than overwhelming. In Florence, art became interactive and approachable. And in Venice, the city itself became part of the experience—easy to navigate, endlessly fascinating, and thoughtfully paced for travelers of all ages.
What stood out most was how naturally Tauck wove education and engagement into the journey. The children were curious, involved, and excited—never bored or over-scheduled—while adults could fully appreciate the history, cuisine, and atmosphere without feeling rushed.
The Luxury of Not Having to Think
For a group spanning multiple generations, the greatest luxury was ease.
Skip-the-line access, seamless transportation, centrally located hotels, and expert local guides meant we spent our time enjoying Italy—not coordinating logistics or managing fatigue. The itinerary flowed smoothly, with built-in flexibility that worked equally well for grandparents and pre-teens.
Tauck’s behind-the-scenes access—often unavailable to independent travelers—added an extra layer of exclusivity, while thoughtful meal planning ensured authentic Italian dining that was both refined and family-friendly.
The Tauck Difference: Thoughtful Surprises
One of the most memorable elements of the Bella Italia journey was something Tauck is particularly known for: surprises.
These are experiences not listed in advance—designed to delight and elevate the trip in unexpected ways. On our journey, those surprises included a complimentary visit to the Colosseum, a private nighttime viewing of the Sistine Chapel with fewer than 30 guests, and an unforgettable ride through Florence in classic Fiat cars.
Each of these moments felt exclusive, seamless, and genuinely special—experiences that would be difficult, if not impossible, to arrange independently, especially for a multigenerational group. For the children, they were thrilling. For the adults, they were unforgettable. And for everyone, they became the stories we still talk about.
Why Tauck Bridges Works So Well for Families
What truly sets Tauck Bridges apart is its understanding of family dynamics—especially multigenerational ones. Children traveled with peers and quickly formed friendships. Adults enjoyed meaningful cultural experiences. And older family members appreciated the pacing, comfort, and attentive support throughout the journey.
Everyone felt included. No one felt like they were compromising.
The result was a trip that felt enriching rather than exhausting, and memorable across generations.
A Trip That Stays With You
Bella Italia wasn’t just a vacation—it was a shared family experience that continues to come up in conversation months later, across ages and perspectives. That, to me, is the mark of exceptional travel.
For families seeking a refined, meaningful way to explore Italy together—whether traveling with children, grandparents, or both—Tauck Bridges’ Bella Italia offers a beautifully balanced solution—complete with the kind of moments you never see coming, but never forget.

Bonvoy Silver Status Instantly
Get Bonvoy Silver Status instantly
If you have a Marriott Bonvoy account, but don’t have any status, then I’ve got something for you.
Fill out this form for Bonvoy Silver Status
My friends at Marriott’s luxury department are letting some of their STAR and Luminous agents give out Bonvoy Silver status to their clients. Now, that isn’t a huge deal, maybe it might land you a slightly better room or help with a late check out, and make it faster to go up in level. However at all of the really nice Marriott owned properties. Remember, i get STAR and Luminous benefits, and those can help a lot. Together, higher Bonvoy tiers with a STAR/Luminous rate makes upgrades pretty likely. While there are some of the nicer brands with Luminous, nearly all of the top Luxury brands (below) have STAR rates. (that includes the new Yacht line)
Tauck
I have an aunt who has never been to Europe.
Ever since I was a small child, she was always one of my absolute favorite family members. She worked very, very hard her whole life. I come from a family of hard workers and my aunt is a prime example, she worked so hard, she didn’t get to travel too much. Her beloved husband passed away several years ago and she wanted to go Italy, she dreamt of it her whole life, she didn’t want to go alone.
I thought about that a lot. She’s never flown overseas, so I didn’t want to make a very long trip. She’s quite physically capable, but a small person, and I didn’t want her to lug her baggage from spot to spot. Also, being that this will likely be her only time in Italy. I wanted it to be AMAZING, I wanted her socks knocked off. She also asked me and my family to go! The more I thought about it, there was one clear best answer.
Tauck. Or Specifically, a Tauck Family Bridges trip. It’s a trip designed for three generations, Grandparents, Parents and Kids. My mom also decided to come. Believe me, in Europe, a family of five isn’t the easiest thing to book, a trip designed from the ground up was just perfect. The fact that 2025 is their 100th anniversary and they are having some great deals, didn’t hurt.
Tauck is one of the best, the awards speak for themselves. I’ve never had somebody have a bad Tauck Trip. Whether it’s river cruising, safari or overland, like we are doing. It’s always amazing. They are functionally excellent, they pick nice places and do all the best stuff, but they always stand out.
However, that’s not what really makes Tauck stand out. It’s the stuff they can’t really tell you about ahead of time.
For example take this little video: It flashes by the Ferragamo Museum in Florence, lots of people do that, Tauck has it with the member of the Ferragamo family. The concert? That isn’t in a music hall, it’s in a legit Tuscan estate. You may have had Lungarotti Wine, but some folks on a Tauck trip got to taste the wine, and learn about it, from Chiara Lungarotti herself. Ever walk into an empty Sistine Chapel? Not many people have, but not a few Tauck travelers who have traveled to Rome have heard the echo off of Michelangelo’s famous frescos. Tauck can’t advertise these things, because they vary tour to tour, day to day, but there are always special touches and that is truly one thing that raises them up.
Tauck Memorable Moments | Florence to Rome
Want to Travel with a history expert? What about Ken Burns? Like Trains? Pick a continent. Love the Tournament of Roses? Get up close and personal Safaris, Fall Foliage, National Parks, Small Ship cruising partnered with several of the best small cruise lines in the world and of course their own heavily awarded river cruise line. The Biggest reason I don’t advocate those to my clients is because of how far in advance those cruises sell out! Which is also true for their Small Group Journeys.
I’m taking my mom, my aunt, my wife and my daughter. I wanted a trip to Italy to be as perfect as possible, so… Tauck it was.

Saving Money by Flying More
Sometimes more flying can mean less money, even in business class
Saving Money by Flying More
In the peculiar world of airline pricing, sometimes flying more can actually cost less. You’ve probably seen those low fares with multiple connections that seem less convenient. While nonstop flights are in high demand, connecting flights can be easier to book, and sometimes, by manipulating stopover rules, you can actually save money. Here’s how to use this to your advantage.
Scenario 1: Chicago to Dubai with a Bonus in the Maldives
Imagine you want to fly business class to Dubai and experience Emirates Business Class. You check flights from Chicago and see that the cost is around $6,800 per person in business class. However, if you add a long weekend in the Maldives, the price drops to $5,625. That’s quite the saving, and you get to enjoy an over-the-water bungalow!
Scenario 2: Denver to Tokyo with a Stop in Saigon
Next, let’s say you want to fly nonstop from Denver to Tokyo on United in Polaris class. The cost is $8,135. But if you add a long weekend in Saigon, where you can indulge in Bahn Mi and Pho, the price drops to $6,274. Not only do you save money, but you also get to explore another destination! It also will let you try out ANA’s business class.
Scenario 3: Los Angeles to Peru with a Hidden Savings
Finally, consider a trip to Peru, with most travelers heading to Machu Picchu, which means flying to Cuzco. While there’s no business class within Peru, LATAM offers Cabina Premium and while they don’t have the best business class international, it’s not the worst either. . If you separate out the cost of that ticket, you’ll see a modest savings a few hundred bucks. But the real benefits are that the baggage allowance from the long-haul business class flights extends to your entire itinerary and that your contract of carriage between you and the airline represents your whole trip, not just a part of it. For example, if the Cuzco-Lima Leg is delayed and you miss the flight to LA, it’s on the airline to get you accommodated. If it’s two tickets, you may be screwed. What if there was civil unrest in Cuzco (like there was in January 2023? If flights cancelled in and out of Cuzco, then you could cancel your whole ticket for a refund, instead of just part of it. There are reasons to separate tickets sometimes, but generally more flights on less tickets is better.
Those are just some examples. You never really know where you’ll find value like this on flights until you look.
Below flights are all business class with the exception of the LaTam flight within Peru, it’s the closest that aircraft can come to business class. Premium Economy.
