Planning a trip can easily become overwhelming. I want to make it easy and simple for you to plan your next trip, whether that’s with the kids, on your own, on sabbatical, travelling for business or simply for a weekend away.
I’ve broken down the process for you here, but for the complete kit, check out our Travel Toolbox © and Road Trip Planner & Toolkit ©.

CHOOSE WHERE TO GO
It all begins with a dream. Start working out where to go with our guide to the best places to visit in the world.
MAKE A PLAN
The more epic the adventure, the more effort these simple looking steps take. Our Travel Toolbox © and Road Trip Planner & Toolkit © will help you.
GET THE RIGHT GEAR
With the right gear, anything is possible. Check out our gear guides and packing lists here.

ROAD TRIPS
We love a road trip! Few things beat the freedom of the open road and the sense of possibility and exploration. It’s a great way to travel slow, to travel with kids, with friends or all by yourself.
But a good road trip does take some planning.
Luckily, we have what you need. We have a list of road trip essentials here, a guide to car rentals here and even some road trip quotes to keep you inspired
RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL
The travel industry is one of the biggest in the world. The choices we make, the people we visit, the products we buy, all help shape the world. Nowhere is perfect. No-one person is, either.
But that shouldn’t stop us from trying. Everything on this site aims to help you travel more and travel better.

FAMILY TRAVEL
Family travel is a wonderful thing – as long as you’re prepared! Start daydreaming with this travel bucket list for families and bucket list for the summer. Then add to the planning tools above with these child focused travel tips.
LUXURY & FUN
Is there anything more luxurious than the luxury of choice? Here are some ways you can choose to make your journey more comfortable, from business class flights to gorgeous luxury travel gifts.
GETTING THE RIGHT GEAR
With the right gear, anything is possible. Hunting for the Northern Lights at minus 40 in the Arctic Circle becomes a joy. Cocktails in Miami, easy peasy. With the wrong gear, everything becomes harder. Despite this being a luxury travel blog, I’m not a big believer in shopping for shopping’s sake, nor spending just for the sake of it. What I do know is that the right gear makes almost everything alright
