Why Experiences Make a Great Gift

November 5, 2021 by Allison Sandberg

Adventures by Disney

If the last two years have taught us anything, it is that life is short and the memories we make together are the things that are the most important to us. With so much going on, an experience for your family may be the best gift to give this holiday season.  

Listen to this episode of Travel Talk for great tips on planning a vacation experience that will make the perfect gift!

Why Gift a Travel Experience?

When you pick the right experience you know it won’t have to be returned. It will fit and be perfect for your family. 

Experiences won’t arrive late, be stuck in a shipping container, or have a late delivery date. You can plan an amazing experience and be sure it will be ready to give your family when the big day is here.

An experience is a gift that keeps on giving. How many gifts are the kids still excited about in June? Well, an experience is an amazing gift on the holiday when you reveal all the exciting plans. It’s the gift that continues to build excitement as the travel date gets near. Of course, the trip will be amazing and then you will have memories to look back on forever. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving. 

It’s the perfect gift for someone who has everything. Some people are so hard to shop for, but a new experience is something they don’t have and will really appreciate. 

What Type of Experiences Can You Give for the Holidays?

There are so many fun travel experiences for everyone on your list. Here are a few of our favorites.

Disney

For young families, a trip to Disney or a Disney Cruise is an easy win. With the 50th anniversary happening over the next year, it’s the perfect way to celebrate. Memories will be made for a lifetime and what could be more magical?

Universal Orlando

For teens and young adults, why not a Universal vacation? Did your family watch or read through the Harry Potter series over the last year? Why not pick an exclusive Harry Potter Experience package at Universal for 2022? That is something they won’t forget. 

Adventures by Disney

Anyone celebrating a milestone in the coming year? We are hearing of some canceled senior trips and other graduations and milestones that may not have been thoroughly celebrated in the past year. Why not plan a trip your family, graduate, or special someone will never forget with Adventures by Disney? You can plan a bucket list trip to Costa Rica, Europe, or even out west. Knock that celebration out of the park this holiday!

Kensington Tours

Maybe you or a family member spent time over the last 18 months researching your family history. Did you know we can plan a trip with Kensington Tours in partnership with Ancestry.com based on your unique family history? Now that is a gift that will be remembered. 

All-Inclusive Resort

Have a loved one you want to spend some alone time with? Why not an all-inclusive vacation for just the two of you. Make the arrangements for the kids and give her a gift she will remember. 

I may not have hit everyone on your shopping list, but that’s ok. We have a team of agents here to help. Tell us who you want to shop for, your budget, and we can put together an experience they will never forget.
