We take our beaches very seriously at Huffman Travel. When it comes to sun-drenched days, stunning sunsets, amazing sealife for snorkeling and scuba, and powder white sand–it does not get much better than the Maldives. An archipelago of more than 1,000 islands in the Indian Ocean, it is one of those rare destinations where the dreams and visions evoked by websites and social media are indeed the reality.

Together, Shawna, André, and Monique escorted a small-group wellness journey to Peru last Spring. Here are their insights.

Quite often, clients come to us for assistance in building a broader trip around a special event. This was the case for my family this summer, heading to Spain for a friend’s wedding in Costa Brava. After a magical few days celebrating love and life, we headed on to explore the riches of Spain and discovered three absolute gems.

Charleston is hot. The southern city was named the 2017 Top City in America by Travel + Leisure, and here at Huffman Travel, we can’t get enough of it! Monique and Sandi each visited Charleston recently; Monique with a group of girlfriends and Sandi with a group of travel professionals from Travel + Leisure. Here’s what they loved.

Italy consistently ranks among the top travel lists of globetrotters and it’s not hard to see why. The endless pursuit of “La Dolce Vita”…perfectly sun-ripened sweet tomatoes, soft white mozzarella cheese, and lazy, wine soaked lunches. The country that resembles a boot has an abundance of culture, charm, and history making it not just a “one and done” travel proposition, but a country that beckons for many a return visit.
