When we’re helping our clients with travel planning, and after we have the destination nailed down, the next topic of discussion is: when to travel? While there are a great many considerations in answering this question, one of the topics of discussion should be: can we travel in the shoulder season?

“What is the shoulder season”, you ask? Well, it’s the time-frame between a destination’s high and low seasons.  And traveling in a destination’s shoulder season can get you still nice weather, smaller crowds, and potential savings/perks that can add up to a tidy sum of money.

Shoulder Season Travel = Nice Weather, Smaller Crowds, and Great Value!

A week-long golf, shopping, dining, and relaxation trip to the southern California coast, for example, will be significantly less expensive in September than July.  Plus, you’ll still enjoy nice weather, fabulous golf, and far less crowds.  The same concept holds true in Paris, Rome, South America, and all over the world.

Right now, in North America and Europe, we’re seeing ocean cruises, river cruises, small group tours, and scores of very desirable destinations offering special packages and perks during their shoulder seasons and prior to the very busy holiday season.

So, are your traveling feet feeling a little itchy to go somewhere?  Give us a call and let’s explore the fabulous opportunities.
