Birthdays
Birthdays are the quintessential milestone to celebrate : You successfully made it around the sun ! You ’ re a little bit older and a little bit wiser . This calls for a party — maybe somewhere thrilling and indulgent .
The Caribbean is top of mind : Ultraluxe all-inclusive resorts are peppered across beaches from Cancun to Nassau to Negril and beyond . Spend your days alternating between ultra-serene lounging ( you ’ ll be hard-pressed to choose between the picture-perfect beach and the immaculate resort pools , complete with swim-up bars ) and venturing out on an adventure you ’ ll talk about for years to come ( cenote diving , waterfall sliding , rum tasting , etc .). In the evenings , you and your crew can indulge in the gourmet offerings of your resort — there ’ s likely an option for every craving and palate .
Graduations
For just about every graduate , the call of a gap year is an undeniable siren song . Even if your calendar can ’ t accommodate a full year backpacking through Europe , that doesn ’ t mean you shouldn ’ t go at all . And just because you ’ re backpacking doesn ’ t mean you have to rough it in overcrowded hostels .
Enter : The luxury tour . Simply select an itinerary that suits your interests — Italy ’ s charming chain of seaside villages known as the Cinque Terre , the fabled hike through the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu , Ireland ’ s rolling green countryside or the ancient citadels scattered throughout Vietnam ’ s & Cambodia ’ s countrysides on the way to the mystical Angkor Wat to name a few — and then just leave the nitty-gritty logistics to your tour operator . Backroads , a leader in active travel , is a stellar example of this in practice : Spend your day trekking through and discovering a whole new section of the world , and then end the day unwinding in style at an elegant hotel . Pair your forays into the local cuisine with world-class dining . As any of the many graduation cards could tell you , “ Oh , the places you will go .”
