Stacey Gross/Favorite Place Travel

Favorite Place Travel was birthed out of a passion for living and a passion for seeing how other people live. When we travel, whether to a foreign country, a theme park, or even just across state borders, we are exposed to many different people, people different than those we see everyday. We can learn from those people, what to do and, in some cases, what not to do.

At Favorite Place Travel, they love to go to different places, but they also appreciate the familiarity of visiting the same location, like visiting an old friend. They love to experience places in a way that is different than the typical tourist. Why take a bus tour through Paris when you can hop on a bike and ride your way through town? Why stay in a hotel in New York City when you can rent an apartment for a few days and live like the locals live?

Favorite Place Travel wants to help you experience your favorite places around the globe! They can take the stress out of planning that trip to Disney World, Caribbean cruise or vacation to Europe, so contact them with your list of Places to See, and they’ll turn that dream vacation into a reality!
