In addition to specializing in Hawaii, Tahiti, Bora Bora, and cruises, Travel by Tatten provides travel services to travelers interested in other destinations and types of travel.
Escorted Tours
Imagine a hassle free vacation with a tour escort taking care of all the details. Stay at centrally located hotels, eat at local restaurants and visit the sights.
There are different types of escorted tours.
Fully Escorted – includes sight-seeing and most meals. Your trip is pre planned and escorted so you don’t waste time finding your way around.
Hosted Tour – you have a host in each city, who will arrange transfers from the airport or train station, escort limited sight-seeing and assist with optional tours and general information. A hosted tour is good for travelers who want to have some things included and a local contact, but like to have more free time to wander and explore on their own.
There are tours for every style and budget. Do you want to travel by deluxe motor coach or a small mini bus. Do you want to stay at full service hotels, small boutique hotels, or a 13th Century castle? Do you like fast paced, traveling to a different city every day or do you like to stay in one place for several nights? What is the level of activity on the tour; is there a lot of walking and stairs? Let me help interpret the maze of available tours and find the right match for you. Family Travel, some tour companies have designated departure dates geared for families traveling together.
We work with all the major tour companies including; Tauck, Insight Vacations, Collette, Abercrombie & Kent, Brendon Vacations, Yankee Holidays and Trafalgar.
Independent Travel
Looking to travel on your own, go where you want when you want…and stay as long as you like? I can book resorts, villas, inns or a castle, I can arrange tours in an area – private or with a group. Do you imagine yourself on a beautiful island with a pool in your room; or on at a ski chateau in Europe? Or are you a golfer dreaming of playing at St Andrews…home of golf. And there is always a cooking class in Italy! Just Imagine the Possibilities…
Active and Adventure Travel
Walking, Hiking, Biking tours, are small groups offering state of the art equipment and well trained and experienced guides. Their focus is the culture, art and history of the area. Meals are especially prepared for a unique dining experience with your new friends, as you relive the day’s adventure over a glass of wine. Imagine passing through a vineyard in Tuscany or enjoying the grander of the National Parks. Whitewater Rafting or Kayaking, a great way to get away from it all, to immerse yourself in nature. Experience amazing destinations, sleep by the river after an incredible meal prepared by your friendly guides. Or maybe an African Safari to see the Big-Five is calling to you, or is it the Polar Bears of Churchill? I work with all the major tour companies and outfitters including: Back Roads, Butterfield & Robinson, Micato Safaris, National Habitat Tours, National Habitat Photo Tours and O.A.R.S.
Destination Weddings
Do you dream of being married on a beautiful white sand beach as the sun sets and the sky turns golden, or maybe on a hill side in Italy surrounded by history? Is this a second wedding with the kids coming along, a Beaches Resorts or a cruise ship might be a good choice, with lots of activities for all ages. I can help you coordinate this special day!
Honeymoons
A special time, a special trip! This should be all you imagined, a romantic getaway with a private dinner on the beach or a secluded island. Or maybe sitting in a café in Paris sipping wine and watching the world pass by, or exploring little villages along the beautiful Amalfi Coast. Stay in a grand resort hotel, a country inn or a beautiful castle…let me help you imagine the possibilities.
Bachelor and Bachelorette Getaways
A last getaway with your friends before the big day. Las Vegas is a popular choice with lots of options; have a spa treatment and do a little shopping or go to the pool and visit the casino before dinner and a night out enjoying non- stop entertainment. Have you thought about a 3-night cruise, meals and entertainment are included in the cruise fare, an easy and fun getaway. There are lots of options; a theater weekend in New York with world class shopping and dinning, pampering at a luxurious spa, a weekend skiing and sitting by the fire with friends or time on the golf course improving your game. Time with friends creating special memories!
Women Only Travel
Need time away from your everyday schedule? Time to relax and recharge? Women only trips bring women together to enjoy new experiences, and enjoy the camaraderie of other women. You can join one of many trips being offered to women travelers, or I can arrange a private trip for you and your friends.
Family Travel
It’s Not Just A Vacation…It’s A Family Memory!
Looking for the perfect graduation gift, or is it a big birthday or anniversary bringing everyone together. Multi-generational travel is one of the fastest growing travel markets with Grandparents enjoying time with their grandchildren, as they see the world! Are you planning a family reunion, I can help you decide and make all the arrangements.
Group Travel
Do you have a group? I have developed and managed, educational and special interest travel programs for universities, cultural institutions, church groups and a radio station (WBZ in Boston). I have escorted trips to China, Europe, Hawaii, the South Pacific and many cruises. Let me assist you in creating an unforgettable experience for your group.
“Someday many years from now
We’ll sit beside the candles glow
Exchanging tales about our past
And laughing as the memories flow…”
