Manuel Antonio National Park is the main attraction of the region, with monkeys, tropical birds, and iguanas comprising a large portion of the wildlife population. From almost every vantage point, rainforest vistas tumble into picture-perfect inlets and coves that punctuate the shoreline.<br /><br /><b>Damas Island Estuary Boat Tour</b><br />Explore one of Costa Rica’s most unique environments from the comfort of a boat! As you glide through the Damas Island Mangrove Estuary, you might spot curious families of monkeys as they migrate across the mangrove ecosystem in search of food and adventure. You might also see tropical seabirds, turtles, a range of reptiles, and maybe even a caiman or two! You will wind through acres of pristine Costa Rican estuary as guides explain why the mangrove eco-structure so vital to Costa Rica and the world. This tour will end with a relaxing yet rewarding meal.<br /><br /><b>Damas Island Mangrove by Kayak</b><br />Paddle gently through the inland waterways of the Damas Island Estuary, one of the most unique eco-systems on the planet. This important ecological area is where the salt waters of the ocean meet the fresh waters of tropical rivers, creating a periodically submerged forest of hanging roots. On the banks, you might spot local inhabitants, like the Sally light foot crab, boa constrictors, silky anteaters, monkeys, lizards, seabirds, and sometimes even crocodiles!<br /><br /><b>Coastal Sea Kayaking</b><br />Paddle your way around the Manuel Antonio coastline on this active kayaking tour. Beginning at the port of Quepos, you will start your adventure by paddling south. From a vantage point only possible in kayaks, you’ll catch awe-inspiring glimpses of Manuel Antonio’s breathtaking cliffs as we follow along the coastline. Depending on the tide, you may stop off for a snack at a secluded beach. Then, paddle close to tropical rock formations, where shorebirds are known to nest. This fun half-day on the water is a great way to explore the area and get moving!<br /><br /><b>Rainmaker Reserve Hike</b><br />Located about 30 minutes from Manuel Antonio, this private rainforest reserve is a great place to experience local wildlife, like birds, butterflies, frogs, and lizards. Explore the Rainmaker trails with your guide, who will teach you about the history and biodiversity of the reserve and its inhabitants. After this, you'll have a chance to navigate the canopy bridge system and experience the rainforest from an elevated perspective.<br /><br /><b><img class='imgadjust' style='float:right;margin:0px 0px 20px 20px;' class='alignright size-medium wp-image-6907' src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/La-Fortuna-Waterfall-200x300.jpg' alt='' width='200' height='300' />Nocturnal Jungle Walk</b><br />This unique guided adventure is 2 hours to be a part of one of the most fascinating ecosystems in the country – the nocturnal tropical wet forest. Get in contact with many of the nocturnal inhabitants of the Wildlife Refuge, such as the kinkajou, the<br />armadillo, or various snakes! With more than 30 identified snake<br />species, you’ll learn about which are dangerous and about their<br />natural history. You’ll also have the chance to visit the Tropical<br />Aquatic Gardens, which is home to a variety of frog and toad<br />species.<br /><br /><b>Local Flavors Cooking Class</b><br />Learn how to prepare classic Costa Rican dishes on this local<br />food adventure! First, you’ll head to a farmers’ market in nearby<br />Quepos to find the best ingredients for your dishes. Then, visit a<br />nearby ranch to meet the culinary team and search the organic<br />garden for some final ingredients. Finally, begin preparing your<br />Costa Rican staples, following local recipes. You’ll cover<br />everything from tortillas to “picadillo” (minced meat and veggies<br />with spices).</p><p></p>

I have no words for how wonderful our family-of-six trip to Italy was over the Holidays. The thing is, I could have planned a few apartments/airline tickets/etc on my own without realizing all that we were missing. Instead, I decided that I wanted to go all in on this Christmas present to my kids and hired Chelsea to take care of the foot work-- AND SHE DID. This trip was so much more than I could have ever thought it could be. My kids learned about history, participated in cooking classes, and dined at phenomenal restaurants. I didn't have to worry about tickets, reservations, transfers, baggage storage... we literally just showed up where we needed to show up. And when I did need help (I'm so sorry, Chelsea!) and messaged her at 2am her time, she responded quickly and took something that was meaningful to me (like laundry), and made it her personal mission to get a solution for us. Thank goodness I hired Chelsea for this trip. We would have never known how spectacular our trip could have been if we didn't.”</em><br /><b style='float:right;'>-Marisa</b><br /></p></div></div><div class='testimonial-item panel224' style='display:none;margin-bottom:5px;padding:15px;clear:both;'><h5 class='btm-sep btm-sep-left pb-3 mb-3' style=''>Using a Disney Travel Agent</h5><div class='img-holder mx-auto mx-md-0' style='border-radius:0px !important;margin-bottom:10px;width:auto !important;height:auto !important;float:left;margin-right:10px;padding-right:10px;'><a href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-18-165842.png' target='_blank'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-18-165842.png' alt='Using a Disney Travel Agent' style='border:0px;max-width:200px;' /></a></div><div class='testimonial-content text-left'><p class='rating text-warning' style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;'><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i></p><p class='mb-0' style='text-align:left !important;'>I recently just spent 4 days at Walt Disney World. This is my first time using a travel agent for Disney and I cannot speak more highly of Chelsea. She responded to me within minutes of wanting to book the trip and had 6 different offers for me to choose from and made sure we had the best deal! She linked the reservation for me and offered to help book my food reservations for me. This was a last minute trip and she even made sure I would still be able to get the magic bands. She did all of this for us within one day. She checked in with me leading up to the trip and almost everyday we were there! I already have three other trips she is planning for us and will never plan a trip without her ever again!! 😃😃<br /><b style='float:right;'>-Nichole Cambrige </b><br /></p></div></div><div class='testimonial-item panel224' style='display:none;margin-bottom:5px;padding:15px;clear:both;'><h5 class='btm-sep btm-sep-left pb-3 mb-3' style=''>Isla Mujeres</h5><div class='img-holder mx-auto mx-md-0' style='border-radius:0px !important;margin-bottom:10px;width:auto !important;height:auto !important;float:left;margin-right:10px;padding-right:10px;'><a href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/download-6.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/download-6.jpg' alt='Isla Mujeres' style='border:0px;max-width:200px;' /></a></div><div class='testimonial-content text-left'><p class='rating text-warning' style='margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;'><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i><i class='zmdi zmdi-star'></i></p><p class='mb-0' style='text-align:left !important;'>We can’t thank Chelsea enough for her help in planning our vacation to Isla Mujeres.

Step through amazing portals transporting you to the thrills of SUPER NINTENDO WORLD™, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ – Ministry of Magic™, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Dark Universe and more. Five immersive worlds. One amazing theme park.”<br /><br />After getting a first-hand look, I can tell you—they’re not wrong.<br /><br />🏨 Starting Off at Helios Hotel<br />I kicked off my trip with a stay at the brand-new Helios Hotel, which is located right inside the park. It has its own private entrance into Epic Universe, and in my opinion, that’s one of the biggest perks. I highly recommend upgrading to a theme park view room—the views of Epic Universe are incredible and absolutely worth it.<br /><br />Helios has:<br /><br />A great on-site restaurant<br /><br />A rooftop bar with amazing views<br /><br />A Mediterranean theme throughout, which flows into the food, drinks, and decor<br /><br />A gym, pool, and game room<br /><br />And again, its own private, secured park entrance<br /><br />All Universal resort guests get early park entry, which is a huge advantage, and that applies to all three Universal Orlando parks.<br /><br />However, it’s important to note that Helios is the only Premier-level hotel that does not include Express Pass with your stay. So if you’re planning to visit Universal Studios Florida or Islands of Adventure, I recommend doing a split stay—start at one of the Premier resorts to take advantage of Express Pass for those two parks, then switch to Helios for your Epic Universe days.<br /><br />Just keep in mind that Universal does not transfer luggage between resorts, so you’ll need to handle that part yourself.<br /><br />The location of Helios makes it super convenient for midday breaks, grabbing a snack or drink, or dropping off souvenirs you don’t want to carry around all day. That convenience really makes a difference.<br /><br />🌍 The Portals &amp; The Worlds<br />Epic Universe is made up of several distinct lands, each entered through a giant themed portal. Most of the lands are relatively small and typically have 1–2 rides, possibly a show, and some character experiences. But what they may lack in size, they make up for in immersion.<br /><br />The character meet and greets were absolutely top-notch, and the theming in every portal was so well done.<br /><br />From my experience, I’d say the ride quality here is better than what you find at the other two parks. I usually get a little sick on the Harry Potter rides at Universal and Islands of Adventure, but the new Ministry of Magic ride didn’t bother me nearly as much.<br /><br />My favorite ride? Monsters Unchained. It was beautiful, smooth, and truly felt like you were stepping into a horror movie. Definitely a must-do.<br /><br />🎢 Coaster Vibes: Thrilling but More Family-Friendly<br />The roller coasters in Epic Universe are smaller and more approachable than the major coasters at the other two parks. If you’ve got kids who are starting to enjoy coasters but aren’t quite ready for intense loops or big drops, this park is perfect.<br /><br />The most intense ride in the park is probably Stardust Racers. All the other coasters felt very doable, even for younger or more cautious riders (like me).<br /><br />🍴 Food &amp; Dining: Wholesome &amp; Delicious<br />The food at Epic Universe impressed me. There aren’t many reservation-based restaurants instead the focus is on a hybrid of quick service and table service: you walk in, sit down, scan a QR code to order, and they bring the food to you.<br /><br />The meals were fresh, flavorful, and filling—a step above typical theme park food. It wasn’t just burgers and pizza buts some really wholesome meals.<br /><br />🌀 Queues &amp; Ride Flow: Smart Design<br />One thing that stood out to me was how massive and well-themed the ride queues are. These are some of the biggest I’ve ever seen.<br /><br />I think this setup is a smart way to keep crowds inside and out of the Florida heat. Hopefully, it will also help the lands feel less overcrowded, giving you more space to enjoy the scenery, take photos, and fully experience each world when you’re not waiting in line.<br /><br />⏱️ How Much Time Do You Need?<br />In my opinion, Epic Universe is a 1–2 day park, especially if you have Express Pass and can skip most of the lines. It pairs really well with the other Universal parks and makes a great addition to a longer trip.<br /><br />Unless you're a diehard Nintendo, How to Train Your Dragon, or Wizarding World fan and plan to spend extra time diving deep into those areas, I don’t think you need more than two full days here.<br /><br />✨ Ready for Your Own Epic Adventure?<br />If you're thinking about visiting Epic Universe, Universal Studios Florida, or Islands of Adventure, I'd love to help you plan the perfect trip.<br /><br />I specialize in Universal Vacations, and I’ll take care of the details—from the best hotels and park strategies to food recommendations and crowd tips—so you can focus on the fun.<br /><br />📩 Message me today to start planning your epic escape!<br /><br />&nbsp;</p><p><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494141828_10236568287812382_8805189351098967185_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494141828_10236568287812382_8805189351098967185_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/493725215_10236568282732255_4504373270983067979_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/493725215_10236568282732255_4504373270983067979_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/495147885_10236568286452348_8187891242921808730_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/495147885_10236568286452348_8187891242921808730_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494105197_10236568287612377_2592505670950423891_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494105197_10236568287612377_2592505670950423891_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/492942597_10236568289412422_5704718619587516702_n-768x576.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/492942597_10236568289412422_5704718619587516702_n-768x576.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/492773641_10236568288372396_6903116987215477165_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/492773641_10236568288372396_6903116987215477165_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/490238284_10236568289292419_8575427680311234711_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/490238284_10236568289292419_8575427680311234711_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494033049_10236568288932410_7720445834311440575_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494033049_10236568288932410_7720445834311440575_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494182646_10236568290612452_7537673677527343365_n-768x1024.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494182646_10236568290612452_7537673677527343365_n-768x1024.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a><a target='_blank' href='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494490053_10236568253571526_1936140881669197356_n.jpg'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/494490053_10236568253571526_1936140881669197356_n.jpg' style='max-width:100px;padding:5px;margin:5px;border:0px;' /></a></p></div><div class='modal-footer'><button type='button' class='btn btn-default' data-dismiss='modal'>Close</button></div></div></div></div><div class='col-lg-4 col-md-6 col-12 mb-30'><div class='blog-item'><div class='img-holder'><a href='/agents/chelseamcdonell/top-7-tips-for-traveling-to-europe-in-2025'><img src='https://blog.vincentvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/50-Most-Beautiful-Places-in-Europe-Instagram-Post-Post.png' alt='Top 7 Tips for Traveling to Europe in 2025'></a><span class='date'>1/24<br />2025</span></div><div class='blog-content'><h5><a href='/agents/chelseamcdonell/top-7-tips-for-traveling-to-europe-in-2025'>Top 7 Tips for Traveling to Europe in 2025</a></h5><p class='mb-2'>1.

A carry-on-sized bag makes it easier to move between destinations. Comfortable shoes are just as important, as many of Europe’s best attractions are best explored on foot. Whether you're sightseeing or hopping on a train, you’ll want shoes that are stylish yet supportive for long days of walking.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Invest in a versatile carry-on bag and comfortable walking shoes. Stick to neutral colors for easy outfit combinations, and make sure your shoes are durable enough for long walks.<br /><p>2. <strong>Use Public Transportation</strong></p><br />Europe’s public transport system is among the best in the world. Trains, buses, metros, and even trams are an affordable and efficient way to get around. It’s also an eco-friendly alternative to taxis and rental cars. Many cities offer multi-day passes that provide unlimited travel within a certain area, saving you both time and money.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Download local transportation apps like CityMapper to navigate public transport with ease.<br /><p>3. <strong>Learn Basic Phrases in the Local Language</strong></p><br />While many Europeans speak English, especially in tourist-heavy areas, learning a few basic phrases in the local language can go a long way. A simple 'Hello,' 'Thank you,' or 'Please' in the native language shows respect for the culture and can help you make a positive impression.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Focus on greetings, ordering food, and asking for directions in each country you visit.<br /><p>4. <strong>Embrace the Local Cuisine (But Watch Your Portions)</strong></p><br />One of the highlights of any European vacation is the food! From pasta in Italy to tapas in Spain, European cuisine is world-famous. However, portions can be generous, especially in countries like Italy and France, so don’t overdo it. Enjoy smaller portions at local cafes or street vendors to try a variety of dishes.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Try local street food for an authentic experience—it’s often cheaper and just as delicious!<br /><p>5. <strong>Be Mindful of Tourist Scams</strong></p><br />Unfortunately, every popular tourist destination has its share of scams. Whether it’s overpriced souvenirs, fake tickets, or pickpockets, it’s essential to stay alert. Keep your belongings secure and be cautious when approached by overly friendly strangers.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Use a money belt or neck pouch for your passport, cards, and cash. Avoid carrying large amounts of money in your pockets.<br /><p>6. <strong>Plan Your Itinerary in Advance (But Leave Room for Spontaneity)</strong></p><br />Europe has so much to offer that it can be overwhelming to decide what to see. Create a rough itinerary with a list of must-see attractions and activities. But don’t overbook yourself—leave space for unplanned adventures, like wandering through hidden alleys or exploring a local market.<br /><br /><strong>Tip:</strong> Book tickets for popular attractions (like the Eiffel Tower or the Colosseum) in advance to skip the long lines.<br /><p>7. <strong>Take Your Time and Enjoy the Journey</strong></p><br />Finally, remember that Europe is all about savoring the journey. While it’s tempting to rush from one city to the next to tick off all the must-see sights, it’s equally important to pause and soak in the local atmosphere. Take a moment to sip coffee at a café, people-watch in a park, or chat with locals about their favorite spots.<br /><br /><hr /><br /><br /><strong>Ready to Plan Your European Adventure?</strong><br /><br />I specialize in planning stress-free, unforgettable European vacations tailored to your interests.

I recently embarked on an unforgettable 8-day journey on the Amadeus River Cruises' Classic Danube, which took me from the vibrant city of Budapest to the picturesque town of Passau. This trip not only showcased stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage but also provided an exceptional onboard experience that I can't wait to share.<br /><p>A Journey Through History and Beauty</p><br />From the moment I stepped on board, I was captivated by the ship's elegance and cleanliness. Amadeus is a family-owned company, and this dedication to providing a personal touch is evident in every detail. The spacious cabins featured comfortable beds and generously sized showers—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration.<br /><br />One of the highlights of this cruise was the dining experience. Each evening, I savored a delectable three-course meal, prepared with fresh, local ingredients. The fact that I had the same waiter throughout the cruise was a delightful touch; they quickly learned my preferences, making each meal feel personal. Plus, complimentary wine and beer at lunch and dinner elevated the culinary experience, allowing me to indulge in the region's finest offerings.<br /><p>Longer Stays in Port: A Deeper Connection</p><br />Unlike ocean cruising, where the ship often docks for a few hours, river cruising allows for longer stays in port. This meant I could explore the charming towns along the Danube at a more leisurely pace, immersing myself in their culture, history, and local traditions. From the stunning architecture of Budapest to the fairy-tale ambiance of Regensburg, each destination offered something unique.<br /><br />The excursions were thoughtfully curated, allowing us to delve into the history and culture of each city. Whether it was a guided tour through the stunning Buda Castle or a leisurely stroll along the Danube in Passau, every experience was enriching.<br /><p>River Cruising vs. Ocean Cruising</p><br />While both river and ocean cruising offer unique experiences, the differences are striking. Ocean cruises often involve large ships with a myriad of onboard activities, catering to a wide range of interests. In contrast, river cruising provides an intimate atmosphere, with smaller ships that can access ports that larger vessels cannot. This leads to a more personalized experience and a greater sense of community among passengers.<br /><br />Additionally, river cruises often focus more on the destinations themselves. With fewer distractions onboard, the emphasis is placed on exploring the history and culture of each port, which I found incredibly rewarding.<br /><p>Book Your Own Amadeus River Cruise</p><br />If you're considering a unique travel experience that combines stunning scenery, rich culture, and exceptional service, I highly recommend exploring Amadeus River Cruising. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or planning your first river cruise, this experience is sure to leave a lasting impression.<br /><br />As a travel agent, I’d love to help you plan your own adventure on the Classic Danube or another incredible itinerary. With the beauty of Europe’s rivers waiting to be explored, it’s the perfect time to embark on your journey. Let’s connect and create the perfect travel experience tailored just for you!<br /><br />Happy travels, and I hope to see you on the river!</p><p><a target='_blank'
