At the end of last year we were fortunate to find ourselves heading back to Spain to celebrate a major anniversary for my parents! The whole family packed their bags and headed off to Spain to join in on the anniversary celebration. We were so excited to return to Spain as we absolutely adored our
London is a city Rick and I love going to time and time again – and there’s always still something left on our bucket list when we leave. Last year, we visited London on our England, Scotland, and Ireland trip with Go Ahead and basically had two nights and one full day in the city.

We were lucky enough to have three great days in Kyoto on our Go Ahead Tours’ trip: Cherry Blossoms in Japan: Tokyo to Kyoto at the end of March. The weather in Kyoto was a lovely change from the rain and cold we were greeted with in Tokyo, and we were thrilled to see the
We recently went to Japan on a guided tour with Go Ahead Tours and were able to visit Tokyo, the Mt. Fuji region, Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka.
