Travel Tips

While Mother’s Day may look a little different this year with some families separated by stay-at-home regulations and canceled brunches, some celebrations begin at home, so bring the fun to her!

 

Have a Meal Together

 

Begin with a Mother’s Day staple, which originated from pampering mom at home, like breakfast in bed — it’s a classic for good reason. For anyone quarantined at home with mom, make her something special like a turmeric scrambled toast, as if she was sitting down to brunch at a Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas property.

 

If you can’t be with her on the special day, arrange for her favorite teas, coffee, pastries, fruits and other breakfast foods to be delivered to her door. Contact local food purveyors in her area and see who’s delivering or arrange a curb-side pick-up and greet her (from a safe distance) with signs and balloons.

 

See Something Beautiful

 

Whether you’re home with mom or far away, take her on a virtual tour of something you can’t see from outside her window —  the Great Barrier Reef. Follow along with naturalist Sir David Attenborough and feel the vibrant colors or swirling marine life lift your spirits away from your computer screens together.

 

If the deep-blue sea isn’t really her thing, check out this list of virtual travel experiences you can enjoy together while planning your next adventure.

 

Relax and Pamper

 

Host an at-home spa day with mom in the same room or virtually. If you’re sharing a space, create your own wellness concoctions with recipes from spa professionals at Andaz Mayakoba Resort Riviera Maya and Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas.

 

If you’re sending the spa to her and joining along via FaceTime or Zoom, whisk your mother away with a well-prepared kit filled with scrubs, lotions and potions. Shop small with Etsy, upscale with The Little Market or highly specific with Knack.

 

Dig Deep and Unwind

 

Unwind with mom, whether home or away, and follow along with live daily yoga and meditation sessions with the Art of Living Retreat Center’s Facebook and Instagram

Texas’ Best Spots for Flying a Kite This Summer

With steady winds and wide-open spaces, Texas is a great spot to take kids to fly a kite. In fact, the state is home to the country’s longest-running kite festival, as well as a variety of family-friendly celebrations with kite-flying opportunities. So, pack some kites and head to these spots and festivals across the state!

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
