Lindsay says, "Always try to get off the beaten path! Those will be the memories that stay with you forever. Sometimes the must see attractions can leave you disappointed because of high expectations, it is when you experience something completely unexpected that makes a vacation memorable." Her favorite vacation is anywhere that has a perfect sandy beach, warm water and lots of sun is my ideal vacation... "it might be the fact that we are a month into winter... but my idea of the perfect vacation changes all the time!"

David says: "I recommend travellers take twice the money and half the clothes! Most people don’t need as much clothing as they think. I also advise people to tell the truth at Canadian customs". The most memorable trip, A two-week safari in Tanzania. We slept in luxury, portable tents with king size beds and were extremely close to local wildlife. David's idea of a perfect holiday? Anywhere with a little adventure, a little culture, and a little romance.
