Interested in going to ARUBA this fall?

If you have been dreaming of visitin Ireland why not join us in IRELAND in Spring.  We can get you on a list and contact you with more details.

 

Vacations just for the Girls!

She is your BEST FRIEND!  She could be your mother, a sister or two, your daughter, your cousin, your sister in law or really your best friend.  I know you talk about spending some quality time with your mother, daughter, sisters or even your girlfriends from school, but do you really ever take the time to get away together? 

**Make the time....while you can!  Life goes by so quickly; you have to grab those chances!

Gather the girls and take a much needed and well earned BREAK from reality!  Work on those Mother/Daughter relationships!  Make some lasting memories that none of the girls will ever forget, you will be so glad you did!

BFF'S BEST FRIENDS FOREVER!!! 

 

Quote from a girlfriend!  "Our friendship has lasted longer than my marriage!  Love having you as a friend.  GIRLFRIENDS are timeless!"

What would most of us do without our sisters, confidants and shopping, lunching, best friends and traveling girls?  Let's celebrate each other with a girls only vacation! 
 

At First Choice Travel and Cruise all of us understand the situation and have made it easier for YOU!  We work with an office full of women and really a lot of our clients are women too, so of course the gals at First Choice Travel and Cruise decided to specialize in trips just for women.  We all have a mother or mother in law, we are mothers ourselves so we understand how great it is to spend a little quality time with the girls!!  Whether it is a cruise, a luxurious spa resort or a weekend getaway for theatre and shopping, we take extra care of women that travel alone or with a group. We know how important our vacations are to their sanity and well being.

Relax and enjoy yourself while traveling on our vacations designed exclusively just for women like YOU. Its easy, flexible and you an travel with a group or explore the area through an independent stay. Make your next vacation a special occasion with your mother, sisters, friends or come alone and join other like minded women to experience the unforgettable offerings we have put together for JUST THE GIRLS!!!  



Every year First Choice Travel hosts one or two escorted trips.  The annual Mother/Daughter/Sister trip is usually a 5- 7 night trip to somewhere exotic traveling in the fall.  It is a diverse group of women of all ages that love to travel, sightsee and shop together.  The group is always changing just like our lives change.  Every year there are new people that join in the fun.  Each year someone asks a friend to join and it keeps growing.  It is a great way for women of all ages to enjoy themselves and get together with loved ones. The size of the group depends on the destinations that women just love.  One year it may be a cruise and the next year it could be Europe or a Spa Resort at an All-inclusive resort.  Everyone is invited to join us.  Sometimes we even invite the guys but they usually beg off once they know how many women are going.  I can't figure out why????

 



Bring your mother, sister, best friend, cousin or grandma, and enjoy a special "girls week" together.  This trip is the perfect opportunity to spend quality time with the women you love the most.  This will also be the perfect Mother's Day or Christmas gift for any mother, wife, sister and even YOUR mother-in-law!

**Traveling in a group, is a great way to meet new people while experiencing a great new destination.  One misconception about group travel is that you have to stay with the group the whole time--NOT SO--unless you want to!  No worries there is plenty of time on your own to explore, shop and sightsee.

 

 


 

If you like to travel, sightsee, take in a spa now and then and of course LOVE SHOPPING contact our travel specialists and ask for Trips for Women at 262-542-5955!





Enjoy sheer delight while traveling on a Women Tour - vacations exclusively   designed for women.  You can travel with a group or explore the area through independent city stays. Make your next vacation a special occasion with your mother, sisters, friends or come alone and join other like minded women to experience the unforgettable offerings of these deluxe tours.

 

 

 

You do not have travel in groups to have a great MOTHER / DAUGHTER vacation!

Invite your mother, sister or your daughters on a vacation to remember forever.  Ask your mother-in-law or that girlfriend you haven't seen in years to go away for a weekend or even longer.  Your children grow up so quickly, try and get to know them a little more while you are away from home.

Ask your parents to go along before they can't get around too easy anymore.  Maybe we won't be able to be moving as fast either.  Don't put it off, ask them all now!  You will be happy you did when you come home all refreshed and ready to go back to the real world!  WHAT IS WRONG WITH ESCAPING THE KIDS, THE HUSBAND AND YOUR JOB FOR A WEEKEND OR EVEN A WEEK?  Nothing, if you come back all happy and glad you went!

 

 

Many of our clients enjoy their own Mother/Daughter trips just traveling with the girls! 

 

Dear Gayle, 
We are still talking about our trip!
Our tour guide Elena Bertola was outstanding and if you ever have the chance to pass that on to Globus, it would be really appreciated.  Also, I wanted to share that the hotels they picked were also great.  I got a little nervous initially since they had some bad reviews online.  The Albani in Rome was very nice.  The colors were a little outdated but the hotel caters to Americans and it gave us a chance to get used to European hotels (which are quite different from in the US) before heading onto Florence and Venice. 

We had such a great group of people on the trip and we made friends with another mother-daughter pair from Hawaii.  So, if you have anything going to Hawaii next year or a singles tour through Globus (for the other lady and me), we would like to know. 
 
At Trevi Fountain wishing to return to Rome!
Thanks again, Gayle, for all your outstanding help. I so do appreciate it.
 
Mary Karkow and mom!
 

Mother and Daughter visit New Zealand and Tahiti by land and sea!

Hey Gayle
 
YES!  We did love it!  Completely.  It was quite an excursion - New Zealand was so beautiful (chilly - but still magnificent)
The cruise was also fantastic - the hospitality was really great.  And - this vessel was far more suited to our speed than a large, floating city type (which doesn't appeal to either mom or me).  The only negative on the trip was the Sofitel in Pa'peete.. the hotel was fine - but we found the staff somewhat inhospitable.   BUT - in the grand scheme of things - this was such a small problem that it did not impact our experience.  I only mention it if you are booking others in Tahiti.
 
Thanks - Gayle - for making this trip so great.  Not only was the location really terrific - the trip was well suited for mom and I to travel together.
 
Have a great day!
~Tobi

 
 
GIRLS HEAD OFF TO THE BIG APPLE - NEW YORK
Holly Faith and her friend Michelle Haese left the husbands and kids at home. Judi said she would love love to do the Sex in the City tour after reading her review. I love the picture with the ABC Good Morning America Weather Man
 

 
OMG!! We had such a good time.  We checked in first thing and found out that we were upgraded to the Premier Tower, so we had to give up our own bed for free cocktails from 5 to 7 every night and a free breakfast.  The room was nice we had plenty of room for the two of us.  Next we walked up to the park and took a rickshaw tour of the park, got to see a lot more of the park than the carriage rides offer. (I.e. strawberry fields).  Then we walked down 5th Ave. and went into all the fancy stores.  Then we had tickets to Legally Blonde.  Loved it! 
 
 
 
On Saturday we went on a Sex and the City Hot spots tour.  Loved it!  We got to see so many parts of the city you normally don't get a chance to see b/c you are so busy doing the tourist thing.  We got to see the meatpacking district, SoHo, West Village and Union Square.  I loved the West Village the most.  I can totally see why so many celbs. live there.  There we also, a lot of high end designer stores we got to check out there too.  Then that night we went to the Mesa Grill for dinner, this is one of Bobby Flays restaurants.  It was kind of a disappointment, because the burned my steak beyond being somewhat edible.  
 
Sunday we did the downtown/battery park deal and went to Chinatown.  Got a couple of knock-offs.  It was so neat to actually experience the whole black-market.  First thing they do when you turn down Canal Street is ask you if you want a bag.  Then they take you to the back of the store and a women is standing there and opens up a secret passage way.  You are locked behind this door and half to walk up these creepy stairs.  Then you go into this room filled with bags.  You feel a lot better once you see all these other women in there too. 
 
 
 
Do you know who this is with Holly and Michelle? 
Monday morning we had to be at the ABC studios by 6:15 for GMA.  However, since the convention was starting on Monday, they didn't do too much with the audience.  We made it on during the 8:00 weather segment, I was on TV for about 1/2 a sec and my faced was blocked by Shelly's tall arm the whole time.  Sucks to be short.
 
Thanks for everything.  Looking forward to the next time.
 
Holly

As a side note: We have many women that have been to New York on some of our mother/daughter/sister/girlfriend trips and they have all experienced the sought after COACH and other designer handbag adventures!  This is a blast! Always go with someone else.  Judi and Gayle from First Choice have been  there many, many times and always come back with a brand new suitcase filled with purses for christmas presents and of course we keep some too!

See more pictures on our customer "show and tell" page.


Pictured below are a couple of our annual TRIPS FOR WOMEN!  Ages 1 1/2 to 80's.  New faces each time! A good time for women of all ages!
 




 

Plenty of MOTHERS, DAUGHTERS, SISTERS and FRIENDS on these great cruises!  If you don't like the water a LAND vacation will work for you too.  Try London and Paris for a week.  A wine tour and a few days in San Francisco with the girls will cure blues for sure! 



Pictured above is one of our Mother/Daughter/Sister group of 34 women on an escorted LAND trip to London and Paris.  We shopped, took in some shows, experienced the chunnel, the tube, the subway and did more sightseeing in this one week that anyone thought possible.  A week in London and Paris was a great experience for all of us.  We are all so happy we went.  I don't think anyone will ever forget this great trip, we are all still talking about it!!! 

A group to Punta Cana from grandma on down to all ages enjoy getting together with family and NEW friends!



Just some of the gals on our Canada and New England fall foilage cruise on Princess.

 

SAN FRANCISCO AND THE WINE COUNTRY!

In October we had the pleasure of  traveling with 19 women on a wonderful trip to San Francisco and the Napa and Sonoma wine country.  It was fantastic!  Some new faces and some ...not so old friends joined in the fun.  Can't wait for next year!  Please join us on the next WOMEN trip!

Pictured above are a few of the ladies enjoying a cruise on San Francisco Bay!

Here are a few comments from the GIRLS when we asked them what they liked best about the trip:

Great planning, great job!

Very educational.  Learning all about the wine and sparkling wine.  I liked the hotels and winery's!

Learned alot!

Thanks for planning a great trip!

Loved tours, hotels great, fun women!!

All of it was just right, I was happy.

It was great!  Learning about wine, shopping, drinking, eating - great company!

Great job guys.  Fantastic getaway.  Had a blast!

MOTHER/Daughter trip!!!!!!!!

Tana's clients just returned from the Brand New...GRAND SUNSET PRINCESS 

Cindy Ziegler Fritz and her Daughter Missy called Tana to let her know how awesome the GRAND SUNET PRINCESS Resort was.  They took a quick 5 night mother/daughter trip during Missy’s winter break and had nothing but wonderful things to say.  Loved it and can’t wait to go back!

 

MOTHER/DAUGHTER TRIP TO HAWAII! 

Hi Gayle!!!!

We had the best time!  Everything was so wonderful.  Thank you so much for the birthday/Mother's Day gift basket.  It was so thoughtful of you and a really nice surprise.  I loved the hotel, everyone was so kind and willing to go the extra mile for us.  It was clean and convenient.

We did everything - luau, surfing, Hana, Haleakala, snorkeling, and lots of beach time.  I already got Tim to promise to go back with me, I'm hoping next year.  It was a really great trip to be on with my daughter and I think it would be that much more wonderful with Tim.  He always said that there was no way he'd ever go to Hawaii because there are tropical places to vacation that are much closer, but this was so different than all the other warm weather places we've traveled to and well worth the travel time.  

Thanks again.  It was such precious time to have with my daughter who is almost 16 years and entering her junior year in high school.  There just isn't a price for the time we shared.

Talk with you soon,

Julie Goggins

P.S.  The boys came home safely but their trip definitely paled in comparison to ours.

Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you.  A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach.  When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself, the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the valley's end.  Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you.  Or come in and carry you out.  Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters, daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, Mothers, Grandmothers, aunties, nieces, cousins, and extended family, all bless our life!

The world wouldn't be the same without women, and neither would I!!!

WOMEN ADVENTURE TRIPS

Some women prefer to travel alone and seek adventure wherever they go.  I think that is a great idea and we are happy to make your dreams come true.  One of our favorite ladies that looks for adventure when she is traveling is Diane Brown and she was nice enough to share with us her travels. Can you believe she has been to the ANTARCTIC?  She made lots of new friends here.  Some are dressed to the nines! Here is what Diane has to share with us on some of her travels.

Yes, after a week of trying to rest and get back into real life, here I am.
 
First of all, you really must look into Lindblad Expeditions for your travel choices.  Some people might find them very rewarding.  BUT you must remember they are not cruises....but expeditions connected with the National Geographic Society.
 
People will be disappointed if they are expecting a "cruise."  Lindblad remembers everything from soup to nuts and leaves nothing to chance.  It was the most organized and well planned trip I have ever been on.
 
All staff and people and guests were outstanding.
 
Diane Brown

PS-Diane is calling herself the PENQUIN LADY now!!!

I think that Diane found her ADVENTURE TRIP of a lifetime!  We would love to help you find your own.  Women do not have to travel in large groups all the time to have a good time.  TELL US WHAT YOUR idea of an ADVENTURE or a good vacation is and we will be happy to help you plan it!

 

 

 

"Travel is not a luxury anymore...it is a necessity! I would love to recommend a vacation for you that will exceed your expectations!"
