California Vacations

“A journey is a person in itself,” John Steinbeck once said. “No two are alike.”

There is much truth in his words, whether you’re venturing 30 or 3,000 miles from your home. Every step you take begins a new adventure, and every journey helps you come closer to the person you were destined to become. This trip to California is an important one, and you’re in good hands when you book California vacation packages with Travelocity. We’ll leave nothing to chance, ensuring your travel arrangements are secured in one convenient place, at the lowest possible price. When you combine your flight and hotel in one place, all that’s left is for you to complete the fun part: being there.

California vacations are the perfect opportunity to stretch your wings and seek wisdom in a new place. Each town, city, or region you visit has its own lore, and California is no different. Relax in a coffee shop and watch the locals stroll by, or pull up a stool at one of the local pubs and strike up a conversation with a resident. Ask them about their favorite part of California, and what drew them to this place. What will you learn?

Tips for a Relaxing Vacation

As you wander the road ahead, remember to enjoy moments of tranquility here and there. Far be it from us to provide tips for a relaxing vacation, but we’ll make some suggestions anyway:

  • Watch the sunrise. If it’s possible, there is nothing quite as reassuring as watching the first moments of daylight creep across the sky, chasing away the night.
  • You might also consider a massage—specifically a foot massage. Your feet take the brunt of your everyday action, and receive so little reward for their faithful service. Sit back and let them receive the attention for once. Any tension you carry will melt right out of your body beneath the skilled hands of a trained massage therapist either in town or at the airport.
  • Fill your itinerary with trips to the heart of the city and the wonders it contains. Of course, what’s a getaway without a little excitement? There’s bound to be at least one place where you can drink, dance, or just talk until the sun awakens to grace the skies with its presence once again.
  • Exercise and eat. Greet the day with morning yoga in a park, then wander the city streets until hunger gnaws at your belly. What will you have for breakfast? The culinary world is at your fingertips in California. Take your pick of bistros, cafes, or fine dining—all of it is waiting for you.

Packing for Vacation

We trust we don’t need to educate you on packing for vacation, but you might be surprised by how much even the most frequent traveler forgets to bring along. Additional undergarments are a must, as are socks; you’d be surprised at how often you might need an actual pair of socks on your travels. We also caution you to bring chargers for any electronic equipment that accompanies you on your travels, such as smartphone, laptop, or tablet.

No matter when you decide to travel or what you opt to bring, Travelocity offers the easiest way to book California packages at affordable prices. Why reserve each part of your trip individually when you can book everything at once? With all your travel arrangements taken care of, it’s never too early to start your vacation countdown. Enjoy the journey, traveler. We’ll see you there.
