A customized vacation offers you the ability to prioritize your budget. Whether the sky's the limit or you desire to stay within a desired price point, you can create your ideal vacation.

There are two levers you can adjust to control the cost of your trip: accommodations and experiences. Your accommodation choices, including room category, will have the most significant impact on cost.

After that, consider if you prefer private tours and experiences, or if you are open to small group excursions, transfers, and the like.

Knowing what matters most to you will help your travel specialist create a vacation that highlights your preferences and travel goals.
