Take a Fall Getaway to Amazing Destinations

Fall is finally here, which is a great time to book a trip or plan your holiday travel. Fall is a great time for that getaway without all stress. Fall offers beautiful vacation destinations, food, entertainment, celebrations, new unique adventures and best of all you can beat the crowds.

Fall is so beautiful in most destinations, said journalist explorer Kinga Philipps The clouds have thinned out and there are so many great deals to had. Any time of year you’re going to travel anyway for work, fun and the holidays so why not get rewarded for it. One of the tricks of the trade is to have a credit card that gets you reward points that you get money back. One of the best cards out there is a Barclaycard Arrival Plus World Elite MasterCard. It’s consistently ranked one of the best. New card members can earn 60,000 bonus miles that is that’s worth a $600 travel statement credit and unlimited 2X miles on every purchase. Barclaycard Arrival Plus is great because you can book travel your way, no airline, seat or hotel restrictions and then redeem your miles for travel statement credits that can be applied of travel purchases, such as hotels, cruises, airfare and more.”

Has it been a while since you packed up the kids and took a family vacation? “For families I think one of the best places is to go with year-round awesome weather is Club Med Cancun Yucata,” said Phillips.The perfect location for families looking to create new memories, the resort's brand new Aguamarina expansion introduces 60 all-new oceanfront family rooms and a new pool area dedicated to families with exhilarating water games, relaxing lounge areas and outdoor activities for all-day entertainment.. They have completely renovated their entire resort with all kinds of family friendly options. They have two bedroom ocean view suite, a pool and bar that is family friendly We all know Club Med as the global pioneer of the all-inclusive world but I think some people don’t they offer so many amazing activities. They have archery, flying trapeze, water skiing, you could snorkel the second largest barrier reef in the world and kids under four stay for free. It is just a great getaway.’

‘Club Med is currently running their SUNSational Sale , starting at $125* per person, per night,” adds Phillips. “Travelers can take advantage of exclusive savings on travel through May 4, 2019, featuring exceptional pricing for families and extra benefits including: which offers families special pricing and extra perks, such as air credit and room upgrades. Kids under 4 stay for free! Club Med Cancun Yucatan is the perfect spot for a fall or winter getaway with the kids.

“Fall is one of the best times to go to one of my favorite places Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, “said Phillips. “The beaches are gorgeous the weather is amazing and there is so much stuff to do off the beach as well. It is such a great place with 30 percent off on a lot of hotels this time of year. The city offers cool complimentary activities like photo shoots for the family on the beach, plenty of amazing entertainment opportunities, and the golf courses are amazing.”

Don’t turn into a couch potato or beach potato. “One of the best things you can do to stay active is really go for things that are unique to a specific area; if you’re in Hawaii go shark diving, in Belize get an outfit to take you to the caves, suggests Phillips. Do the things that are going to make those really special unique memories.”

About Kinga; journalist ,explorer...always curious.

Never one to sit still, Kinga has tested herself for the past 15 years by traveling the globe...scuba diving, free diving, surfing, jumping out of airplanes, spelunking and swimming with sharks as a writer, producer and on camera journalist for networks such as CBS, NBC, ABC, USA, AMC, Travel Channel, Fox Sports, Universal Sports, Food Network, Current TV, Syfy and National Geographic.

Kinga was born in Warsaw, Poland into a family of explorers and adventurers. Her dad, a geologist, trekked repeatedly across Europe and her mom, trained in botany, can give the Latin name of every plant. Expeditions are in her genes. Her folks believed in regular road trips, camping, cultural exploration, photography and natural sciences. She didn't stand a chance of becoming anything other than the world wandering, adventurous, story telling soul she grew up to be.

She has traveled the world reporting on intense subjects like police corruption in Mexico, gangs in LA, women in the sex trade, humanitarian and environmental causes, world conflict and natural disasters. On the flip side she has explored the night life, festivals and exotic eats of the world's most vibrant cities.

Kinga was one of the original on air journalists to launch Al Gore’s Emmy Award winning Current TV, where she covered everything from travel, car culture and entertainment to current issues and hard hitting vanguard journalism stories that put her in the line of fire…sometimes literally.

As an on air producer for Syfy’s Legend Quest, a Da-Vinci-Code-meets-Indiana-Jones style adventure show traversing the globe in search of mysterious artifacts, Kinga traveled to 13 countries in two months exploring some of the world's most exotic destinations. The team investigated sunken churches in Ethiopia, trekked the Andes in Peru, went spelunking in the Philippines, dived Mexican cenotes, rode camels through the desert in Jordan, located one of the oldest known churches in a maximum security prison in Israel and braved rough seas to access remote islands off Scotland's west coast.

For National Geographic Kinga co-hosted America’s Lost Treasures, traveling across the United States in search of hidden links to America’s past, authenticating artifacts and telling the stories that connect our past to our present. The items from the show went on display at the National Geographic Museum in Washington DC. Kinga's background includes a minor in anthropology and a fascination with history.

Kinga has done several projects for Travel Channel including The Wild Side with Kinga Philipps, which had her kite surfing, bungee jumping, free diving and mountain biking across the US; the network's yearly special The Trip, where Travel Channel talent team up to show off exciting destinations; Travel Hacks, an animated multi part series written and hosted by Kinga and based on her more off beat and comical adventure travel moments and the award winning THE REAL, a comprehensive locals perspective of exotic destinations...repeatedly nominated and winning Tellys, Webbys and the Cynopsis Model D...among others. THE REAL is currently one of Travel Channel's premier shows on Facebook.

As a writer Kinga is the adventure correspondent for Real Clear Life with several ongoing columns including the acclaimed Real Life Lara Croft series she created, profiling inspiring women who are shattering glass ceilings; Off The Beaten Path: A Modern Nomad's Guide to a World Less Traveled, a series exploring hidden alternatives to the world's most visited destinations and her regular series of articles chronicling her adventures across the globe.

In her free time, Kinga explores a singular fascination with the ocean, free diving (see below), scuba diving, surfing, travel and sharks (those are her two friends from Guadalupe Island, MX swimming up top)... followed just slightly by a love of solo adventure travel, charity work, exotic foods and action sports. She lives in Malibu, CA to be close to the beach at all times.

Kinga is a board member of the nonprofit environmental group, Shark Allies, dedicated to changing the image of sharks and conserving our oceans. She is also a board member of Now Art LA, a non profit dedicated to curating and supporting public art.
