Key West, Miami & The Everglades

Key West has become one of our most popular destinations with our annual tour selling out every year, months ahead of departure. Key West is a pedestrian-friendly destination, and because of that we walk to many attractions. During your extended stay in Key West, your accommodations are in the very best location in town, at the historic La Concha Crowne Plaza. The hotel is a landmark building and it’s right in the middle of famous Duval Street, allowing you to make the most of your free time in town, because you can walk to just about everything. Restaurants and shops are close and best of all, your breakfast is included every morning! We do not recommend this tour for travelers with serious mobility issues.

It’s All About The Water

A title like this one sorta narrows down the options for where you might be going. For the more inquisitive in the audience, the water will not be frozen, so eliminate that thought right away. It’s All About the Water could mean a lot of things. You could be on the water, or looking at the water, or playing in the water… it’s a mystery! Look, don’t get all crabby on us. As my good friend Sandy used to say, “Life is a beach.” I know some of this sounds a bit fishy, but really, if you think about it, it could be fun. I mean, when have you ever had not one but TWO oceans, right outside your door (major clue alert). Only two hotels are involved, a 3 night and a 2-night stay, so you have time to enjoy your surroundings. Don’t worry, we won’t have to invent cool things to do, because we have found a ton of neat stuff.

Winter at the Majestic Ahwahnee

This trip is a Sports Leisure Vacations’ favorite! And the focus is all about the Ahwahnee Hotel… recently re-named The Majestic Yosemite Hotel. But for this writer, and many others, it will always be the Ahwahnee!
