If you're reading this, it's likely because you've never been to California before. Or maybe you haven't been back in a while and you want to give the state another shot. Whatever your travel reason, I want to assist you as your Orange County travel agent advisor . There are plenty of outdoor activities at your disposal from hiking to biking and kayaking or jet skiing at the lake. Close to Los Angeles , Orange County offers several attractions that are well worth the travel time.

Exploring Huntington City Beach

Huntington City Beach is one of four cities that make up Orange County (OC). Otherwise known as “Surf City USA,” Huntington Beach is one impressive OC attraction. You can surf some amazing waves or play a game of beach volleyball. If you're a beach lover, this is the place to be. You'll also love viewing the sunset from this popular California shoreline. Take a walk down the pier for a memorable sunset experience.

Visiting Mickey and Minnie

The “Happiest Place on Earth,” or Disneyland is also part of Orange County. If you're seeking a family adventure, this is one place you don't want to miss. Make a splash at Splash Mountain, or take part in a Star Tours. Meet Mickey and Minnie and go back to being a kid again. I can make trip planning a breeze by booking a stay for you at one of Disneyland's upscale resort accommodations. Taking a break from the hustle-and-bustle of life is well worth it when you can escape to the Magic Kingdom.

Hiking the El Moro Canyon Loop

If you love to hike, you're in for a treat in Orange County. The Moro Canyon Loop, which is close to Laguna Beach, is fairly easy to trek and about 5 miles in length. Besides hiking, you can also horseback ride on the well-worn path. If you choose to hike, I recommend a solid and comfortable pair of hiking boots. Also, check the weather forecast before you go to ensure you're safeguarded from the elements. If you visit during the summer and spring, you'll be rewarded with lovely wildflowers and spectacular views of the blue ocean. If anyone dares to tell you to “take a hike,” make sure you head toward El Moro Canyon Loop. Besides El Moro Canyon Loop, there are many places to explore in Orange County, California that are great for “taking a hike.” Parks in the locale feature hiking trails in the nearby mountains. You'll also love combing the shores for shells or relaxing and enjoying the ocean breeze.

Visiting the Museums and Gardens

If you love art, you can find plenty of museums that will meet your interests in this regard. Or if you like horticulture, check out the county's botanical gardens and parks. Museums and gardens feature free admission on certain days of the week, which allows you to save money for souvenirs of your trip.

Santa Barbara Travel Agent Specialist

Another Magnificent Sunset in Santa Barbara

The city of Santa Barbara is a popular travel destination for many reasons. Its Mediterranean climate, beautiful beaches, and stunning scenery make it a perfect getaway. There are also plenty of great attractions to keep visitors entertained. Here are some of the top Santa Barbara travel attractions. If you wish to visit sunny California, I recommend, as your Santa Barbara travel agent specialist, that you plan a trip to this beautiful city. Not only will you love its shops and restaurants, you will appreciate its culture and outdoor activities. For example, the Santa Barbara Zoo is one of the city's most popular attractions. Located on 30 acres of land, the zoo is home to over 500 animals. Visitors can see animal species from all over the world, including lions, tigers, elephants, and gorillas. The Santa Barbara Zoo also has a unique educational program that allows visitors to learn about each of its animals. Don’t miss the elephant and giraffe exhibits, which are both educational and entertaining. The Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History is another wonderful attraction. The museum is home to over two million specimens, including fossils, minerals, and animals. Like the zoo, the museum also has an extensive educational program, offering classes and workshops for all ages. If you're looking for a great place to take a hike, I recommend the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden - a must-see site. The garden is home to over 5,000 plant species and is known for having one of the largest collections in the world. You can also take classes or schedule them during your trip. You’ve got a lot of ground to cover - approximately 70 acres! From the beautiful beaches to the variety of shops and restaurants, there is something for everyone in Santa Barbara. Needless to say, you cannot mention Santa Barbara without commenting about its beaches. Whether you simply want to relax on the sand or catch some waves, they’re sure to please. Also, you have to visit Santa Barbara’s main drag - namely, State Street, home to shopping and dining. You’ll find the Santa Barbara County Courthouse and Santa Barbara Museum of Art on this well-known avenue. While in Santa Barbara, I also suggest a visit to Stearns Wharf, a historic wooden pier that offers an incredible view of the Santa Barbara waterfront. You can also find restaurants and stores located along the pier, making it the ideal palace to grab a bite or do some souvenir shopping. The Santa Barbara Mission is another must-see Santa Barbara attraction. If you’re interested in California history, you have to pay a visit. The Mission building provides a superb example of Spanish colonial architecture. Santa Barbara is also home to wine country and some of the best wine offerings in the world. In fact, the area features around 200 wineries - a type of paradise for anyone who loves wine and fine cuisine. Are you ready to spend some time in Santa Barbara? If so, I’m your go-to travel agent guide and advisor. Give me a call anytime so we can arrange a trip to the city!

Best Birthday Celebration Ever!

I was planning my husband's elaborate 50th birthday party in San Diego and was getting overwhelmed with all of the details. I felt I needed help managing all of the vendors so I reached out to Alisia via Travel Leaders, who was very warm and helpful right off the bat. Alisia was able to plan a beautiful celebration for my husband and our guests, complete with hotel accommodations, dinner reservations, and entertainment. We would not hesitate to use Alisia's planning skills again, thank you for creating a memorable and special experience for us. ~Lisa B.

Fabulous birthday bash!

Alisia helped me plan my 40th birthday party and baby shower in San Diego. She took care of everything for us! Alisia found the perfect hotel, secured the room block, arranged transportation for our out of town guests, reserved a yacht for 35 people and coordinated our baby shower lunch. She was prompt, professional and was very accommodating.

Perfectly planned trip to Napa

Had the most amazing experience with Alisia! Couldn't recommend her more. She planned our entire 4 day trip to Napa (it was our first time traveling there) and did such a good job picking out our wineries and tours. We felt like we had the best mixture of different types of wineries and made sure to put in different types of tours every day so it was always different. She made sure to plan our driving distance out perdectly so we always started at the winery furthest away and came back closer into our hotel as the day progressed. Picked out awesome dinner places as well! Another bonus, always super responsive to any emails I sent. 10/10 would recommend!
