Orlando, Florida, is the ultimate family destination, but did you know it's also an amazing adults-only vacation? Join us on an epic audio journey as we explore some of the best things to do for adults in Orlando, including top-rated dining, wine tasting, sunset kayaking, and adrenaline-pumping roller coasters.  Pack your bags and join me and producer Luke as we head to the theme park capital of the world to show you why this sun-soaked city isn't just for families; it's also the perfect grown-up getaway if you want thrill rides paired with buzzing bars, restaurants and shopping.  In this episode of Travel Goals, we're swapping character breakfasts for wine tastings, thrill rides for even bigger thrill rides and discovering a more sophisticated side to Orlando. One with sunset kayaking, indie wine bars, swish hotels and luxury dining Of course, we're still hitting the big-name parks because riding TRON Lightcycle / Run or drinking Butterbeer in Diagon Alley is just as magical when you're grown up. You can race through the raptor paddocks on the Jurassic World VelociCoaster, face the First Order on Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, and then hop on classic rides that bring back all the childhood nostalgia. But we're also stepping outside the parks to explore Orlando's cooler, calmer corners. Expect leafy neighbourhoods with boutique shops and culture, glass-bottom kayaking through glittering lakes, and wine tasting in bougie bars.  If you're planning a getaway, a couples' escape, a group trip, or a trip with the girls, this episode will help you plan your dream grown-up adventure in Orlando, with where to stay, play and eat. If you're looking for a fabulous hotel, Lake Nona Wave Hotel is highly recommended. Please note that since the recording at Lake Nona Wave Hotel, Haven Kitchen has now become Garni Café, and Haven Lounge has now become The Nectar Room. Make sure to check them both out.  Thanks to Visit Orlando for supporting this episode of Travel Goals.

Think you know the Lake District? Think again. Join us on an epic audio journey as we peel back the layers of Cumbria to reveal a side you probably never expected—one bursting with art, heritage, and culture. When most people picture the Lake District, they see shimmering lakes, rugged fells, and charming country inns. And yes, all that is spectacular—but what if we told you this region is so much more than scenic hikes and boat trips? Beyond the well-trodden trails, Cumbria has long been a magnet for creatives, from poets and painters to musicians and makers. And it's not just about Wordsworth and his daffodils—Cumbria's cultural scene is alive and kicking.  Artists, musicians, and theatre-makers have put down roots here, turning former textile mills into buzzing creative hubs and filling historic venues with new concepts and fresh exhibits. We're stepping off the tourist trail to explore a different side of Cumbria. Think ancient abbeys, maritime museums that tell the region's shipbuilding past, and grand houses that played a key role in the early Quaker movement.  There's even an auto museum packed with classic cars and unexpected stories and vintage treasures. So, if you thought the Lake District was all about hiking boots and boat trips, get ready to see it in a whole new way. Thanks to Cumbria Tourism for supporting this episode of Travel Goals. The Let's Go Culture project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and is supported by Westmorland & Furness Council. #UKSPF ***** Hi, I'm your podcast host, Portia Jones [nicknamed Pip Jones].

Boston is a city shaped by water. From its earliest Indigenous inhabitants, to its dramatic role in the American Revolution, the city's history is written in its harbours, rivers, and shorelines. But Boston's connection to the water isn't just about the past—it's alive and thriving today. Join host Portia Jones and producer Luke as they explore Boston's famous harbour and its transformation from a strategic trading port to a thriving waterfront destination. Whale tails break the surface in the waters of Stellwagen Bank, an ocean sanctuary teeming with marine life. Kayaks glide past the city skyline, offering a fresh perspective on familiar landmarks. Amphibious vehicles splash into the Charles River on a journey that blurs the line between road and water. From the buzzing harbour to Boston's best waterfront activities, we'll take you beyond the usual sights and into the heart of Boston's relationship with the sea. Along the way, you'll hear from locals who bring these waters to life through conservation, adventure, or the stories of Boston's past Thanks to Meet Boston and TTM World for supporting and collaborating with the Travel Goals podcast. Tune in to discover a side of Boston you've never seen before. ***** Hi, I'm your podcast host, Portia Jones [nicknamed Pip Jones].

Way back when, we were younger travelers looking to save money as much as possible and travel more. This meant sometimes booking inconvenient flights, flying home before work the next day, etc. Now in our mid-30s, we noticed that there are a lot of things we used to do in travel that we rarely do anymore. As we all grow and change, so too do our travel styles. For instance, I was a budget backpacker who stayed in hostels in my early 20s. I don't do that anymore. And yes, we'll spend $200+ extra for a flight with 1 layover versus 2. Perhaps its age/wisdom or perhaps we do have a bit more income than in our 20s. Either way, these are things we used to do in travel that we don't do nearly as much these days. What changes have you noticed you've made in travel over the years?

Did you know that Halloween's true origins are rooted in the ancient Celtic traditions of Ireland? This isn't just any Halloween story—this is a spooky audio journey into the heart of the Emerald Isle, where the festival we now know as Halloween began over 2,000 years ago. Join us for an immersive, spine-tingling adventure through Ireland's mystical myths, haunting folklore, and fascinating Samhain traditions.   In this special episode, we take you to County Meath, home to the Púca Festival, where history, fire, and feasting combine with the strange and mischievous spirits of the Celtic Otherworld.

The Púca Festival is not just about folklore; it's a celebration of music, myth, food, and fire set against the backdrop of Ireland's most historic places, from the towering Trim Castle to the ancient Hill of Ward, where the original Samhain fires were lit centuries ago. Recorded on location, we'll take you behind the scenes of one of Ireland's most brilliant and imaginative festivals. Along the way, we'll share spooky stories, haunting legends, and our own chilling encounters as the veil between worlds thins.  This is more than just a history lesson—it's a journey into a world where the past and the present meet, where the eerie traditions of Halloween still resonate in Ireland's wild landscapes.

The purpose was to travel Europe, write about her travels, and encourage others to live out their dreams.  She now has over 560,000 dedicated Instagram followers, 280,000 on TikTok subscribers, and 170,000 newsletter subscribers, and her blog Helene Inbetween, receives 250,000 views every month.  In this episode, Helene discusses her candid travel memoir Two O'Clock on a Tuesday at Trevi Fountain and shares the realities—both the magical and the mundane—that come with chasing bold dreams and learning that home is where you make it. For those who fear change, the secret lies in taking calculated risks so that you can follow your dreams without compromise.  Join us for a lively discussion on how to break out of your comfort zone and start travelling now.  Order Helene's new book Two O'Clock on a Tuesday at Trevi Fountain HERE ****************************************** Hi, I'm your podcast host, Portia Jones [nicknamed Pip Jones], a freelance travel journalist, podcaster, and Lonely Planet guidebook author.  If you love to travel, you can check out my travel website and subscribe to my travel newsletter to get travel guides and tips and new episodes of the podcast delivered straight to your inbox Connect with us on social media: Travel Goals on Instagram | Travel Goals on Facebook  Are you a destination or travel brand that wants to sponsor the Travel Goals Podcast? Email me to discuss sponsorship and advertising opportunities on Travel Goals.  Enjoy the podcast and don't forget to leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Conquer towering peaks and rugged trails in The High Atlas Mountains with Morocco's first female mountain guide – Hafida Hdoubane. We take a deep dive into hiking trails, female mountain guiding and community tourism with Intrepid Travel – a group adventure travel company and the world's largest travel B Corporation. Recorded on location, join us on an immersive audio adventure as we hike through the High Atlas mountain routes, meet Amazigh villagers and guides and learn more about how Hafida first became a mountain guide. Hafida is a trailblazer in the trekking community and became one of the first certified female mountain guides in 1994. She now leads trekking tours throughout the country, including Intrepid's Women's Expeditions.   At the time, most of the guides working in the Atlas Mountains were European and male, so Hafida's entry into the hiking world was met with surprise and in some cases scepticism as Moroccan women were expected to stay at home and focus on raising a family. But Hafida decided to tread a different path and defy expectations.  From the wild Atlas mountains to Marrakech's historic medina, we meet the women who are shaking up Morocco's tourism industry and working hard to get more women into mountain and city guiding.  Thanks to Intrepid Travel for supporting this episode of the Travel Goals Podcast.

Do you want to have more adventures but don't know where to begin, travel expert, author and YouTuber Lisa Niver is here to help! In this episode, Lisa discusses how you can make your travel dreams come true and have adventures through the ages, no matter your age or travel experience. Adventure travel has long been advertised with pictures of bright-eyed and wrinkle-free young travellers sporting heaving backpacks and tie-dye trousers, staying in $3-a-night hostels.  But that's not the full picture, plenty of people travel throughout the decades and while their travel style might change, their love of the road never falters. Whether you're fresh out of university, a nine to fiver, or about to enter retirement, adventure should be for everyone. If you're considering broadening your travel horizons, setting out on your first travel trip, or wondering how to make friends on the road, then Lisa has some great advice for you.  Lisa is an award-winning travel expert who has explored 102 countries and six continents. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, she worked on cruise ships for seven years and backpacked for three years in Asia. She has a huge YouTube and TikTok following and is the founder of the website WeSaidGoTravel which is read in 235 countries and was named #3 on Rise Global's top 1,000 Travel Blogs.  Tune in and get ready to be inspired!  Huge thanks to our season 6 sponsors, Trip Mapper – a web and mobile app for travellers who love to design their own unforgettable travel experiences.

Any type of travel can pose a challenge, especially if you aren't used to being on the road. From cancelled flights, lost bags, medical emergencies and closed borders, there are many ways that travel can be tough, even for the most hardened explorer. But what about travelling to extremely challenging destinations, conflict areas and closed-off countries, is this even possible? How do you even begin planning an epic adventure to hard-to-reach places? This is where travel companies like Untamed Borders can help.   Formed in 2008 by professional fixers, supporting journalists wanting to reach often inaccessible and difficult areas, Untamed Borders specialises in travel to some of the most challenging and inaccessible countries on earth: from the Middle East to East Africa, Central Asia and the Caucasus. In this episode, we talk to the founder of Untamed Borders, James Wilcox about how travellers can get out of their comfort zone, how you can visit hard-to-reach places and why he rejects the term extreme tourism.

Hiking mountainous volcanic plugs, diving in colourful reefs and zipping through a dense forest canopy – Saint Lucia is more than just dreamy beaches and luxury resorts – it's a Caribbean island of adventure. Recorded on location, this immersive episode takes you on a journey through St Lucia's adventure activities, while getting unique insights from locals.  Beautiful Saint Lucia is an Eastern Caribbean island nation that has an array of volcanic beaches, reef-diving sites, luxury resorts and humid rainforests. Thanks to the island's small size, you could be snorkelling marine life-rich reefs in the morning, ziplining through a lush forest canopy in the afternoon and be back at your resort in time for a sunset paddle. While there are luxurious resorts, sandy beaches and plenty of cocktail bars, there's so much more in St. Lucia to reward the adventurous. When you visit the Helen of the West Indies, make sure to step out of our resort and out of your comfort zone. For more information about Saint Lucia, including how you can plan your very own island adventure, head to Saint Lucia's official tourism website – stlucia.org and get ready for the island life.  Huge thanks to our season 6 sponsors, Trip Mapper – a web and mobile app for travellers who love to design their own unforgettable travel experiences.

Many set RV travel goals like visiting all the National Parks or driving to Alaska. Others collect things to hold onto their memories, like a magnet, pins, or maps. But a music-loving RV couple from New York has a whole new way of making memories. Jill and Karl Marsh plan to visit as many cities/locations as they can that have a song written about it. Not only that, they plan to video themselves there, singing the song. The Marsh's are our guests on Episode 423 of the RV Podcast.
