Women Beach Travel ClubWomen know that much of life is about compromise, but when you’re embarking on a travel adventure, why play by everyone else’s rules?

If you’re a solo traveler eyeing that Alaskan cruise, you’re probably also dreading the singles mixers, and if you’re a married mom packing up the family’s bags for a European expedition, you can pretty much forget about leisurely museum strolls or Michelin-starred restaurants.

Sometimes, when you embark on a travel adventure, you want to be able to do what you want to do, which is where women’s travel clubs fit in.

Peter Travel Detective BibleFor many people there is nothing more daunting than trying to plan a business trip or a vacation: Where do I go? What hotel should I stay in?

Where should I sit on the plane? What companies should I stay away from? What do all of these fees mean?

Peter Greenberg, the trusted travel editor of the Today show, and the man writer Paul Theroux calls “the liberator and defender of the traveling public,” is here to help answer these questions in his new book THE COMPLETE TRAVEL DETECTIVE BIBLE The Consummate Insider Tells You What You Need to Know in an Increasingly Complex

You’ve probably heard of medical tourism—going abroad for medical procedures—or dental tourism—doing the same thing for dental care. But now there’s something called “transplant tourism.”

There’s medical tourism and dental tourism, but here’s a new one: transplant tourism.

Before you start thinking they’re pushing the envelope too far, the transplants aren’t for organs . . . they’re for hair.

Yes, Makeover Brazil, a California-based company, and Plenitas, an Argentinean one, are offering hair-transplant tours to Brazil and Argentina respectively.

An eight-day package is recommended, with the operation on the first day and follow-up a week later.

The procedure is suitable for tourism, the companies say, because hair transplants rarely require follow-up care.

Plus, with mild anesthesia used and minimal recovery time, …

Mail Ask PeterI was diagnosed in 2004 with multiple sclerosis (MS). I have gone from walking four miles a day to walking with a cane, barely being able to walk down a hall. So I know how hard it can be. I am looking for a get away for my husband and myself mainly for my husband, because his life has change overnight, but he has hung in there. We have been married over 26 years … please send me information on your next outing so I can try and plan for it.

Spanish Flamenco Dancer SpainWe sit down for a one-on-one conversation with the world’s travel writers...

Imagine graduating college and being sent around the world on someone else’s dime and then being paid to review bars, restaurants, museums, and everything else that a city has to offer.

That’s the life that Andre Legaspi gets to brag about as a writer for MTV travel guides. “My family and friends were impressed and jealous,” said the New York native, who recently graduated from McGill University. “Travel writing is my dream job. But I have to keep reminding them, it’s not as glamorous as people think.”

Legaspi has written for MTV Europe, MTV Italy, and now, …

Peter Greenberg Travel Detective BibleWhen it comes to travel, I firmly believe a plan is only something to depart from, and that the serendipity of travel opens my eyes to a world where the arbitrary borders of fear and misunderstanding can be ignored.

What follows are my own tried-and-true guidelines for spontaneous journeying—literally—outside the box.

Forget brochures.
Brochures lie. They mislead. Almost every word ends in the letters st (best, greatest, finest, most). In fact, when someone tells me it’s not in the brochure, that’s precisely when I get interested in going there.

Be a contrarian.
Most travel signs should be disobeyed. Have an early morning flight from an airport with an …

Why spoil your kids on vacation when you can put them right to work? Don’t worry, it’s more fun for everyone than it may sound.

Here’s how kids can get involved with their hotel stay, and learn a new skill in the process.

Several of the Historic Hotels of America are offering children the chance to become a hotel professional for a day.

At the Fairmont San Francisco, kids can take on doorman duties, where they hail cabs and tip their official doorman’s hat to incoming guests.

The Peabody Memphis invites kids to be a Duckmaster’s assistant, where little ones can lead the hotel’s famous rooftop ducks on their daily parade to the lobby fountain.

Budding equestrians can get hands-on experience …

Walking TrekkingThirty years of walking tours could exhaust even the most dedicated guides from telling the same stories over and over again.

But not Nancy Cobb, co-founder of Coronado Walking Tours. She keeps going, leading tours around Coronado and its environs every Thursday and Saturday morning. What keeps her so interested in this small Southern California town of 25,000, on the outskirts of San Diego?

Well, for one thing … ghosts. And architecture. And history. But mostly it’s about telling a good story. “It’s like storytelling,” said Cobb.

But Cobb had yet to learn about all these things. At first she was in search of sunshine, ambiance and the sea.

She brainstormed with her …
