ROAD TO ROYALTY: CALIFORNIA’S CASTLE ADVENTURE


  • World Worth Wandering Mariposa, CA, 95338 United States (map)

Grab your fur baby (or don’t) and let’s go explore a castle!!!

“You see, we’re America the Beautiful, not “America Well At Least She Has A Great Personality”.” — Stephen Colbert

There is a reason that people come from ALL OVER THE WORLD to experience a taste of California . . . why? It’s legendary!!! This incredible adventure will take us on the open road, to indulge in an incredible boutique resort fit with 3 geothermal mineral pools, a spa with a cozy fire pit under the stars, a whimsical tree swing and MORE! Experience new adventures with new friends AND visit a REAL castle, without having to fly to Europe!!! Not only will we be staying in amazing accommodations, we will also be touring a gorgeous vineyard castle and getting the royal treatment while doing so! With wine (vineyard grown juice for those of us who do not drink alcohol) and charcuterie pairings, homemade belgian chocolates and opportunities for MANY photographs to be captured in this unique setting, this will be an experience like no other! I have carefully curated this original itinerary, to provide us with a safe and seamless trip that our fur babies are welcome on EVERY step of the way. Of course, bringing your pets is always options, you do not have to come with your dog or cat to join us, but they are most certainly welcome to come on all of my adventures! Nopawdy left behind! No stone has been left unturned and I have made sure that this bucket-list worthy journey, isn’t a “run of the mill” trip. I have poured myself into the planning of this trip, so you don’t have to; so you can use your precious time at home, on things that matter and to ensure a truly unique experience the minute we meet at our destination!

Payment 3 of $121 due on or before May 1st 2025

NOTES:

1) Please keep track of payment due dates. You are responsible for keeping track of payments and their due dates. Payments not made on time, without prior authorization, will void your spot on the trip, with no refund on any payments made to date.

2) Payment plans may be flexible. Reach out if you need to make adjustments.

3) Registration closes December 7th 2024 or whenever the 6 available spaces fill.

4) If you are traveling with a pet, please let me know at the time of booking.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

  • Travel insurance is mandatory. I always require travel insurance to protect your investment, “just in case”. I have linked the one I use above.

  • You are responsible for your own transportation to and from our experience in California. If you are flying and renting a car, the nearest airport would be San Francisco.

  • I will NOT be sharing hotel, tour company, etc. information. If you would like that type of information, I would like to suggest you opt for my travel planning services for a private trip instead.  Sending out that type of information to everyone creates more work for me AND also takes away from the element of surprise that you get ONLY when you arrive at a new place WITHOUT having already googled it to death.

  • Bookings are NOT CONFIRMED until deposit has been paid AND Experience Waiver has been signed and returned.

  • You are 100% responsible to keep track of your payment amounts AND due dates. For those who opt for credit card payments, invoices will be sent to you ONE WEEK before the due date. It is up to you to pay it on time. Those paying with Zelle will not receive an invoice. If you fail to make payments on time, without prior authorization, you are willingly forfeiting your spot on this trip, without a refund on ANY paid to date payments. Late payments are NOT acceptable under ANY circumstances, without a prearranged agreement. NO EXCEPTIONS.

  • This trip can ONLY accommodate 6 guests MAX – No exceptions. Once those 6 spots are gone, registration will close and the waitlist will open up.

  • I will let you know when we have reached our 6 person minimum and this trip is an official GO.

  • We will have 1 team zoom call prior to departure. On these calls, you can pick my brain about anything, from bug sprays to packing lists and everything in between! You are also always welcome to email me any questions, at any time if you feel they are urgent. I will create a “group email” once I have all 4 people signed up and I ask that you send questions to the whole group, to make sure I don’t get duplicate questions. :) More details will go out about 1 month prior to departure to all registered guests. This covers all FAQ’s.

  • If you sign up after we have already gotten into the payment schedule, then you will need to pay your deposit, plus catch up on back payments as well. Feel free to ask if you need a little flexibility, I will accommodate you if possible.

  • If you can not attend the entire duration of the trip, full payment is still required. Please reach out to your travel insurance for possible reimbursement.

  • If I cancel the trip for any reason, you will be refunded fully.

  • I will do my best to room you with someone, If I am unable to, you will need to pay the single occupancy rate.

DISCLOSURE: This itinerary is subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances such as unpredictable weather, global pandemics, tour company/hotel issues or errors or any other factors outside of my control. I always strive for the best possible experience and will substitute anything that must be changed with something equally or even more awesome!
