Tax returns are starting to cross everyone’s minds as their tax forms are arriving in the mail. People are contemplating what they’re going to use those funds for this year. Here’s an idea: If you’re getting a tax return, why not use it for a vacation?
Whether you’ve had to put off your honeymoon, or you want to finally plan that family trip to Disney World, tax returns are a great way to fund a trip you’ve always dreamed about doing.
Use Your Tax Return for Bucket List Travel
People put destinations on their bucket lists with the caveat of “If I ever have the money.” While scrolling social media on your bus ride to work, you see a check-in from your brother-in-law who just landed in Hawaii. Next, a photo of your co-worker who is enjoying a cocktail on a white sandy beach in the Caribbean. Then a picture of your little sister enjoying some coffee and a scone from a quaint little café in Paris. Do you begin to wonder why you aren’t doing that too? Well, the good news is that you can!
With your tax returns, many of you now have the money to start checking off some of those bucket list items. Whether you’ve got your heart set on exploring the Mayan ruins, or zip lining through the jungle in Costa Rica, booking a vacation with Wanderland Escapes is the best way to get the most bang for the bucks you’re getting back in taxes. We can find you the most unique and life-changing experiences, with all of the inside scoop for your dream trip. The best part – the memories will last forever.

Travel Feeds the Soul
Travel feeds the soul and nourishes the mind. Forbes says that the effects of travel can be seen in your brain chemistry, and results in happier marriages, more creative problem solving, lower stress levels and increased productivity. That right there is a win-win!
It is also said that young adults that travel are exposed to more vast cultural differences, and in turn, are more capable of learning things outside of their non-traveling peers. “Student Travel is not only comparable to standard teaching methods, but it is also reported as being significantly more effective than computer-based learning and classroom instruction alone.” Therefore using your tax returns for a vacation is a great opportunity.
Remember, you’re investing in your experiences. The destination is important, but so is the journey. We can help you mark off items on your bucket list, and help you make unforgettable memories. Therefore, when it comes to the question, “Where would you go if you could go anywhere?” What is your answer? Tell us on our facebook post asking this exact question. We’d love to hear your answers! You can find that page here.
Even if you haven’t received your tax return just yet, we can still get the planning part started. Depending on your departure date, only a deposit is required to hold the booking, which also holds the price and final payment isn’t due until about 6 weeks prior to your departure date. Essentially that means you can book now and pay later. If you know what your tax return amount is going to be, we can help you find options within that price range.
Reach out to Wanderland Escapes any time you’re ready with your dream trip ideas, and we can help make it a reality for you.
