Which animal do you want to see most on safari? 🦁🐘 [hosted]

Kruger National Park in South Africa has been a dream come true! In just one game drive, we saw three of the Big Five and over 100 elephants! Now I just need to come back to check off a leopard and a rhino 😜

Can’t believe we saw three of the Big Five in only one day at Kruger National Park in South Africa! That’s lions, buffalo, and elephants - so rhinos and leopards are what’s left on my list! 🥳 Two of the other vehicles in our tour group did see leopards though, lucky them. 🤪

Photo at the end! 🤯

I doubt I’m going to get a better cheetah photo on this safari trip….

This was taken on our way out of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. We spotted FOUR cheetahs at sunrise, and the stars aligned to be able to get so close for an epic portrait. 

I am a professional photographer, but I am NOT a professional wildlife photographer, so I am so happy with this photo 🥰

What do you think? I can definitely see why people get addicted to coming to Africa for safaris! 🤪 2025-09-05 20:00:26 Photo at the.. 0 -100% 2 -97%

My 2026 jetset_trips group trips are live! Each trip is 12 max guests, and includes professional photography (and a personalized photo book I make for you after 😘). 

March 28-April 5: We’re going to Japan! This is an absolutely stacked itinerary starting in Tokyo and ending in Kyoto, with a stop in Hakone and day trips to Nara and Osaka. And it’s during cherry blossom season to make it even more magical! Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one. 😉 

May 2-8: We’re off to Machu Picchu, for TWO visits (so plenty of time for photos) as well as time exploring Cusco, Sacred Valley, and Rainbow Mountain. This is a luxe trip, with all 5* hotels and a one-way ride on the fancy Belmond Hiram Bingham train. This is my second time running this trip, but this time, we’ve added an optional Amazon rainforest eco-lodge extension for May 8-11!

November 20-28: An epic Thailand adventure to Bangkok, Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai, centered around the dreamy Yi Peng Lantern Festival (which we’re getting VIP tix to). There’s also the option for a beach getaway to Phuket November 28-December 1. ONLY TWO SPOTS LEFT FOR THIS TRIP! 🤯

That view at the end 🤯

Today I did one of the craziest things of my life! I swam right up to the edge of Victoria Falls and laid down over the edge, looking down at the most amazing rainbow 🌈 of my life, as two guys held my feet so I wouldn’t go tumbling over the edge! 

Victoria Falls is one of the largest waterfalls in the world, bordering Zambia and Zimbabwe!

To swim at the top of the waterfall, you go on the Zambia side to swim at Devil’s Pool.

The sunset scenes are all from the Zimbabwe side of the falls, which costs $50 to enter. The Zambia side costs $20. That’s both for just walking to viewpoints, not the swimming?

Would you swim at Devil’s Pool? 🤪

You have to do this when in Cape Town! 🤯 [hosted]

Luckily, Table Mountain was included in our efultimatebreak South Africa Expedition itinerary! And we even witnessed an amazing sunset 🌅 

It’s normally 430 Rand to book a ticket online in advance (~$25USD) but luckily it was included in our tour!

For the next week, I’ll be exploring Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Kruger National Park (safari time! 🦁) with EF Ultimate Break, so follow along to see more of my epic adventure, and save this for your next trip to South Africa!

[AD] Looking for the coolest things to do in Santa Fe? This city has so many unique experiences that go way beyond the usual sightseeing! 💃 newmexicotrue stellerdestinations

👉 Comment “Guide” and I’ll DM you my full Santa Fe itinerary!

museumofinternationalfolkart: Start with a visit to the Museum of International Folk Art, home to one of the largest collections of folk art in the world. It’s colorful, fascinating, and unlike any other museum you’ve been to. Seriously, this might be my favorite art museum in the US. All the giant cultural dioramas are amazing to look at!

ojosantaferesort: Make time for some relaxation at Ojo Santa Fe Spa Resort. You don’t even have to stay overnight, just grab a day pass and spend the afternoon soaking in their spring-fed thermal pools, lounging in hammocks, and maybe treat yourself to a massage appointment. 💆‍♀️ 

meow__wolf: Feeling artsy? Meow Wolf’s House of Eternal Return is a trippy, immersive art experience that will blow your mind – think secret portals, wild rooms, and interactive art at every turn. You get to explore the multiverse! 

sfgolondrinas: And for a dose of history, head to El Rancho de las Golondrinas, a living history museum where you can step back into 18th and 19th century New Mexico life with costumed guides, demonstrations, and festivals.

Which one of these would be your first stop? Save this mini guide for your next Santa Fe adventure! #NewMexicoTRUE 2025-08-03 22:12:20 .. 0 -100% 39 -39%
[AD] Every July, artists from all around the world gather in Santa Fe for something magical – the International Folk Art Market! folkartmarket has over 150 artisans from over 50 different countries. And as a certified shopaholic, trust me when I say this is THE event to go to. ✨💃🛍️ stellerdestinations newmexicotrue

Walking through the market feels like taking a trip across continents in a single afternoon. I bought a ring made in Kazakhstan and a piece of pottery from Peru and home decor from India. You can get handmade clothing, accessories and jewelry, home decor and pottery - there really is a bit of everything!

Mark your calendars for July 9-12 when 2026’s edition will be, as this is one of those events that belongs on your bucket list!

Would you spend all day here shopping or just wandering and soaking it all in?

a summer stay in edinburgh, scotland with virginhotelsedi ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 [hosted]

Virgin Hotels never disappoints, and their Edinburgh property might be my new favorite! It’s super conveniently located right on the famously colorful Victoria Street and even has a fabulous view of Edinburgh Castle from its rooftop patio. 

If you’ve never been to Edinburgh, it needs to be on your list - a city filled with rich history, beautiful architecture, and wonderful museums. There’s so much to see here that it feels like my tourist to-do list is never ending!

✨ Congrats to our winner vavleigh! 🥳

🚌 If you’re looking to escape the strip for awhile, this full day tour from maxtourvegas picks you up at your hotel in the morning for a ~12 hr excursion, stopping at spots like the Las Vegas welcome sign, Seven Magic Mountains, Hoover Dam, and Grand Canyon West. You can even add the Skywalk to your ticket like we did!

This is a great way to get out and see some major outdoor sights near Vegas without dealing with a rental car. My friend had never even seen the Grand Canyon before! 

Two little details I especially loved? The fact that it’s max group size of 14 (so not a big bus tour) and that we had access to unlimited drinks and snacks all day (they kept a well stocked cooler for us in the van). ❤️

Stepping into a real-life Pride and Prejudice moment ✨ Chatsworth House in England’s Peak District isn’t just another stately home, it’s one of the grandest country estates in the UK, and it totally lives up to the hype! 

I visited here on my 8-day London to Edinburgh rabbies_tours and it was one of my favorite days on the trip! [hosted]

👉 Comment “Tour” and I’ll DM you the tour info!

✨ Home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire
📍 Located in Derbyshire’s Peak District
🎥 Famously featured as Pemberley in the 2005 Pride & Prejudice and in Peaky Blinders

Whether you’re a history buff, a period drama lover, or just here for the views - don’t skip this one. Tickets can sell out in advance (and you book entry by time slot), but personally I was able to book entry for day of no problem. The morning slots tend to book out and afternoon slots were wide open the day I visited!

✨WIN 4 TICKETS TO THE LBJ PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY✨👇 [AD]

I’ve lived in Austin my whole life and I regret that it took me until now to visit lbjlibrary! Located on the University of Texas campus, the library is packed with exhibits that bring one of the most transformative decades in American history to life. From the Civil Rights Act to the Space Race to the turbulent Vietnam War years, President Lyndon B. Johnson’s legacy is complex, and this museum doesn’t shy away from it. 🤯 

One of the highlights? A 7/8th-scale replica of the Oval Office as it appeared during LBJ’s presidency (with his real desk!) You can also listen in on actual phone calls he made from that very office - like conversations with Martin Luther King Jr., Jackie Kennedy, and other key figures of the 1960s. There’s also a moving exhibit dedicated to Lady Bird Johnson and her environmental and cultural contributions, including a display of her original office that she used post-Presidency, along with personal items. What an icon. 🙂‍↕️ 

And if you’re visiting soon, make sure to check out the two special temporary exhibits: one exploring the surprising connection between Jaws author Peter Benchley and LBJ (including Jaws movie props!), and another focusing on March 1968 during the Vietnam War, featuring deeply personal stories from the battlefield and beyond.

📍 Location: 2313 Red River St, Austin, TX
🕒 Open daily from 9 AM – 5 PM (closed only on major holidays) Last visitor admitted at 4 PM.
🎟️ Admission: $16 for adults, with discounts for students, seniors, and military (12 and under is free!)

👉✨WIN A 4 TICKETS TO VISIT!✨

2️⃣ Comment about what you’re more looking forward to seeing at the museum and tag a friend! (Each friend tagged in a separate comment = 1 entry, and enter as many times as you want!)

Winner will be picked June 25th at 5pm CST and announced here. 

✨Congrats to vavleigh!✨

Whether you’re a history buff or just want a break from the Austin heat, the LBJ Library is a meaningful and memorable stop. Save this for your next trip to Austin or if you’re a local like me! 🇺🇸📚

Antarctica is a photographer’s dream! 📸❄️🐧 seabourncruise 

👋 Hi! I’m readysetjetset, an experienced solo traveler and group trip host, and I’m all about helping you plan your next adventure. I find the best bucket list experiences, unique stays, and beautiful destinations all over the world, so make sure to follow along - where will we jet set next? ✈️ 

I was so excited for the chance to photograph penguins that I even bought a 100-500mm lens for the trip, but honestly, that ended up being too much zoom most days - because the penguins really do get very close to you!

It’s ok though, because that long lens will very much get used on my upcoming group trip safaris to Uganda and Kenya later this year 😏

Which shot is your favorite? I still have so many gems I haven’t edited yet because I really did take thousands and thousands of photos and videos on this trip. But I’m very partial to the blonde seal, since they’re so rare, and the cool albatross shot I got of the bird lined up with the wave (I’m no animal photographer, so birds are a challenge for me!).

Comment “BOOK” to be sent the villa info and a 10% off code! [hosted] 💦 

Have you ever wondered what’s it like to stay at a private villa in Jamaica? Well, let me give you the ☕️ 

We were picked up straight from Montego Bay airport by private transfer. Once we arrived to the villa, every meal was cooked for us by Chef Dean (which I got to pick in advance) and the three staff members onsite helped us with anything we needed, like if we wanted a ride down to the beach. 🏝️ 

They also booked us a private customized day tour to go to Dunn’s River Falls early and beat the crowds (pro tip: climb the falls yourself instead of waiting for the tours if you don’t want to be with a million people), then lunch in downtown Ocho Rios (we went to Miss T’s Kitchen), and finished off with a private bamboo rafting experience. 🙌

The villa has 4 bedrooms so you can have up to 8 guests, making it perfect for a girls trip or bachelorette group or a family vacation. It was just me and travelsofsarahfay there on this trip, so we had tons of space!

Would you stay here? 😉
