Luxurious Travel for Mom

May 04, 2016
Mom. She gave you so much while, in many cases, sacrificing her own desires. Each year, we set aside a day to celebrate the mothers in our lives, and give them gifts of gratitude. And while most mothers are happy with a brunch and a scented candle, doesn’t it feel like we can do more?

At Mitch-Stuart, Inc., we love it when donors win our fundraising auction travel packages as presents for others. Whether it’s a graduation adventure, a birthday gift or a special anniversary getaway, we think that travel is one of the world’s greatest experiences and, therefore, one of the world’s most meaningful gifts. Some of our Destinations of Excellence® can act as perfect getaways for moms, as well, giving them the chance to relax in the arms of luxury.

If mom has a taste for the finer things (or if your donors want to give her that taste), there are few cities more attuned to the luxurious lifestyle than New York. And while we have several trips to Big Apple, one of our favorites is the “Exquisite New York Dazzles Like Never Before” package. The adventure includes a stay at The Plaza, the world-famous hotel located right off of Central Park, in a Rose Suite, with a separate sitting room and a marble wet bar. But the biggest highlight may be the $1,000 gift card to Tiffany & Co., perfect to pick up that special necklace, pair of earrings or ring.

Does mom have a sweet tooth? If so, maybe San Francisco is the destination for her. The city by the Bay is known as a tech industry hub, as a place with stunning views and fantastic seafood. But it’s also the home of Ghirardelli Chocolate Company and on our “San Francisco Sweet and Savory” trip, mom can go on an Ultra Chocolate Tour, featuring seven tastings and even some wine and cocktail pairings! That adventure also includes a stay in a suite at The Fairmont San Francisco, with its unparalleled view of the city from the top of Nob Hill.

Of course, there are few cities on the planet more closely tied with luxurious indulgence than Paris. From its bustling café culture to its rich cuisine, the City of Light is a place for relaxation, for letting loose and for enjoying high-end experiences of extravagance. Our “Royal Parisian Palace” package features a hands-on cooking course at one of the city’s top schools, a lunch at 58 Tour Eiffel in the Eiffel Tower and even a cruise along the River Seine. It’s capped off with accommodations at Le Littre, right on the Left Bank and a short distance away from Champs-Elysees and the Arc de Triomphe.
