Are you seeking to add a little mystery to your life? Are you a seasoned traveller who has been everywhere and nothing seems exciting anymore? Are you looking to add a little adventure into your love life? Or are you just looking for a little surprise? I have two words for you. Mystery Trips.
So let me get his straight, I pay a bunch of money and I don’t know where I’m going?
Who wants to book a holiday only to get on a plane and arrive in a ghost town filled with creepy locals and wind up sleeping in a rat infested halfway house?
Stop being a baby, here are three reasons you should book a mystery trip now.

1. Adventure.
When was the last time you put your self in a situation and were genuinely excited? Too many of us forget what its like to be a kid and resign ourselves to an adult life filled with work, work and more work. Our lives are so meticulously planned out to the smallest detail, appointments are recorded to the minute, and even our vacations are planned out months in advance, more often than not to a familiar destination. Get a little crazy, the best experiences in life often stem from a leap of faith into the unknown.
2. Romance.
“Baby, grab a suitcase and some clothes and be ready in 30mins.”
“What’s going on?”
“We have a flight to catch”
“Oh my god sweetie where are we going?”
“I don’t know, it’s a surprise..”
You have officially upgraded from boyfriend to James Bond. I am a firm believer in buying experiences rather than gifts, and an exciting mystery getaway with your partner is a sure fire way to ignite that fire you share. You’ll enjoy an adventure together and come back refreshed and excited about life.

3. Affordability.
Packages are available to suit everybody. You can choose a flight to a mystery city and book accommodation at a mystery 5 star hotel from $85 to $435 per person.
If you are concerned about ending up in a place you have been before, don’t stress. You can inform the company of a destination you are not interested in and they will make sure you don’t end up there.
So take a leap of faith, escape the familiar and inject a little spontaneity into your life.
You’ll probably love it!
