Holland in Full Bloom April 22 – 28, 2027
Tulips, Windmills & King’s Day in the Netherlands

Imagine standing in the middle of a tulip field, with rows of red, pink, orange, yellow and purple stretching all the way to the horizon. Every spring, the Netherlands bursts into color, and for one week, you can be right in the middle of it.

On this trip, we’ll stroll through the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens, where millions of tulips bloom for just a few weeks a year. We’ll bike through the flower fields, visit the classic Dutch windmills, and glide through Amsterdam’s canals on a boat cruise. And we’ll be there for King’s Day on April 27, when the whole city dresses in orange and turns into one big celebration.

Spots are limited. Inquire today for pricing and trip details.

Tokyo in Bloom
Cherry Blossoms, Street Go-Karts & the Magic of Japan

March 27 – April 3, 2027

Picture pink cherry blossoms falling all around you as you cruise through the streets of Tokyo in your own go-kart, with Tokyo Tower glowing in the sunset ahead. Every spring, Japan bursts into bloom, and for one unforgettable week, you’ll be right in the middle of it.

On this trip, we’ll picnic under the cherry trees in Ueno Park and walk along the blossom-lined Meguro River. We’ll take a real street go-kart tour past some of Tokyo’s most famous sights, see the bright lights of Shibuya Crossing, and explore the fun shops of Harajuku. Then we’ll hop on the bullet train to Kyoto to walk through the bamboo forest, the famous red gates and the historic geisha district.

Cherry blossom season only lasts a short time and books up fast. Inquire today for pricing and trip details.

Payment plans available — contact me for details.

Go-kart drivers will need an International Driving Permit. I’ll walk you through how to get one.

Still Thinking About Booking? Let’s Clear a Few Things Up…

“Isn’t it cheaper if I just book it myself online?”

Not always—and here’s the truth most people don’t tell you:
We often have access to exclusive rates, perks, and upgrades you won’t find online. Plus, we help you avoid costly mistakes that can end up costing more in the long run.

“Why should I trust you with my trip?”

Great question—and you should ask it.
At Polking Around the World Travel, we don’t just “book trips”—we build relationships. You get:

  • Real human support (not a chatbot)
  • Verified travel partners
  • Guidance every step of the way

Your experience matters, and we treat your trip like it’s our own.

“What if something goes wrong during my trip?”

That’s exactly why you book with us.
When you book online, you’re on your own. When you book with us, you have someone:

  • To step in during delays or cancellations
  • To help rebook or adjust plans
  • To advocate for you

Peace of mind is part of the package.

“I’m not sure I can afford a trip right now.”

You might be closer than you think!
We offer:

  • Flexible payment plans
  • Low deposits
  • Options tailored to your budget

You don’t have to pay for everything upfront—we help make travel realistic, not stressful.

“What if I need to cancel?”

Life happens—and we get it.
We walk you through cancellation policies before you book and strongly recommend travel insurance so your investment is protected.

“I don’t have time to plan a trip.”

Perfect—that’s what we’re here for.
You tell us what you want, and we handle:

  • Research
  • Booking
  • Details & coordination

All you have to do is pack and show up.

“I’ve never used a travel advisor before… what should I expect?”

Expect ease, clarity, and excitement.
We guide you through a simple process:

  1. Tell us your vision
  2. We create your custom plan
  3. You approve and book

No confusion. No overwhelm. Just results.

“What makes you different from other travel agents?”

We bring the experience AND the vibe.
With Polking Around the World Travel, you get:

  • Personalized service (no cookie-cutter trips)
  • Group travel expertise
  • Memorable, curated experiences

We don’t just plan trips—we create moments you’ll talk about for years.

“I’m interested… but I’m still a little hesitant.”

That’s completely normal.
But here’s the question:
How many trips have you put off waiting for the “perfect time”?

The truth is—memories don’t wait.
And neither should you.
