As summer winds down, now is the ideal time to start planning travel for 2027 or 2028. The best sailings, cabins, and hotel options often book first—especially on popular river and ocean cruises.
And this month brings an extra reason to plan ahead. Before we dive into what’s ahead in travel, I’d also love to introduce you to Jessie Williams, who joined The Travel Purveyor earlier this year. Jessie brings experience, enthusiasm, and a genuine passion for travel, with a love for creating personalized journeys filled with culture, cuisine, nature, and memorable experiences. |

For my food and culture lovers, this is a very special opportunity to experience Japan through its heritage and culinary traditions alongside Claudine Pépin, James Beard Award winner and president of the Jacques Pépin Foundation.
Throughout the voyage, guests can look forward to special onboard experiences celebrating regional flavors and culinary storytelling, including live cooking demonstrations and a special gala brunch.
Claudine will also join guests on select shore excursions, offering opportunities to connect Japan’s cultural traditions with its rich culinary landscape.
If Japan has been on your list—or you plan your travels around great food—this is the one to consider.
Cruise for a Cause: This special Japan sailing is also a charity cruise benefiting GRACE Grapevine. A cabin has been generously donated, and an additional donation will be made to GRACE, making this an opportunity to experience the culture and cuisine of Japan while supporting an important cause in the community.
