[Plan your next trip](   [Alaska with the family]( We went to Alaska in September! So many highlights. While exploring we discovered that the hike to Exit Glacier in [Kenai Fjords National Park]( has amazing views, but is also an incredible way to see a glacier up close and really understand how it shaped the land and how it is receding. - Sarah Stocking, Destination Editor [visit the alaska railroad]( [What to do in Alaska with kids](   [Swimming in Alto Alentejo]( I got married in Portugal in September and invited my closest friends to decompress after in Marvão. We stayed at [Quinta do Barrieiro]( just to spend a day next to the marble pool. Stop at [Natural Bar]( for the perfect sunset with petsicos and ice-cold Vinho Verde. - Erin Lenczycki, Photo Editor [Swimming in pool]( [More local finds in Portugal](   [Safari in Botswana]( Last month, I went camping in Botswana’s [Okavango Delta](. You’ll likely fly into Maun, which has quite a tiny airport, so I recommend walking across the street and fueling up at [The Duck Cafe](. Don’t forget to pack neutral-colored clothes so you can camouflage yourself! - Deepa Lakshmin, Social Media Director [Deepa in the bush]( [Top things to do in Botswana](   [Murcia, Spain without crowds]( I was lucky enough to be there for its annual Roman and Carthaginians Festival where thousands of people [re-enact the Battle for Qart-Hadasht]( on the very field it's believed to have occurred. When I go back I really want to dust off my scuba license to explore the shipwreck sites that lie just off its stunning coast. - Annemarie McCarthy, Senior Editor [Cheese and wine tasting in Murcia]( [Explore Spain's unsung food capitals](   [25% off your next purchase with code OCT25]( 25% off your next purchase! use code OCT25 at checkout [Shop 25% off now]( *Valid through 10/31/2023 for one-time use.     Love travel inspiration in your inbox?
