The Fool
A Fool vacation is spontaneous and carefree. Just pick a location and go! This trip is all about risk-taking and experimentation. You’ll have an opportunity to open your heart and mind, and step out into a whole new world during your Fool’s getaway. Your only challenge will be to stay flexible.

The Sun
You’ll shine brightly on a Sun vacation, spending plenty of time having fun with others and enjoying a busy social life. You may travel in a group, or stay with friends on a Sun trip. This getaway is perfect for celebrating a special occasion like a graduation or recent retirement. You’ll need plenty of stamina to keep up the pace during this whirlwind adventure.
Sun vacation ideas: A cruise ship, or a house on the beach for the summer.

The Empress
During an Empress vacation, you’ll want to have plenty of time to relax and lounge around. This is not a trip for rushing from place to place or trying to do too much. The Empress getaway is designed for downtime and de-stressing. Sensual pleasures are also a key part of the Empress experience. Good food, natural beauty and other simple ways of enjoying life are highlighted.
Empress vacation ideas: A spa trip or luxury hotel getaway. A camping trip (with comfortable bedding).

Ten of Cups
The Ten of Cups vacation is all about family. This trip is an opportunity for you to take the time to reconnect with those closest to you. The actual location isn’t as important as setting aside the time to really engage with the people you love. This can be an emotional trip, in a good way, as you strengthen the bonds that keep you together.
Ten of Cups vacation ideas: A family reunion, a road trip to the grandparents.

Knight of Wands
The Knight of Wands vacation is all about action-packed adventure. This is the vacation to take when you want excitement and thrills. You won’t have much time to relax during a Knight of Wands getaway, since you’ll probably be constantly on the move.
Knight of Wands vacation ideas: A trip to the jungle, a mountain climbing (or other adventure sport) expedition. A horseback-riding trip through the bush.
