Tips for Travel this Summer

Summer is officially in full swing, and while this means long, lazy days in Bergen County, it also means more family fun adventures. Yet sometimes traveling can be more stressful than relaxing (hello long noisy flights and road trips) Here are some must-use services and products to survive this summer's travels like the pro you are:


Relax Concierge: Sick and tired of sitting on your suitcase to zip it up? Lighten your travel load by using Relax Concierge, they hand deliver items like linens, baby strollers, beach chairs or even plush robes. They deliver to rental homes, condos, and hotels at the Jersey Shore and other locations.



Luggage Free: A delivery service located in the U.S and internationally will pick up and deliver your luggage domestically and in over 150 countries worldwide. Say good-bye to long luggage lines and fees, and hello to paradise.



Global Wifi: Traveling internationally can easily rack up data charges and cell phone bills (especially with smartphone addicted kids in tow) Xcom Global will rent to you a personal wireless hotspot that can fit in your bag. No more need to cafe-hop looking for Wifi while abroad, unless of course you're looking for some delicious cappuccinos.




Lounge: Take the edge of a long flight by purchasing a Priority Pass, which will give you access to hundreds of lounges in airports around the world. This is perfect for frequent travelers and gives you and your family the extra break you need before your flights.

Shower Caddy: For those long road trips where everyone is squeezed into the family you can use a shower caddy as a make shift table for eating. It is perfect when there are not enough cupholders and prevents a dirty, messy car in the long run.


Malin + Goetz: Feel refreshed after a long flight, with Malin + Goetz's kits that are made specifically for travelers and carry-on bags.


Portable Phone Charger: These are a life savers for long days away from the hotel room or at the beach.





Kitchen Surfing: Get a gourmet meal with a personal chef for only $25 a person. The personal chef comes to your home, prepares the food in under 30 minutes and even cleans up the mess. You choose from 3 daily specials.
