Cruise Tales, the company known for its dog-centric events and canine-friendly cruising adventure, has just announced its latest experience: a land-based retreat called the Happy Tails Glamping Getaway.

Set in the scenic woodlands of High Springs, Florida, just two hours from Orlando, this five-day, Halloween-themed escape runs from October 30 to November 3 and is tailored specifically for dog lovers and their four-legged companions.

This all-inclusive getaway includes a lineup of unique, dog-friendly experiences. Attendees can wander the “Tails from the Haunted Trail,” a spooky adventure through the woods. Afterward, gather under the stars for the “Haunted Stargazers Surprise,” a nighttime event designed to be just as magical for dogs as it is for their humans. And when it’s time to eat, expect gourmet meals and themed dining experiences, like haunted s’mores night, courtesy of an onsite chef.

“We created the Happy Tails Glamping Getaway to offer something truly special – an escape where dog lovers can celebrate the magic of the season without leaving their furry family members behind,” said Dawn von Graff, CEO of Cruise Tales.

The best places for solo travel in the USA: Where to go when you’re flying solo
Wander alone, but never feel lonely
Boston

Solo travel is having a moment, and for good reason. There’s something incredibly freeing about waking up in a new place with zero compromises on what to do, see, or eat. Personally, I love solo trips because I get to follow my own schedule (or ditch it entirely), try new things, and meet people I might never have crossed paths with otherwise. And while Europe gets a lot of buzz for solo adventures, there are tons of amazing destinations stateside, too. From historic cities like Boston to laid-back beach towns and scenic mountain escapes, these are some of the best places for solo travel in the USA.

Visiting Norway? A new fee may change how much your trip costs
The tax could be implemented as soon as next summer
Bergen Norway

Norway, famous for its dramatic fjords and Arctic beauty, is the latest country to introduce a tourism-related fee in response to growing concerns over overtourism. In 2024, Norwegian accommodations recorded more than 38 million guest nights, placing increasing pressure on infrastructure in many of the country's most scenic areas. Now, following the lead of cities like Venice and Barcelona, lawmakers have approved a measure that allows municipalities to implement a 3% “visitor’s contribution” tax on overnight stays and cruise ship passengers.
