Affordable Mother's Day Travel Deals

by Michele Cheplic | More from this Blogger

What's the one place your mom has always dreamed of visiting? New York, Chicago, Hawaii, California? If you are looking for a way to make this Mother's Day one your dear ol' mom won't soon forget, but the rising cost of everything has you more budget conscious than ever, you're in luck. Just in time for the big May 11th celebration several lodgings are offering discounts for the special ladies in your life.

If your mom has fantasized of relaxing in sunny Arizona or touring awe-inspiring art collections displayed in culturally rich Mexico City then you might consider the following deals:

ARIZONA

Sedona, Arizona features some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. The Southwestern town is known for its breathtaking red rock formations and its world-class spas. If your mom is overdue for some serious pampering sign her up for the Girls Get Grounded Getaway package being offered by Sedona's Amara Resort and Spa. The package is priced for two (which means you can tag along for some quality time with mom) and runs $868. The price includes a $20 food credit per person each day; a personal crystal and a Vortex guide book; complimentary wine and cheese; and mom's choice of the following: a facial, a yoga class or a psychic reading.

If your mom's dream day includes chilling out poolside at a resort framed by majestic mountains then you might consider the Willow Stream Relaxation Package being offered by the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. For $543 per room per night your mom will receive accommodations, plus a $200 spa and restaurant credit per person per night. The resort's spa offers a variety of services including mud wraps, aromatherapy, mineral baths, and massages. The resort also boasts a rooftop pool views of the glorious McDowell Mountains.

MEXICO

This trip doesn't take place until August so it is a perfect gift for the mom who enjoys spending Mother's Day with the people she cherishes the most. Imagine how delighted your art-loving mom will be when she unwraps this travel gift. Tia Stephanie Tours is offering a seven-night Mexico City package called The Life and Legacy of Frida Kahlo, honoring one of the world's most recognized female artists--Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. The journey of Mexico's capital city includes hotel accommodations; transfers and local transportation; meals; and guided sightseeing to Frida Kahlo-related sites for a flat fee of $1,865. Some of the sites featured in the tour include a studio Frida Kahlo shared with Diego Rivera, the Frida Kahlo Museum, the Palace of Fine Arts, and a day trip to the cities of Puebla and Cholula.
