Navigate Your Family toward a Journey as Unique as You Are with Expert Guidance
Why can trip planning be overwhelming?
The stakes are high and there is a huge amount of information and choice out there.
The advice and feedback you can get from friends and family may only give you part of the information you need and may not be specific to your traveling group.
The online search engines don’t allow you to filter enough to take in to account your family’s unique quirks.
It’s difficult to know what to believe and how to figure out if the reviews and pictures are legitimate or if they’re a marketing tactic trying to persuade to get your business.

Tailoring Conversation
Our journey together starts with an initial tailoring conversation where we work together to make sure your dream trip becomes a reality. I will help you figure out the perimeters of what the right fit trip is for you in order to narrow down your options and make decision-making easier.
During our consultation, we will discuss your travel preferences, budget, and timeline in detail. I will take the time to get to know your travel style, interests, and needs to ensure I provide recommendations that are tailored specifically to you. Together, we will determine if there are any next steps for us to take together on this journey.
My goal is to make sure your trip planning process is stress-free and enjoyable. With my expertise and personalized approach, I will work with you every step of the way to create a unique and memorable travel experience.
Personalized Research and Planning
Your journey with me continues with the research and planning stage where I work to find the best options for your dream vacation. My aim is to match your preferences and budget, while keeping your wish list in mind and weighing each item accordingly. I also check with my travel partners and industry professionals to find any exclusive offers and ensure that you are aware of any current travel advisories or restrictions that may impact your plans.
As your expert personal shopper, I save you time and find the best value for you, ensuring that your expectations match the results you will experience. During this stage, I present you with several options in an easy-to-navigate electronic format, including details on flights, accommodations, car rentals, excursion ideas, and cancellation terms. We will work together to tweak the options until the best option becomes clear and you are ready to commit to the trip.
Once you select the best option for you, I take care of all the administrative work to get your trip booked, including sending you a fill-in-the-blanks electronic registration form.
It's important to note that I don't have pre-conceived ideas about what the best trip is for every person. I approach each trip individually and work hard to provide several options that best fit each traveler's unique needs and preferences.
Seamless Trip Planning and Monitoring for a Stress-Free Experience
Ongoing monitoring is also a key part of my service to you. If there are any changes such of travel advisories or restrictions that could impact your trip, I will keep you informed and we will determine the best next steps together.
To ensure a smooth and stress-free experience, I will assist with seat selection for flights, make special requests on your behalf to your accommodations host and may provide printable guides and lists to help you in your preparations.
All necessary travel documents will be accessible to you through a convenient website and app, which will be updated in real-time, including any flight delays.
My goal is to take care of all the details so you can focus on spending quality time with your loved ones and fully immerse yourself in the destination. By having me in your corner, you can rest assured that you will have my help to handle any possible challenges, allowing you to have an unforgettable trip and strengthen your relationships.
