Planning a dream vacation doesn't have to be a nightmare. When you're not sure where to begin, or just don't have hours to spend digging for information, let me handle the details.
Each trip begins with a phone call to discuss what matters most to you. Your preferences, wishes, comforts and concerns, and budget.
Our conversation helps me design a trip unique to your interests and needs, partering with a global network of trusted, vetted suppliers who provide local expertise, support, and exclusive perks. We'll present you with options and pricing to consider until you're ready to finalize your itinerary.
We'll secure all your accommodations, activities and services. Before your trip, I'll present all your travel documents and confirmations in a user-friendly smart phone app that's always at hand. Bonus: It also has area guides for great tips on dining and local attractions.
Travel with confidence and peace of mind. The details have been taken care of, and - because the unexpected happens - support is always available to you should you need it.
These are itineraries prepared for real clients (minus client-specific details). They can serve as inspiration, and offer a glimpse into what's possible when working with the right partners.
What's old can be new! There are so many ways to explore and enjoy Europe's multi-layered history and cultures.
Sailing the seven seas, gliding along a scenic river, or exploring the Antarctic, there's a cruise for every age and mood. Pre- and post-cruise extensions can enhance the journey with opportunities to explore deeper.
My lifelong love of travel began at age eight, with a family trip to Israel and the U.K. In the decades since, I've explored many parts of the globe as a visitor, student, and professional.
From childhood through graduate school, I dedicated myself to the study of foreign languages and cultures, carrying these interests into my working life. Years of involvement with arts organizations, both as a volunteer and professional, introduced me to new sights, sounds, and experiences, shaping my appreciation for the 'wow' factor, and for the importance of personalized stewardship. I aim to bring a special touch and the joy of discovery to each trip I plan, whether for individuals or small groups.
I grew up in Maine, and through the years have lived in Washington, DC, Aspen, San Francisco and Santa Fe, enjoying the many gifts of those diverse locales. Chicago is now the city that my husband and I call home.
