Some people are drawn to Peru by photos of Machu Picchu. Others come for the cuisine, culture or the promise of adventure. For me, Peru is each of these things and something more!
Peru is a country that has shaped me personally and professionally and continues to inspire me. I’ve spent extensive time immersed in Peru’s landscapes and even had the opportunity to reside in Cusco, a city offering a living connection to the country’s rich past and vibrant present. I learned to navigate its cobblestone streets like a local, formed relationships with residents and discovered places / perspectives that most tourists never see.
My journey has centered around connecting others to the magic of Peru. Whether its savoring ceviche at a Michelin-level restaurant in Lima, exploring pre-Columbian ruins, cruising through the wildlife-rich waters of the Islas Ballestas (AKA “Mini Galapagos”) or guiding clients to a peaceful, family-run ecolodge in the Andes, my mission is to design journeys that are deeply enriching, flawlessly executed and utterly unforgettable.
I specialize in luxury, adventure and eco-tourism - three areas where Peru truly excels. My approach combines logistical precision with personal insight.
I’m always on the lookout for what’s new, what’s emerging and what’s worth returning to time and again. If you’re looking for someone who knows Peru inside and out (and who can turn your dream trip into a seamless reality) give me a call or send me an e-mail today!

The Galápagos Islands are like nowhere else on Earth—a place where blue-footed boobies dance on lava rocks, Humboldt penguins dart through crystal-clear waters (swimming with them was my personal favorite part of the trip), and sea lions nap on the docks, making you step over them as you board your water taxi. I design trips that balance luxury with adventure, from elegant expedition yachts to guided hikes up volcanic craters with sweeping ocean views. As a travel specialist, I focus on eco-conscious experiences that bring you close to the islands’ one-of-a-kind wildlife while respecting the fragile ecosystem that makes this place so extraordinary. Whether you’re snorkeling with sea turtles, kayaking through mangroves, or relaxing on the deck of a five-star ship, I’ll help make your journey to the Galápagos seamless, immersive, and unforgettable. Let’s create your once-in-a-lifetime adventure—done the right way.

Portugal is effortlessly elegant—where old-world charm and modern sophistication blend seamlessly against a backdrop of golden light, ocean breezes, and timeless traditions. It’s a country that invites you to slow down, savor, and fall in love—with the food, the views, the rhythm of daily life. After exploring Portugal deeply, I’ve come to see it as one of Europe’s most quietly luxurious destinations—and one of my favorite places to plan unforgettable travel.
In Lisbon, Portugal’s capital, history and innovation coexist on every corner. You'll wander through mosaic-tiled alleyways in Alfama, ride iconic yellow trams past pastel buildings, and take in sweeping views of the city from hilltop miradouros. The food scene here is extraordinary—fresh seafood, Michelin-starred tasting menus, and tiny taverns where you’ll hear live fado music echoing through the night. The hotel scene is just as rich: restored palaces and 18th-century townhouses now serve as boutique luxury stays, where every tile and terrace tells a story.
Just a short drive or train ride away lies Sintra, a romantic dreamscape of misty forests, colorful palaces, and ornate gardens nestled in the hills. This is the kind of place that feels lifted from a storybook. I love curating experiences here that include private tours of Palácio da Pena and Quinta da Regaleira, followed by a night or two in a countryside estate where you can sip port by the fireplace and watch the fog roll in from the mountains.
Traveling north, Porto offers a different kind of magic. Built along the Douro River, the city is full of atmospheric charm: medieval streets, riverside promenades, and a vibrant energy that pulses through every café and wine bar. Here, I help clients discover Porto’s unique mix of grit and elegance—from its cutting-edge architecture and boutique shopping districts to the world-renowned port wine cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, where private tastings and sunset cruises can be seamlessly arranged.
No trip to Portugal is complete without time in the Douro River Valley, one of the most stunning wine regions in the world. Terraced vineyards climb steep hillsides above the river, creating a cinematic backdrop for wine tastings, gourmet meals, and leisurely river cruises. I specialize in crafting immersive experiences in the Douro that go far beyond the ordinary—think private vineyard lunches, curated cellar tours with top sommeliers, and overnight stays in hillside quintas (wine estates) that blend rustic charm with five-star comfort.
Let’s not forget the southern coast. Portugal’s Algarve region is a sun-drenched paradise of golden cliffs, hidden coves, and laid-back beach towns. For clients seeking coastal luxury, I recommend secluded resorts with oceanfront suites, private yacht charters along the coastline, and guided excursions to explore sea caves and traditional fishing villages. The Algarve offers relaxation and indulgence in equal measure—perfect for honeymoons, wellness retreats, or multigenerational escapes.Portugal is also incredibly easy to pair with neighboring destinations like Spain or Morocco, and I often design multi-country itineraries that flow seamlessly between cultures and landscapes. Whether you're focused on Portugal alone or tying it into a broader journey, my goal is always the same: to make your experience feel effortless, elegant, and deeply personal.
I work with travelers who want more than just a checklist—they want meaning, beauty, and a sense of place. Whether you’re planning your first trip to Portugal or returning for something deeper and more tailored, I’ll help you uncover the best of this timeless destination, at your perfect pace.If you’re ready to experience Portugal in a way that’s curated, immersive, and unforgettable, I’d be honored to craft your perfect journey.

I specialize in crafting unforgettable getaways to Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cape Cod—three destinations where coastal charm meets timeless New England elegance.
I spent an entire summer living on Martha’s Vineyard, fully immersed in the rhythms of island life. That season gave me more than just a suntan; it gave me insider knowledge and a deep love for this part of the world. From early-morning beach walks in Edgartown to sunset dinners in Menemsha, from sailing past lighthouses to discovering hidden art galleries, I experienced it all—and I bring that same passion and local know-how to every itinerary I create.Whether you're dreaming of a romantic weekend tucked away in a whitewashed inn, a luxurious beachfront escape with all the comforts, or a multi-generational family vacation full of sandcastles, seafood, and seaside adventures, I know how to match each traveler with the perfect corner of the coast. My clients trust me to plan with care, creativity, and a deep understanding of what makes a New England summer so magical.
Martha’s Vineyard is my specialty, and it never fails to captivate. The island is a world of contrasts: colorful gingerbread cottages in Oak Bluffs, the understated grace of Edgartown’s historic homes, the rugged beauty of Aquinnah’s cliffs, and the pastoral calm of up-Island roads. I’ll help you discover its quieter, more soulful side—think boutique inns, private yoga sessions overlooking the ocean, hidden beaches, and chef’s-table dining at under-the-radar spots. Because I spent a full season on the island, I have trusted relationships with locals—from innkeepers and sailing captains to chefs and artists—which means I can offer my clients special experiences that go beyond the typical itinerary.
Nantucket, with its cobblestone streets and weathered shingle cottages, offers its own brand of coastal sophistication. It’s a place where time slows down and elegance is effortless. I love helping clients tap into its refined charm—curated shopping strolls, scenic bike rides to Sconset, cocktail hours at harborside inns, and reservations at the island’s most beloved restaurants. Whether you arrive by ferry or private plane, I’ll make sure every detail of your stay is smooth, stylish, and stress-free.
And then there’s Cape Cod—stretching out into the Atlantic like a curled arm, dotted with charming villages, sweeping beaches, and iconic lighthouses. From the upscale calm of Chatham to the creative energy of Provincetown, the Cape offers endless options for exploration and relaxation. I can arrange everything from private whale-watching tours and oyster farm tastings to beach bonfires and art walks.From ferry transfers and boutique stays to sunset sails and hidden local gems, I handle every detail so you can simply enjoy the moment. My clients come to me for personalized service, custom itineraries, and local expertise that turns a simple trip into something truly special.Planning your escape to the Massachusetts coast should be just as peaceful as being there.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone, escaping for a quiet retreat, or introducing your family to the magic of New England summers, I’ll create a seamless experience filled with beauty, culture, and unforgettable memories.Let me show you the elegant side of island and coastal life—where luxury feels relaxed, every sunset feels cinematic, and every day ends with salty air and a sense of calm.

Costa Rica’s Pacific coast offers more than just breathtaking beaches—it’s where wild jungle meets barefoot luxury. Imagine waking up in a private hillside villa, monkeys chattering in the canopy, with the ocean stretching out below. From the golden sands of Santa Teresa and Tamarindo to the lush rain forests of Manuel Antonio and the Papagayo Peninsula, this region blends world-class beaches with high-end eco-lodges and jungle retreats. I’ve explored this coastline myself and know how to design trips that balance adventure, wellness, and indulgence. Whether you're zip-lining through the treetops, enjoying a spa day in the rain forest, or sipping cocktails at a beachfront infinity pool, I’ll help craft a personalized, seamless escape rooted in Costa Rica’s natural beauty. If you’re ready for luxury travel with a wild twist, let’s bring your pura vida dream to life.

Montana has a way of getting under your skin—in the best possible way. I spent part of a month-long road trip winding through this state, and the stretch between Bozeman and Glacier National Park left one of the deepest impressions. It’s a place of wild beauty and warm hospitality, where rugged landscapes meet small-town charm, and every moment feels like it belongs in a nature documentary—or a glossy travel magazine. Whether you want to hike through alpine meadows, sail across turquoise lakes, or simply breathe in the fresh mountain air from the comfort of a luxury lodge, this part of Montana offers an experience that’s as grounding as it is unforgettable.
Bozeman is where many journeys begin, and it’s so much more than just a gateway. This modern mountain town blends Western soul with a fresh, creative energy. Think hip cafes, locally sourced fine dining, stylish boutique hotels, and an arts scene that punches far above its weight. It’s the perfect place to unwind before or after exploring the wilds of Montana—and with its close proximity to both Yellowstone and Glacier, it makes an excellent home base for a longer, curated itinerary through the region. Whether you're strolling through downtown’s art galleries or heading out for a private fly-fishing lesson on the Gallatin River, Bozeman gives you the best of Montana in one compact, effortlessly cool package.
As you move north, the landscape shifts from rolling hills to dramatic peaks, signaling your arrival in Glacier National Park—one of the most awe-inspiring places I’ve ever visited. This is where ancient glaciers carved deep valleys, crystal-clear lakes shimmer beneath rugged cliffs, and wildflowers bloom beneath towering cedars. The Going-to-the-Sun Road alone is worth the trip—a bucket-list drive that winds through alpine passes, past waterfalls, and along cliff-hugging curves with views that make you stop the car just to take it all in.
I specialize in helping travelers experience Glacier in ways that feel exclusive, immersive, and effortless. That might mean a private boating experience on Lake McDonald, guided hikes that take you beyond the crowds to hidden lakes and panoramic vistas, or curated lodging that blends rustic elegance with creature comforts. The park’s short season makes thoughtful planning essential—and my insider knowledge ensures you’ll make the most of every moment, whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with family.
Just outside the park, the town of Whitefish offers the perfect blend of laid-back charm and quiet sophistication. It’s one of my favorite towns in Montana—a place where you can wake up to mountain views, explore local boutiques and wine bars, and end the day in a lakeside resort that feels like your own private hideaway. From here, it's easy to arrange scenic train rides, e-bike tours, golf outings, or a day on Whitefish Lake. If you’re visiting in late summer or early fall, the golden light and crisp air make it one of the most beautiful—and peaceful—times to explore the region.
Montana is for travelers who crave space, beauty, and authenticity—but that doesn’t mean sacrificing luxury. I design itineraries that reflect your pace and priorities, combining natural wonders with thoughtful details: private transfers, exclusive access, exceptional accommodations, and one-of-a-kind experiences that turn a great trip into a life-long memory.If you’re ready to discover Montana’s wild beauty—from Bozeman’s modern mountain vibe to the glacial majesty of the north—I’d be honored to create a journey that’s as seamless as it is spectacular.

South Carolina is a place of contrast and beauty — where historic cities meet quiet beaches, where mountain towns give way to Lowcountry marshes, and where the pace of life invites you to slow down and savor every moment. It’s a destination filled with diverse landscapes, rich culture, and deep-rooted hospitality. Whether you’re planning your first trip or returning to explore more, I help families and couples design custom itineraries that reflect the state’s unique rhythm—relaxed, enriching, and unforgettable.
I lived in Greenville for nearly a decade, and I’ve spent years exploring the best of what South Carolina has to offer—from the waterfalls of the Upstate to the sun-drenched shores of the coast. Let me help you experience it through the eyes of someone who knows and loves it deeply.
Greenville: Mountain Views, Walkable Charm, and Outdoor Fun
Greenville is a gem in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, offering the perfect balance of small-town warmth and city energy. Its walkable downtown is filled with locally owned shops, award-winning restaurants, public art, and green spaces that invite you to linger. Families love Falls Park on the Reedy, with its dramatic suspension bridge and waterfall views, as well as the Swamp Rabbit Trail—a 20-mile greenway that connects the city to the nearby town of Travelers Rest, perfect for biking and exploring at your own pace.From morning coffee at a sidewalk café to afternoon ice cream stops, family-friendly breweries, and spacious parks, Greenville offers the kind of laid-back luxury that makes every generation feel welcome. I’ll help you design a stay that includes just the right mix of activity and ease.
Charleston: History, Culture, and Coastal Sophistication
Charleston is a city that blends elegance with approachability. Cobblestone streets, pastel houses, historic landmarks, and award-winning food make it a feast for the senses. For families, Charleston offers rich cultural experiences with plenty of fun—from boat rides to Fort Sumter and visits to the South Carolina Aquarium to private walking tours, pirate cruises, and horse-drawn carriage rides.You can stay in the heart of the Historic District or choose a beachside rental in Isle of Palms or Sullivan’s Island—just minutes from the city, but a world away in vibe. I can coordinate everything from ghost tours and shrimp boils to fine dining reservations and nature walks through cypress swamps. Charleston is the kind of place where memories are made at every turn.
Myrtle Beach: Classic Family Fun with a Coastal Twist
Myrtle Beach delivers the kind of nostalgic family vacation that’s hard to beat: think wide sandy beaches, beachfront resorts, boardwalk attractions, and live entertainment for all ages. But there’s also a more refined side to explore—upscale dining, golf resorts, peaceful state parks, and eco-cruises through coastal estuaries.Whether your family wants to spend all day by the ocean, explore amusement parks and aquariums, or unwind at a spacious resort with a lazy river and poolside cabana, I’ll help you choose the perfect accommodations and activities to keep everyone happy—from toddlers to grandparents.
Beaufort: Southern Charm and Lowcountry Beauty
Tucked between Charleston and Savannah, Beaufort is a quieter coastal town full of Southern charm, Spanish moss-draped oak trees, and waterfront views. It’s ideal for families seeking a slower pace and rich storytelling. Kids can enjoy dolphin cruises, kayaking through tidal creeks, or exploring historic forts, while adults will appreciate the antebellum architecture, art galleries, and locally owned cafés.This is the kind of place where you stroll rather than rush, where history is layered into the landscape, and where every sunset feels like a private show. I love recommending Beaufort as part of a longer South Carolina journey—it’s a peaceful, picturesque stop that leaves a lasting impression.
Why Travel with Me?
Because I’ve lived in South Carolina and spent years exploring every corner of the state, I offer more than just trip planning—I offer true local insight. I specialize in creating seamless, custom experiences that reflect your family’s interests and travel style. Whether you want a long weekend escape or a multi-stop adventure through the Upstate and the coast, I’ll handle the details so you can focus on making memories.Let me show you the soulful, scenic, and unforgettable side of South Carolina — designed just for you.
Guatemala is a country that grabs hold of your heart—and stays with you long after you leave....
Guatemala is a country that grabs hold of your heart—and stays with you long after you leave. I spent an entire summer there, and in that time, I experienced a world of contrasts: towering volcanoes and tranquil lakes, bustling markets and quiet villages, ancient ruins and vibrant modern life. It’s a place where Mayan culture isn’t just remembered—it’s alive, spoken, worn, cooked, danced, and honored.Whether you’re drawn by the lure of adventure, the richness of tradition, or the serenity of natural beauty, I design personalized Guatemala itineraries that feel soulful, immersive, and seamless. From boutique eco-lodges on the shores of Lake Atitlán to sunrise hikes through the jungle ruins of Tikal, I help travelers experience the country with care, insight, and wonder.
Antigua: Colonial Charm and Volcano Views
Antigua is where most journeys begin—and it’s one of my favorite places in the world. Set against the dramatic backdrop of surrounding volcanoes, this UNESCO-listed city blends cobblestone streets, colorful façades, flower-filled courtyards, and beautifully restored colonial buildings. Whether you’re sipping coffee in a café with a volcano view or exploring centuries-old church ruins, Antigua feels timeless.I love matching clients with intimate boutique hotels and private villas that reflect the city’s elegance and warmth. Families can enjoy chocolate workshops, museum visits, and local cooking classes. Couples will find plenty of romance in candlelit courtyards and rooftop restaurants with views of Volcán Agua glowing at dusk.
Volcán Acatenango: A Bucket-List Hike and Fiery Show
For travelers craving adventure, few experiences compare to summiting Volcán Acatenango and standing face to face with an erupting volcano. I made this trek myself—a challenging overnight hike through cloud forest and alpine trails—and it’s one of the most unforgettable things I’ve ever done.From the base camp near the summit, I stood on the edge of the crater as Volcán Fuego, just across the valley, erupted in the night—sending bursts of molten lava and ash into the sky every 15 minutes. The sound, the heat, the raw power of it—it was otherworldly. For fit and adventurous travelers, I can coordinate expert-led expeditions with quality gear, porters, and cozy mountain camps where hot meals and sleeping bags await.
Lake Atitlán: Spiritual Serenity and Scenic Wonder
Ringed by volcanoes and dotted with indigenous villages, Lake Atitlán is one of Guatemala’s crown jewels. I help clients choose the right village for their vibe—whether it’s the peaceful seclusion of Santa Cruz, the boho-yoga energy of San Marcos, or the artsy, community-rich feel of San Juan. Many of the best accommodations are accessible only by boat and offer lakefront tranquility with volcano views.Families love the boat tours, artisan visits, and gentle hikes. Couples enjoy the calm, the sunsets, and the fresh, locally sourced cuisine. Lake Atitlán isn’t just beautiful—it’s soulful.
Tikal: Ancient Temples in a Living Jungle
Deep in the Petén rainforest, the ruins of Tikal rise above the jungle canopy, whispering stories from over 1,000 years ago. I recommend a sunrise tour with a private guide—there’s something magical about watching the mist lift from the temples as howler monkeys roar in the distance.Nearby eco-lodges offer quiet luxury, wildlife spotting, and easy access to additional sites like Yaxhá, which often feels like a private discovery. For families, this is an unforgettable mix of history and adventure. For anyone with a curious mind, Tikal is awe-inspiring.
Chichicastenango, Guatemala City, and Beyond
Chichicastenango’s famous market is a living mosaic of Mayan culture—bright textiles, wooden masks, fresh flowers, and spiritual traditions in full color. It’s a great day trip or overnight for those interested in immersive cultural experiences.Guatemala City is often overlooked, but with the right guidance, it offers modern art, exceptional cuisine, and hidden gems worth exploring. I also recommend Rio Dulce and Livingston for those with more time—off-the-beaten-path regions rich in biodiversity, Caribbean culture, and river-to-sea adventure.
Travel Deeper, Travel Better
Guatemala is layered, soulful, and endlessly rewarding. I create journeys that go beyond the tourist trail—connecting travelers with the heart of the country while providing comfort, ease, and insider access every step of the way. Whether you’re planning a honeymoon, a family adventure, or a meaningful solo retreat, I’ll help you discover the most magical version of Guatemala—customized just for you.
Colombia is vibrant, diverse, and endlessly captivating—a country where bold colors, rich culture, and unexpected luxury come...
Colombia is vibrant, diverse, and endlessly captivating—a country where bold colors, rich culture, and unexpected luxury come together to create one of South America's most exciting destinations. I spent several months exploring Colombia, and it quickly became one of those places that stays with you long after you leave. The energy is contagious, the landscapes are wildly varied, and the warmth of the people makes you feel like family. Whether you're drawn to the Caribbean coast, the cloud forests of the coffee region, or the pulse of the cities, I specialize in crafting seamless, high-end journeys that capture Colombia’s beauty, depth, and soul.
Let’s start with Cartagena, a city that feels like a living postcard. Within its walled Old Town, cobblestone streets wind past flower-draped balconies, pastel-colored mansions, and boutique hotels tucked behind 17th-century facades. This is a place where history meets indulgence—where you can spend the morning on a walking tour of colonial landmarks and the evening sipping champagne on a rooftop terrace overlooking the sea. Just offshore, the Rosario Islands offer the perfect island escape: white sand beaches, overwater bungalows, and luxury catamaran charters that make for an unforgettable day trip—or an extended stay in paradise.
Then there’s Medellín, a city that has completely transformed itself over the past two decades. Nestled in a valley surrounded by lush green hills, Medellín is modern, artistic, and full of life—with year-round spring weather that’s earned it the nickname “City of Eternal Spring.” Here, you’ll find upscale dining, chic rooftop bars, world-class museums, and a strong sense of innovation and pride. One of my favorite day trips is to Guatapé, just a couple hours from the city. This colorful lakeside town is bursting with charm—vibrant murals, boutique guesthouses, and that iconic climb up El Peñol rock, where sweeping views of the water and surrounding islands take your breath away.
Beyond the cities, Colombia’s Coffee Triangle is a world of its own. Rolling green hills, misty cloud forests, and picturesque fincas (coffee farms) offer a slower, more grounded experience. I love pairing high-end hacienda stays with curated experiences like coffee tastings, horseback rides through the hills, or guided hikes to hidden waterfalls. It’s a part of the country that invites you to slow down and savor every detail—whether that’s a freshly brewed cup of local coffee, a warm arepa, or the morning mist rising over a valley of orchids and palms.
Now, with new luxury river cruises navigating the country’s more remote waterways—from the mighty Magdalena River to lesser-known jungle routes—Colombia is opening up in exciting, immersive ways. These journeys bring you face-to-face with the country’s raw natural beauty and vibrant local cultures, all while enjoying elevated comfort and service.
Colombia is ideal for travelers looking for something beyond the expected—whether it’s a honeymoon that mixes Caribbean glamour with mountain serenity, a family trip packed with culture and adventure, or a solo escape focused on food, wellness, and art. I use my firsthand knowledge and insider connections to design journeys that are deeply personal, highly curated, and completely effortless for you.If you're ready to discover Colombia in all its color, charm, and contrast, I’d be honored to craft a trip that’s as dynamic and unforgettable as the country itself. Whether you want to explore cities, unwind by the Caribbean, or sail through the heart of the jungle, I’ll help craft a seamless, unforgettable journey tailored just for you.
Panama is a country of contrasts—in the best possible way. It’s where sleek, cosmopolitan cityscapes meet untouched...
Panama is a country of contrasts—in the best possible way. It’s where sleek, cosmopolitan cityscapes meet untouched islands and jungle-lined shores. It’s modern yet wild, luxurious yet authentic, and full of surprises at every turn. I always tell my clients: if you want a destination that truly has it all, Panama delivers. Whether you’re drawn to the dynamic energy of Panama City or the barefoot magic of Bocas del Toro, I create journeys that weave together the country’s most captivating elements—effortlessly and exclusively.
Let’s start in Panama City. This is one of Central America’s most exciting urban hubs, with luxury high-rises, award-winning restaurants, a booming arts scene, and rooftop bars with skyline views that rival those in Miami or Dubai. It’s a place where history and modernity sit side by side. One minute you’re exploring the cobblestone streets of Casco Viejo—Panama’s beautifully restored colonial quarter—and the next you’re sipping cocktails in a sky lounge overlooking the Pacific. And of course, no visit would be complete without a private tour of the iconic Panama Canal—an engineering marvel that continues to shape the world.
For me, the real magic of Panama lies far from the city. Bocas del Toro, in particular, is my favorite place in the world. Located on the Caribbean side, this island chain is pure barefoot luxury. Imagine staying in an overwater bungalow, waking up to dolphins swimming past your deck, spending your days snorkeling coral reefs, and your evenings sipping cocktails while the jungle hums in the background. It’s laid-back, colorful, and full of hidden corners I love to share—secret beaches, family-run ecolodges, and local guides who know the best places to see sloths in the trees or bioluminescence in the water.
Then there’s Boquete, tucked high in the cloud forests of the Chiriquí Highlands. This is where Panama’s best coffee is grown, and the cool mountain air offers the perfect contrast to the coast. I often recommend a few days here for clients who love hiking, birdwatching, or simply unwinding in a lush, peaceful setting. Private coffee estate tours, waterfall hikes, and stays at luxury jungle lodges with spa treatments and panoramic views—it’s the perfect way to recharge.
For true off-the-grid indulgence? The Pearl Islands or the San Blas archipelago. These remote islands feel like the edge of the earth—in the most luxurious way. San Blas, in particular, is special because it’s home to the indigenous Guna Yala people, who have protected the region’s traditions and natural beauty for centuries. Here, I design fully customized, culturally respectful stays that combine comfort with immersion—whether by private catamaran or exclusive ecolodge.
I specialize in crafting high-end, fully customized journeys through Panama—ones that blend urban sophistication with eco-luxury and authentic cultural encounters. My clients come to me for seamless logistics, exclusive access, and curated experiences they won’t find in a guidebook. Whether it’s a private canal cruise, a wellness retreat in the rainforest, or a multi-stop itinerary connecting city, sea, and sky, I handle every detail so the trip feels effortless.If you’re ready to discover a destination that’s as dynamic, diverse, and beautiful as it is under-the-radar, Panama is waiting—and I’d be honored to plan a trip that’s as unforgettable as the place itself.

Italy is one of those rare places that lives up to every expectation—then exceeds them. With its ancient cities, rolling vineyards, seaside villages, and culinary traditions that feel like an art form, Italy is more than a destination. It’s a feeling. Every traveler connects with it in their own way, and that’s what makes planning trips here so special. I’ve had the opportunity to explore Italy firsthand, and I love helping others experience it in a way that feels personal, immersive, and unforgettable.
Italy isn’t just about seeing the sights—it’s about slowing down and savoring them. In cities like Florence, Venice, and Rome, the past meets the present in the most striking ways. One minute you’re standing before centuries-old frescoes or walking through grand piazzas, and the next you’re sipping espresso at a tiny café or shopping for handcrafted goods in a tucked-away boutique. The experience can be as elevated or as down-to-earth as you’d like—and with the right planning, it’s both.
Outside the cities, Italy offers extraordinary variety. The Tuscan countryside rolls with vineyards, olive groves, and farmhouses-turned-luxury estates, perfect for food and wine lovers. Along the Amalfi Coast and in places like Capri or Cinque Terre, dramatic cliffs, lemon groves, and colorful seaside towns create a romantic atmosphere that feels almost cinematic. In the north, the lakes and the Dolomites offer alpine serenity and elegant mountain hospitality, while southern regions like Puglia and Sicily bring their own rhythm—warmer, slower, deeply rooted in tradition.
Whether you’re interested in private tastings at boutique wineries, hands-on cooking classes with local chefs, or guided walks through iconic ruins, every journey to Italy can be curated to match your pace and your passions. Luxury here doesn’t just mean five-star hotels (though there are plenty); it’s the richness of experience—staying in a restored villa, hearing stories from a local guide, or being welcomed like family at a countryside inn.
Italy invites you to connect—through food, through history, through beauty—and I’m here to help you do just that. From romantic escapes to multi-generational adventures, I’ll design your trip with care, creativity, and insight. Every itinerary is customized so that your time in Italy feels seamless, meaningful, and truly yours.Let’s bring your Italian journey to life—one plate of pasta, one piazza, one perfect moment at a time.

Spain is a country that knows how to live well. From its sun-drenched coastlines to its medieval hill towns, from world-class museums to vineyard-covered valleys, every region offers its own rhythm, flavor, and soul. I’ve had the pleasure of traveling through Spain, and each visit has deepened my love for its diversity—of landscapes, languages, traditions, and experiences. Whether you're chasing art, architecture, cuisine, or coastlines, I’m here to craft a trip that captures the essence of this beautiful country in a way that feels personal and unforgettable.In Barcelona, the streets curve with creativity. Gaudí’s surreal architecture rises like dreams from the ground, and every corner reveals a new plaza, market, or café. The city pulses with design, energy, and style—yet the Mediterranean is never far away. It’s a place to slow down over tapas and cava, to wander Gothic alleyways, and to stay in elegant hotels that blend old-world charm with contemporary flair.Madrid, Spain’s capital, offers a different kind of richness. Think grand boulevards, royal palaces, and museums filled with masterworks by Goya, Velázquez, and Picasso. This is a city that honors tradition while living fully in the present. The food scene is as bold as the art—whether you’re dining in historic taverns or Michelin-starred restaurants. Madrid has a way of making visitors feel both at home and completely inspired.Venture beyond the cities, and Spain opens up in surprising ways. In Andalusia, whitewashed villages cling to hillsides, flamenco echoes in courtyards, and Moorish palaces tell stories of centuries past. In the Basque Country, rugged coastlines meet bold cuisine in places like San Sebastián, where the food alone is worth the journey. In La Rioja and Ribera del Duero, wine regions welcome travelers with intimate tastings, vineyard stays, and some of Europe’s best red wines.
Spain also knows how to slow down. On islands like Mallorca and Menorca, travelers find crystal-clear coves, olive groves, and stylish boutique hotels tucked into the hills. In the countryside, luxury paradores—historic monasteries and castles turned into elegant accommodations—offer a taste of Spain’s deep-rooted heritage with five-star comfort.
No matter the pace or the path, Spain offers the perfect canvas for every kind of traveler. Whether you want to explore world-class cities, unwind along the coast, taste your way through wine country, or dive into centuries of history, I’ll help you navigate it all with insider knowledge and thoughtful planning. Every itinerary is tailored—designed to match your travel style and reveal the very best of Spain, one meaningful experience at a time.
Let’s turn your Spanish getaway into something unforgettable. From the first bite of jamón ibérico to your last sunset over the Mediterranean, Spain is a journey worth savoring.

Argentina is a country that invites you to go deeper—into its landscapes, its culture, and its way of life. From the wide boulevards of Buenos Aires to the vineyard-covered foothills of Mendoza, from the misty power of Iguazú Falls to the stillness of the open plains, Argentina offers travelers something rare: space to indulge, explore, and connect. I’ve had the opportunity to travel through this incredible country, and I love helping others discover just how rich and varied the experience can be.
In Buenos Aires, culture moves to its own rhythm. This city hums with elegance and energy, where historic cafés sit alongside cutting-edge galleries and tango isn’t just a dance—it’s part of the heartbeat of the streets. Neighborhoods like Recoleta, Palermo, and San Telmo each offer their own atmosphere, from classic and refined to creative and bohemian. Whether you want to stay in a stylish boutique hotel, take a private tango lesson, or explore the local food scene with a chef-led market tour, I design personalized itineraries that bring the city to life in a way that feels effortless and deeply authentic.

Or perhaps you'll venture off the beaten path to explore colorful canyons, high-altitude deserts, or hidden estancias where tradition meets comfort.Wherever your journey leads, I’m here to shape it around your travel style—whether that means luxury, adventure, relaxation, or all of the above. With expert planning, trusted partnerships, and firsthand insight, I’ll take care of the details so you can focus on the experience.

The Grand Canyon is one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders, carved over millions of years...
The Grand Canyon is one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders, carved over millions of years by the mighty Colorado River. Its vast scale and dramatic landscapes captivate every visitor, yet each rim offers a distinctly different way to experience this breathtaking masterpiece. Having explored all three rims extensively, I’m here to help you choose the perfect vantage point and craft a trip that matches your sense of adventure and style.
The South Rim is the most famous and accessible part of the canyon, offering iconic panoramic views that stretch as far as the eye can see. This rim is a hub of activity, with well-developed visitor centers, numerous hiking trails, and luxury lodges perched right on the canyon’s edge. Whether you want to stroll along the Rim Trail, embark on a challenging hike down the Bright Angel Trail, or simply soak in the sunrise or sunset over the vast canyon walls, the South Rim combines convenience with breathtaking beauty.
Travelers seeking a quieter, more secluded experience often choose the North Rim. Situated at a higher elevation and open seasonally, the North Rim boasts cooler temperatures and lush forests that provide a striking contrast to the desert vistas below. Trails like the North Kaibab Trail lead adventurers deep into the canyon, offering solitude and a connection to nature away from the crowds. The North Rim’s rustic lodges and limited facilities ensure an intimate, off-the-beaten-path atmosphere for those who want to escape the hustle and fully immerse themselves in the canyon’s grandeur.
The West Rim, located on the Hualapai Indian Reservation, offers a unique perspective and a range of thrilling experiences. Known for the Skywalk—a glass bridge extending over the canyon edge—this rim gives visitors a vertigo-inducing view straight down into the canyon. The West Rim is ideal for shorter visits and those interested in cultural experiences, including Native American heritage and traditional performances. Adventure seekers can also enjoy helicopter tours, river rafting, and ziplining, adding an exhilarating dimension to their Grand Canyon visit.
Each rim of the Grand Canyon offers something special, tailored to different travel styles and interests. Whether you prefer the accessibility and amenities of the South Rim, the solitude and cooler climate of the North Rim, or the cultural richness and adventure options of the West Rim, I can design a personalized itinerary that fits your preferences perfectly.
Let me help you unlock the full spectrum of experiences the Grand Canyon has to offer. Together, we’ll create a journey filled with unforgettable views, meaningful adventures, and moments that stay with you forever.

The Florida Keys are more than just a destination—they’re a mindset. Time slows, the water sparkles a...
The Florida Keys are more than just a destination—they’re a mindset. Time slows, the water sparkles a little brighter, and there’s a contagious sense of freedom that takes hold the moment you start driving down the Overseas Highway. As a Florida native who’s made countless trips to the Keys over the years, I know these islands intimately—from the best places to watch the sunset in Key West to the quietest beaches in Marathon. From the colorful streets of Key West to the peaceful waters around Marathon and Islamorada, the Keys offer a rare mix of tropical charm, laid-back luxury, and endless outdoor adventure. For travelers looking to unwind, unplug, and reconnect with what really matters, I love designing custom escapes that show off the best of this unique island chain.
Key West radiates positive energy like few other places in the world. It’s playful and bold, creative and unpretentious. Whether you’re sipping cocktails at a sunset celebration in Mallory Square, browsing art galleries on Whitehead Street, or catching a live acoustic set at a local bar, the island buzzes with the spirit of celebration. I always recommend clients take their time here—ride bikes through pastel-lined streets, visit Ernest Hemingway’s house, sample Cuban coffee, and soak up the “only in Key West” vibe that’s hard to describe but impossible to forget. It’s a place that encourages self-expression, spontaneity, and joy.Further up the island chain, Marathon and Islamorada offer a completely different—but equally beautiful—side of the Keys. The pace slows, the crowds thin, and the focus shifts to the water. These islands are a haven for fishing, boating, snorkeling, and sunset cruising. Islamorada, often called the “Sport Fishing Capital of the World,” is a dream for anglers and ocean lovers. Whether you’re reeling in tarpon on a guided charter or kayaking through mangrove tunnels, there’s no shortage of ways to connect with the sea.Marathon, nestled in the heart of the Keys, is beloved for its family-friendly atmosphere and relaxed feel. You’ll find waterfront restaurants where you can feed the tarpon, hidden beaches for lazy afternoons, and marine sanctuaries where sea turtles and dolphins steal the show. I help families and couples find just the right balance of activity and relaxation here—whether that means paddleboarding at sunrise or doing absolutely nothing at a private cabana by the pool.
For my clients, the accommodation experience in the Keys is just as important as the itinerary. I work with a carefully curated portfolio of waterfront resorts, private villas, and boutique island properties that offer exceptional service and picture-perfect settings. Imagine waking up to the sound of waves, sipping your morning coffee on your oceanfront balcony, or ending the day with a toes-in-the-sand dinner under the stars. I match each client with the resort that fits their style—whether it’s barefoot luxury, family comfort, or honeymoon-level romance.
Every trip I plan to the Florida Keys is tailored to the traveler. Some clients come for adventure—deep-sea fishing, scuba diving the coral reef, or jet-skiing through island channels. Others come to do as little as possible—sunbathe, spa, and sip tropical drinks with nowhere else to be. Many come for both, and I love creating itineraries that deliver that perfect blend of energy and ease.
The Florida Keys are a string of small islands with big personality. You don’t just visit—you breathe easier, smile more, and live a little lighter. Whether it’s a romantic long weekend in Key West, a family vacation full of sunshine and salt air, or a sport fishing trip you’ll talk about for years, I’ll help you experience the magic of the Keys with every detail handled.Let’s plan your escape to the Florida Keys—where the water’s always warm, the sunsets are unforgettable, and every day feels like a celebration of life.
Nashville isn’t just a place I send clients—it’s a place I once called home. I lived in...
Nashville isn’t just a place I send clients—it’s a place I once called home. I lived in Nashville for several years, and during that time, I fell in love with the rhythm of the city. It’s a place where creativity hums in every corner, hospitality is genuine, and the energy is both electric and easygoing. Whether you're planning a quick weekend escape, a music-lovers’ pilgrimage, or a stylish Southern getaway, I love designing custom Nashville experiences that balance its iconic highlights with the local gems only a former resident would know to share.Known as Music City, Nashville wears many hats. Of course, the live music scene is legendary—from the honky-tonks on Lower Broadway to intimate songwriter rounds at the Bluebird Café. I help my clients go beyond the crowds to find the performances that suit their style, whether that’s an upscale evening at the Ryman Auditorium, a rooftop DJ set, or a front-row seat at a hidden local venue where tomorrow’s stars are playing tonight. I also offer exclusive add-ons like backstage tours, VIP entry, or even guitar-making workshops for clients who want to dive deeper into the music.
Nashville’s charm doesn’t end at the stage. The city has grown into one of the most exciting culinary and cultural hubs in the South. From James Beard-nominated chefs reinventing Southern cuisine to cocktail bars that feel like secret hideaways, I help clients discover a side of Nashville that’s elevated, authentic, and delicious. Looking for the best hot chicken in town that won’t burn your taste buds? I’ve got you covered. Want a progressive dinner across Nashville’s trendiest neighborhoods? I’ll map it out, reservation and all.
Nashville is also home to some beautiful luxury hotels and boutique stays—from chic rooftop pools in the Gulch to historic mansions turned high-end inns in East Nashville. I work with top properties like The Joseph, Noelle, or the Thompson to ensure your stay is as memorable as your itinerary. Prefer a private vacation rental with charm and space for a group? I know which areas will give you character and convenience.
What really sets Nashville apart—and what I loved most while living there—is its unique blend of culture, creativity, and Southern soul. Clients often ask, “Is it really as fun as everyone says?” The answer is yes—but it can also be surprisingly peaceful, artistic, and even a bit glamorous. I’ve helped couples plan romantic getaways with spa days and candlelit dinners, groups organize girls’ weekends filled with live music and vintage shopping, and families enjoy behind-the-scenes tours, parks, and museums that bring the city’s history to life.
Whether you're drawn to the music, the food, the fashion, or the friendly vibe, I can help you experience Nashville in a way that feels effortless and unforgettable. Because I’ve lived it, I know how to help you feel like a local from the moment you arrive—and I know how to elevate every detail so that your trip hits just the right note.Let’s plan a Nashville escape that sings.

There’s something truly timeless about a family trip to the Smoky Mountains. It’s a place where generations gather, memories are made around campfires and roller coasters, and nature becomes both a playground and a classroom. From scenic hikes and black bear sightings to hands-on museums and thrilling rides, the Smokies offer a perfect mix of natural wonder and family fun. I specialize in planning travel experiences that bring families closer together, and the Great Smoky Mountains are one of my favorite destinations to recommend.Whether you’re visiting with toddlers, teens, grandparents, or a mix of all three, the Smoky Mountains offer something for everyone. As America’s most visited national park, Great Smoky Mountains National Park is bursting with accessible hiking trails, picnic spots, waterfalls, and wildlife viewing areas. I help families navigate the best spots for all skill levels—from stroller-friendly nature walks to rewarding scenic hikes like Clingmans Dome or Laurel Falls.Outside the park, the nearby towns of Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Sevierville are packed with family-friendly attractions and entertainment. I work with trusted partners to help you plan everything from Dollywood tickets to behind-the-scenes animal encounters at Ripley’s Aquarium. Whether your family is into mini golf, zip-lining, or old-fashioned mountain coasters, I make sure your itinerary strikes the perfect balance between excitement and downtime.
One of the best things about a Smoky Mountains family vacation is the flexibility—it can be as action-packed or laid-back as you like. I’ve helped families plan everything from cabin-based getaways with fire pits and game rooms to themed resort stays with pools, waterparks, and spa services for the adults. Looking for a vacation rental big enough for the whole crew? I can recommend and book family-friendly cabins with mountain views, fully equipped kitchens, and enough space to gather in comfort.
Food is also a big part of the fun in the Smokies. I guide my clients to the best pancake houses, down-home barbecue spots, and scenic picnic areas for al fresco family meals. For those wanting something more unique, I can arrange moonshine tastings for the adults, cooking classes for kids, or private chef services for special occasions.
If you’re celebrating a birthday, reunion, or milestone moment, the Smokies make an ideal backdrop. I specialize in building experiences around those moments—like guided horseback rides, private photography sessions, and tickets to a dinner theater show that will have the whole family laughing together.Beyond the attractions, the Smokies offer an opportunity to slow down and reconnect. Families can gather around a fire pit, watch fireflies light up the night, or learn about Appalachian history through ranger programs and visits to preserved homesteads. It’s the kind of destination that encourages unplugging and being present—something that’s more valuable than ever in today’s busy world.When I help families plan a Smoky Mountains vacation, I take into account every generation, interest, and comfort level. I handle the details so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying each other and the incredible setting around you.If you’re ready to plan a getaway where the kids are never bored, the adults feel recharged, and everyone leaves with stories to tell, the Smoky Mountains are calling. I’d love to help you design a trip filled with adventure, laughter, and unforgettable family moments.
Prague is a city that moves like a symphony—delicate in some moments, dramatic in others, always orchestrated...
Prague is a city that moves like a symphony—delicate in some moments, dramatic in others, always orchestrated with an Old World elegance that lingers long after your visit ends. Known as the “City of a Hundred Spires,” Prague is much more than its fairy-tale skyline. It’s a destination where the arts are revered, dining is an experience, and the rhythm of daily life still follows the graceful tempo of centuries past.My own travels to Prague were shaped by its rich theatrical heritage and remarkable cuisine—two worlds that merge beautifully in this city of timeless sophistication. For travelers who crave a blend of high culture and indulgence, I design Prague itineraries that are immersive, elevated, and unforgettable.
From the moment you arrive, Prague invites you to step into a storybook. The cobbled lanes of Old Town lead to jewel-box opera houses, candlelit wine bars, and dining rooms with vaulted ceilings that once hosted nobility. One of my favorite ways to experience the city is through its live performances. Prague’s cultural institutions are world-renowned for their beauty, history, and acoustics—from the opulent Estates Theatre where Mozart once conducted, to the neo-Renaissance splendor of the National Theatre. I help my clients secure VIP seats, behind-the-scenes tours, and curated pre-show dinners that turn a night at the opera into an entire evening of refined leisure.
The Czech Republic has always held performance in high regard, and in Prague, the stage is a sacred space. Whether you’re watching ballet beneath chandeliers, listening to chamber music in a 13th-century church, or attending a contemporary play in one of the city’s experimental theaters, there’s a depth to the artistry here that’s hard to match. I work with trusted local partners to arrange private cultural experiences—such as meeting performers after the show or enjoying a curated tasting menu inspired by the season’s repertoire.Of course, theater isn’t the only place where Prague masters the art of performance. Its culinary scene is equally impressive, offering a balance of traditional Czech flavors and global innovation. From Michelin-starred restaurants tucked inside historic buildings to modern tasting menus served with panoramic views of Prague Castle, I help travelers discover dining that is both elevated and rooted in place. Whether it’s a candlelit dinner in a baroque wine cellar or a riverside brunch with champagne and live jazz, I ensure that every meal becomes a memory.For those who want to dive deeper, I can arrange curated food and wine tours, private cooking classes, or craft beer tastings that reveal how far Czech cuisine has come from its hearty pub roots. Many of my clients are surprised to learn just how cosmopolitan—and luxurious—dining in Prague can be. It’s one of Europe’s most underrated food destinations, and I love guiding people through its layers of flavor and tradition.
Beyond the stage and the table, Prague dazzles with romantic architecture, riverside walks, and luxurious accommodations. I work with the city’s finest five-star hotels—places where you can return each night to warm lighting, attentive service, and views that glow with history. Whether you're celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, or simply treating yourself to a taste of European elegance, I tailor every detail to your travel style.
Prague is for the dreamers, the romantics, the lovers of culture and cuisine. It’s a place to dress up, slow down, and savor. If you're looking for a destination that offers depth, refinement, and magic at every turn, I would be honored to design your perfect journey to the Czech capital.

New Mexico is a place where the extraordinary feels everyday—a high desert dreamscape of fiery sunsets, ancient cultures, vibrant art, and raw, natural beauty. I don’t just recommend New Mexico as a destination; I’ve experienced its magic firsthand, including the unforgettable thrill of floating above Albuquerque in a hot air balloon at sunrise. It’s a moment I’ll never forget: the city below slowly waking up, the Sandia Mountains glowing pink in the morning light, and a sky filled with color and quiet wonder. It’s experiences like this that I love bringing to my clients—moments that leave you breathless in the best way.
As a travel advisor who specializes in luxury and experiential travel, I curate journeys that blend relaxation with meaning, indulgence with authenticity. New Mexico is uniquely suited for this kind of travel. Whether you’re looking for a romantic desert escape, a wellness-focused retreat, or an art- and culture-rich itinerary, I can help design a trip that captures the best of the Southwest while reflecting your personal travel style.One of my favorite areas to recommend is Santa Fe and its surrounding high desert communities. With its adobe architecture, world-class galleries, and culinary scene rooted in both tradition and innovation, Santa Fe is a cultural gem. What truly elevates a trip here are the luxury resorts tucked into the hills and canyons just outside the city. Places like Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado or the wellness-focused Ten Thousand Waves offer tranquility, top-tier service, and immersive surroundings. These properties create the perfect base for days spent exploring the historic Plaza, soaking in natural hot springs, or hiking among the red rocks.
Of course, no trip to New Mexico is complete without connecting to the land and its people. I help travelers go beyond the surface—visiting local pueblos, experiencing traditional Native American art and storytelling, and tasting heirloom chile varieties prepared by chefs who’ve turned New Mexican cuisine into a fine art. Whether it’s catching the sunset at Ghost Ranch or attending the Santa Fe Opera under the stars, I make sure every detail is handled so you can simply enjoy the journey.If you’re seeking a faster-paced getaway, Albuquerque offers a different kind of energy—especially during the International Balloon Fiesta, where hundreds of balloons fill the sky in one of the most visually spectacular events in the world. I can help you plan the perfect visit, including VIP balloon rides, preferred lodging with early morning launch views, and private tours of the surrounding area.
From private hot air balloon experiences to spa weekends at serene adobe resorts, New Mexico offers an incredible balance of luxury, culture, and nature. I love helping travelers uncover the magic of this lesser-known luxury destination—whether for a long weekend escape or a deeper exploration of the American Southwest.Let’s design a trip where the landscapes feel sacred, the pace slows down, and every day ends with a sky full of stars. New Mexico is waiting—and I’d love to help you discover its beauty, your way.
Whether you're dreaming of a quick weekend escape or an epic journey around South America, cruising offers...
Whether you're dreaming of a quick weekend escape or an epic journey around South America, cruising offers a seamless way to explore the world—and I’m here to help you make the most of it. I’ve experienced it all firsthand, from breezy three-night getaways to immersive 20+ day voyages along the dramatic coastlines of Patagonia, and I’ve fallen in love with the rhythm and richness of cruise travel.
Cruising is more than just a vacation; it’s a floating resort, a moving boutique hotel, and a gateway to world-class destinations—all rolled into one. One of the best parts? You unpack once, settle in, and let the adventure come to you. Whether you’re waking up to views of glacier-carved fjords or walking off the ship straight into a storybook European town, cruising removes the stress of constant transit while maximizing discovery.
My personal journeys have taken me from festive Caribbean ports to the windswept southern tip of South America, and each experience has added to my understanding of what makes each cruise line, ship, and itinerary unique. I’ve sailed with mainstream, premium, and luxury lines, and I help my clients match their travel style with the perfect cruise experience—whether that’s a family-friendly voyage with plenty of onboard activities or a serene, adults-only ship that prioritizes fine dining and cultural enrichment.
Luxury river cruises along the Danube, Rhine, Mekong, or Nile offer a more intimate, immersive style of exploration. Smaller ships mean you’re never far from the shoreline or the culture, and the slower pace gives you more time to connect with each destination. These ships often dock right in the heart of historic towns, so guests can step off and begin exploring almost instantly. River cruising is ideal for travelers who want comfort, culture, and connection—without the hassle of unpacking and repacking at every stop.
For those who crave something more adventurous, expedition cruises to Patagonia, Antarctica, or the Galápagos offer a balance of comfort and raw natural beauty. These journeys bring you face to face with landscapes and wildlife few ever see, with expert guides enhancing each moment. If luxury is your priority, I work with some of the world’s top cruise lines offering butler service, gourmet dining, exclusive excursions, and world-class wellness options onboard.Whether you're celebrating a milestone, planning a multi-generational family cruise, or seeking a romantic escape, I help travelers navigate all the options—from choosing the right ship and itinerary to securing exclusive perks and excursions. My goal is to curate cruise experiences that feel personalized, seamless, and unforgettable.
From ocean liners to intimate river vessels, I believe there’s a perfect cruise for everyone—and I’d love to help you find yours. Let’s plan a journey where the ship is just as extraordinary as the destinations it brings you to.

Utah: Where Wild Beauty Meets World-Class Adventure
Utah is where the raw power of nature and the elegance of the outdoors come together in perfect balance. From the towering red rock arches of Moab to the alpine refinement of Park City, Utah is a destination that speaks to adventurers, wellness seekers, and luxury travelers alike. It’s a place where you can hike through ancient canyons at sunrise and enjoy a five-star spa treatment by sunset—a seamless blend of wild and refined.
Moab: A Red Rock Playground for the Soul
I’ve spent a lot of time in Moab, and every visit deepens my appreciation for this one-of-a-kind desert town. It’s a place where the land speaks—where towering arches and surreal rock formations create a backdrop that feels both ancient and cinematic. Moab sits perfectly between two national treasures: Arches and Canyonlands. Arches National Park boasts over 2,000 natural arches, each glowing a little differently depending on the light. Canyonlands, just a short drive away, offers expansive views, dramatic canyons, and endless space to roam.What I love most about Moab is its balance of adrenaline and serenity. One day you’re rafting the Colorado River or riding world-famous slickrock trails, and the next you’re soaking up silence under a blanket of stars. You’ll find rustic-luxe lodging, creative Southwest cuisine, and local guides who can help you access the most awe-inspiring places—without the crowds.
Park City: Alpine Elegance with Year-Round CharmPark City is another place close to my heart. I’ve spent seasons here soaking in the rhythm of mountain life, and it never fails to impress. Known for its world-class skiing and the iconic Sundance Film Festival, Park City is just as magical in summer as it is in winter. Deer Valley and Park City Mountain Resort offer terrain for every level, and when the snow melts, the mountains become a paradise for hiking, biking, and outdoor concerts.The town itself is steeped in charm, from the historic Main Street lined with boutiques and galleries to the cozy wine bars and high-end restaurants tucked into alpine lodges. It’s easy to blend luxury and adventure here—whether you’re unwinding at a spa, indulging in a gourmet meal, or enjoying a private sleigh ride through the snow.What makes Park City special to me is its warmth—not just in the crackling fireplaces and hot tubs, but in the welcoming spirit of the community. It’s upscale without being pretentious, adventurous without being overwhelming, and it always feels like coming home.
The Mighty 5: Utah’s National ParksUtah is home to the iconic “Mighty 5”: Arches, Canyonlands, Bryce Canyon, Zion, and Capitol Reef. Each park tells its own story through stone and time. Bryce Canyon’s surreal amphitheaters of hoodoos glow like candlelit temples. Zion’s towering cliffs and hidden waterfalls feel sacred and still. Capitol Reef, the most underrated of the five, offers an off-the-beaten-path escape through orchards, domes, and crimson canyons.These parks are ideal for road trips and can be explored in comfort and style. Think luxury glamping beneath the stars, private guided hikes with expert naturalists, chef-prepared meals in the wild, and even scenic helicopter flights over red rock country. Whether you’re chasing epic views or moments of stillness, Utah delivers.
Let’s Craft Your Custom Utah Journey
Utah isn’t just somewhere I send clients—it’s a place I know, love, and return to often. When you work with me, you’re getting more than logistics.

California’s beauty is legendary—but what makes it unforgettable is how effortlessly it blends sophistication with laid-back charm....
California’s beauty is legendary—but what makes it unforgettable is how effortlessly it blends sophistication with laid-back charm. I specialize in crafting luxury getaways that spotlight the best of San Francisco, Napa, and Sonoma—three regions that offer distinctive flavors of California magic. Having explored this area in depth, I know how to turn a classic trip into something truly special, with private touches and seamless planning that elevate the experience from start to finish.
San Francisco is a city of contrasts—historic yet modern, quirky yet elegant. I help travelers uncover its layers, from iconic sights like the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island, to lesser-known neighborhoods filled with character, art, and exceptional dining. Imagine starting your day with a private walking tour of the Mission District’s vibrant murals and finishing with a waterfront dinner in Sausalito, reached by private ferry. Whether you're riding a cable car through Nob Hill, shopping along Union Square, or sampling artisanal bites at the Ferry Building Marketplace, I’ll ensure every detail is styled to your tastes.
From there, the magic continues in wine country, where rolling hills, vineyard-lined roads, and warm hospitality create the perfect escape. Napa Valley and Sonoma County each offer a unique take on the wine country experience. In Napa, I arrange private tastings at renowned estates, luxury accommodations with vineyard views, and exclusive experiences like blending your own bottle or enjoying a chef-led wine pairing dinner under the stars. Sonoma, with its more relaxed pace, is ideal for those seeking authenticity without sacrificing elegance—think family-run wineries, charming towns like Healdsburg, and hidden gem restaurants that rival the best in the state.My clients love that I take care of everything—from arranging chauffeured transfers between tastings, to booking spa retreats and hot air balloon rides over the valley. Whether it’s a romantic weekend, a girlfriends' getaway, or a milestone celebration, I customize every itinerary to match the mood and intention of the trip. I also curate unique add-ons like guided hikes through redwood forests, scenic drives along the Pacific Coast Highway, or sunset cruises on the Bay for travelers who want to go beyond the vineyard.
What sets California apart is the way it weaves together indulgence and inspiration. It’s about savoring a perfectly aged Cabernet while watching the fog roll over the hills—or finding the perfect vintage in a tucked-away boutique before heading to a rooftop lounge with sweeping city views. I design every trip to reflect that balance, creating experiences that are both relaxed and refined.California’s magic is in the details—and I know how to make them shine. If you're ready to explore the Golden State in style, I'd be honored to help you plan a journey that feels effortless, exclusive, and deeply memorable.

Wyoming is where the West still feels wild—and wonderfully alive. I spent part of a month-long road trip exploring this iconic state, and it left me with a deep respect for its vastness, its quiet majesty, and the way it effortlessly blends raw nature with refined experiences. From the untamed beauty of Yellowstone and the jagged grandeur of the Tetons, to the refined comforts of Jackson Hole and the storied spirit of Cody, Wyoming offers a kind of journey that feels both grounding and luxurious. It's a place where you can go from watching a geyser erupt at sunrise to sipping wine at a world-class lodge by night.
Yellowstone National Park is unlike anywhere else in the world. Geysers that breathe steam into the sky, technicolor hot springs, thundering waterfalls, and wide-open valleys teeming with bison and bears—it’s as dynamic as it is ancient. I help clients experience Yellowstone at its best: with expert guides who know where to spot wolves at dawn, thoughtfully paced itineraries that avoid the crowds, and handpicked accommodations just beyond the park that offer both comfort and a deep sense of place. Whether you're walking the boardwalks around Grand Prismatic Spring, fly-fishing a remote stretch of river, or enjoying a chef-prepared meal by a roaring fire, Yellowstone is a reminder that luxury and wilderness don’t have to be opposites.
Just to the south, Grand Teton National Park offers a different kind of drama. The Tetons rise in sharp relief from the valley floor, their reflection mirrored in still alpine lakes like Jenny Lake and String Lake. This is one of my favorite places to slow down and reconnect—with nature, with yourself, and with the people you’re traveling with. I often craft experiences here that pair scenic floats down the Snake River with private wildlife tours, horseback rides through wildflower meadows, and peaceful hikes that end with wine and a picnic overlooking a glacial vista.The nearby town of Jackson Hole is a destination in its own right—equal parts cowboy and cosmopolitan. Luxury lodges here offer world-class spas, heated outdoor pools with mountain views, and private chalets designed with natural materials and elevated details. Think après-hike cocktails by the fire, five-star dining inspired by the region, and access to both wilderness and culture. Art galleries, boutique shopping, and seasonal events make Jackson a year-round favorite for travelers who want both adventure and sophistication. I know the best stays, from iconic lodges like Amangani and Caldera House, to tucked-away hideouts with impeccable service and design.
For those craving a dose of Western tradition, Cody delivers with heart and grit. Founded by Buffalo Bill himself, this town brings the spirit of the frontier to life. The Cody Rodeo is one of the longest-running in the country, and it’s a thrill to watch—in part because it’s so genuine. It’s the kind of experience that connects you to the land and the people who have called it home for generations. I love building itineraries that pair Cody with a stay at an upscale ranch resort or a scenic drive through the Absaroka Mountains, offering both excitement and serenity in one seamless journey.Wyoming may be known for its big skies and open roads, but it’s also full of thoughtful, intimate moments—those perfectly brewed coffees at sunrise, the hush of a pine forest after a fresh snowfall, the joy of spotting a moose just off the trail. My job is to make sure you experience all of that, without having to worry about a single detail.
If you’re ready to explore the best of the American West—from geysers and glaciers to fine dining and rodeos—I’d be honored to craft a Wyoming journey that’s deeply wild, quietly luxurious, and completely unforgettable.

When I came to Joyce with a bucket-list idea to hike in Patagonia, I didn’t even know where to start. She created a custom route that included both the Argentina and Chile sides, secured all of our permits and transportation, and made the process so easy.

Every view was jaw-dropping and every transfer ran smoothly. Joyce nailed it.
We reached out to Joyce with only a vague idea of wanting to cruise Alaska. She helped us choose the right cruise line, room category, excursions, and even pre-cruise lodging in Seattle.

Joyce was fantastic — responsive, knowledgeable, and so easy to work with.
