travel planning

Good news: hotel and cruise bookings are always complimentary. You get my expertise, my partner perks, and my full attention for free. For trips that need more, like custom itineraries, multi-stop adventures, and full research and planning, there’s a fee, and honestly it’s worth it. Here’s how it all works.

Complimentary Bookings

Hotel or cruise reservations, on me.
If you know where you’re going and just need help booking the right hotel or cruise, I’ve got you at no charge. You still get my recommendations, access to trusted partners who sometimes come with perks you won’t find on Expedia, and a real person to call if something goes sideways. It’s genuinely one of the best kept secrets about working with a travel advisor.

Weekend Getaway

Starting at $99 / Trips up to three days

One-Week Itinerary

Starting at $249 / Trips up to seven days
This is the full experience. I’ll research your destination, build a day-by-day itinerary around your travel style, recommend where to stay and where to eat, and handle the booking logistics so nothing falls through the cracks. You’ll have a complete plan in your hands before you leave the house.

Extended or Multi-Stop Journeys

Starting at $499 / Trips up to 14 days or anything complicated
Two countries. Three cities. One family with strong opinions and a kid who needs afternoon downtime. This is exactly what I’m built for. Complex trips with a lot of moving pieces are where having someone who’s done the research and knows the logistics pays off the most.

These two don’t fit neatly into a package, but they’re some of my favorite things to plan.

Surprise Staycations

Starting at $99
You tell me your dates, your budget, and your vibe. I handle everything else and keep it a secret until just before you go. Perfect for anniversaries, birthdays, or anyone who just wants to be surprised for once.

Foodie-Focused Trips

Priced by length
For the traveler who builds the whole trip around the restaurant reservations. I’ll find the spots worth the wait, the markets worth waking up early for, and the meals you’ll still be talking about six months later. Food is how I experience a place too, so this one is close to my heart.

Whether you’re traveling with family, a partner, or a group of friends, here’s where I specialize:

Paris

Food-first itineraries built around incredible meals, beautiful hotels, and enough breathing room to actually enjoy it. We took our kid to a Michelin starred lunch there and he ate every single bite… Paris is absolutely doable and I love planning it.

Seattle

One of the best food cities in the Pacific Northwest with more to do than most people realize. Walkable, delicious, and genuinely great for every kind of traveler. Destination page coming soon. Traveling with kids? Here’s my honest Seattle family guide.

London

Borough Market at 10am, one of the best dinners of my life, and a city that is massively underrated for food-obsessed travelers.

Normandy, France

The overnight ferry from Portsmouth, the D-Day memorials, Bayeux, and some of the best food I have eaten anywhere in France. This one deserves way more than a footnote in your itinerary. Destination page coming soon.

Mexico

Cabo, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, and Cancun. Warm water, incredible food, and trips I can plan at every budget level. Destination page coming soon.

Pacific Northwest

Oregon Coast, Portland, Southern Oregon, and beyond. Outdoor adventures, world class food, and some of the most underrated travel in the country. (I live here, so I know it well.) Destination page coming soon.

California

Coast, cities, wine country, and everything in between. I know it well and love planning it. Destination page coming soon.

Las Vegas

I have been more times than I will admit and I have strong opinions about where to eat, which pools are worth it, and what most visitors completely miss. Destination page coming soon. Planning a Vegas pool day? Here’s everything you need to know.

Cruises

From first-timers to seasoned cruisers, I will match you with the right line, the right ship, and the perks you cannot get booking direct. Cruise specialty page coming soon. New to cruising? Start here.

Not sure which option is right for you? That’s fine. Reach out anyway and we’ll figure it out together.
