Planning Your Trip
I’d be happy to help you plan your next trip! I can book hotels, cruises, or all-inclusive resorts at no extra charge, or create a fully custom itinerary tailored to your preferences, which involves planning fees (see fee schedule below). I work by appointment only so your trip gets my full attention, and travel pricing changes constantly, so it’s best to reach out when you’re ready to book. If you’re curious about typical costs, you’re welcome to visit my Upcoming Trips page to see sample itineraries and pricing.
Standard Travel Arrangements
If you don’t need a full custom itinerary, I can assist with booking hotels, cruises, or all-inclusive resorts at no extra cost. I cannot book trips within 30 days of travel, and I focus on hotel bookings with a minimum cost of $250 to ensure my time is used effectively. This service lets you take advantage of my expertise and connections while keeping the planning process stress-free and straightforward.
Additional Services:
Fees apply depending on the service and the time involved.
In addition to full trip planning and standard bookings, I also offer specialized services to help with specific needs:
Pick My Brain Sessions –
Schedule time with me to ask questions, get recommendations, or brainstorm ideas for your next trip.
Flight Research –
I can research flights, compare options, and provide recommendations tailored to your schedule and budget.
AirBnB Research –
I’ll help you find and evaluate Airbnb options that meet your preferences, from location to amenities.
These services are perfect if you need guidance or research without a full custom itinerary.
I work by appointment only to give your trip the attention it deserves.
Book Your Appointment – Let’s chat about your travel dreams and gather all the important details. A $200 deposit is required before I begin any work.
Custom Planning – I’ll craft a personalized plan based on your preferences and must-haves.
Stay in the Loop – Timely email responses keep your trip on track and stress-free.
Finalize & Enjoy – Once approved, I handle all bookings so your journey is seamless.
By focusing on one client at a time, I make sure every trip is thoughtfully planned and perfectly executed.
I work differently than a lot of travel advisors, it is by appointment only, so your trip gets my full attention. During this call, I’ll learn about your travel dreams, must-haves, and expectations. A $100 deposit is required before I begin any planning.
To begin planning your trip, I require a $200 deposit, which acts as a retainer for my time and expertise. This deposit is refundable once your travel has begun or can be applied toward any additional research or planning fees incurred.
This ensures I can dedicate focused attention to your itinerary and provide personalized planning without interruptions. Your deposit secures your spot and allows me to start crafting a trip tailored specifically to you.
As a travel advisor, I invest a significant amount of time, effort, and expertise into planning your trip. Just like any professional service, it’s important that my time is compensated, and this allows me to continue offering quality, customized travel planning.
After you've had a chance to review your proposed itinerary, let's discuss any adjustments you'd like to make before we finalize your reservations.
I kindly ask you to share your feedback and any necessary adjustments within one week of receiving the proposal.
Please note, once the final proposal is accepted, any subsequent changes will incur a $50 fee. Plus any other charges from the suppliers.
Please be sure to check your email regularly and read my emails thoroughly.
My emails are packed with important trip info. They often answer questions before they even come up. Reading them and replying within 2-3 business days keeps your planning smooth — and me happy! If I don’t hear back, I may need to shift my focus to other clients until I receive your response.
