BEYOND THE ITINERARY: WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER

You’ll receive detailed documentation before departure and ongoing support as you travel—so you can explore with ease, knowing everything is in place.

Travel has the power to inspire, transform, and connect — and I’m passionate about creating journeys that do just that.
With a background in education and years of experience leading both student and adult groups, I now specialize in custom European itineraries designed entirely around you. From luxury escapes to cultural deep-dives and active adventures, I handle every detail so you can simply enjoy the experience.
My love for travel began when my family relocated to England, opening the door to a life of exploration across Europe. What started as planning trips for my own family evolved into leading groups through Italy, Greece, Switzerland, Austria, and beyond — and eventually into crafting highly personalized itineraries for couples, families, and small groups.
Whether you’re hiking the Swiss Alps, cruising the Greek Islands, or sipping wine in the hills of Tuscany, I bring insider knowledge, thoughtful planning, and a deep appreciation for each destination. With credentials from the tourism boards of Switzerland, Ireland, Scotland, Italy, and Spain, I offer trusted expertise and personal attention from start to finish.
Your trip should reflect you — your pace, your passions, your travel style. Let’s design something unforgettable.

Switzerland is one of the most breathtaking — and complex — destinations to plan. From navigating scenic train routes to choosing the right regions, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s where I come in.
My connection to Switzerland began in 2003, when I first visited with my husband and two young children. We stayed in Mürren, a car-free Alpine village reached by trains, cable cars, and a funicular — a journey that sparked my enduring love for this magical country. Since then, I’ve returned many times, both solo and with groups, each visit deepening my knowledge and refining my approach to planning seamless, personalized Swiss itineraries.
Whether you're dreaming of lakeside luxury, Alpine hikes, cultural gems, or scenic train journeys, I’ll help you experience the best of Switzerland — without the stress.

Italy is a dream destination — and every traveler experiences it differently. I design custom itineraries that bring Italy’s history, beauty, and flavors to life in a way that’s tailored entirely to you.

Clients often explore a mix of iconic and lesser-known destinations, like:
Venice: Private canal transfers, Murano glassmaking tours, and spritz stops with local guides.
