I have designed over 1,800 custom Europe trips and have traveled extensively throughout 20 European countries. I love them all for different reasons, but Italy has been my passion for 30 years.

On each trip I’ve had wonderful opportunities to travel and learn about the great countries that make up this continent.

Whether you are traveling to 1 country or 5, I can help you plan the trip of a lifetime.

We had an absolutely amazing time over there. We all loved Scotland and the wedding was perfect in every way.

Italy was amazing and all that I had hoped it would be. My favorite spot was definitely Venice and we thoroughly enjoyed our wine tasting day near Greve. The driver set up through the hotel was wonderful, took us to see a few other spots that were close and the wineries were wonderful. We even managed to ship some wine home as well!

The hotels were all great locations and service provided in each was fabulous as well. I will say the private transfers from the train stations and hotels were worth every penny and we were all very glad you had recommended that option. We had the absolute best experience with this in Venice departing to the train station, the employee they sent Gulia was so sweet and very good at her job, stayed with us right until we got on the train.

I truly appreciated your advice and assistance with planning this trip and will definitely keep you in mind for future travels!

Thank you for a flawless adventure. This was our 5th Europe trip with you. All through Switzerland, Germany and Austria the mountains views were spectacular. We could not have asked for better weather. Low 70’s with broken clouds and sunshine every day.

Looking forward to next time! Here’s to trip #34 in 2024 with you. Can you believe we’ve been booking with you since 2008? We can’t imagine doing anything without your touch.
