FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

​

​​What can I expect when working with you?

​Whether you are looking for white-glove service, barefoot sophistication, or something in between, you can expect a highly personalized planning experience designed around your preferences, pace, and priorities.  I intentionally limit the number of clients I work with to ensure each journey receives exceptional care, attention, and detail.  With years of industry experience and strong relationships with top travel partners, I take care of the details that often get overlooked, anticipate needs before they arise, and advocate for you throughout the journey. The result is travel that feels easy, elevated, and genuinely tailored to you.

​

​​​​Do you offer in-person consultations?

All clients begin with a complimentary phone consultation, which allows us to connect, explore your goals, and determine the best path forward.

​

The majority of planning can be conveniently handled via phone or virtual meeting.  For clients who prefer face-to-face, in-person meetings are available by appointment in the Lehigh Valley (PA) and Midtown Manhattan (NYC), after the initial consultation.

​​

Do you book airfare?

Yes. ​I arrange domestic and international air travel as part of my full-service planning. Coordinating flights alongside accommodations and ground logistics allows for a more cohesive and well-managed itinerary.

​

​How is working with you different from booking on my own?

Online booking platforms are transactional.

What I offer is personal. I focus on fit, flow, and experience.

​

When you work with me, you receive:

• Personalized sourcing aligned with your group, goals, and travel style

• Seamless coordination of air, ground, and accommodations

• Pre-arrival planning and curated experiences

• Access to trusted, on-the-ground destination partners

• One dedicated point of contact throughout your journey

• 24/7 in-destination support, should anything shift

 

The result is a smoother, more refined experience.

​​

Do you charge a planning fee?

Yes. Planning fees apply, based on the scope, destination, and level of customization required. Any applicable fees are discussed transparently before services begin.

Do you offer travel insurance?

​​​​

How far in advance should I plan?

For best availability:

• Peak travel periods: 6–12 months in advance

• Off-peak or flexible travel: 3–6 months in advance

​

Short-notice requests may be accommodated based on availability.

​​

Traveler Responsibilities

While I manage planning and bookings, travelers remain responsible for:

• Valid passports and visas

• Meeting entry, exit, and health requirements

• Complying with local laws and regulations

• Reviewing travel documents and itineraries

​​

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Request a consultation and we’ll cover:

• Your travel dates and ideal destination

• Group size, style, and any special requirements

• Private villa preferences

• Investment range and must-have amenities

• Experience goals (relaxation, adventure, wellness, celebration, corporate, etc.)

• Any add-ons you’re interested in—chef services, excursions, wellness sessions, transportation, and more

 

From there, I will craft a personalized itinerary with hand-selected accommodations, private experiences, and seamless logistics tailored exclusively to you.  No scrolling through hundreds of options. We'll refine the options together until we find the perfect fit.
