You know the saying, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know?” Well, they are half right. When planning luxury travel, it takes a lot of know-how as well as connections to curate personalized, unique itineraries.
I’ve been very fortunate to be able to travel to different places all over the world. With this knowledge and connections to travel partners around the world, I can bring experience to help you navigate through the planning process.
Listening and understanding how you prefer to travel is important. Some people like to take their time to enjoy where they are. For them, staying in a centrally located resort or hotel allows for exploration in the surrounding region. Other travelers want to see as much as possible. For those clients, talking through their logistical options and deciding what works best for them is important. Understanding how travel flows is key.
Next, I work with my travel partners to create your individualized itinerary. Who are my travel partners? They are tour operators who specialize in their own country or region. They are hoteliers who will work with me to add amenities, VIP status and upgrades. With cruises, my travel partners work with me to help maximize your investment.
With my wonderful travel partners in my back pocket, I’m ready to help you create the vacation of your dreams.
Reviews
All of Mari's arrangements were terrific. She recommended a spectacular high end hotel in Amsterdam and a charming small quaint hotel in Normandy. In Amsterdam she found guides that were knowledgeable and charming. In Normandy, our guide spent the week with us, handling all the driving and displaying a wealth of knowledge about art, culture and one of my primary goals in going to Normandy - the WW 2 sites. Mari is warm, caring, knowledgeable and has an incredible attention to detail. we will be doing busin
