I decided to become a luxury travel advisor about 20 years ago when I couldn’t find anyone who could plan the journeys I wanted. Most travel agents were not familiar with the kinds of in-depth cultural and eco-tourism adventures that I—and now my clients--enjoy.
As a travel agent, I have continued to seek out special cultural adventures around the world, both for myself and my clients. I pride myself matching my clients with luxurious experiences that are perfectly aligned with their interests. I especially enjoy organizing trips that help people to learn about the history and cultures of new places. Happily, this is exactly what I now do through my work as president of Luxury In Travel, an affiliate of Tzell Travel Group.
Having traveled extensively throughout Southeast Asia and the world, I use my knowledge of the culture, history and present-day pleasures of each destination in pulling together journeys for my clients, one personalized travel adventure at a time.
To me, luxury means much more than simply staying in top hotels. Tapping into my years of experience as a traveler and a travel planner, I work to provide the most luxurious and in-depth experiences possible. I learn your preferences and anticipate your needs so that you can enjoy your trip.
If there’s something you want to see or do, I’d love to arrange it, no matter how off-the-beaten-track or exotic. For example, I managed to arrange for some of my clients to fly a private plane and land in a military airport near the Nepalese border and visit Kashgar, an oasis city with a history of over 2,000 years.
Whether you’re looking for a culinary tour of China or a visit to a remote agricultural or fishing village, my greatest joy is making your travel dreams come true.
