Earlier is always better—especially for peak seasons, Europe, ski trips, and cruises. That said, I’ve booked cruises 18 months in advance and also planned Europe and Japan ski trips with just one week’s notice. Thanks to my reputation and partnerships, last‑minute travel is often possible—but more notice allows for the widest range of options.

Hotel‑ and villa‑only bookings focus on securing the right place to stay with preferred perks and upgrades, often at no extra cost. Full‑service planning includes custom itinerary design, logistics, experiences, and hands‑on support before and during your trip.

Full‑service itineraries are priced at $500 per week of travel. This includes unlimited communication leading up to your trip and 24/7 support while you’re on the ground. Hotel‑ and villa‑only bookings do not require a planning fee.

For full‑service clients, it means you can reach out as questions arise—whether you’re refining details before departure or need assistance while traveling. You’ll never feel like you’re navigating your trip alone.

Yes. For full‑service itineraries, I coordinate air travel through Embark Beyond’s 24‑hour air desk, handling flights from Economy Comfort and above, including routing, seat selection, and schedule support. A $75 per ticket air‑booking fee applies.

Absolutely. Many clients begin with a hotel booking and decide to expand their planning once their trip takes shape. We can always adjust the level of support based on your needs.

After I review your inquiry, we’ll schedule a time to connect by phone to talk through your trip in more detail—your vision, timeline, and travel style. From there, I’ll outline next steps, confirm the level of support that makes the most sense, and we’ll begin the planning process together.
