We plan honeymoons, milestone trips, and 5-star escapes. Personalized service, insider perks, and your travel made easy!
Travel Style
Our founder, Alexandra has lived on four continents and never stops moving! She has worked in the travel industry for 20 years and loves to not only travel to, but really get under the skin of places—especially finding local spots and amazing food! She loves learning about different cultures, and while you can often find her following the sun and sipping yet another Aperol on a quiet European street, she can just as easily be found exploring her own back yard (currently Colombia) or the UK.

We loved our trip to Japan - I wasn't really sure what to expect, but it was better than I had imagined.
We worked with Alexandra over the past year to bring this trip to life. The approach was collaborative with a lot of thought behind how everything was put together, from the overall flow of the trip to the hotels we stayed at. Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi was a real highlight for us as was Four Seasons Kyoto, coming in a close second.
We really appreciated being able to experience such a different culture while still feeling comfortable throughout. It felt like a nice balance of learning, exploring and enjoying.
The food was a big part of the trip for us. Alexandra went above and beyond to get us a highly coveted spot at a unique omakase pizza restaurant. It was definitely a trip highlight. She also made sure we had dinners and lunches booked every day at the perfect restaurants, at the exact locations that made sense for the day’s plan. It is not easy to make or change any reservations in Japan so all of these details ended up being very much appreciated.
I was anxious about navigating transportation when all of the street signs and signs in the train station are in Japanse but Alexandra booked us with an amazing team on the ground who set it all up seamlessly and comfortably.
During our time in Kyoto, we experienced an afternoon with the Geisha, something that really allowed us to learn about and see a different side of Japanese culture. The sumo competition in Osaka was a lot of fun to watch!
We also loved the shopping - Daikanyama was an absolute highlight, along with the vintage shopping and high end boutiques for Japanese denim. The quintessential Japanese creativity and perfectionism on display at shops like the 12 story Itoya in Ginza devoted only to paper and stationery was a must see.
We came home saying "it was awesome" Thank you for everything!

The organization was flawless—we never had to wait for a single thing. Every car and guide was perfectly on time, and we felt like royalty from start to finish!
All the experiences were wonderful, and we felt safe throughout. Everywhere we went, people genuinely cared about our happiness and enjoyment, which made the service feel so special.
The hotels were outstanding. In Vietnam, we loved the Park Hyatt Saigon, but the highlight overall was Phulay Bay, a Ritz Carlton Reserve—where we really felt like King and Queen. The food, service, and beach were all incredible.
Our dietary restrictions were always carefully considered—every hotel, restaurant, and guide knew exactly what we needed in advance, so we never had to worry. A standout favorite dish was the mango sticky rice in Thailand!
The itinerary flowed beautifully. In hindsight, Vietnam could have been a little shorter or allowed for a free day to enjoy the Park Hyatt Saigon—the drive to the Cu Chi tunnels felt quite long. All the restaurant recommendations were excellent, though a couple in Chiang Mai didn’t quite hit the mark.
We loved Bangkok—a city we can easily see ourselves returning to with so much still to explore. The elephant experience at PATARA was a true bucket-list moment, living up to every expectation: interactive, enjoyable, and educational.
Ending in Singapore was a nice contrast—polished and impressive—though for us, it didn’t have the same raw edge as the rest of Southeast Asia. We’re glad to have seen it but don’t feel the need to return.
Overall, our honeymoon was amazing! We loved working with you, and we’ll be back for future adventures. We’d confidently recommend Alexandra to our friends and family.

Alex is the best at what she does! Understood our needs, went way out of her way to make it a fantastic vacation for our family. We were celebrating a babymoon, with our toddler joining us. We went with Alex's recommendation of the FSR Palm Beach and we couldn't have enjoyed it more. All our requests that Alex handled were met by the hotel making it a fantastic trip without any hassle. Alex stays in constant communication to make sure that pre, during and post, your needs are met and you get value at every step of the way. Alex will be the first call we make, every time we travel now!

We had an amazing experience working with Alexandra! From start to finish, she was on top of every detail, making our trip completely stress-free. All our transportation was perfectly timed, and she paired us with excellent tour guides and a fantastic boat captain. We never had to worry about a thing, and she was always readily available whenever we needed assistance. Thanks to her careful planning and support, we were able to fully enjoy our vacation. Highly recommend her services!
