Emily's reviews
My 3 week trip to Japan would not have been possible without Emily’s planning and expertise. From touring shrines and temples, day trips to Nara and Hakone, eating like a local from food markets to high end sushi in Ginza, Emily provided the perfect itinerary to cover it all. I would not have been able to navigate this amazing country with such rich history and incredible cuisine without Emily’s guidance. This was the trip of a lifetime and was made possible by Emily’s devotion to planning the perfect vacation.

Emily planned a fabulous trip for myself and a close friend of mine from 2/28/23-3/5/23. We decided to spend 5 days in Bariloche before heading to Buenos Aires. The trip was absolutely incredible! The experience was tailored to our needs, and our itinerary was perfect! We spent time exploring the city of Bariloche, we went kayaking on one of the beautiful lakes, had a private guide take us on the famous Circuito Chico, hiked along the most beautiful hiking trail in the area, and tasted the finest beer from craft breweries. We ate at some amazing restaurants - all of the recommendations and reservations were made by Emily. She has incredible taste in food and gives the best restaurant recommendations. I would be remiss to not mention one of the best highlights of the trip - ice cream and Franui (chocolate-covered frozen raspberries) from Rapa Nui. This place was so good we went back there almost once a day! When I travel, I love to relax and have everything taken care of for me. I want to surrender control and be taken on a journey. That is exactly the service that Emily provides! She finds all of the gems, and plans everything seamlessly so that you can truly relax and not worry about planning anything. Everything we needed for our trip was taken care of, down to the recommendations on local drivers and local places to safely exchange currency. I love and appreciate Emily's professionalism and how much care and passion she shows for her clients. I can't wait to book another trip and see where the universe (and Emily) send me on my next journey!

Emily is so freakin awesome. She not only was super helpful in getting everything booked so easily, but she also helped us find some great spots to dine, shop, and visit during our trip. She truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable anniversary trip, and I don't think we could have had such a wonderful trip without her. Anyone would be super lucky to work with her on their travel plans.

Emily is an exceptional travel advisor. She meticulously tailors her services to fit our needs and personal preferences. Always available, even at the oddest hours, Emily promptly answered all our questions. Her superb organizational skills are apparent in the timely emails she sends, reminding us to check in, review bills, etc. The local recommendations she provided were far superior to those from the hotel, making our trip even more enjoyable and stress-free. I will definitely use Emily’s services again in the future.
