Travel style

Learning how to travel when times were lean made all the difference when planning travel when times are plentiful. Wonderful experiences can and should be had, no matter where you're at in life. Travel can be deeply spiritual or a totally frivolous jaunt — it's for you and the people along for the ride. I love planning trips and knowing the people taking them have enjoyed what was laid out in front of them but also that they had the freedom to explore and go with the flow, too. I look forward to helping people get what they want and more!

Nicole's reviews

Nicole was our first experience working with a travel advisor, and we’re officially hooked thanks to her! From the very beginning, she totally got what we were looking for—and then took it to the next level with her thoughtful suggestions and special touches. The accommodations and activities she recommended were spot-on, and it was clear she really listened to what we wanted.

What really stood out, though, was how attentive and thorough she was throughout the whole process. At one point during the trip, she texted and emailed us just to make sure we saw an important update about one of our excursions. That kind of care and follow-through meant so much to us, and it made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free. Thank you, Nicole!

Nicole Whelan did a phenomenal job from hotel selection stay preceding our cruise based on our wants and needs, the cruise, excursions and the necessary documents. She was a delight to work with - very pleasant and easy going, understanding and super attentive to details. Extraordinarily well prepared and very knowledgeable about the various travel options. She promptly helped us resolve issues or presented options for considerations. She provided us with an itinerary link that enabled us to get an overview and detail about each phase of our vacation in real time which tremendously helped reduce the email clutter and BRAIN FOG!!! Can't say enough how lucky and fortunate we were to have her as our travel advisor. Always dependable and accessible - we could not have navigated this vacation without her invaluable help and assistance.

I would highly recommend working with Nicole to plan your next trip! I first connected with Nicole after seeing a mutual friend had just been to Italy, which is where we were headed for our first family vacation with our 7 month old baby in 3 weeks - and had nothing booked aside from our plane tickets! I had an initial intake with Nicole where she asked great questions about what we envisioned for our trip, and she quickly got to work to present lodging and excursion options. Building this itinerary through Napoli, Firenze, and Roma during the beginning of peak summer season could not have been easy, but Nicole was so organized and effective. Thanks to her, we had a flexible but structured itinerary that allowed us to make some wonderful first vacation memories. We are so grateful and hope to work with Nicole again soon!

Nicole was helpful in researching the hotel and its amenities! She confirmed certain questions I had with the hotel several times such as luggage storage, which was great peace of mind! Appreciate her expertise and attention to detail!
