My Travel Style
For me, travel is about exploring the unknown, meeting new people, and tasting delicious food through both luxury and down-to-earth experiences. It is finding the balance between planning extensive itineraries, yet also being open to spontaneous adventures along the way.

Rachel was absolutely wonderful to work with! She helped me plan my trip to Paris and made everything so easy and enjoyable. Her recommendations were spot-on, and her attention to detail made the experience stress-free. I couldn’t have done it without her!

Rachel was an amazing advisor to work with. She not only answered all of our questions but she listened to our wants and needs for this vacation and executed them beautifully. It was so nice to just sit back and relax knowing everything was taken care of. We also appreciated the little notes and extra treats left by Rachel and the hotel staff. It made the experience very custom and thoughtful. Would absolutely love to work with Rachel again in the future.

We decided to hire Rachel to help plan our two week trip to France. From start to finish, she exceeded our expectations.
Rachel was incredibly knowledgeable, providing excellent suggestions for areas to stay in each region of our trip. Once we narrowed down our preferences, she presented us with fantastic hotel options to choose from for each location. She also researched and sourced experiences and transfers throughout our journey.
The two experiences we booked through Rachel were absolute highlights of our trip. The wine tour in Burgundy was fantastic, and the private Seine cruise was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that exceeded our expectations.
Rachel's responsiveness was outstanding! She answered questions quickly throughout the planning process and even responded on weekends, which we greatly appreciated though didn't expect. She provided us with a detailed, organized itinerary complete with times, locations, contact numbers, and even her own number in case we needed anything during our travels.
I will definitely be using Rachel for future trips and would highly recommend her to anyone needing travel planning assistance.

Rachel was perfect! The hotel was great, the room was great and the note left by Rachel was super thoughtful and sweet. She's outdone herself again and I can't wait to book my next trip with her.

My travel ideas (3)
Pendry Natirar: Luxury Stay Just 1 Hour from NYC
Less than an hour from NYC, you can arrive at Pendry Natirar, which feels like a world away. The beautiful countryside estate feels both homey and luxurious, and provides the perfect weekend, or even one-night escape for those pressed for time. Upon arrival at the property's gates, I instantly felt transported to the English countryside.

What It's Like to Stay at the Best Hotel in the World: Passalacqua
There are many luxury hotels in Lake Como, and of course, many luxury hotels in Italy and even more broadly, the world. Therefore, it goes without saying, that there's a tremendous amount of competition for the "World's 50 Best Hotels." However, it's clear why Passalacqua was just rated the #1 hotel in the world. I had the pleasure of staying at this property in August along with my husband and two clients, and let's just say, the experience exceeded all expectations. We're already dreaming of our next stay!

Family-Friendly Things to Do in Scottsdale, AZ
Scottsdale has been known for quite a few years now as the destination for bachelor and bachelorette parties (I actually had my own there several years ago!), but it is lesser known as a destination for families. With various delicious restaurants, large beautiful villas and family-friendly hotels to choose from, and lots of family-friendly activities — this destination is definitely not just for partying.
