Sophie Jo Ricciardi

Sophie did an amazing job finding us a great hotel situated between the two neighborhoods we most wanted to explore. With limited time, location was everything. Sophie is super responsive, very diligent and seems to have limitless information about destinations. She's a joy to work with.... can't wait to plan our next trip with her.

Sophie found the most beautiful, spacious, unique rental house for my trip! There were plenty of rooms and bathrooms for my group of 6, an amazing kitchen, and plenty of spaces for us to work and chill when needed. However, my favorite parts of the house had to be the amazing rooftop deck that we enjoyed every morning and the picturesque bookshelf with a full ladder that made me feel like I was Belle from Beauty and the Beast. The place had a housekeeper who came in and cleaned every day, and a security guard on the street that made us feel super comfortable and safe throughout the trip. Sophie also absolutely crushed it on location - the place was in a quiet and cute neighborhood filled with adorable coffee shops and restaurants that was just a short walk from all the action!! In addition to finding us an incredible place, Sophie was invaluable in creating our perfect itinerary. She secured our tickets for the Fda Kahlo museum, found the most fun cooking class, signed us up for a pilates class in English at the most adorable studio, and she got us into dinner at Rosetta and Contramar - two notoriously tough reservations that were high on my list!! Sophie was also extremely knowledgeable about the city. She had the best insight into what neighborhoods to visit, she sent several vibey coffee shops to check out, and provided countless incredible shopping recommendations - even getting us an appointment at the most insane pottery studio! I could never have put together a trip quite as amazing as Sophie did and I look forward to working with her again for future adventures!

I booked a mother-daughter trip and wanted a unique experience to celebrate my oldest daughter’s bachelorette. Sophie’s experience as a traveler and curator of fine travel experiences blew me away.

From selecting an outstanding hotel (Live Aqua), to recommending delicious restaurants and coffee shops, to the finest detail of sending a welcome note, Sophie went above and beyond my expectations.

I’ll be booking with Sophie for years to come, and I have already recommended Sophie to friends who are working with her on their travel experiences.

I worked with Sophie to plan my trip to Mexico City, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. She secured a beautiful hotel in the perfect neighborhood, Roma Norte, got us reservations at some of the city’s most sought-after restaurants, including hard-to-book spots like Rosetta and Contramar, and curated an itinerary that aligned perfectly with what we were looking for.

We toured Luis Barragán’s Casa Pedregal with a private guide, visited Casa Azul, and explored some of the most stunning neighborhoods in the city. Every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. She even shared her favorite shops, which ended up being highlights of the trip. (And required the purchase of an extra suitcase!)

It was a seamless, perfectly paced week thanks to Sophie’s meticulous planning, deep local knowledge, and impeccable taste. Her worldly perspective and eye for design truly came through in every recommendation. I will absolutely be booking with her for future travel and could not recommend her more highly!!!

An unforgettable and special experience curated by Sophie Jo.

I cannot recommend Sophie more! Her attention to detail, over communication and thoughtfulness was apparent every step of our trip. From planning days before up to the execution, Sophie was on it.

I hired Sophie to play a very special girls trip to San Miguel de Allende. I spoke with her a few months before my trip in February where we carefully curated the itinerary including options of where to stay, shopping, activities and restaurants. She factored in budget, dietary restrictions and complemented my thorough research with her own wonderful recommendations, which she sent in a final itinerary with dates and times a few days prior to my trip. I also appreciated that she broke down every expense so I understood what I would be paying for and when. Sophie coordinated all of our travel, including flights and the 1.5 hour car ride from the Leon airport to San Miguel. Also worth noting: I was with 3 other women, so safety was incredibly important to us and she not only made sure the driver arrived early to pick us up, she also shared the model of the car along with the license plate and number in our itinerary. She also texted me when I arrived at the airport and checked in along the way to ensure we made it to the hotel safely. Once we got to the hotel, we were absolutely blown away!! It was even more gorgeous than the pictures and Sophie managed to upgrade our rooms to large suites (another reason she rocks!) In each of our rooms, we were greeted by the sweetest and most thoughtful welcome card personalized by Sophie herself accompanied by a bottle of wine. The hotel was truly magical and would never have found this gem without her. As for the restaurants, she made each reservation special, including a dinner on our last night at a beautiful rooftop overlooking the church. Not to mention each spot was better than the next!!

Sophie went above and beyond to ensure the trip was special, and I cannot wait to work with her again to plan my next trip.
