Travel Style
I specialize in curating unique travel experiences while being mindful of your budget. I believe that travel should feel indulgent, but it doesn’t have to break the bank — especially when it comes to unforgettable experiences. Whether you want a jam-packed itinerary full of adventure or a relaxing beach getaway, I can tailor the perfect trip to suit your vibe. From planning a thrilling Serengeti safari to organizing immersive cultural journeys in Colombia or discovering the adventures in Iceland, I’m passionate about exploring destinations. Let me help you experience the world while checking off the most meaningful things on your bucket list.

Working with Tamekia was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From our initial call and intake form, she truly listened to my travel style, goals, and what this trip represented for me personally. She curated a thoughtful cruise look book with several options that aligned perfectly with my vision, making the decision process both exciting and stress-free.
Tamekia went above and beyond with flight research, including walking me through award and points-based booking options, which was incredibly helpful and allowed me to maximize value without compromising the experience. Her guidance was clear, timely, and empowering — I always felt informed and confident in the decisions being made.
This was a fully custom, multi-week itinerary, and she handled every detail seamlessly — from booking the cruise to coordinating hotels and tours across the three-week journey. When there was a change to the departure port, Tamekia managed the adjustment calmly and efficiently, ensuring everything stayed aligned without added stress on my end.
What I appreciated most was how thoughtfully she managed trip expenses in a way that respected my desired level of investment while still delivering a truly elevated, bucket-list experience. I felt supported, heard, and cared for every step of the way.
This trip was life-changing, and having Tamekia as my travel advisor made all the difference. I would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personalized, intentional, and expertly curated travel experience. A dream come true trip…

Working with Tamekia was seamless. In a short period of time Tamekia was able to find the perfect location for our group of 10. She was also able to provide resources for chef services, boat services and any other excursion we were interested in. She made sure everything we booked stayed within the financial budget without sacrificing any of luxury we were looking for. I would highly recommend working with Tamekia. I was beyond please with all the services she provided, especially the quick turn-around on a last minute vacation. I will for sure use her services again.

I highly recommend Tamekia and will continue to work with her in the future. I went to Paris last minute and requested a package combining airfare and hotel. Tamekia pulled together a package that met my exact needs (location and price). During my stay, I had a minor inconvenience and Tamekia helped me to get it resolved quickly. I’ll be sure to recommend her to friends and colleagues.

I booked a very last-minute flight to Puerto Rico (10 days notice). I contacted Tamekia and let her know what we were not interested in lol, and she was able to provide two very good recommendations that we enjoyed during our stay in Puerto Rico. An added plus was receiving the detailed itinerary that I was able to quickly pull up to remind myself of the times and locations of the excursions.

Food, Adventure & Relaxation in San Pedro, Belize
San Pedro offers something for everyone—whether you’re seeking relaxation, thrilling adventures, or unforgettable cuisine. Traveling around the island on a golf cart allows you to move at your own pace and explore when you see something of interest. My only regret is not staying longer, but I’m still glad we spent a day in Caye Caulker.

Sandals Saint Vincent: Not Just For Couples – Sun, Sand & Luxury
Saint Vincent is off the beaten path when compared to the other islands in the Caribbean. Going to Saint Vincent checked a number of boxes: my first time at a Sandals resort, being the 39th country that I’ve traveled to and lastly, my best friend and I chose this location for our annual trip. Her family is from Saint Vincent, and she hadn’t visited the island in nearly 30 years.
