My Story

Former international aid worker with a curiosity for new cultures and unique experiences in all corners of the globe. I am a coffee and food enthusiast and enjoy active vacations with hiking, kayaking, or bicycling on the trip agenda.

Travel Style

I am a seasoned traveler to new countries and a natural-born explorer. When I visit a place I have never been to, I start by thinking about the logistics, pace, and overall vibe of my ideal trip itinerary and then fill in the details. My travel companions rely on me for cute coffeeshop and authentic local food recommendations, along with picking the right lodging location. I am also keenly observant of the cultural differences I encounter while globetrotting and infuse that knowledge into more authentic experiences for my travel clients.

Tony did an amazing job planning our 9-day trip through Rome, Tuscany, and Milan. From the itinerary he built, to the hotels he chose, to the other bookings he made (flights, rental car, dinner reservations, tours, etc.) - we had an expertly planned, stress-free vacation that felt very "us" despite our doing almost no planning at all. We got to do and see a lot while still resting and recharging. I couldn't recommend Tony more, and will definitely be using him going forward for our travel planning needs!

Where would I be without Tony?! His help was instrumental in finding the perfect location for a weeklong vacation in Tulum. He sourced the property and researched the activities and transport, and then scheduled them. He made sure that at every step of the way, I was taken care of and all the details were buttoned up. I will never work with another travel agent. Tony is the best in the business, and he cares about his client’s experience. Highly recommended!

Tony was a joy to work with. He made himself available for any questions and ensured that I had all the planning support necessary to make my trip a successful one. He even followed up to ensure that my trip was satisfactory after the fact. Tony provides impeccable service, and I can't wait to engage him again for my next international trip!

Working with Tony was wonderful. He was always quick to respond and was extremely knowledgeable about travelling in Africa. I rarely depend on others to book my travels (67 countries and counting), but the lodge I had been looking at was not available for my dates and I needed someone who could give me alternatives. Tony jumped in and found several lodges in Zimbabwe and Zambia at varying prices and levels of activity. Masuwe Lodge turned out to be perfect, and it's unlikely that I would have found it without Tony's help. He was also great with non-hotel related tips, such as bringing crisp, unfolded currency, which is something that's not generally a planning consideration for me! Thanks for all your help, Tony!

Tony went above and beyond to help plan a major trip with multiple stops. He's extremely communicative and made sure to give us plenty of options since we didn't know exactly what we wanted. He was also super flexible when we decided to completely change the destination halfway through planning. I look forward to working with him again soon!
