STOP doing this immediately….

Stop trying to do ALL of Italy in ONE trip! 🇮🇹

It just won’t work.

Let’s be real: trying to fit Venice, Florence, Rome, the Amalfi Coast...AND Sicily into one trip is a recipe for burnout.

Trust me—you’re not “doing Italy,” you’re rushing it.

And Italy isn’t a country to rush; it’s a country to savor.

Here’s the deal:
🌟 You’ll Burn Out. Logistics overload. Trains, planes, cars… no grazie.
🌟 You’ll Miss the Magic. Italy’s charm is in its details: that tucked-away trattoria, the cobblestone street you stumble upon, the moments you’ll remember forever.
🌟 Less is More. Pick 1–2 regions and really immerse yourself. Sip wine in Tuscany. Explore the Amalfi Coast. Wander Venice’s canals.
🌟 You Deserve Better. Travel isn’t about ticking off landmarks—it’s about the memories you create.

Let’s ditch the checklist and plan a trip that’s intentional, meaningful, and totally you.

🚨 Important Update for U.S. Travelers to the UK! 🇬🇧✈️

Starting January 8, 2025, U.S. citizens traveling to the United Kingdom for short visits, tourism, or business, including those just passing through UK airports, will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA).

👉 What is the ETA?
Think of it as a quick pre-travel check. It’s not a visa but a new requirement to ensure smooth entry into the U.K.

🌟 Who Needs It?
If you’re visiting for tourism, business, family, or even a short-term study, you’ll need an ETA. (Exceptions apply for UK visa holders or British/Irish citizens.)

🌟 How Do You Apply?
As of November, 2024, you can apply online or via the UK ETA app. It’s super straightforward:

Enter your passport details.

Upload a photo.

Pay a £10 fee (~$12.50).

Decisions usually take just three working days!

🌟 How Long Is It Valid?
Your ETA is valid for two years or until your passport expires, allowing multiple visits of up to six months.

🌟 Why This Matters:
Without an ETA, you won’t be allowed into the UK. Don’t leave this to the last minute—let’s make sure your trip goes off without a hitch!

This is a quick reminder that changes like these are why working with a travel advisor can be a lifesaver. We stay on top of all the logistics so you don’t have to.

Planning your dream trip to London, Edinburgh, or the stunning English countryside? Let’s make it seamless and unforgettable.

What’s the REAL cost of planning your own trip?

So, here’s what can happen without a travel advisor:

❌ Missed connections because flights weren’t properly timed.
❌ Overbooked hotels that leave you stranded or settling for less.
❌ “Hidden fees” that make your budget spiral out of control.
❌ Experiences that don’t live up to the glowing reviews.

And the worst part?

You’ve invested 30+ hours of your precious time into planning… only to have it fall apart.

But here’s the good news: You don’t have to take that risk.

A travel advisor:

✔️ Ensures every detail is seamless.
✔️ Solves problems before they happen.
✔️ Gets you exclusive upgrades, perks, and experiences.
✔️ Turns your dream trip into a flawless reality.Don’t gamble with your hard-earned vacation.

Let me take the stress (and risks) out of the process.

Because your time, money, and memories are worth more. Right?!

A New Yorker in Paris… ...and London, and Rome, and Barcelona.

Hello! Bonjour! Ciao! Hola!

My name is Nicole Bono, I am a seasoned luxury event planner, founder of Bono Events International, and currently based in Paris, France.

Originally from New York City, and raised in a multilingual home, travel is in my DNA.

After graduating from Berkee College of Music, I started my professional career in the fast-paced Manhattan music industry, working with a rolodex of celebrity clientele. Soon after, I moved to Europe, fell into the world of international event planning, and haven’t looked back.
