Flamenco, tapas, and Andalusian magic—welcome to Seville!

We love helping clients experience it like an insider, with the kind of details that make all the difference.

Catch a private flamenco performance in Triana—it’s where the locals go, and the energy is unforgettable. Walk through orange-scented plazas, pop into tucked-away tapas bars, and save time for a rooftop cocktail with Giralda views (we know a few perfect spots).

This city invites you to slow down and soak it all in. Let’s plan a trip that captures the magic.

If it seems like everyone is talking about Japan—it’s probably because they are.

Where else can you enjoy sushi prepared by a Michelin-starred chef one night, then meditate with monks the next morning? With the right itinerary, you can move effortlessly from the electric energy of Tokyo to the quiet elegance of Kyoto’s temples—all in one trip.

Japan is one of those rare destinations where cutting-edge innovation and deep-rooted cultural traditions live side by side. With expert planning, it’s easy to experience the best of both in a way that feels seamless and immersive.

Curious about crafting your own Japan journey? Let’s start planning.

Ever tasted oysters you just pulled from the sea, paired with Tasmanian wine in the bay itself? At Saffire Freycinet, moments like this are the norm.

Set on Tasmania’s east coast, this intimate lodge (just 20 suites) overlooks the blue waters of Wineglass Bay. The design is sleek and modern, but the atmosphere is as welcoming as it is refined. From guided hikes in Freycinet National Park to indulgent honey-and-lavender spa treatments, Saffire creates a perfect balance between connection to nature and thoughtful luxury.

Safari isn't a one-size-fits-all adventure; there are so many ways to experience the African wilderness beyond the classic jeep ride. Here are a few safari styles our travelers often rave about:

🐘 Classic Safari: Stay in a luxury lodge & spot the Big Five in open-air game drives.
🌄 Walking Safari: Set out on foot with expert guides for a slower, more immersive look at the bush.
🌊 Water Safari: Canoe through Botswana’s Okavango Delta for an up-close look at wildlife.
🌋 Gorilla Trekking: Hike through Rwanda’s misty mountains to meet these gentle giants.

Each type of safari offers something unique, and part of our job is matching you with the experience that will make your wilderness adventure truly unforgettable. Which one is on your list?

Croatia has been climbing to the top of travelers’ wish lists—and not just for the postcard-perfect views. The appeal goes deeper: it’s the kind of place where the unplanned moments—an impromptu boat ride, a quiet alleyway café—often become the highlight of the trip.

A custom itinerary might include walking Dubrovnik’s ancient walls, exploring quiet island coves only accessible by boat, and lingering over wine in hillside vineyards with sea views.

We’ll help you experience Croatia in a way that feels both effortless and unforgettable. Contact us to learn more!

We don’t throw the word “transformative” around lightly, but Kasbah Tamadot earns it.

Tucked in the foothills of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains and owned by Sir Richard Branson, this property feels like a well-kept secret passed between people who truly know how to travel.

The hotel itself is stunning—Berber tents with private plunge pools, mosaic-tiled courtyards, and mountain views from nearly every angle.

We can build this into an itinerary for clients who want a deeper connection to Morocco—somewhere to relax after exploring the souks of Marrakech or trekking through the desert. Let’s start planning!

One&Only Reethi Rah is a bucket-list favorite for good reason.

This private island resort in the Maldives is pure fantasy come to life: overwater villas with steps right into crystal-clear lagoons, personal butlers delivering coconut cocktails to your hammock, and 12 powder-white beaches to explore. It's that magical.

Sometimes you have to see it to believe it, and this is one of those places. Ready to cross the Maldives off your list in style? Let's start planning your overwater escape!

Every year, a few under-the-radar destinations start to catch more attention. Right now, these lesser-known spots are making waves for those in the know:

🧂 Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia – A surreal salt flat that becomes a giant mirror after the rain. Otherworldly doesn’t even begin to describe it.
🌾 Comporta, Spain – Quiet, stylish, and effortlessly cool. With wild beaches, pine forests, and boutique hotels, it’s coastal Europe at its most relaxed.
🌊 Faroe Islands – Rugged cliffs, rolling fog, and a wild sense of remoteness. It feels like the edge of the world—in the best way.
⛰ Julian Alps, Slovenia – Alpine lakes, mountain huts, and scenic trails without the heavy crowds.
🌴 Koh Kood, Thailand – A peaceful island escape with waterfalls, soft sands, and laid-back luxury.

These places still feel like discoveries—and that’s exactly why we love them. Curious about one of these destinations? Let’s start planning!

Have you heard of noctotourism? 🌙 It's all about one-of-a-kind travel experiences that come alive at night. Here's a glimpse at one of the coolest travel trends we’re seeing lately:

✨ Chasing the Northern Lights above the Arctic Circle – nature's most dazzling light show.

✨ Stargazing at Sun City Camp in Jordan’s Wadi Rum – luxury desert camping with skies so clear, the Milky Way feels close enough to touch.

✨ Firefly festivals in Japan – watch thousands of tiny lanterns (yes, fireflies!) light up summer nights

✨ Wine tasting by moonlight in Athens – sip Greek wines under the stars with the Acropolis in the background.

✨ Hot air balloons glowing against the night sky in Cappadocia, Turkey – yes, the magic doesn’t stop at sunrise.

✨ Gliding through New Zealand's Waitomo Caves – drift on an underground river as glowworms create a galaxy on the cave ceiling.

Which of these nocturnal wonders would you try first? Tell us your pick or ask how we can get you there – we're here to plan your after-dark adventure.

Fairytale charm, cutting-edge cuisine, and hygge coziness on every corner – that's Copenhagen for you!

We’re here to help you explore Copenhagen in style! Stroll through Nyhavn with its iconic waterfront houses, stop by a trendy café for a cinnamon roll break, and spend an afternoon biking like a local (Copenhageners love their bicycles!).

Advisor Tip: We always recommend exploring the Torvehallerne food market to taste a smørrebrød or two, and of course, visiting Tivoli Gardens for that old-world magic.

Is Denmark’s capital on your travel list? If not, it should be! Let's plan your Copenhagen getaway with all our insider tips and VIP perks included.

If we could bottle that “relaxed and totally taken care of” feeling, it would look a lot like Coral Reef Club in Barbados. This family-run boutique resort has been welcoming guests for decades—and it shows in all the best ways. Here’s what makes it special:

The Rooms: Colonial-style cottages tucked into tropical greenery give this place the feel of a Caribbean storybook.

Personal Touch: It's the kind of place where you instantly relax, and by the end of your stay everyone knows your name. (You’re not just a room number here!)

Beach & Spa Bliss: Stroll from a white-sand beach to an award-winning spa hidden in the tropical foliage. Total paradise found.

Craving some Caribbean sunshine? Let's plan your Barbados getaway!

Think booking direct is the best deal? Think again. Here’s why working with a luxury travel advisor takes your hotel stay to the next level:

• You pay the same rate (or sometimes even less), but get more – like complimentary breakfast, spa credits, or a welcome gift waiting in your room.

• We have personal relationships with hotels, so we can request the best rooms or views for you and ensure the staff knows you’re a valued guest.

• If anything goes wrong (flight delays, lost reservations), we handle it, so you’re never on your own to fix issues.

Bottom line: Booking with us turns an ordinary hotel stay into a special experience and costs you nothing extra.

When couples think “romantic getaway,” beach destinations usually come to mind—but some of the most unforgettable escapes happen far from the shoreline. If you're dreaming of something a little different, here are a few spots that set the mood in their own magical way:

🏞 Scottish Highlands – Storybook castles, moody lochs, and countryside retreats perfect for sharing a fireside whisky and slowing down together.
🌾 Provence, France – Strolls through lavender fields, market mornings, and dinners under the stars in a rustic château.
🍷 Napa Valley – Vineyard picnics, wine tastings, and firelit evenings at charming boutique inns.
🎨 San Miguel de Allende, Mexico – Cobblestone streets, art, and rooftop dinners overlooking glowing pink churches.
⛩ Petra, Jordan – Ancient history and unforgettable sunsets—pair it with a night at a luxury camp nearby.
🌄 Sedona, Arizona – Red rock hikes, spa days, and desert sunsets that feel like pure magic.

Romance looks a little different in each of these places—and that’s what makes them so special. Let’s plan a love-filled escape that’s anything but ordinary.

We get asked all the time if there’s a secret to scoring a flight upgrade. The truth? Having a travel advisor in your corner makes all the difference.

Not all business-class seats are created equal. Before you book, let us help you choose the airline that offers the best experience for your route—because flying should feel like part of the vacation. Here are a few ways we elevate your time in the air:

✔️ Lounge Access That’s Actually Worth It – Some lounges are next-level, others not so much. We’ll make sure you get access to the best.
✔️ Meet & Greet Services – Breeze through customs and security with fast-track help, perfect for tricky connections or arriving fresh in Europe.
✔️ Semi-Private & Private Flights – Ditch the crowds and enjoy personal service from boarding to landing—no checked baggage fees, no chaos.

Flying can be a whole lot more enjoyable—with the right advisor in your corner. Let’s talk strategy for your next trip!

Clients have been asking about the best way to see the Canadian Rockies, and we always light up when we talk about the Banff to Lake Louise route.

It’s a breathtaking stretch packed with outdoor adventure and natural beauty—far beyond just the scenic drive. Soak in natural hot springs, paddle across glacier-fed lakes, hike through alpine meadows, or try stand-up paddleboarding with the mountains as your backdrop. Into biking? There are plenty of scenic trails for that too.

With charming lodges, luxury stays, and jaw-dropping views around every turn, it’s the kind of trip that makes you want to stay just a little longer.

Some safari experiences leave a lasting impression—and Singita Sabi Sand in South Africa is one of them.

Evenings might include watching elephants stroll past your private plunge pool as the sky turns gold, or spotting a leopard on the move just before dusk. This private reserve is known for its remarkable wildlife encounters, led by expert guides who know the land inside and out.

Each suite features a panoramic deck and plunge pool, ideal for taking in the view with a glass of South African wine in hand.

It’s the kind of place that feels too incredible to be real—until you’re there. Curious to learn more? Let’s chat.

About Our Owners....

We are Felix and Anneke Marchese, co-owners of AM/FM Leisure & Adventure Travel. As the parents of two special needs adopted kids, we have unique knowledge and personal experience to aid in your travel plans, no matter the obstacle. Devoted foodies and craft brew lovers, we can suggest great places to fill your belly, too. We've been a team for over 18 years, having first met each other in 1998. We've called the greater Phoenix valley area home for over 10 years, and in 2017 made the leap to relocate to Central Oregon after beginning our family's journey in Northern California. After struggling with infertility for years, we were blessed to adopt our two (not so tiny anymore) miracles! After several career path, location, and family switchbacks, we found our way down the road less traveled, and realized our dream come true- the opportunity to turn our family's love of travel and exploration into a thriving business. We've added to our team over the years, but we've stayed committed to keeping things family-run and operated. It's our hope that our love and passion for life, travel and knowledge is contagious, and that you find yourself as incurable as ourselves!
