Here’s an uncomfortable truth about travel planning.

Everyone totally underestimates exactly how long it’ll take to plan a well-coordinated trip, and they forget what their time is actually worth.

Let’s run some math. The average trip takes about 20 hours to plan.

That includes researching, narrowing down choices, booking all of the details, and then filing away everything so you can find it for the actual trip.

Now let’s say your time is billed at $60/hour - that’s $1,200.

That’s a decent chunk of change.

Now if the idea of delegating all that research, planning and booking sounds more appealing than spending $1,200 of your time, you’ve come to the right place!

My travel planning services can make it a breeze.

You save time, and you get an expertly curated trip that is planned with just as much care as you’d put into it yourself.

I’m going to be the one to say it.

Planning your trips yourself is wasting your time 😬

Spending hours and hours scrolling through endless websites, comparing prices, reading reviews, and then booking it all?

That’s a lot of work!

If you’re the type who enjoys the research and the brainstorming, I highly recommend doing some of the upfront work — because, quite honestly, it’s fun to dream about getting away!

But then hand over your notes to a travel advisor to do the legwork.

It’s waaaay less of your time spent, and you get the benefit of a second pair of eyes on everything.

Why do I do what I do?

My ultimate goal is to make travel easier for people, and whether it’s through a quick tip, I share that’s helpful, sharing inspiration that leads people to discover a new destination or re-discover one they’ve already been to.

And of course, by offering personalized travel itineraries and support with travel.

Every trip I go on, I ALWAYS try to make the most out of it!

And part of that means coordinating and planning to make the most of my time while on the actual trip.

I recently visited Disney's Jollywood Nights, and it was such a blast.

And the experience just wouldn’t have been possible without some very good planning and access to the great partners I have on the ground in the destination.

And I try to make sure every trip I plan is curated in a way that helps my clients explore destinations in the ways that will be most enjoyable and impactful to them.

But I also make sure they are well taken care of!

Do you *really* want to plan your own honeymoon?

Don’t get me wrong, I love the rush of opening a browser tab to look up epic spots for a honeymoon.

But have you ever been on a DIY trip and thought, “I wish I knew that before” or “I probably could have skipped that”?

My clients have definitely been there before. That is until we started working together on their travel planning.

I help them prioritize what to see and what to skip based on their travel preferences, my experiences in the destination, and my wider network of international travel experts and connections.

Just because the internet says it’s great doesn’t mean it’ll always fit your travel style.

I’m here to be the second pair of eyes on your itinerary and travel experiences so you’re never suffering from FOMO or disappointment. 💪

I couldn’t agree more with the saying, “gift experiences, not things”

If being a travel advisor has taught me anything, it’s that the memories made and the experiences had together are priceless.

I see it every single time clients come home raving about their vacations.

If you’re thinking of gifting travel instead of things this year, here are 3 trip ideas to put under the tree for your family

Walt Disney World - perfect for the family with small kids. See the magic through their eyes when the movies come to life right in front of them!

Disney Cruise - perfect for the family with kids both young and teens who want an even mix of relaxation and Disney magic.

All Inclusive Resort - perfect for the family who wants ultimate relaxation while on vacation. There are plenty of activities to keep the kids busy while allowing parents that coveted down time.

What trip would you put under the tree for your loved ones? Your secret’s safe with me!

Winter is creeping up fast! ❄️

Where should you go and where should you stay?

Two important questions, but before you answer them, ask yourself this:

Do you want to be doing all of the research, booking, and planning?

Or would you much rather delegate it to someone else during this busy time of year?

If you’re cringing at the thought of sitting on Google trying to find reviews for the resorts you’re considering or decide on what tours are worth your time, it’s time to call in reinforcements.

All it takes is heading to the link in my bio.

I will do all of the research, planning, and itinerary creation for your perfect winter escape.

Mornings are a little crisp here in Augusta, but all the photos I’ve been staring at of the Caribbean sea are reminding me of warmer places.

On deck right now is an itinerary for a client's Walt Disney World Vacation. It was her dining day this morning and I was able to secure all of her coveted dining reservations while she enjoyed her morning in bed!

It's their first WDW Vacation so I'm loading thier itinerary with all my best tips and tricks!

2024 is going to be yet another busy travel year, and my clients got a headstart on their planning so they could have the top pick of the resorts and experiences they want.

What is the #1 reason NOT to book your next family vacation online, you may ask...

What about things like this:

🙃 You won’t have anyone to call when things go sideways
🙃 You’re booking a pre-packaged vacation that isn’t really tailored for you
🙃 Online reviews don’t ever paint an accurate picture of what a trip or hotel is actually like

I have seen so many people try to DIY their vacation and you just don't have to!

When you work with me:

🤩 You’ll always have me on standby during your trip
🤩 You’re getting a trip that’s made for you with your interests in mind not a cookie-cutter vacation
🤩 You get vetted and verified information so you’re not booking and crossing your fingers your trip will be good

If you DO decide to book online make sure you look at the fine print, watch out for blackout dates, and make sure you know everything about the cancellation policies.

Do you have any questions about planning your next family vacation? Send me a message and I’d be happy to answer!
