For 10 days they explored:
🌟Lisbon

🌟Sintra
🌟Cabo de Roca
🌟Estoril
🌟Óbidos Medieval Castle
🌟Nazare

Imagine two best friends with decades of friendship since college. Each with spouses from a foreign country. It’s only natural that you plan the most amazing vacation to show off each homeland!

Why would they need a travel advisor to book trips to a destination they know so well? Easy! I took care of all the details so they could relax and enjoy time together. Because they were visiting home, they knew exactly where they wanted to stay, which tours they wanted to take, where they needed a car or train ride, etc. I was able to help by booking each of these components, and acting as their advocate whenever difficulties arise. And, sure, there were a couple of hiccups along the way that no one could predict. But they never felt those hiccups because I was taking care of everything in the background.

Here’s the fun part: 1 week traveling from Shannon to Killarney to Cork to Dublin to experience all the beauty that Ireland has to offer. They were spoiled with luxurious accommodations such as The Brehon Resort & Spa, The River Lee Hotel & The College Green Hotel. They visited classic sights such as Ross Castle, St Patricks Cathedral, and, of course, the Guinness Storehouse. All this before heading to Lisbon for 1 night where they saw the city by Tuk Tuk. Next up, they’ll spend a week in São Miguel, Açores visiting the hot springs of Furnas, the natural beauty of Sete Cidades, & old world charm of Vila Franca do Campo.

It was an honor to work with these 2 couples! Thanks for trusting me with this special vacation.

Still one of the biggest mysteries to so many people...Who would bother with a travel agent when I can do everything by myself online??

So true...the world is at our fingertips with everything on the internet. But...
❓Who is there to support you when something goes wrong?
❓Who will answer your call in an emergency?
❓Who will be your advocate when you need help?

It's vacation! None of that will happen! Or will it...
Right now, there are devastating wildfires tearing through Northern Portugal, and my clients are heading there in less than a week. It's my job to inform them, review the cancellation policies of their vacation, and support them in their decision to continue with their trip or reschedule for a later date.
Will the internet advocate for you when you need it?

Three European cities for 3 sets of cousins to discover together. When Mrs M called me back in January with the idea of a Cousins Trip, I knew this could be a special opportunity for them to make some incredible memories. They wanted to explore the highlights of Barcelona, Madrid, & Lisbon complete with flights, transfers, and tours all tied up with a bow. They’ll enjoy sights like La Sagrada Familia, the Royal Palace & Prado Museum, Fatima, Sintra, & Obidos. It’ll be an action packed 10 days for sure! Interested in a similar itinerary for yourself? DM me to get started!
