Heather was amazing in her coordination of our group making sure we were each well prepared in advance of our trip. Heather easily dealt with flight cancellations and moved appointments and reservations during the trip as needed to accommodate our group. The variety of activities from high end private shopping to vintage hideaways; exclusive tours in both cities; and some surprises made for an incredible time! I highly recommend Heather.

May '24 Northern Italy
We worked with Heather and her Italian specialist Giulia to construct our trip to Venice/Garda/Como/Milan at relatively short notice. They worked very hard to plan a fun & interesting trip and remained available throughout our travels to help us with mid-course corrections, questions, etc. as the inevitable in situ opportunities, challenges and confirmations emerged. We certainly had challenges, yet, with their help, had a great trip full of unique & unexpected experiences and pleasures - job well done.
John, May 2024
Perfectly Planned Italian Vacation
Excellent! I really felt listened to, I was given a lot of options, and the details were very well explained!! She was easy to communicate with via, phone, text, and email. She communicated any changes as soon as they happened to make sure we were kept up to date on all of our travels. Planning our trip went from stressful to fun and exciting!

Seniors in Spain
We had not traveled overseas since before COVID and needed to re-discover our travel abilities (and limits) given being a few years older and needing a wheelchair. Heather listed—and heard—all of our concerns, and created a wonderful, personalized adventure to Madrid, Sevilla, and Lisbon. When unanticipated issues arose (not of her making) she responded to us immediately, providing guidance and solutions. Because of her expertise, we learned we are definitely not too old to continue discovering this amazing world and cannot wait to start planning another trip with her.

Cabo
Heather handled everything including a last minute change we made which entailed a new hotel, transfers mid-vacation and back to the airport at the end - she made sure everything was handled and put us at ease about all the changes we made!

Heather is great. She listened to what we were trying to accomplish on our trip to Italy and England and made it happen.
