Together, we will uncover your vision for the perfect trip. This stage is more about WHY you want to travel, than where. Through a brief and thoughtful conversations we work together to understand your unique dreams and goals. Listening is a big part of our job at this stage of the planning process - getting to know you and your travel dreams…so we can turn them into realities. We will also share more information with you about our process moving forward and discuss our planning fees.

In this stage, we work hand-in-hand to develop an itinerary, perfectly tailored for you. We create an initial proposal outlining the travel options that are right for you. After honing and revising to your specifications and budget, we finalize the design of your trip. We verify the details, so you don’t have to. We know that planning the trip can sometimes be half the fun, so we love collaborating closely with you to create your dream vacation. Or, if you prefer to let us pick up the ball and run with it, we can do that as well!

Some trips require a longer lead time than others, but rest assured just because your trip is booked doesn’t mean we will forget about you! Your reservations may be finalized, but we remain engaged with you until you depart for the airport! We will be sharing interesting information with you to spark your wanderlust and address any concerns you may have regarding your travel plans.

We also connect with our many contacts in your destinations, to discuss possible upgrades, amenities and special perks.
