Unforgettable Adventures for Every Generation |
|
It's never too early to start planning your family's next adventure. I love brainstorming memory-making vacations that go beyond the typical kids' club.
Whether stargazing at a dark sky preserve or hiking national parks and hut-to-hut treks in the Appalachians or Alps, there's something for everyone—with five-star stays to top it off. I can handle all the details for multi-gen getaways, from tips on renting cribs to walking devices. Here's a bit of inspiration to get you started: |
|
Hotel Castello di Reschio, Umbria, Italy |
|
Preschoolers—Extended family getaways work for everyone. Grandparents get quality time with their kids and grandkids, and there are enough adults around that couples can take off and explore on their own.
Consider booking a villa in a new destination, such as the five-star Hotel Castello di Reschio in Umbria. A private pool and expansive grounds make it easy to entertain the kids—make sure to book a chef-run family cooking class together, too. Off-duty parents can escape into the rolling countryside to explore the wineries and villages. |

Micato Safaris | Four Seasons Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica | Ski Trip |
|
Middle Schoolers – Adventures are more accessible at this age; try a chalet for a week of skiing, where day-after-day instruction gives everyone a real chance to work on technique and improve.
Skill upgrades work in warmer climates, too – Costa Rica is an excellent spot for learning to surf, particularly from December to April. Long point breaks of warm tropical water – what's not to love?
Middle-school ages are also a great time for that first safari – book now for next summer's migration season in Kenya's Maasai Mara to see wildebeest and Zebra crossing the Mara River (and all the big cats that follow). |

|
High schoolers and older – Older kids mean bigger adventures – safaris are great at this age, too, especially rugged gorilla trekking in Rwanda. The country offers incredible cultural experiences as well as unforgettable primate viewing.
Horse lovers and even city-slicker families looking for something completely different can make memories of getting their cowboy on at a guest ranch. Horseback riding, ATV rides through the woods, fly fishing—these all-inclusive stays include daily activities that give everyone a little breathing room and many opportunities to regale each other with adventures over bonfires and fine-dining dinners at the end of the day. |

I can plan your clan’s getaway with ideas and locations that work for all ages and stages. |

Exotic, Enticing, Exciting Morocco |
|
Morocco, you may have noticed, is having a moment. The North African country is attracting a whole new crop of travelers keen to wander its souks, marvel at the Islamic architecture and indulge in the cuisine – an incredible blend of delicious Arabic, Andalusian and Mediterranean flavors.
In Marrakesh, the 800-year-old grand souk is a must-visit. Amidst all the shopping and haggling, spend some time in the Jemaa el-Fnaa square to see the snake charmers, acrobats, musicians, fakirs, and dancers who gather here. |
|

|
Morocco has seen several new hotels open, including the glamorous Royal Mansour Casablanca on the coast, a passion project of the Moroccan royal family. With remarkable attention to detail and a location near the Old Medina, it’s perfectly placed for exploring the city.
Just steps away, the majestic Hassan II Mosque offers stunning architecture and breathtaking sea views, while the bustling Corniche, lined with cafés and beaches, provides a great setting to experience the local culture. |
|
Top: Chefchaouen | Bottom: Amanjena Desert Dining Experiences |
|
For a break from the buzz of rug shopping in Fez or Marakesh, spend a few days in the slower-paced, blue city of Chefchaouen. It’s a photographer’s dream – many buildings in this 15th-century city built into the mountains are painted sky blue – expect to spend a lot of time admiring the views as you wander the medina and sipping mint tea on your riad’s rooftop to watch the sunset.
Explore the Atlas Mountains for a different kind of Moroccan adventure. I can arrange a private lunch or dinner under the stars with stunning mountain views featuring delicious tagine or a camel trek through the valleys, stopping by traditional Berber villages. |

Stroll in the sooks and soak up the history of Morocco – let’s start planning your visit. |

Advisors Have the Best Travel Tips |
|
As a travel advisor, I have much more to offer than simply booking your next great trip. I'm a seasoned professional – with many miles under my travel belt – not only can you trust me to create an incredible escape, but I've also got plenty of insider tips to share. Here are just a few:
|
|
Airports are busier than ever, but here's a game-changer—let me book you access to airport lounges where you can skip the crowds, relax in style, and even enjoy complimentary food and drinks. Ask me about hidden fast-track security lanes that most travelers don't even know exist!
|
|
Next-Level Travel Insurance |
|
Travel Insurance isn't just about cancellation coverage anymore. Did you know there are policies that cover concierge-level medical assistance no matter where you are? Think of 24/7 access to virtual doctors, emergency airlifts, and even prescriptions sent directly to your hotel room. It's the peace of mind you didn't know you needed.
|
|
While apps like Google Translate have been around for a while, new advancements in offline capabilities mean you can now use the app without any Wi-Fi or data connection—perfect for remote destinations with limited connectivity. Additionally, iTranslate and Papago are apps that are growing in popularity for travelers who need reliable translation without an internet connection.
