When I work with a client, I get to know them. I become familiar with their likes, dislikes, preferences, dreams, and hobbies. I pick up on the little things that matter, from the way they’re greeted to the drink they’re served.
I become part of my client’s trusted inner circle—an accolade I don’t take lightly—because I bring ease and joy into their life. Travel isn’t just something I do, but part of who I am..
An application-only network of travel designers.
Leisure
Honeymoon, milestone celebration, bucket list adventure or simply a lavish getaway, why leave it to chance? Work with me to create your perfect itinerary, we will discuss everything from your dream destination, your interests and passions, to reflecting on what kind of traveller you are. Then leave it to me to work some magic and design something special, just for you.
“We can’t thank Janet enough for our absolutely perfect honeymoon. Everything was beyond our wildest dreams. Nothing went wrong, the transfer services from airports and hotels always on time, car rentals and restaurant reservations always perfect. Everything was thoroughly organized, detailed and taken care of. ”
“Janet carefully took our requirements and came up with several incredible options. Everything worked like clock work and the standard of service we received was outstanding. We will be using Janet again for other planned trips, and can’t recommend her highly enough. A true travel professional.”
RETREATS
You are a business coach who understands that the success of your retreat depends not just on your content, or the destination, it is also about the little details from dietary requirements and allergies, to addressing accessibility concerns. In this service I take time to understand the needs of your event, and the individual attendees. From sourcing venues and negotiating contracts on your behalf, to arranging flowers and special menus, I take the stress out of planning your retreat, so you just need to create the content and wow your guests.
“When it came to the detailed, and sometimes complicated travel requirements of my VIP retreats, there really was just one person to do it. Janet took the time to understand the needs of my business, and the individuals attending my retreats. Her extensive contacts and experience in luxury travel, enabled her to negotiate contracts on our behalf. Her attention to detail saved me time and money.”
“The Borgo was fantastic and Dario and the team went all out to make it great. His wife was our chef and that made it even more special having our meals in the main common area.The conference room was also ready just in time and that was another great add on. It all worked out to create such a special experience which we could never have achieved at a hotel. Thanks for finding this gem.”
HOW IT
WORKS
The style in which you travel is as unique as your fingerprint. The things that light you up, the sights that steal your heart and the experiences that fill you with a rush of exhilaration are different from everyone else, even those travelling to the same destination as you. That’s why my job is about so much more than matching you to the right corner of the globe.
Tailoring a trip so that it perfectly fits each client is an art as well as a science – it’s why I consider myself a travel designer. Yes, I make sure that all the logistics are taken care of, but I also devise a holiday with a flavour that fits who you are.
Here’s a little taste of how the process of designing your dream trip works:
THE FIRST STEP…
after your initial enquiry is for me to get to know you and what makes you tick. I’ll create a detailed custom questionnaire for you and your travel companions, to find out more about the things and places you love, your travel style, the budget you have to work with and a whole lot more besides.
WE’LL THEN…
have a call to discuss your answers and confirm the travel brief.
I’LL PUT TOGETHER…
an initial outline with a range of options for you to select from,
giving you a taster of several itineraries and activities.
WITH GUIDANCE FROM YOU…
I’ll create a full and final itinerary, including detailed information on transport, accommodation, sightseeing, activities and more, all guaranteed to make your trip extra special.
ON THE
GROUND
Visiting a new place is a wonder and a privilege. It’s fundamental that every trip I plan is respectful and authentic to the culture and the people of the destination in question. I am proud to work with a select network of partners across the world, who add their priceless local knowledge to my proposed itineraries. While you’re on your trip, you’ll have access to one of my contacts on the ground to assist with any location specific questions, and to help to make your experience an unforgettable one.
