I design thoughtful and
meaningful travel
that result in unforgettable, transformative experiences and deeper bonds with those you travel with and love.
I can help you realize your
dream vacation
Beautiful experiences that will leave you forever changed
make
your travel matter
This is what you can expect from my well-designed itineraries:
Luxury Accomodations
It can mean a boutique eight-room hotel in the middle of a vineyard facing the Duoro River, or a discreet luxury hotel in the Sacred Valley on the banks of the Urubamba River. The luxury is in the enviable location, exemplary service and attention to design and detail.
Private Tours
Having a private guide for you and your family/group of friends is key to enjoying and making the most of your exploration. Go at your own pace. Don’t feel rushed or herded. This is your tour.
History
Where else can you better understand and appreciate a destination’s cultural and historical heritage than a museum? Take a guided tour for a more in-depth and personal experience.
Local Interaction
I will help you find the activities and experiences based on your profile that will give you the opportunity to interact with the locals in a very authentic manner.
Fantastic Food
I will seek out the best food spots for you and will even make your restaurant reservations so you won’t miss out on the best culinary offerings of every destination. Sometimes, this will even include a cooking class with a local market visit. More on this Bali cooking class…
I believe food plays a very important role in travel and I hope you do too.
Art
Whichever you prefer, indoor art in museums or outdoor street art, this is a great vehicle to learn and understand a country’s culture.

and a little Shopping
Blame it on my past life in the fashion industry. I love discovering local artisans, crafts people, unique shops and products that you can’t find back home. This kind of retail therapy still plays a part in the destination’s culture and heritage, or so I justify. Tip: for pure abandon and delight, best to leave the husband back at the hotel.

Are you planning a quick getaway? You can book online for a hotel or resort and still lock in your extra Virtuoso amenities such as complimentary breakfasts and resort credit as well as room upgrades and early check-in and late check-out when available.
