About Me

Always Learning from ASTA
Always Learning from ASTA

I’m Heidi, your go-to travel planner for unforgettable European adventures. With a passion for exploring the hidden gems and iconic landmarks of Europe, I've planned trips in almost every country across this diverse and enchanting continent. Not only have I meticulously organized these journeys, but I've also had the pleasure of visiting nearly every European country myself, soaking in the culture, history, and cuisine firsthand.

Why Choose Me?

Creative & Fun

Travel should be exciting and tailored to your unique tastes and interests. Whether it's a food and wine tour through Tuscany, a biking adventure in the French countryside, or a hiking expedition in the Swiss Alps, I bring creativity and flair to every itinerary. I love mixing the must-see attractions with off-the-beaten-path discoveries that you won't find in any guidebook.

Detail-Oriented & Knowledgeable

I pride myself on being incredibly detail-oriented. From the moment you contact me to the final leg of your journey, every aspect of your trip is carefully considered and planned. My extensive knowledge of Europe—its cities, countryside, and everything in between—ensures that you get the most authentic and enriching experiences possible.

Personalized & Customizable

No two travelers are the same, and neither are my trips. Every vacation I plan is fully customized to meet your needs and wants. Whether you’re a history buff, a foodie, an art enthusiast, or an adventure seeker, I use my past experiences and a vast network of contacts to create a vacation that’s perfect for you.

What I Can Do for You

  • Big City Explorations: From Paris to Prague, Madrid to Munich, I can craft the perfect urban adventure with sightseeing, dining, and cultural experiences.
  • Food & Wine Tours: Indulge in the culinary delights of Europe with bespoke food and wine tours, visiting vineyards, local markets, and gourmet restaurants.
  • Biking & Hiking Trips: For the active traveler, I organize biking and hiking trips that take you through breathtaking landscapes and charming villages.
  • Art Tours: Dive into the art scene with guided tours of world-famous museums and hidden art gems. Whether it’s the Louvre in Paris or a private gallery in Florence, art lovers will be in heaven.
  • Private Tours: Enjoy exclusive, personalized tours with local guides who offer deep insights into their cities and regions.

Ready to explore Europe like never before?

Let’s turn your travel dreams into reality with a trip that’s meticulously planned, wonderfully personalized, and absolutely unforgettable. Contact me today, and let's start planning your next great adventure!

Fabulous Trip
Reviewed By Nancie - Ship Bottom, NJ | Traveled to Europe
We couldn’t have done it without Heidi. From our initial request for help through the final ride back home, she was with us. The areas we needed the most help - connecting flights, hotels at the beginning and end of our trip, tours, etc - Heidi was spot on. Perfect!

Great trip
Reviewed By Pat - NC | Traveled to Danube | On the River | At Sea
Thanks to Heidi for a great trip beginning with making all the arrangements and guiding us through the trip. Heidi helped us navigate a flight that was cancelled and getting us on a new flight as quickly as possible. She knew exactly what to do and where we should be in order to catch the next available flight without having any issues. Throughout our trip she helped us pick excursions and restaurants on land. All in all she was a fabulous travel agent and made our trip wonderful and easy. Will definitely call on her again for travel plans.

River Queens Extravaganza
Reviewed By KG123 - Weston, CT | Traveled to Danube | On the River | At Sea
Heidi planned a girls river cruise for our group of 6 and it was amazing! After giving us an exhaustive list of options we choose an itinerary and Heidi did the rest. She scheduled Zooms to review our excursions and detailed what each location would entail. She helped us book additional tours and offered suggestions for meals off the boat. No detail was missed. I highly recommend Fontaine Travel and will use them on my next adventure too!
