I finally decided to stop making excuses and just go to Greece, whether or not I could find a travel buddy. Sally really helped ease my anxieties and fears about taking such a big trip alone, and after all that, once she heard about my awesome trip itinerary, my friend wanted to join me. We had the best time in Athens and the island hopping was other level awesome! Sally's hotel suggestions were on point, and the ferry tutorial was so helpful. I recommend Sally to anyone looking for the best travel agent!

Sally is my now my go-to travel planner! All the thoughtful details and insider tips were fantastic. I appreciate that she really focuses on solo female travel safety and providing me with helpful suggestions on everything from packing to which tours to take. I loved my Finland/Estonia itinerary and am already thinking about where I want to go to next. Thanks, Ms. Sally!

We had been wanting to explore Rome and the surrounding cities in Italy, but were feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the logistics. Sally swooped in and saved our trip! She was able to advise and suggest the most conveniently located hotels, as well as connect us with some really spectacular tours. Other than the excessive heatwave that was taking place while we were there, we loved our Rome vacation so much and can't wait to go back and explore more of Italy. Thanks so much for all your dedicated efforts, Sally!

I talked to a few agents before Sally, and it was pretty obvious none of them actually knew Asia the way they claimed to. Sally is listed as an Asia specialist, and I needed someone like that for a last minute business trip to Hong Kong. She told me Hong Kong is having a moment right now, and she was not exaggerating. I had zero idea how cool this city is. I went in dreading a week of meetings and came out with one of the best trips I've had in years. Everything she told me upfront turned out to be spot on, and having that much information going in made me feel completely prepared before I even landed. Between the cha chaan tengs, the temples, and skyscrapers that genuinely made me stop and stare, I didn't know where to look first. Dim sum, noodles, egg tarts, I think I ate my way through half the city in five days. I'm hooked. I need more. If this is what Sally can pull off on short notice for a business trip, I already know who I'm calling first when I start planning my next one.

Four of us travelers, four different Iceland fantasies, one big disagreement over the Ring Road. We were referred to Sally by our friends who went last year and thankfully we were not led astray. Sally sorted it out fast, laying things out clearly enough that four total newbies actually understood the tradeoffs. She built an itinerary that was a mix of driving and tours that made everyone happy. Riding those Icelandic horses through the lava fields was THE highlight, hands down. She has no agenda, just genuinely designs around her clients. Recommending her to everyone we know.

We came to Sally wanting a family trip to Japan with our kids, (late teens to early twenties), and left with a mind-blowing education. We really gave her carte blanche, as we had never been to anywhere in Asia before and being an Asia Specialist, we quickly realized that we should just follow her lead. She built in a private tea ceremony that had all of us, including our normally glued to their phones kids, completely present and quiet, just soaking it in. In Tokyo she sent us to a sword shop none of our friends had ever heard of, and yes, we bought a real one and had it shipped home to LA. It's now the most talked about thing in our living room. When we told Sally we were open to immersive experiences we didn't realize we would be sleeping in traditional ryokans one week and checking into a Four Seasons the next, yet both felt exactly right for that moment of the trip. We played Pachinko until midnight, watched Kabuki theatre, and saw more in ten days than any of us imagined possible. Everything went so well, the app she uses is priceless and we all had it on our phones. We came home more curious, already texting Sally asking which country in Asia she thinks we should venture to next. This is what happens when someone actually knows how to design a trip, not just book one.

Best advice we got the whole trip was to skip the rental car and take the trains. Sally advised us early on and she was right, we never once stressed about driving, just enjoyed the scenery. She provided personalized service from planning through the last day, and we felt spoiled. The small villages she sent us to were exactly what my wife and I wanted, even though we couldn't have told you that ourselves. Her read on sunset over the Ribeira in Porto was spot on, and honestly we hated to leave that hotel. Let me tell you, there is no AI that can replace what Sally brings to a trip.

I've never traveled alone before, and honestly felt weird even reaching out for help planning it. Ten days across Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Oslo felt huge for a first solo trip. I talked to a handful of other agents, but Sally really listened and talked me off the ledge about my fears, and even shared her own stories and photos from when she'd done something similar. The process was very thorough, and she thoughtfully involved me in an empowering kind of way. She chose great hotels that were in line with my budget and located in areas where I genuinely felt safe walking at night. She booked me some terrific tours and activities, all while keeping my interests and comfort zone in mind. The fjord cruise in Norway made me feel like I was on a National Geographic expedition and the afternoon at Tivoli Gardens was everything she said it would be and more. Her passion for travel is truly contagious, and I felt like I could trust her instincts completely. Now I get it and will tell anyone who will listen: a good travel designer is worth every penny!

Six of us went to Puglia with the help of Sally's planning, and she is simply an expert. No doubt about it. Every day flowed into the next so beautifully, no back-tracking, and the restaurants she picked were such a delectable focal point of our trip. She convinced us to add a night in Matera, and honestly, standing in those cave dwellings at sunset is a memory none of us will ever shake. What set her apart was that this wasn't just booking flights and hotels, she has actually lived it, and it showed in every detail and recommendation. Book her. Trust her.

My husband and I are planners by nature. We usually have color coded spreadsheets for vacations, but for our honeymoon we wanted to actually be married, not argue over TripAdvisor reviews. A friend recommended Sally, and that one conversation saved our sanity. From the first call, Sally asked questions nobody else had. Not just "beach or jungle," but how we actually like to travel. Do we want every day mapped out, or room to get lost? Are we early risers or brunch people? Did we want a big celebration, or to keep it quiet? It felt less like booking a vacation and more like she was getting to know us. Two weeks later she sent the draft itinerary and I teared up a little (my husband will deny it, but he did too). She'd built in three nights in the rice terraces of Ubud, days on the water in Amed for snorkeling, and a villa in Uluwatu with a private pool facing the sunset. It was timed, we later realized, to land on our one week wedding anniversary. We never mentioned the date. She just remembered it from our first call and quietly built the trip around it. The details were what really got us. She'd flagged a tiny warung in Ubud that wasn't on any list we'd seen, arranged a driver who told us stories about the temples we passed, and left handwritten notes about which beach to catch sunrise versus sunset. When a flight got shuffled and threw off a transfer, she'd already rebooked everything before we landed and messaged to say don't worry, it's handled. We didn't have to think. We just got to be there, together. If we had tried the DIY route we would have spent our honeymoon squabbling over logistics in a hotel lobby. Instead we came home more in love than when we left, with zero regrets. If you're getting married, or just need someone to plan a trip like they actually care about you and not just their commission, it's Sally. Every time. Signed, A very happy, very tan, newly married couple.

My husband and I have worked with travel agents before but never anyone as insightful as Sally. She is so much more than just a travel planner, she really is an architect of travel. She has so much experience in the destinations she specializes in (in this instance, it was Japan) that you immediately feel at ease and trust that Sally has it all under control. She urged us to go beyond the usual Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and suggested an off-the-beaten path stay in Omihachiman at one of the most beautiful accommodations you can imagine, housed inside a 190-year-old former Edo-period tatami shop next to a canal. We couldn't believe our eyes. Just stunning in every way and definitely away from the tourist crowds. What a find!! Also worth noting is the app she uses. We just loved looking at it every night thinking about what adventures the next day would bring. We just can't thank Sally enough for thinking outside the box and allowing us to experience the real Japan, away from all the madness and crowds. We would most definitely recommend her to anyone looking for expert travel planning.

We worked with Sally last year and knew she was the one to help us plan our Hong Kong adventure 2026. We really had no idea what we were in for when we signed up for Hong Kong. We heard from people who had been there that there really isn't that much to do in Hong Kong. Well Sally proved them wrong, and them some! Hong Kong is such a bustling and fascinating city and Sally knew exactly how to plan our days so that we could really get a taste for this incredible destination where east truly meets west. We did everything from exploring the markets, to enjoying a delicious late night dim sum feast, to riding the ding dings and admiring all the outrageous architecture. We loved our private guide, Travis, who gave us so much insight into the culture and daily life in Hong Kong. We really appreciated his suggestions to stop at the Kwun Yam Temple as well as spending 3 full hours exploring Tai Kwun! What a place! We just loved every day even more that the one before. Our stay at the iconic Regent Hong Kong was definitely the perfect choice. We truly loved every single minute of this adventure and we owe it all to Sally! Like everyone else says, she really is the best!

Planning a last-minute trip to Puglia only four weeks before departure felt overwhelming, but Sally made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly understand what we were looking for—not just a place to stay, but an authentic Italian experience. She found us beautiful accommodations in Bari, Trani, and Polignano a Mare that perfectly matched our vision. Every location was within our budget and featured exactly what we had hoped for, including balconies, stunning ocean views, and easy walking access to restaurants, shops, and the heart of each town. We loved being able to step outside our hotel and immediately immerse ourselves in the local culture. Sally was incredibly patient throughout the planning process, carefully listening to our preferences and offering thoughtful options until we found the perfect fit. She also provided wonderful recommendations for local restaurants, tours, and experiences that enhanced our trip and helped us discover places we might never have found on our own. What impressed us most was her responsiveness and attention to detail. Despite the short timeline, she consistently replied quickly, kept everything organized, and made us feel like we were her top priority. Her professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care gave us complete confidence throughout the planning process. If you’re looking for a travel advisor who listens, understands your vision, respects your budget, and goes above and beyond to create an unforgettable vacation, I recommend Sally without hesitation. Thanks to her expertise, our trip to Puglia was everything we had dreamed of and more. We will absolutely be using her again for our future travels!

We reached out to Sally to help us plan our Singapore honeymoon after spending weeks trying to plan it ourselves and getting completely overwhelmed. She is such a pro. She took over what we had planned so far, organized it logistically, and then suggested a mix of city time, food experiences, a few private tours thrown in which were actually really great. She called it by advising us to schedule a few quiet days at the end of our trip, which turned out to be exactly what we needed. We definitely had enough structure to see the highlights of Singapore but still had room to wander, eat, and just recover from our wedding. The hawker centers were so much fun to explore and eat at, we were totally amused by them. And our dinner at Lavo Italian restaurant at the Marina Bay Sands was just perfect. One of our favorite memories from our trip. I'll absolutely use Sally again for our next big trip.

My boyfriend and I worked with Sally on a trip to Portugal to celebrate our first anniversary, and it ended up being one of those picture perfect trips that we will cherish forever. We split our time between Lisbon, Porto, and the Douro Valley, admiring the unique and fascinating personalities of each. We loved our hotels, as they were such a good fit for us based on location, esthetics, and price range. One thing that was so great about working with Sally was that she took the time to ask questions and listen in order to understand our travel style and interests. We aren't the type of travelers who want every minute scheduled, but we also don't want to spend our vacation constantly trying to figure out where to go next. Sally designed a really comfortable schedule with activities for us including private and small group tours, meals ranging from casual to fine dining, an unforgettable Fado music dinner show, and wine tasting. Everything was so well organized in the mobile app Sally had us use. We loved looking at all the info and photos she provided each night in preparation for the next day. By the time we boarded our flight home, we both agreed that Portugal had moved into our top three favorite places on earth. We're already talking about our next adventure and where we might want to go. One thing is for sure, we will definitely work with Sally again. Thank you, Sally, for helping make this such a memorable trip for both of us.

I've traveled quite a bit over the years, and yet Sicily somehow managed to exceed every expectation I had. The funny part is that it wasn't even originally at the top of my list. I reached out to Sally as a solo female travel specialist and she kept saying she thought Sicily would be a great fit for me based on the kinds of places I enjoy. So I trusted her and went for it. She was absolutely right! Every stop felt different. The farm stay in Scicli. Oh that farm! And Carlo and Vincenzo were the sweetest hosts ever! I loved wandering the narrow streets of all the small towns in the mornings before things got busy, and sitting in little piazzas with a cappuccino, watching life unfold around me in the afternoons before heading to the beach for a swim. Long and lingering lunches that usually turned into two to three hours, just because. The food. Every meal was straight out of an issue of Bon Appetit magazine. I still miss the pistachio pasta, cannolo, and the seafood dinner I had on my last night. Every meal was "the best meal" of the trip. What I appreciated most about working with Sally was that the recommendations came from her own personal experiences and knowledge of the area, not from an AI-generated list. I also had a transport issue pop up during the trip, and instead of spending half a day stressing about it, I reached out to Sally and she helped reroute me, so I got to spend an extra day in Palermo at the markets. What a pro! I've come home from great trips before but this time was different. Even while on the plane home, I was already trying to figure out when I can take my next trip, and of course I will be working with Sally.

A few weeks before our Japan trip, we were notified by the hotel they would be doing construction in our wing and as that did not sound ideal for us at all, we reached out to Travel Leaders who paired us with Sally in hopes of her finding us an acceptable replacement accommodation. Sally jumped in right away and found us a hotel that we ended up loving! That alone made this service worth it. But, upon communicating with her, we realized we were missing some things from our own itinerary so we asked Sally to take a look and help us fill in the gaps. She was such a huge help! Restructured our days to create a better flow for the trip, added in a couple of private tours for context, history, and culture which were both amazing, and advised us of common Japan pitfalls, which we never would have known about had we not worked with Sally. She entered everything into a beautifully formatted itinerary inside of a mobile app which was so convenient and useful. We referenced it at least a dozen times every day! It may sound cliche, but Kyoto was our favorite. However, our sunrise hike through Fushimi Inari was the best pro-tip ever! As we were leaving, all the tour buses were showing up and we were thanking our lucky stars that we were on our way out versus in. A sensational trip and a huge relief knowing that we now have our forever trip planner, Sally!

Taiwan had been sitting on my wish list for years but honestly I was feeling a bit intimidated by the whole planning process for somewhere that felt so foreign to me. I researched advisors who had Taiwan experience and ended up connecting with Sally. What a perfect match! She too is a solo traveler and has been to Taiwan several times, with local connections, so that made me feel so much better about her perspective and advice while planning my trip. Jiufen. Those alleyways, drinking tea, and lanterns. Forever imprinted on my brain. I told Sally that food was probably my number one priority and she definitely understood that. The night markets and Michelin dining alone were worth the trip. Polar opposite dining experiences, loved them all. Working with Sally felt so personal and comprehensive. She left no details out of the itinerary and I really felt taken care of by her during the whole process as well as the trip itself. I know we will be working together again, hopefully sooner than later!

There were five of us girls on this Greece trip and after way too much back and forth, we decided to look for professional help. One of the girls was referred to Sally by her friend who had worked with her and loved her, so we all agreed to let her help us plan our trip. One wanted beaches. One wanted shopping. One wanted great food. One wanted a deep dive on the history. However, I just wanted to sit outside with a glass of wine and stare at the water for a week. Our dinner at a little family-run restaurant in Naxos was like a scene from a movie. And none of us wanted to leave. We kept ordering "one more thing" and stayed there for hours and hours. Sally really scored high in finding us a great boutique hotel where the local owners felt like family members by the end of the trip. She respected our budget while making sure we all got to do what we wanted to do. The private tours were actually so fun because the guides were so passionate and knowledgable about all things Greece. Of course the food, sunshine and water were all unforgettable. Thank God she advised us to go before all the crowds show up in late June and into July and August. Mid-May really was the perfect time to go. Thank you, Sally! We really appreciate all your hard work and the app with the itinerary on it was the best thing ever!

Traveling with three kids can sometimes feel like moving a small army, but Denmark was one of the few trips we have taken as a family where things actually felt manageable. All thanks to Sally's expert planning. The Viking Ship Museum ended up being a bigger hit than I expected and Tivoli Gardens was an absolute home run. Even our teenager admitted he had fun, which is about the highest praise possible. The best part for me was not having to spend every evening figuring out what came next. Working with Sally really was the best decision we could have made.

My husband and I spent 10 days in Poland and had an incredible experience. We knew we wanted to see Kraków and Warsaw, but Sally encouraged us to spend a couple of nights in Wroclaw as well. That ended up being one of our favorite stops. One afternoon we wandered through Market Square and spent almost an hour looking for the little bronze dwarf statues hidden around the city. It sounds silly, but it became a running competition between the two of us. The route Sally put together made the trip feel balanced instead of rushed. We got the history we were looking for, but also had time to sit at outdoor cafes and enjoy the cities at a slower pace. Having recommendations from someone who had actually visited Poland herself made a huge difference.

I'll be honest, before this trip, I thought travel planners were mostly for luxury travelers. Even after contracting with Sally to plan our trip, I wasn't fully sold on the idea. And then, our family trip to Taiwan happened. A few days before departure, one of our flights was changed by the airline, which not only created a domino effect with our arrival time, transportation, and tour plans, but also quite a bit of anxiety as well. I sent Sally an email that probably sounded rather dramatic and desperate, and by the time I woke up the next morning, she had already worked through alternatives and adjusted everything. The trip itself was simply fantastic. Taipei was so vibrant and exciting, the food was incredible, and our kids are still talking about our tour guides and the night markets. We also spent time outside the city, which ended up being one of our favorite parts of the trip, thanks to Sally's advice. What impressed me most wasn't when everything was going according to plan, but it was seeing how quickly Sally stepped in when it wasn't. Instead of spending hours on hold with airlines and hotels, and trying to figure things out from another time zone, we got to focus on just enjoying our vacation. Sally is a life saver and a pro. We'll absolutely use her again.

Planning a multi-generational trip for eight people ranging in age from 11 to 78 sounds like a recipe for chaos. All I can say is, thank God we found Sally! She organized a flawless itinerary through Italy that somehow satisfied everyone. The grandparents loved the slower-paced days, the kids loved the hands-on experiences, and the rest of us appreciated not having to coordinate every detail ourselves. There were so many moving parts, yet everything felt so well organized. I was so thankful for the mobile app she had us download that had the very detailed itinerary that Sally created in it with every single detail, confirmation number, and document we would need throughout our entire trip. I think everyone really enjoyed looking at the photos she added as our departure time grew closer. Most importantly, we got to spend our time making memories together instead of dealing with travel logistics. If you're on the fence about using a travel planner, don't be. Sally made this trip one our family will never forget. The small investment will pay off big time! She is not just a travel planner, she is truly a travel designer. Our deep appreciation to you, Sally. We can't wait to work with you again! Sincerely, The Bell Family

As someone who loves history, I had a pretty specific wish list for this trip. Sally somehow managed to fit in everything I wanted while still making it feel like a vacation rather than an educational marathon. Warsaw, Kraków, Vilnius, and several smaller stops all had their own personality. The flow of my days was perfect with just the right amount of historical sites, local culture, food, and free time all mixed in. Her recommendations helped me understand these countries in a much deeper way than I could have by simply following guidebooks. This was one of the most meaningful trips I've ever taken. Thank you for all of you excellent work, Sally. You are a true professional.

We interviewed quite a few travel planners before choosing Sally, and from the very first conversation she understood what we wanted. And she really did make all of our honeymoon dreams come true. Dubrovnik was stunning, but honestly, some of our favorite moments happened on smaller islands during boat excursions she recommended. Everything felt romantic without being cliché. We never had to spend vacation time researching restaurants or figuring out transportation. Instead, we got to focus on enjoying being newly married. Thank you so much for helping create memories we'll be talking about for years.

Four friends planning a trip to Sicily and we quickly became totally overwhelmed with all the saved social media posts, and honestly had no clue where to even start. We researched and found Sally through Travel Leaders, and we are so glad we chose her! She booked us at several charming and authentic accommodations such as an apartment in the middle of a small seaside village and even a farm stay near the southern coast, that was just so dreamy. Every tour, every restaurant, and every day felt full and delicious. Sally’s passion for travel planning and her clear, consistent communication made the entire process stress-free and exciting. She gets so excited describing places and ideas, her positive energy for travel is so infectious! All of our other friends were so jealous of our trip. We’ll always be grateful to Sally for the incredible memories we made in Sicily.

Sally planned our girls’ winter trip to sun-filled Aruba down to the last detail. Between the jeep adventure tours, art walks, hidden beaches, and outstanding restaurants, we discovered parts of the island many tourists never see. Loved it and can't wait to go back again. Thank you, Sally!

We could have never planned our trip as well as Sally did! And she added some really fun surprises in as well. From the moment I first spoke with Sally and heard her enthusiasm for Portugal, I knew we had made the right choice in Travel Advisors. My girlfriend and I got to enjoy a totally stress-free vacation to Portugal, thanks to Sally's expert planning skills. From our flights to the hotels, we loved it all. Thank you, Sally!

Eight people, three generations, ages 6 to 74. We took on Rome, Venice, and Bologna and Sally made us look like absolute geniuses. Her app kept the entire family organized, meaning the grandparents and the teenagers always knew the meeting points and daily schedules. We had one major hiccup when our private gondola tour guide in Venice was a no-show due to an unexpected family emergency. I messaged Sally, and she was on it instantly, partnering with her local connections to get us rebooked with an amazing replacement captain ASAP before the kids could even start complaining! From the gorgeous accommodations she sourced to the incredible wood-fired pizza spot she recommended near the Trevi Fountain, she really thought of everything. Sally is a one-of-a-kind travel designer.

My husband and I traveled to Japan with Sally’s assistance, and her professional, personal approach completely removed our travel anxieties. Navigating Tokyo and Kyoto can feel overwhelming when you have minor mobility limitations, but Sally used her extensive personal experience traveling through Japan to ensure every step of our journey was fully accommodated. She gave us wonderful options based on our own pace, interests, and comfort levels. The traditional ryokan experience she booked for us in Hakone, complete with a private hot spring bath and an exceptional multi-course kaiseki dinner, was just magnificent. Her daily guidance kept us feeling independent yet completely supported. We are forever grateful for her brilliant work.

My sister and I just got back from Copenhagen and we are still buzzing over all of our days and nights. Sally caught our aesthetic vibe immediately, providing us with customized choices that matched our interest in Nordic fashion and mid-century furniture. The hotel she picked for us in Vesterbro, Hotel Ottilia, was incredibly stylish and centrally located. We spent our days browsing independent design shops and eating cardamon buns. And totally geeked out over her app and reading all of her personal suggestions each morning before heading out for the day. Sally is a truly gifted designer who turns a standard vacation into something personal and memorable.

We were feeling some serious envy after our friends got back from Mexico City so we sought out help from Sally to plan our trip. We live for hard-to-get reservations, high design, and deep culture, and Sally delivered a highly unique itinerary for our 4-day weekend in Mexico City. Her passion for designing travel shines through in her meticulous attention to detail. She managed the impossible by locking down a prime lunch table at Contramar and a multi-course tasting menu at Pujol, while structuring our days around private architecture walks in San Ángel. She clearly has personal experience exploring these neighborhoods because every street food stall and gallery she recommended was an absolute gem. The luxury boutique hotel she selected for us in Condesa was stunning. Booking with Sally was the best decision we could have made.

I was genuinely terrified to take my three kids and husband to Athens and Paros, but Sally’s professional and structured approach to travel design completely erased my anxiety. She listened to our frantic family needs and gave us incredible choices tailored right to our style, including a spectacular family suite at the Grande Bretagne with a direct view of the Acropolis. Unfortunately, our airline lost two of our bags on the way into Athens. Thank God Sally had ensured we had premium travel insurance and stepped in immediately, helping us coordinate with the courier so the bags arrived at our hotel the next morning without us missing a beat! Our time in Paros was pure bliss, especially the private catamaran cruise she arranged. She is worth every dime.

Sally is a total pro. Me and three buddies went to Chiang Mai and Phuket and she dialed it in perfectly based on our timing and interests. She found us this insane private pool villa at the Katathani Beach Resort in Phuket and hooked up a wild ATV tour through the jungle in Chiang Mai and a visit to the elephants at ENP. Her professional attitude and insider knowledge made everything feel so legit and authentic. The coolest part was having her app on our phones. It literally laid out our whole day, told us where to eat Khao Soi, and kept our flight updates live. We highly recommend Sally. She is a stellar travel designer .

I am incredibly particular about my itineraries, but Sally blew me away with the sheer uniqueness of the curated itinerary she built for my Iceland solo trip. I wanted an adventure that felt rugged but safe, completely avoiding the massive tour buses. She mapped out a self-drive route through the South Coast, booking me into tiny, family-run guesthouses like the cozy Midgard Base Camp that I never would have discovered on my own. Her custom travel app was an absolute lifesaver, it had my daily driving maps, packing lists, weather warnings, and hotel vouchers neatly organized in one convenient place that worked completely offline. You can tell she is deeply passionate about travel design, and the private ice caving excursion she arranged on Vatnajökull glacier and Northern lights show were the highlight of my year. I will absolutely be using her services for all my future travels.

Sally completely tailored our sampler trip through Rome, Venice, and Puglia to fit our personal budget and interests perfectly. We loved the pacing of the trip, not too hectic, but enough to give us a taste of these different cities/regions. Staying at Masseria Torre Coccaro down in Puglia was a dream, and her custom travel app made tracking our train transfers so easy. She is a phenomenal travel designer and worth every single penny.

Working with Sally was an absolute dream from start to finish; she took our vision for a two-person trip to South Korea and turned it into a varied yet immersive itinerary that we will cherish forever. Sally’s expert sense of pacing and neighborhood contrast is what truly sets her apart as a world-class travel designer, starting our adventure amid the coastal beauty and vibrant seaside energy of Busan before moving us into the completely different world of Seongsu-dong, where the trendy cafes and creative boutiques gave us the perfect modern vibe. The crown jewel of the entire experience, however, was how she chose to close our journey with a traditional hanok stay in Seoul as our final stop. Stepping out of the fast-paced city into the peaceful, historic architecture of the hanok was a poetic way to slow down and reflect on our travels, making for a flawless vacation that we cannot recommend highly enough!

My husband and I finally decided it was time to discover Italy and Sally built an absolute dream itinerary that included all the iconic sights as well as authentic local culture. Moving through Rome, Venice, Tuscany, Florence, Naples, and Pompeii could have felt like too much but Sally managed the rhythm so beautifully that we never felt rushed or exhausted. The accommodations were spectacular, shifting from grand luxury hotels in Rome and Venice to a rustic farm stay in the heart of Tuscany and an intimate boutique hotel in Florence. Every day brought a new adventure, a new highlight, whether we were taking a private art tour of the Vatican, exploring the ruins of Pompeii with an expert guide, or attending a spine-chilling evening opera. Sally made sure we experienced the true Italian lifestyle, pointing us to the best piazzas for people watching over morning espressos and arranging a wide variety of incredible culinary experiences, from countryside truffle pasta to fresh coastal seafood. If you want an expertly executed, highly personalized Italian vacation, Sally is the one you want.

A group of five of us went to Hong Kong to celebrate a big milestone birthday, and thankfully I urged the group to hire Sally. We were worried that planning for a group with different styles would be stressful, but Sally designed an itinerary worked for everyone. She struck the ultimate balance between the city's high-energy nightlife and its rich cultural side. We spent our days exploring the trendy shops in Soho and taking a private tram ride up to Victoria Peak, followed by a beautiful afternoon boat trip out to the quiet beaches of Lamma Island. The Regent Hong Kong in Tsim Sha Tsui had spectacular harbor views and was walking distance to everything. The celebration dinner at Le Petit Chef was literally chef's kiss. The app Sally uses was a absolute lifesaver for keeping all our details straight. If you are planning a group getaway, Sally is amazing!

We started planning our honeymoon to Thailand and it quickly became overwhelming and totally stressed us out. Our friends who recently worked with Sally on their honeymoon told us she was the best, so we contacted her directly. We knew right away she was the real deal. We shared ideas about our honeymoon and gave her some parameters, and she immediately dialed in and suggested focusing our time on the cultural side of Chiang Mai followed by a quiet retreat on the coast of Phuket. She provided us with legit hotel options to choose from. We went with a riverside hotel that bathed us in attention (obsessed!), and a insane villa near the beach in Phuket. Both places were fire. She arranged a private tour for us one morning at the Elephant Nature Park and a private street food tour through the Chiang Mai night markets. But then there were those days laying beside our pool at the villa near Karon Beach and we definitely talked about never coming home. Sally crushed it!

Sally came highly recommended to us by friends who have worked with her. She is very professional yet personable in her approach to travel planning. An introductory call where she let us share what we were looking for and then explained how she works. Set our minds at ease about working with a travel planner. Based on what we shared, Sally suggested Folegandros instead of Santorini for our anniversary, and it was the best advice we’ve could have received. We enjoyed a stunning boutique hotel and those picture perfect quiet cobblestone streets. Instead of pushing us toward the usual crowded tourist traps, she had us exploring the sleepy, whitewashed alleys of the medieval Kastro district and relaxing in the beautiful interconnected squares of Chora. She even mapped out the absolute best time for us to walk up the iconic winding cliffside path to the Church of Panagia. Trust me, you cannot get this level of expertise from AI alone. A once in a lifetime trip, thanks to Sally.

Planning a massive multi-stop trip across Japan for four opinionated adults is daunting. We spoke to several agents before finding Sally and we're so glad we did! Our first conversation was so inspiring. Listening to her stories and advice made us feel very comfortable with our choice. Incredibly responsive, warm, and structured communication throughout the design process. We asked for so many extra bits of information (such as local customs, tipping, etc) and she happily added it all into the itinerary. Japan is just wonderful and all of our accommodations were stunning, each with its own unique character. We had some days on our own, blended with some private guided tours which we so loved. The pace, the sights, the food, the nature, the temples, the onsens!! We ate it all up. Every detail was well thought out, well-timed and created just for us. We really appreciate every bit of time and effort Sally spent creating this experience for us and would gladly recommend her to others.

We found Sally on a Google search as we decided to enlist help on our trip to Puglia since neither of us (or any of our friends) had any prior knowledge of the region. I don't know how many times Sally has been to Puglia, but she knows the towns, villages, and beaches very well. She chose such fantastic hotels for us, as if she had known us for years, snagged a table for us at a tiny, reservation-only elegant seafood restaurant right on the water in Monopoli, and linked us up with the best ever private cooking class in Bari. We had such a magnificent time that we are going back for more next year! We are telling all our friends about the wonders of Puglia ... and Sally!

I am incredibly detail-oriented and have very high standards and Sally exceeded every single one on my short but sweet solo voyage to Taipei. Every restaurant was unbelievable, the train transfers were mapped out for me, and the digital app kept all my documents and details handy. Complete peace of mind. I cannot wait to return to explore more of Taiwan and I know just who I will call to design my trip!

To celebrate our daughter graduating college with honors, we wanted something epic but cohesive. It seemed Sally was the best person for the job. She linked a stunning journey through Iceland's rugged South Coast with a chic weekend in London on the back end and honestly, the contrast was brilliant. Her app kept us all organized and on schedule, and the communication throughout the planning was stellar. Such a pleasure to work with her. We have already recommended Sally to several of our friends who travel.

I explicitly told Sally that if we were put on a tour bus with 30 other people, we were flying home. Sally laughed and went on to craft a 100% customized Sicilian itinerary. We had private drivers, a private cooking class in an old Palermo palace, stayed at a dreamy masseria in SE Sicily, and took an incredible hiking excursion up Mt. Etna with a volcanologist. This is how travel is supposed to be experienced. Hats off to Sally for a job well done! Can't wait for our next adventure.

A lot of people can book flights and hotels, but very few understand the true rhythm of travel. Sally understands the flow. The way my days shifted from high-energy urban exploration in Hong Kong to mindful, restorative mornings in a Northern Thailand rainforest sanctuary felt like poetry. No rushed mornings, no exhausting 10-hour transit traps. This was the trip of a lifetime thanks to Sally! Strongly recommend!

Midway through our trip in Kyoto, my husband suffered a sudden, severe allergic reaction. We were terrified, in a country where we didn't speak the language, and unsure where to go. I quickly reached out to Allianz, referencing our policy inside the travel app, and Sally also responded within a few minutes. Allianz teamed up with Sally and immediately routed us to an international clinic, contacted the doctors ahead of time, and stepped in to handle all communication so we could focus entirely on his health. The insurance covered the medical expenses fully, and Sally even rearranged our remaining tours so we didn't miss a thing once he recovered. Unmatched service.

Sally listened beautifully on our intro call as we described how our kids are at that tricky age where they get bored easily and aren't quite ready for long, (sometimes dry) historical tours. She reassured us that she would be able to create an itinerary that would keep everyone entertained on our trip to Greece. Her itinerary included a mythological comic book-making workshop that the kids absolutely loved and then in Naxos a beach club where Mommy and Daddy could relax with a couple of cocktails, while the kids played in the sand. She communicated frequently during the design process, keeping us perfectly on budget. The mobile app is just fantastic, keeping everything organized so my husband and I didn't lose our minds tracking papers and emails while traveling. Thanks to Sally, this trip was sensational!

Sally sure does justice to Greece. We immediately bonded on our initial phone call and I knew she was going to be the person to design our trip to Crete. We loved all the questions she asked, to better understand who we are and what kind of a trip we wanted this to be. The hotel selection was otherworldly, featuring a converted historic mansion right on the harbor with impeccable, 5-star service. The private wine-tasting excursion she set up in the White Mountains was the highlight of our year. Everything was exactly how we dreamed it would be. Sally is a thoughtful, creative, professional, and meticulous trip planner and we would highly recommend her to anyone.

Expert destination knowledge is on full display here. Sally knew exactly which F-roads were manageable for a solo driver in the Highlands and which areas required a specialized super-jeep tour. Unbelievable landscapes, flawless communication, and a trip tailored precisely to my photography goals. I will only use Sally for my future travels.

After speaking with a few different agents, we choice Sally, based on her knowledge of the area and overall passionate energy toward travel. We explained to her that we wanted to visit the islands of Greece, but absolutely no massive cruise ship crowds. Sally designed a breathtaking itinerary across Milos and Sifnos. We spent our days swimming in volcanic coves and eating fresh seafood at tavernas where no one spoke English. The mobile app held all our documents and confirmations as well as ferry tickets, which was the ultimate convenience when traveling. The trip was a 10/10 and so is Sally!

Two days before our flight to Reykjavik, a massive storm grounded all flights out of our home airport. We were devastated and panicked. Thank goodness Sally had insisted on a travel insurance policy during the planning phase. While we were stressing, Sally was already on the phone with Allianz and the airline. Sally rebooked our entire Icelandic road trip sequence, salvaged our glacier hiking bookings, and ensured our out-of-pocket losses were zero. Having an advocate during a travel crisis is worth every single penny. Thank you, Sally! We will be back!

I work way too much and while I am sure I could have planned this trip myself, I honestly just do not have the mental bandwidth or time. Short, sweet, and perfectly executed. Sally picked Ravello as my base to avoid the heavy Positano crowds, which was brilliant. Every recommendation was spot-on. This trip was so perfect. Just what I needed. I would recommend her without a doubt.

We just can't say enough good things about Sally. She truly is an architect of travel. She really does create an itinerary based on individual travel styles and interests. The flow of this trip was just spectacular. Moving four adults with different sleeping patterns, energy levels, and interests through Florence and the Tuscan countryside could have been a logistical nightmare. Yet, every day transitioned beautifully into the next, like a dream. The private villa Sally found for us was centrally located, making day trips incredibly easy. We will never forget our farm-to-table dinner under the Tuscan sun. Doesn't even seem real. We are already in discussions about our next adventure!

We were very hesitant to work with a travel planner, and on our intro call with Sally we were explicitly upfront about our strict budget for our trip to Rome and beyond, worrying a custom designer would simply be out of reach for us. Instead, Sally showed us how to maximize every dollar. She selected high-character, family-run guesthouses over pricey chains and suggested incredible free or low-cost local experiences, such as a self-guided hike between medieval Umbrian villages. Sally proved you can have a luxury-feeling, highly personalized vacation without breaking the bank. Communication was transparent from day one. We loved working with Sally and will use her again and again.

We knew from the moment we first spoke to Sally over the phone that she was the one for us. If you want a standard, checklist tour, look elsewhere. But if you want a trip meticulously engineered around your personal passions, Sally is the one. Her deep knowledge of Sicilian Baroque architecture meant our days in Noto and Ortigia were spent uncovering hidden chapels and meeting local preservationists. The hotel choices were architectural masterpieces themselves. Not all travel planners are created equally, but Sally is superb at what she does and her passion shines through every step of the way.

I cannot recommend Sally enough. We wanted a romantic, slow-paced honeymoon in the south of Italy, completely customized to our love of food and wine. Sally put us in a restored masseria outside Ostuni that took our breath away. The curated outings, like a private olive oil tasting at a 500-year-old estate and a boat cave tour in Polignano a Mare, were unforgettable. Sally completely understood our vibe and we cannot imagine this trip without her expertise. A+.

I really enjoyed the fact the Sally called and let me talk about my vision for my trip. She asks all the right questions and I loved that she has real life experience in Bali, and as a solo female traveler as well. I told her I wanted to see the real Bali. She sent me to Sidemen Valley instead of the usual crowded tourist hotspots. It was a breathtaking, deeply immersive week of cycling through emerald rice terraces and dining in open-air bamboo kitchens. Pure magic. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Planning a trip for young adults who would rather sleep in than look at temples is an art form. Sally nailed it. She structured our days in Thailand so the kids had active mornings, like a brilliant downhill mountain biking excursion in Chiang Mai, and left afternoons open for them to explore independently. The accommodations were trendy, design-forward boutique hotels that the kids loved posting about on social media. Sally is a true pro at listening to individual family dynamics and I would highly recommend her to everyone.

Sally really is the best. Incredible attention to detail! She organized a private night-market street food crawl in Taipei with a culinary student that was out of this world, followed by a stunning eco-lodge stay near Taroko. Total destination excellence! Do not hesitate to reach out to her.

We just got back from a fast-paced week in Hong Kong followed by a slow retreat in Ubud, and the contrast was managed to perfection. Sally's destination expertise shone through in the pacing. Going from the neon chaos of Central HK to a cliffside villa in Bali could have felt jarring, but Sally made the transition days so stress-free. Also, we must mention, the app is incredible in every way. It updated our flight gate change even before the airport boards did!

I’m a bit of a control freak, so handing over my solo Japan trip to a designer was tough. But wow. Sally built an itinerary that felt entirely organic. No pre-packaged tour vibes; every single day was calibrated to my obsession with regional architecture and artisan textiles. The real game-changer was the mobile app. Having my train tickets, walking maps, and hyper-specific dining recommendations pinned to my exact GPS location made navigating Kyoto’s backstreets so simple. The absolute highlight was a hidden gem stay at a ryokan in Kinosaki Onsen that I never would have found on Google. The flow of the trip was meditative, since hectic city days balanced perfectly with quiet rural immersion. Masterful.

Sally is so much more than a travel agent - she is a true trip experience designer! She doesn't just book flights and hotels; she takes the time to understand what you want, listens to her clients, and researches like crazy to create a trip that feels completely personal. Sally finds the hidden gems, the little ins and outs, and the experiences that make each day special. No matter your age or interests, she somehow finds the most fun, memorable things to do. You can tell that she genuinely loves what she does, and she brings that passion to every detail with so much class, patience, and care. She has traveled the world so her personal knowledge and incredible energy out of the gate with planning comes with such depth of knowledge. With Sally, you're not just taking a trip - you're creating memories. She goes above and beyond to make the entire experience extraordinary, and we couldn't recommend her more highly!!!!

Everyone on my feed is booking Puglia and Sicily right now, so we were a bit worried they'd feel too crowded. Working with Sally avoided that concern completely. She hand-designs everything from scratch, avoiding the tour bus bottlenecks to show us the authentic side of the south. Every detail imaginable was included in our itinerary that lives in a handy dandy mobile app. Loved it! She rented us a quintessential Fiat 500 which is honestly about all that will fit in some of those Sicilian villages. Everything from Matera in Puglia to Ortigia in Sicily and beyond. When the airline lost our luggage in Catania, thank God Sally had talked us into Allianz travel insurance. They covered all the things we had to buy to get us through until we were reunited with our suitcases. She handled the drama professionally so we didn't miss a beat. Thanks for everything, Sally! You're the best!

This was my second time in Italy, but I wanted to skip the museums and focus entirely on the dramatic coastlines down south around the Salento peninsula. Sally knew exactly where to send me. Instead of putting me in a generic beach resort with no character, she found a gorgeous, restored townhouse right in the historic center of Lecce, giving me a perfect base for day trips. Hands down the freshest raw seafood I’ve ever had. Train strike hit Puglia, and the first call I made was to Sally. She arranged an extension with the hotel, and got my flights sorted out as well, so it actually turned into bonus time in Puglia. Yay me. Sally's the best.

We wanted a trip to Bali that avoided the massive tourist traps and focused heavily on nature, local culture, and real downtime. Sally delivered exactly that. Her passion for design shines through even in the accommodations alone. Staying at that small, bamboo eco-lodge tucked into the jungle canopy near Sidemen felt like waking up inside a postcard. Completely cut off from the noise of the world. She put together the most incredible afternoon for us: a private hike through the emerald rice terraces guided by a local farmer from the village, ending with a traditional water purification blessing at a lesser-known temple. It wasn’t flashy or manufactured, but it felt real. She managed our budget like a pro while prioritizing the exact experiences we cared about. Sally's responsiveness was stellar, and having our daily flow mapped out on the app meant we never had to worry about logistics. Sally is phenomenal!

I was skeptical about using a travel designer for a city like Singapore because I figured I could just book a hotel and wing it. I was completely wrong. Sally's expertise turned what could have been a standard city vacation into something extraordinary. She didn't just book us a flight and a room; she got us into the Warehouse Hotel on the Singapore River which is industrial, sleek, and exactly the kind of cool design vibe my teenagers loved. Our night-cycling tour through the Marina Bay area, riding past the lit-up Supertrees was beyond memorable. Sally created just the right balance of activity we were looking for. Nothing short of extraordinary!

We have traveled extensively, and it is rare to find a planner who genuinely understands the art of slow travel. I guess that is the difference between planning a trip and designing a trip. Sally understands Puglia like no other agent we talked to. She took to heart everything we said on our questionnaire and didn't overcrowd our days which allowed us to truly absorb the beauty of Puglia. The boutique masseria she selected near Ostuni was absolute perfection in understated luxury. That e-bike tour through the ancient olive groves was one for the books. It was clear this wasn't a template itinerary. Her personal touch and deep expertise were evident in every detail. Grazie mille, Sally! We will be back for more!

Planning a trip for a family with two kids in their twenties can be tricky when they want adventure and nightlife and we want culture and relaxation, but Sally literally nailed it for our trip to Greece. The choice to stay at a cliffside boutique hotel in Milos rather than the overcrowded spots in Santorini was brilliant. The private catamaran sunset cruise around the hidden coves of Kleftiko was easily our favorite day of the summer. Swimming through sea caves and having a fresh seafood lunch right on the boat. Hard to believe it was even real! Her professionalism made the whole process effortless, and the app was perfect for the kids to check the next activity and where we were eating next. She managed to match all of our conflicting interests while keeping us completely on budget. I would most definitely recommend Sally to anyone who wants the very best.

I am incredibly picky about food and architecture, and I usually hate hiring travel planners because the itineraries feel so sterile. But Sally's absolute passion for genuine travel design shines through in everything she does. She created a solo journey through Taiwan that was exactly what I didn't know I needed. The highlight was definitely the night food market crawl in Taipei with a local culinary guide she hired, followed by a stunning tea ceremony in the hills of Jiufen. The pace of the trip was just what I asked for, relaxed yet fulfilling, and it was obvious she knows the country inside out. A+!

Traveling with an 8 and 12-year-old can go sideways fast, but Sally assured us that she would build a trip that kept everyone happy, active, and sane. I loved that she personally designed the days rather than just handing us over to a some random tour company. The activities she picked were absolute home runs! The kids will never forget the morning spent at the ethical elephant sanctuary near Chiang Mai, where we got to help prepare their food and walk with them to the river. Sally's expert-level planning really showed in the accommodation choices as well. The family villa in Koh Samui gave the kids space to play while giving my husband and me some quiet time in luxury. The questionnaire she asked us to fill out helped her to perfectly match our interests, priorities, and budget. Sally's deep knowledge and love of Thailand made this a vacation we will forever remember with total joy.

We just got back from our honeymoon in Puglia, and honestly, we’re still floating. When we first started looking online, everything felt so cookie-cutter and touristy. We are so glad we trusted Sally to design this from scratch. She picked up on our exact style immediately, romance but also great food and zero stress. Staying at the Masseria Torre Coccaro was an absolute dream; that historic olive estate felt like a private sanctuary. She arranged a private cooking class for us in a tiny village where an elderly nonna taught us how to roll orecchiette pasta by hand in her own kitchen. It was the most authentic, special afternoon. The professionalism she showed from our first phone call to the final night was amazing, and the way the entire trip flowed from the coast to the countryside was perfect. We loved using the app to check our daily plans and recommendations. Thank you for making our honeymoon so uniquely ours!

Finding a travel designer who actually listens instead of just pasting a generic itinerary into a PDF is rare. I wanted a solo trip to Japan that balanced the high-energy tech side of Tokyo with the quiet, traditional side of Kyoto. Sally completely nailed my vibe and budget. The boutique hotel she found in Kyoto, right on a quiet canal in Gion, was incredible. But the highlight was definitely the private knife-forging workshop she booked for me with a master blacksmith in Tokyo. I learned how to hammer high-carbon steel and brought home a custom chef’s knife. The flow of the trip was spot on, and her app kept my train tickets and daily notes right at my fingertips. You can tell Sally has spent serious time on the ground there. Outstanding work.

We contracted with Sally to design our honeymoon so that we could focus on all things wedding. Planning a wedding is stressful enough, but Sally took the entire travel burden off our shoulders. From our first call, she listened to exactly what we wanted and handled our flights, transfers, accommodation, and activities. Bora Bora is one of those places that looks even better in real life than it does in pictures. Sally convinced us that the overwater bungalow is a non-negotiable experience, especially for newlyweds, and she was so right! It was worth every dime. It was incredibly roomy, private, and absolutely dreamy to look out at that vibrant blue water every day. We loved the glass floor cutout where we could watch the tropical fish swimming under us every morning. She arranged a private sunset cruise and timed it beautifully so we caught the absolute best views. She coordinated with the resort staff, who decorated our room with fresh flowers for our arrival. It was unreal. Sally treated this trip like it mattered as much to her as it did to us, and it showed in every single detail. We are so lucky we found her and will absolutely use her for all our future trips!

Traveling with three teenagers to Costa Rica had me a bit anxious, but Sally customized this trip around what they actually wanted to do, instead sending over a generic family tour package. Our home base was a literal dream house in La Fortuna. Sally had us zip lining, blowing kisses to the sloths at the sanctuary, taking private surf lessons, and hiking near the volcano. Her packing list was invaluable and my husband and I really enjoyed the mobile app. First truly successful family vacation and it won't be our last with Sally's help. I highly recommend Sally's travel design services.

We finally agreed to take a trip together and decided to outsource the work to a professional. Sally seemed to be just what we were looking for. She had so many fun ideas for our trip and understands that women want to feel safe while traveling. Three days in Rome included so many key historical sights that you must see at least once in your life, a food tour through Testaccio that introduced us to a cheese shop owner who let us taste just about everything, and even an opera performance in a stunning art gallery! Made our way down to Puglia for a stay in a real trullo that was like stepping into another century, stone walls and all. The private cooking class Sally arranged in Ostuni was in an actual family's kitchen, and the nonna taught us how to make orecchiette by hand while telling stories about growing up in the region. Priceless! Sally clearly has a genuine love for this part of Italy, and it comes through in how she talked about it on our calls. After using two other agents for previous trips who just sent us hotel links, this was a completely different level of service.

Planning our own trip that included grandparents, parents, and teenagers all at once felt completely impossible until we talked to Sally. So friendly and professional. She immediately gave off the impression that she could handle anything. She found primo accommodations in Santorini that were stunning but also miraculously worked with my mother in law's mobility needs, with fewer stairs than most cliffside places. The day on the private boat to Naxos was brilliant! Kept the teenagers entertained, was comfortable for the older folks, and the captain packed a home cooked Greek meal for lunch. What a treat! She checked in by text to see how things were actually going, and when my dad wasn't up for a late dinner one night, she moved the reservation to an earlier time slot without us having to ask twice. The mobile app was so helpful to keep everyone on track with the details and schedule. We were all so impressed and it's why we're already talking to her about next year's family outing. So happy with our decision to work with Sally!

Four of us girls decided to go to Korea, purely to eat and immerse in skin care, and Sally delivered in every way. Olive Young until we were maxed out. Classes where we got to make our own lipstick and skin care. Countless cafes in Seongsu-dong, so many coffees. A very memorable late night tteokbokki spot near our hotel after a night of drinking Soju. We had such a good time! Already asked her to design our next trip. Thank you, Sally!

I was nervous about doing Japan alone but finding Sally was the best thing that could have happened to me. She set me up in a small ryokan in Hakone where the owner barely spoke English yet I still felt completely taken care of. On our very first call she asked so many questions about my actual pace, whether I wanted a packed day or room to wander, that I remember thinking she was more thorough than anyone else I'd talked to about this. The private tea ceremony she arranged came with an instructor who explained the meaning behind every movement, and I'll never forget those two hours. Cherry blossom timing was near perfect, which is partly luck, but she clearly designed the schedule around the bloom forecast rather than a generic date range. She also sent me a short cheat sheet before I left covering train etiquette and shrine manners that saved me from a few potentially awkward moments. That kind of attention to detail is rare. I would recommend Sally to anyone.

I ended up with an 8+ hour layover in Kuala Lumpur in my flight itinerary and reached out to several agents including Sally to see if there was anything I could do instead of spending the whole day inside the airport. The other 2 agents didn't even respond but Sally dove in and created a full day itinerary for me without any problem at all. Private tour to the magnificent Batu Caves in the morning with Satesh and then on to a street food alley near Jalan Alor for lunch. Even made it back to the airport with time to spare for a little shopping. Small trip but utterly fabulous and it showed she cares about the little stuff too. Would highly recommend her services.

We told Sally we wanted romantic but not stuffy and I still don't know how she read our minds. Two nights at an exquisite villa in Palermo. A private driver who drove us down the coast to Taormina and stopped at some random lookout point that blew our minds. The Etna wine tasting at a small family vineyard was a real highlight of the trip. My husband still brings up the pistachio gelato place she texted us about. Sally is the real deal.

I wanted to take this trip solo after a pretty hectic start to the year and needed some time to unplug. I tend to over-research everything to the point of feeling overwhelmed, so it was nice having someone narrow things down and create the kind of trip I was imagining for myself. Renting a scooter on Hvar, riding around and spending hours stopping at random beaches was so cool. Enjoying a beer at a small roadside cafe. I won't ever forget it. Would absolutely use Sally again.

After years of hectic family vacations, my husband and I wanted something quieter and more nature-focused. Sally's suggestion to go straight to the Azores turned out to be exactly what we needed. She introduced us to a destination we honestly knew very little about. The scenery was breathtaking, but what stood out most was how peaceful everything felt. We spent our days hiking, exploring volcanic landscapes, whale watching, and enjoying long dinners overlooking the water. The entire trip was so incredibly refreshing and we owe it all to Sally's expertise!

There were four of us celebrating a milestone birthday, and every single person came home happy, which honestly deserves an award. We loved her advice to spend time outside of Dublin - the mix of charming towns, dramatic scenery, cozy pubs, and unique experiences. Sally absolutely nailed it! The hotel choices were so great, and she somehow managed to keep us organized without making the itinerary feel rigid. I've already recommended her to two friends and would not hesitate to work with her again.

We recently spent two weeks in Sicily, and the trip exceeded every expectation. Sally's recommendations felt personal rather than generic. We explored small coastal towns, visited wineries, spent mornings wandering local markets, and enjoyed some of the best meals we've ever had. There were plenty of highlights, but some of our favorite memories came from places we probably never would have discovered ourselves. We loved the balance between sightseeing and simply experiencing the destination. It felt less like a vacation and more like living there for a little while. – Karen & Mike

Traveling with three kids is not exactly relaxing, but somehow Sally pulled it off. She found family-friendly hotels, suggested activities that kept both our teenagers and our 8-year-old interested, and built in enough free time that nobody got cranky. That's a small miracle. We visited Athens, Naxos, and Santorini. Every transfer worked exactly as expected, and I never once found myself standing in a hotel lobby wondering what came next. My wife and I actually got to enjoy the trip instead of managing logistics all day. That alone was worth every penny.

I usually plan my own trips, so handing that over to someone else was a big leap for me. Best decision I made. Vietnam had been on my list for years, but I didn't know how to connect all the pieces. Sally built an itinerary that gave me a mix of city life, culture, food, and downtime. From Hanoi to Hoi An to Ho Chi Minh City, everything flowed naturally. There were so many moments I would have completely missed on my own. The street food recommendations alone were worth it. I felt confident traveling solo while still having enough flexibility to make the trip my own. I'll definitely work with her again.

My husband and I just got back from Portugal and I'm already looking at flights to go back. Sally planned everything from our hotels to restaurant recommendations, and every stop felt like it belonged in a postcard. We split our time between Lisbon, Porto, and the Douro Valley, and somehow every day felt different from the last. What I appreciated most was that she listened. I told her we wanted beautiful places but didn't want to spend our entire vacation rushing around checking boxes. The pace was perfect. We had time to wander, sit in little cafés, and actually enjoy where we were. This was our anniversary trip, and Sally made it feel special without making it feel over-the-top. We came home with incredible memories and none of the usual travel stress.

If you are looking for the perfect travel agent, look no further than Sally. We used her to plan a trip to Japan as a college graduation gift for my daughter, and it was absolute perfection. She handled every single detail for us. Booked our business-class flights, reserved our exquisite ryokans, and set us up with the awesome private tours. She took the time to listen to what we were looking for and created an itinerary packed with exciting destinations and fun activities that my daughter absolutely loved. A huge highlight of the trip was our time at Tokyo Disney Sea, which Sally assured us we would love. I cannot recommend Sally highly enough!

This girls’ trip to Italy was absolutely fabulous thanks to Sally’s mastery of planning. She booked private tours that let us explore at our own pace, reserved spectacular luxury hotels in perfect locations, and even got us reservations at Michelin-star restaurants that were sold out. Her shopping recommendations were spot-on, from iconic designers to hidden local boutiques. Every detail felt tailored to our group. Sally delivered an exceptional Italian experience we’ll be talking about for years.

Sally is nothing short of extraordinary. I worked with her to plan a surprise trip to Thailand with the goal of proposing to my girlfriend, and she absolutely nailed every detail. From the very beginning, Sally handled everything with precision, creativity, and discretion to ensure the surprise stayed intact. She arranged all the bells and whistles. Breathtaking hotels, private experiences, flawless transportation, and unforgettable dining that was straight out of a dream. The trip was perfectly orchestrated because Sally really thought of everything. All I had to do was show up, propose and enjoy the moment. Thanks to her skills and professionalism, the trip was not only romantic, but truly once-in-a-lifetime. If you’re planning something meaningful and want it done right, Sally is the master travel agent you want in your corner.

Sally is an exceptional concierge travel agent, and I cannot recommend her enough. She planned the most incredible 15-year anniversary trip to Greece, and every detail was absolutely flawless. From incredible private tours to exquisite hotels and fantastic restaurant recommendations, Sally put together an experience that was luxurious, stress-free and unforgettable. It was clear that she listened to what we wanted and designed the trip based on our preferences and interests. This trip would not have been the same without her expertise. If you want a perfectly planned getaway, Sally is the one.

It’s hard for me to put into words exactly how perfect our trip was. Not only is Sally a true professional, but she went way above and beyond in planning our trip. She has fantastic travel common sense - she knew exactly the best way for our trip to flow from one location to the next. She has amazing contacts at the hotels we stayed at - each property more awesome than the last! The contacts enabled us to plan for excursions with highly trained drivers and tour guides without any language barrier. And she had great recommendations on which excursions to take. None of our requests were ignored or too much for her. She made sure we were comfortable with our choices and she simply made it all happen. I could go on and on about her attention to detail and all of her attributes that make her the perfect travel advisor - but I will cut it short and leave saying this - I believe Sally could plan any trip for anybody anywhere in this big beautiful world and it would end up being the best trip you’ve ever taken.

I had such a fantastic experience working with Sally for my trip to Japan. Everything was expertly organized, which made the entire trip so easy for me. The tours and guides she arranged were excellent and really added depth to the experience. My hotel in Kyoto was a standout. It was beautifully designed, very comfortable, and located in a quiet area that was still close to temples, shops, and great restaurants. It felt like the perfect place to relax after a full day of exploring. Visiting Tokyo DisneySea was definitely a highlight and such a unique experience. I had such a great time! I so appreciated Sally’s attention to detail and would highly recommend her to anyone planning a trip to Japan!

Sally put together an amazing trip for me! So customized from start to finish, every detail, day tours, upgraded accommodations, Michelin star restaurants to street food! She also planned free time for swims in the beautiful pools and SPA time for relaxing massages! I can’t say enough about Sally and my experience with her to make an unforgettable trip to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur! Looking forward to have her plan another trip! Thank you Sally

My wife and I wanted our trip to Norway to feel special without feeling like we were running a marathon. Sally's itinerary nailed that balance. We found great culture in Oslo, but Bergen was so charming while being minimally touristy, and the fjord cruise was hands down one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Everything flowed so well - the hotels, transportation, activities, all of it. We never felt stressed because we had every detail we needed right there in the itinerary. There were days built for sightseeing and days clearly designed to just breathe and enjoy the scenery. We felt Sally truly tailored our trip to us. I’m usually the skeptical one when it comes to things like planners, but I was genuinely impressed with her work.

Our trip to Puglia was unforgettable, thanks to Sally. We really appreciated the time she spent with us during the planning stages. We were confident we had chosen the right person to plan our trip based on her enthusiasm and knowledge of the area. The family-owned accommodations she chose were so charming, a warmth you don’t find in big hotels. The restaurant recommendations were other level, each day we couldn't wait to see what dinner would be like that evening. Our day trip to Alberobello was so special, wandering among the trulli and admiring those unique structures. Spending a night in Matera felt like some kind of medieval fairytale. Not only does Sally really know this region inside and out but planned our trip with our particular travel style and preferences in mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better planner or Italian escape.

Sally is fantastic! This Italy trip felt completely tailored to us. Bologna was perfect for wandering, eating far too well, and exploring all the side streets. Our visit to the Teatro Anatomico was sensational! The hotel could not have been better in character and location. She stayed within our budget and we were so happy we didn't go with our original plan of getting an Airbnb. Sally talked to us about her visit to Bologna and her recommendations consistently hit the mark. It was very obvious she knows these destinations beyond the surface. Her planning is expert level and was very thorough from start to finish. We left with full stomachs and hearts thanks to Sally.

Our honeymoon to Japan and Thailand was absolute perfection. Quiet mornings wandering Kyoto, the best food of our lives, an overnight stay in a tea village, and then ending the trip on a beach in Thailand! Our hotels were spectacular and we loved our planned adventures (except for the monkey incident!). We were so thankful for all the details in the itinerary as we navigated numerous trains and planes. Sally really took the time to understand what mattered to us and translated that into a dream come true.

I contacted Sally about planning a solo trip to Taiwan and ended up loving every minute of it. Taipei was vibrant and fun, especially those wild night markets, but what really surprised me was getting outside the city and spending time in Yilan. That part of the trip felt very intentional and not something you see on typical itineraries. Sally’s planning was extremely knowledgable and thorough and gave me a lot of confidence going in. This was a smartly designed trip. I wholeheartedly recommend Sally's expertise.

Portugal suited us perfectly and Sally deserves a lot of credit for that. Lisbon and Porto were so lively and full of charm, but the way the days were laid out gave us time to wander, sit with a coffee, and actually absorb where we were. We will never forget our night of Fado in Porto. The accommodations were lovely and we really received the royal treatment. Sally definitely understands how different people like to travel and designs accordingly.

This was a friends getaway and Thailand delivered on every level. Bangkok was off the hook energy and so much fun, but we also had a great time outside the city visiting temples and smaller towns. Everything had a purpose and nothing felt random. Sally clearly put a lot of thought into how the trip would flow for a group, from where we stayed to how our days were structured, and some great private guides. I'd definitely recommend Sally as your future Travel Planner.

This girls trip to Italy was exactly what we wanted and somehow even better than we imagined. Sally took copious notes in our planning phone calls and seemed to know just what to do. Our apartment in Florence felt like home right away, so perfect! We walked everywhere, lingered in cafes, and never felt like we were racing the clock. Tuscany was a total change of scenery and waking up to vineyard views from our balcony was unforgettable. Sally has an incredible eye for accommodations and really knows how to create a trip that feels personal.

What stood out about our Japan trip was how well everything fit together. Tokyo, Hakone, and Kyoto all had a distinct feel, yet the journey between them felt effortless. Our onsen stay near Mount Fuji was such a surprise highlight of the trip. Sally’s planning was extremely detailed and it was obvious she used her firsthand knowledge of the places we visited to create a very personalized trip for us. This was not a copycat Japan itinerary and we loved our vacation!

Greece was one of those trips that sets the bar very high for everything that comes after it. From Athens to Santorini, every detail felt intentional and well considered. The hotels were not only luxurious but they had character and were centrally located, much appreciated. One evening we wandered the narrow streets of Oia and ended the day sipping drinks and watching the sunset from a hidden terrace. It was clear Sally knew the country well and had put a lot of care into every detail. We trusted her completely and it paid off!

Sally planned our Vietnam trip and it was honestly incredible. Hanoi and Hoi An were standouts for us and the way the trip moved between cities just made sense. We loved wandering Hanoi's Old Quarter, the boat ride along the river in Hoi An, and having experiences that felt very local without feeling staged, like the vegetable village. Sally was great throughout the planning process and always quick to answer questions. Everything just worked. I would absolutely plan another trip with her.

Sally created an itinerary for our family of four (including 2 adult children) to Ireland last summer. I don't know what I was expecting, but Ireland was incredible. Not only the natural rugged scenery, but the people! So charming and down to earth. I didn't envision that we would be spending so much time chatting and drinking with locals at the pubs. Sally tried to convince me that I would love the people and now I see why. Belfast was surprisingly engaging with the murals tour Sally booked us. In Killarney, she has us on a bike tour to Torc Waterfall, a hidden gem we wouldn’t have found on our own. Sally was very mindful about her hotel choices, wanting us to have the best experience while respecting our budget. The Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin! We didn't ever want to leave. We enjoyed ourselves so much, so much laughter, and now we have all the memories to carry with us. Thank you Sally for making it so memorable.

Searched for Thailand travel specialists and got connected to Sally through Travel Leaders. Sally really helped to organized all my thoughts and ideas of the kinds of things I wanted to see and do while in Bangkok. The city felt alive, but not too overwhelming, thanks to Sally's hotel suggestion. I am really glad I agreed to the private guides, as they helped so much in my search for off the beaten path gems, as well as navigating the transport and language barrier. I loved the small street markets and coffee shops where the locals hung out. Spent so much time at the temples, and I even took a cooking class at a family-run restaurant. So cool. Everything was logical and smooth, from transportation to guides and tours. I really did feel immersed. Highly recommend Sally to anyone wanting a truly curated experience.

My wife and I decided we wanted to plan a trip to Italy for our 15th wedding anniversary. After much research and consideration, we signed on with Sally based on her professionalism and intimate knowledge of the area. She actually made Rome feel manageable, not chaotic, which to be honest I was nervous about. Sally guided us to the quieter parts of Trastevere for meals and late-night gelato. The early morning Vatican visit was such a good call and felt smooth because our tour took place before the hordes of tourists showed up. We even got to wander the Pantheon with very few tourists around because we took Sally's advice and went late in the day. The hotel she arranged was so perfect for walking everywhere. Just steps from the Trevi Fountain. The meals, private golf cart tour, and her detailed self-guided walking tour. Every day was two thumbs up thanks to Sally. This trip was everything we hoped for and more.

We fell in love with Sally's energy and passion for travel and knew right from the start that she was who we wanted to work with on our trip to Japan. Sally suggested we start in Hiroshima with a guided tour of the Peace Park early in the morning to avoid the (massive) crowds. In Kanazawa, she picked a ryokan near the 21st Century Museum and sent us to a tiny teahouse where the owner taught us how to make matcha. Loved it! The balance between historic reflection, cultural immersion, and practical logistics was perfect. Hotels, trains, timing were all flawless. She also managed our budget beautifully. If you want a thoughtful, immersive trip without worrying about a single detail, Sally is the one.

Sally’s planning made this solo trip so easy and surprisingly immersive. Naxos had quiet beaches and a family-run taverna she recommended where I spent an entire evening talking to the locals and drinking far too much Raki . In Paros, I stumbled on a tiny pottery workshop she flagged, which was one of my favorite experiences. Athens was somewhat gritty in parts, but the history blew my mind, and I loved strolling the Plaka neigborhood. Truly fantastic trip, and I would book with Sally again in a heartbeat.

This was a family trip to Portugal with a visit to the Azores as well. Lisbon was so full of energy yet easy to navigate thanks to Sally. She really hooked us up at Corpo Santo Hotel where she is rather well known by the staff due to her frequent visits and all the clients she sends there. Those breakfasts were something else! Our afternoon at LX Factory was so fun! Sao Miguel just is stunning, we hiked around Lagoa do Fogo and soaked in the hot springs at Caldeira Velha, something we never would have found alone. Everything felt effortless, well-paced, and within our budget. Sally made it fun and worry-free for the whole family. Can’t recommend her enough!

Taiwan completely surprised us, and honestly, we have Sally to thank for that. From our first phone call, her enthusiasm and insight into Taiwan totally sold us on her. In Taipei, she nudged us toward Yongkang Street for food and a tiny traditional noodle shop we still talk about. In Tainan, we explored Anping’s quieter lanes and learned so much about the city’s history. Sun Moon Lake was the absolute highlight, especially the early morning bike ride Sally suggested before the crowds arrived. The flow of the trip felt intentional, almost like a story unfolding. It felt curated, not rigid, and we left feeling like we truly experienced the country. XieXie, Sally!

This solo trip to Krakow was deeply meaningful for me, and Sally handled it with just the level of care it deserved. Beyond the major historical sites, she encouraged me to spend time in Kazimierz, walking its quieter streets and visiting smaller synagogues that added important context. She also suggested a reflective walk along the Vistula River afterward, which helped me process everything. Nothing felt sensationalized or rushed. Sally made sure there were moments of lightness like little local pierogi spots and a small cafe near Planty Park. This wasn’t an easy trip, but it was an important one, and I’m grateful for how thoughtfully Sally put it all together.

We were referred to Sally by some friends who had used her services previously, to help plan our girls trip to Aruba. This was exactly the kind of trip we needed, sunny, easy, and stress free, and Sally absolutely nailed it. Instead of keeping us only near the main hotel strip, she suggested a day at Baby Beach and a sunset dinner near Savaneta that felt local and relaxed. We snorkeled at Boca Catalina early in the morning before it got busy, which felt like our own private paradise. The balance of beach days, adventure, and exploring was perfect. Sally clearly understood that we wanted to unwind without feeling bored or stuck at a resort. I speak for all of us when I say that we came home rested instead of exhausted. Cheers to you, Sally.

Vietnam was everything we hoped for and more, and Sally deserves so much credit for that. In Hanoi, she steered us toward a family run bun cha spot tucked down a side alley that we never would have found on our own. In Sapa, we stayed near Ta Van village and woke up to misty rice terraces instead of crowds. Ha Long Bay felt peaceful thanks to a private cruise Sally recommended that avoided the crowded "party boats". What impressed us most was the cultural sensitivity Sally built into the itinerary. Nothing felt rushed or exploitative. We felt immersed without feeling like tourists being shuffled around, which made the entire experience incredibly meaningful. A huge thank you to Sally!

South Korea had been on my list forever, but I was intimidated by the language barrier and the sheer size of Seoul. Sally completely changed that for me. Sharing so many of her own personal experiences in South Korea, I felt so inspired to make my own South Korea memories. Beyond the major sights, Sally pointed me toward quiet neighborhoods like Ikseon dong and a tiny teahouse near Changdeokgung where I spent an entire afternoon journaling. In Busan, she suggested a coastal walk near Igidae instead of the crowded spots, which ended up being one of my favorite moments. The DMZ tour was incredibly powerful and respectfully handled. I never once felt lost or unsafe, even as a solo woman. This trip pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best possible way. I highly recommend Sally as a Travel Planner!

Traveling internationally with kids is not for the faint of heart, but Sally made this trip shockingly smooth. Perth was a perfect introduction, laid back, easy to navigate, and family friendly, while Sydney gave us the excitement and culture we wanted without overwhelming us. The itinerary balanced activities for the kids with things my wife and I actually enjoyed: wildlife parks, gorgeous beaches, scenic walks along the Sydney Harbour, but also enjoying a day at the giant Kings Park in Perth, some family-friendly wineries, and really nice food choices that kept everyone happy. Everything was clearly explained, from airport transfers to day trips, which made us feel confident even when jet lag hit hard. It felt like someone who truly understands travel (including the specific needs of family travel) designed this itinerary, not just spitting out a generic Australia plan. Our kids will forever talk about our day at Rottnest Island with the quokkas. Thank you, Sally!

This trip was pure magic! Four of us wanted sun, water, good food, and minimal logistical headaches, and that’s exactly what we got. Island hopping in Croatia can be confusing, but Sally made it feel effortless. Ferries lined up perfectly, accommodations were gorgeous without being over the top expensive, and every island had its own cool vibe. Some days were beachy and lazy, others were lively and social. She even flagged which islands were better for nightlife versus relaxing, which saved us from a few bad calls. We kept saying, “Who planned this?” the entire trip. If you’re doing a girls trip and want it to feel elevated but still fun and carefree, choosing Sally is the way to go.

I booked my first ever solo trip through Sally, and honestly, I don’t think I’ll ever plan travel on my own again. Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Malmö felt completely manageable and safe, which mattered a lot to me as a solo female traveler. She anticipated questions I didn’t even know I should be asking, transport passes, neighborhoods to avoid late at night, which museums were actually worth the time. I loved that my itinerary had structure but still left room for wandering cafes and bookshops. It never felt rushed or overwhelming. I especially appreciated the little notes she added about local customs and food recommendations. It made me feel prepared but still adventurous. This trip gave me so much confidence, that I came home already thinking about where I want to go next!

We are a 70+ couple and had been reading so much about Estonia, that we finally decided to look into it. Sally was so thoughtful and patient as we worked through all the options for traveling in this part of the world, keeping in mind that we are not young people. She looked after every detail, including securing a wheelchair for my wife at the airports. The hotels were all very accessible and accommodating to our mobility issues. Everyone was so kind and we loved all of our tours. We were absolutely thrilled with our visit to Tallinn and we owe it all to Sally. Thank you!

I really wanted to attend a yoga retreat in Czechia with my best friend, but we were super hesitant to pull the trigger, as we have never traveled internationally before. We contacted Sally and she really put us at ease with her detailed planning and tips on first-time international travel. We so appreciated all her help and guidance and the trip turned out to be such an incredible experience! Thank you for everything from the flights to the hotels to the tours, Sally! We couldn't have done it without you!

Reached out to Sally in hopes she could help plan a girls' trip to Thailand, and did she ever deliver! Sally put together a really cool itinerary with a nice balance of a little bit of everything Thailand has to offer, including tours and a day with the elephants! The 4 of us had such a terrific time, we can't wait to work with Sally for our next annual girls' trip! Thanks, Sally! You're the best!

Single girl here looking for someone experienced in solo female travel for my trip to Greece. I found Sally and she knew exactly what she was doing as she planned my trip to Athens and a few of the Greek islands. I'm so glad I found her. I was really nervous about my first solo trip abroad, but she reassured me that it would be ok, and it turned out better than ok! Thank you thank you thank you, Sally!

I chose Sally to help me plan a trip to Switzerland with my mom. She was so great to work with and thought of everything! The hotels were so perfect and we absolutely loved our train rides through the Swiss countryside. The scenery is just heavenly! It took so much stress off of me to know that our vacation was in the capable hands of Sally. I would highly recommend using Sally as your travel agent!

Sally was instrumental in the planning of a weekend getaway to Santa Fe, NM for my partner and me. The art, culture, and food scene is beyond sensational! We were two very happy campers! Thank you for everything, Sally!

I saw other positive reviews of Sally's experience in booking female travel, so I contacted her to talk about ideas for me and my friend. Sally had a ton of great options for us and we decided to book a trip to the Puglia region of Italy. I didn't know much about this area before talking to Sally, but I am so glad we took her advice to visit this amazing region of Southern Italy. The villages, history, and cuisine blew our minds. Sally's suggestions for tours could not have been better! We will let all our friends know what a great travel agent Sally is!

I was looking for a safe and beautiful tropical getaway for myself and I read that Sally specializes in female travel so I sent an inquiry to her through the website. I am so happy I connected with Sally as my travel agent! She suggested several destinations and I decided to go with Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands. This place is paradise! I was even able to work remotely from my beachfront condo. Just awesome! I felt totally safe and was so happy with the help Sally provided. I would definitely recommend working with her if you are a solo female looking for a safe place to enjoy!

I wanted to surprise my girlfriend with a trip to Hawaii for her birthday, so I reached out to Sally to see if she could help me plan a romantic birthday vacation for two. After looking over several options, I chose Kona, Hawaii. Sally helped me choose a beachfront resort that was perfect for the budget I wanted as well as the amenities offered. My choice of travel agents could not have been better. Thank you, Sally for helping me create an unforgettable birthday experience!

I was nominated by my family to find a travel agent to help us book our group vacation on a cruise. This was for 17 people, including children, and we knew we wanted to go in the July/August timeframe. Sally presented us with several fantastic options and we chose the Mediterranean cruise, including a day in Santorini, our favorite stop! Sally advised us to spend a few days in Barcelona before our cruise began and we were so happy we listened to her! We loved every minute of our vacation. All details were handled professionally and I would not hesitate to recommend Sally as an excellent choice of a travel agent to work with again in the future!
