About Me

Founder + Luxury Travel Advisor

I’m the founder of The Journey Group Travel, a boutique luxury travel agency built on more than 26 years of experience designing thoughtful, high-touch journeys around the world. Together with my team of experienced advisors, we work with individuals, families, and organizations who expect more than standard travel, crafting seamless, well-executed experiences that balance detail, access, and authenticity. From honeymoons and milestone celebrations to multi-generational trips and large-scale corporate retreats, we manage every moving part with care, discretion, and precision so our clients can simply enjoy the experience. Our approach is rooted in long-standing relationships with trusted global partners and in-country experts, allowing us to offer insider access and dependable support before, during, and after every trip. I lead a team that shares my commitment to exceptional service, ensuring every journey is intentional, personalized, and effortlessly executed.

My Travel Planning Philosophy:

Planning travel should be a collaborative effort where we work together to arrive at a final itinerary that exceeds your expectations. We only recommend hotels that we've personally visited. We answer any questions you have, provide resources so you are able to get the “big picture” of what your trip experience will be like. All of our clients travel with clear travel instructions, local contacts for support, and emergency numbers. We provide concierge-style travel planning and will happily share with you our personal recommendations based on our most memorable experiences, adventures, restaurants, wellness activities, along with any travel tips that might enhance your trip. We remain at your service before, during, and after you travel.

Laura has been fantastic to work with!
Reviewed By Chase - Monroeville, PA | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
My wife and I are very fortunate to have Laura’s help organizing our honeymoon! We originally planned our honeymoon for June of this year, however needed to push it back due to the Coronavirus. Laura has been fantastic for us - from always being responsive, to finding the best options for us to choose from and staying on top of what is a fluid situation. While we haven’t enjoyed our honeymoon yet (we sure will in time), Laura has made the entire process feel effortless in an unique time and constantly finds ways to save us money and our time. She’s been fantastic to work with and we hope to have her help with future travel plans!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A VILLA VACATION

    From the moment I arrived at The Tryall Club, I knew this vacation would be all about true relaxation. As soon as the air-conditioned private van pulls up to your villa (no hotel lobby check-ins here!) and the warm, welcoming staff greets you with smiles, any lingering travel stress instantly melts away. Fast-forward to my parting thoughts, and ...

    FLORENCE + TUSCANY

    We stopped in Siena on our way to Florence and were instantly charmed. In Florence we continued our research to update The Journey Group Travel Co dining guide and toured a few hotels. The social media “virality” (is that a word yet?) is somewhat of an epidemic here. You’ll randomly run into crazy long lines that seem to be overwhelming the tiny...

    NAPLES + ISCHIA

    My trip started in Naples, a city our agency hasn’t spent much time in. We took a day trip to Ischia (can’t wait to go back!) and hiked The Path of the Gods for the most stunning views of the Amalfi Coast. There’s a certain charm to the chaotic energy of Naples, where we found incredible hospitality, the best pizza in the world (it originated he...

    OFF THE BEATEN PATH IN ITALY

    Our next stop was Santo Stefano di Sessanio, a 16th-century medieval village in the mountainous Abruzzo region. This was a destination I didn’t know I needed in my life. We stayed at Sextantio | Santo Stefano di Sessanio | Albergo Diffuso- a member of Design Hotels (Design Hotels). They have 3 properties - one in Matera + one in Rwanda; all are ...

    EXPLORING CROATIA

    The entire time I was in Split, Croatia I kept thinking what a great destination this would be for our clients who love Italy but want somewhere less-traveled. Of course, having jumped from Italy to Croatia, the comparison was so strong. You can’t take a single thing away from Italy, but if you are looking for a more low-key destination with a w...
