Chris was well prepared and gave us a wealth of information that helped us in our planning. He was very familiar with the areas we were interested in and gave us a variety of options for the amount of time we have for our trip. He included maps, itineraries, etc. His suggestions included a range of options. Thank you Chris for being such a big help!

We wanted to make sure we spent our time in Tuscany seeing the unique places that weren't too busy with tourists. Serena was very knowledgeable and gave us some great recommendations. She was also helpful making sure we didn't waste time driving in the direction and gave us some great tips for restaurants and wineries. Hoping to grab a glass of wine with her when we visit! Thank you Serena!

Dania was wonderful to visit with. She brought enthusiasm and experience, was well prepared and efficient with our time. We’re looking forward to a follow up meeting as we continue to plan our family vacation.

Maria saved us so much time by listening to what we enjoy doing and helping us narrow down the places to visit in Argentina. She also gave great tips on getting around.

We scheduled a pre-trip consult with Nuno to help us plan our visit to Portugal. We submitted the questionnaire in advance, and his suggestions were tailored to our preferences. Nuno shared so much knowledge with us, and the entire outline of our trip has changed based on his suggestions. This is going to be so much better than what we could have planned on our own!

Paolo was fantastic in advising us on our upcoming Puglia trip! He studied the questionnaire that we completed before hand and had a very good idea of what we wanted to do. And he provided us with so many trip ideas, where to base ourselves, what sites are a "must" see, accommodations, info on parking, etc. He even provided us with a weather ap to watch the winds -- and gave insights what to visit or not given the winds. He is great! The experience was so worth the money and hour spent with Paolo.

Paolo was incredible. He was extremely well prepared and clearly reviewed our itinerary in advance. He asked smart, focused questions at the start and then offered specific recommendations rather than generic advice. He helped us prioritize locations, suggested realistic day trips, flagged what was and was not worth the time, and shared local tips we would not have found on our own. He also followed up with resources and links that made planning much easier after the call. The hour was efficient, personalized, and genuinely useful. Easily one of the best uses of an hour in our planning process and absolutely a five-star experience.
