About Me

Rubbing Il Porcellino’s Snout In Florence
Rubbing Il Porcellino’s Snout In Florence

I have always loved vacation planning. Even before I was a travel agent, I would spend countless hours researching my vacation destinations to come up with trips that would be memorable and meaningful. 

I loved exploring the ancient wonders in Rome but then finishing up my day with unbelievable food at authentic Italian restaurants full of culture and life. In Florence, when we weren't mesmerized by David and the Duomo, we were cooking gnocchi and stuffed eggplant with a wonderful Italian chef. A drive through the Tuscan countryside provided hours of shopping, exploring, and, of course, more eating.

On my many trips to London (one of my favorite places in the world), i never miss the spectacular Afternoon Tea at Fortnum and Mason.  Visiting the Tower of London makes you feel like you've stepped back in time. Each site has a story to tell, from the Crown Jewels to the exquisite black ravens, to the stoic beefeaters, it's a walk through history. A day trip from London to Stratford-Upon-Avon, Bath, or a Downton Abbey tour are another way to immerse you in British culture. Top it all off with a ride on an iconic red double-decker bus for a vacation that is sure to delight!

As a travel agent, I ask my clients many questions to ensure I understand what they're truly looking for in their European travel experience. Then, I help them decide whether FIT or Escorted Travel is the best yet option. If Escorted travel will work best for their needs, I match them with a tour company that provides the accommodations, amenities, and experiences that would be best for them.  If FIT travel is more their speed, I craft custom itineraries that incorporate must-see attractions with unique extras that speak to their passions and preferences.

Smooth Travels!
Reviewed By Girls World - Brooklyn, NY | Traveled to Universal Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Jamie made our trip a breeze! We took our first family trip to Universal and Disney and didn't really know where to start. She accurately assessed what was important to us and made it happen - advising on hotels, which parks and where to start, restaurant reservations and more. Happy mom, happy dad and happy kids!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
