About Me

Strolling the streets of Cartagena last month!
Strolling the streets of Cartagena last month!

Born in El Salvador and raised in Los Angeles, I followed my passion for travel and made a bold career transition from the corporate legal field to the travel industry.

Inspired by my own adventures, where I carefully saved my time off to explore the world, I realized that travel should be more than just ordinary. That's why I strive to create extraordinary experiences that are authentic, genuine, and respectful of diverse cultures.

Having worked at a luxury travel agency in Mexico City, I have honed my skills and elevated my standards to meet the highest expectations. Now, as an independent luxury travel agent, my goal is to connect with you on a personal level and ensure that every aspect of your journey is tailored to your desires. Let's embark on this exciting adventure together, where every step is crafted with utmost care, and let's create memories that will stay with you forever!

Unforgettable trip!
Reviewed By Lola - Los Angeles, Ca | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
My trip to Greece was truly unforgettable because of Monica! Monica created an amazing experience for my husband and I on our honeymoon. It was my first stress-free trip because Monica went above and beyond to make sure that everything was perfect. We had the best food, went sightseeing, and did some non-tourist like stuff that only the locals would know about. We truly can’t thank Monica enough!
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Mexico City
Reviewed By Gemma - San Diego, CA | Traveled to Mexico City ~ Mexico D.F. ~ Mexico
Monica was a gem! She was so responsive and thoughtful throughout the entire process of planning our trip. My partner and I were excited to travel to Mexico City but had no idea where to stay, eat, etc. She planned the perfect trip! Monica was also really responsive to our messages while we were in Mexico City. I felt like I could count on her if I needed anything. She curated such a wonderful trip with a balance of site seeing, night life, and street tacos and lucha libre!

Our Favorite Vacation!
Reviewed By Jon - Los Angeles, CA | Traveled to Portugal ~ Europe
Monica planned an amazing trip to Portugal for my family a few months ago. We loved everything about our trip! The food was great, the hotels were excellent, and the country itself was incredible. Monica listened to our preferences and made sure to incorporate restaurants that were vegan-friendly, outdoor activities, and arranged for amazing guides. It was very important to us that all of our activities were private, and that's exactly what we got. The trip was well-organized and truly one of the best vacations we have ever had.
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Core Memories
Reviewed By Harper - Los Angeles | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
Monica was wonderful! She gave me the best suggestions for brunch and dinners and helped coordinate a wonderful and luxurious stay! Since it was our first time in Greece I was unsure what to expect and I needed help. I communicated what I needed/wanted out of my trip and accommodations and Monica delivered beyond my expectations AND within budget- so thankful for this experience and for Monica’s guidance and coordination. I was also appreciative that when I had questions, especially while we were there, she was quick to respond- my family and I def. Made some core memories on this trip
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Unforgettable Team Retreat Experience!
"As the founder of a tech startup, I can honestly say our team retreat in Mexico City was a game-changer. Monica handled everything flawlessly, from hotels to exciting activities like the bike taco tour and private mezcal tasting, even booking office space for us to work. Our team bonded over Lucha Libre matches and loved all the dinner reservations we had each night. The entire experience was seamless and truly unforgettable. We returned to work feeling inspired and excited to come back. I highly recommend Monica for any company looking to plan a perfect offsite!"
