Let's Create Your European Dream Together! 

I'm Shannon Interian, your go-to guide for crafting the most unforgettable, tailor-made European adventures. With over 27 years of traversing the vibrant streets and serene countrysides of Europe, I've developed a deep, heartfelt connection with this diverse continent's landscapes, cultures, and hidden gems. My passion? Bringing your dream European vacation to life, with a special spotlight on the enchanting realms of Italy.

Why Italy, you ask?

Imagine sipping a fine Chianti in a quaint vineyard nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, or losing yourself in the rich history and breathtaking art of Florence and Venice. Now, picture a sunset dinner along the stunning Amalfi Coast, where the sea and sky meet in a spectacle of colors. This is but a glimpse of the experiences I curate for my travelers. While my heart beats for Italy, especially the northern regions and the captivating Amalfi Coast, my expertise spans the entire European continent. From the lavender fields of Provence to the historic streets of Prague, I design journeys that go beyond the typical tourist trails. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or a solo exploration, I tailor every trip to match your personal interests, preferences, and pace.

What Sets Me Apart?

Personalized Itineraries: Your trip should be as unique as you are. I meticulously plan every detail to ensure your European experience perfectly aligns with your desires and expectations.

Insider Knowledge: My years of exploration have gifted me with invaluable insights and local connections across Europe, allowing me to offer you exclusive experiences and recommendations.

Full Support: From the planning stages to your return home, I'm here to offer guidance, answer questions, and ensure your journey is seamless and stress-free.

Passion for Culture and History: Europe's rich history and diverse cultures are endlessly fascinating. I love sharing this passion with my clients, enhancing their understanding and appreciation of the places they visit.

Ready to embark on a European adventure that you'll reminisce about for years to come? Whether it's the allure of Italy or the charm of another European destination that calls to you, I'm here to make it happen. Let's start planning your bespoke European experience today. 

 

Adventure awaits, and I can't wait to be a part of your journey!

Details Details Details.. Shannon had them all.
Reviewed By Iris E. - Parkland, FL | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Shannon has the patience of an angel! :) We were a family of five and it’s not easy planning a trip for 1 person never mind 5! Even when 1 person keeps changing things last minute (eh hem ..the husband) She was pleasant sweet and never seemed to be bothered by our annoying questions. Shannon was like our personal concierge every step of the way.. always making sure we were good and always quick to answer our text even when she was on her own vacation with her family! She knew so much about how things work in ITaly and reassured us everything would work out. And it did. I have the patience of a toddler..so I had to take a deep breath every now and then. Shannon chose accommodations that fit my family and were in close proximity to everything. The traveling on trains and boats and private transfers she arranged. She was on top of it all every single day for 14 days! We texted her almost every single day to confirm our travel arrangements for the next day and she responded asap!

First Time To Europe!!!
Reviewed By Jill Rudison - Miami, FL | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Working with Shannon has been amazing! Planning my own travel is daunting and overwhelming to me, and as someone who is juuuust starting to travel extensively, being able to hand her the reigns and know that she's planning the trip as if she were taking it herself, has been such a huge relief. I never have to worry with Shannon booking my travel! She makes it incredibly easy and smooth! All I have to do is essentially show up and take the vacation!!!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

A beautiful and seamless summer family trip
Reviewed By JennyP. - Miami, Florida | Traveled to Desenzano | Italy | Europe
Shannon helped us plan the Italian leg of our family summer euro trip. She was extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with, also so responsive and happy to answer any questions. She helped us to rent a car and plan our stay in Desenzano del Garda, including hotel stay, site-seeing recommendations and restaurant recommendations. The car rental was seamless and the service provider made it quick and easy. They even had it ready early for us. The hotel in Lake Garda was excellent, Villa Rosa Hotel. The hotel itself was beautiful, clean and the service was excellent. The included breakfast was also far beyond our expectations, it was a beautiful buffet. We also really liked that it was like a 5-8 minute walk to the busier town area so it was quieter, but also not as hot. Overall we were very pleased to have worked with Shannon and would gladly do so again!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

My Travel Stories

me in 2018 at the Venice Carnival

Venice Carnival

In 2018, I found myself swept up in one of the most surreal, intoxicating, and theatrical experiences of my life—the Venice Carnival. I had always heard about it—those hauntingly elegant masks, the gondolas slicing through misty canals, the piazzas pulsing with music and velvet capes. But nothing prepared me for the magic of actually being there...
