Hi, I’m Jane Elzinga, the owner and founder of Solstice Travel, a luxury travel agency curating extraordinary journeys for couples, groups, and retreat hosts around the world. My passion for travel began long before I founded my agency, but since opening Solstice Travel, it has grown into something far greater than a career. It’s a calling to help others experience the kind of travel that changes the way they see the world.
I specialize in crafting high-touch, fully customized itineraries for discerning travelers who value personalization, connection, and elevated experiences. Whether it’s a honeymoon in Italy, a private group adventure through Morocco, or a wellness retreat on the Amalfi Coast, I design trips that blend luxury with authenticity. My goal is always the same: to ensure every moment feels intentional, seamless, and entirely unique to you.
Through my brands Solstice Travel, Solstice Weddings, and Solstice Retreats, I’ve had the privilege of planning unforgettable experiences for clients across the globe. From milestone celebrations and romantic honeymoons to corporate incentive trips and transformational retreats, my team and I bring the same level of care, creativity, and organization to every itinerary we create.
While Europe holds a special place in my heart (especially destinations like Italy, Spain, Ireland, and Greece), I’ve also developed strong relationships with partners across Japan, Morocco, and Egypt. These partnerships allow me to provide exclusive access, insider recommendations, and unique experiences that go far beyond what you’ll find online.
As a proud member of the Travel Leaders Luxury Leaders Alliance, the Select Group, and WorldVia’s Luxe Luminaries, I have access to an extensive global network of luxury hotels, on-site partners, and industry experts. These affiliations ensure my clients receive VIP treatment, exclusive amenities, and personalized attention wherever their travels take them.
I believe luxury is about more than five-star hotels. It’s about ease, trust, and thoughtful details that allow you to fully immerse yourself in each destination. It’s about knowing someone has taken care of every arrangement so you can simply show up and enjoy. That philosophy shapes every trip I plan because travel should never feel stressful; it should feel like an experience designed just for you.
Over the years, I’ve had the honor of helping hundreds of clients celebrate some of life’s biggest moments through travel. From surprise proposals overlooking the Eiffel Tower, to multi-generational family adventures through the Irish countryside, to intimate yoga retreats in the Caribbean, each itinerary is built around your story. No two trips are ever the same, because no two travelers are.
Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic escape, a custom group journey, or a transformational retreat experience, I would love to help bring your vision to life. My team and I handle everything from logistics and accommodations to local guides, transfers, and dining recommendations, ensuring a beautifully streamlined process from start to finish.
When you work with Solstice Travel, you’re not just booking a trip; you’re collaborating with a dedicated partner who cares about the details as much as you do. My goal is for you to return home with memories that last a lifetime and a renewed sense of wonder for the world.
Let’s create something unforgettable together.
My clients often tell me that working with Solstice Travel made them feel completely taken care of from start to finish. Whether it was a honeymoon through Italy, a private family villa in Greece, or a yoga retreat in Costa Rica, each trip was crafted with thoughtful detail and personal care.
I believe that travel is most meaningful when it reflects who you are, which is why no two itineraries are ever the same. My goal is to make every journey effortless, inspired, and unforgettable so that you can focus on what truly matters: experiencing the world with the people you love.
