How we travel is changing, and I think 2025 will redefine luxury in some incredible ways. It’s no longer just about fancy hotels and gourmet meals—it’s all about the connections we make along the way. As a luxury travel advisor, I’ve noticed that my clients are looking for experiences that resonate on a deeper level. If you’re dreaming about your next getaway, here’s what to watch—and why it matters.

So, you’ve “done” Italy more than once and wonder, “What else is out there for my next adventure?” Let me introduce you to a destination that sits off the beaten path yet promises an extraordinary experience: Welcome to Malta!

There’s something truly magical about the thrill of theme parks that captivates us from a young age and continues to ignite our excitement as we grow older! Reflecting on my childhood visits to Disney and Universal parks, I remember the joy of meeting my favorite characters, the adrenaline of experiencing the newest attractions, and the sheer magic of being fully immersed in the most creatively themed lands that allowed my imagination to run wild for a few moments. These experiences not only created cherished memories for me with family and friends, but also sparked a lifelong love for theme parks. Now, as an adult, I find myself returning to these enchanting worlds with my own children, where nostalgia mixes right in with new adventures!

Ireland, with its carefully preserved cultural legacy, offers an extraordinary backdrop for such a transformative experience for anyone seeking to uncover their roots.

I’ve often written about the benefits of booking hotels through a travel advisor with preferred luxury brand relationships. As we approach the holiday season, I want to update this information for those planning trips, even last-minute ones.

Halloween has become a global phenomenon, with every place adding its own twist of mystery, tradition, and excitement. If you’re looking for a hauntingly memorable experience, check out these five incredible destinations, plus a couple for All Souls’ Day.

After our time in Rome, we headed out into the countryside toward Tuscany. Tuscany is famous for its tall Cypress trees and delicious wines like Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Brunello di Montalcino.

I had the incredible honor of traveling to Italy with some of my most cherished clients a couple of weeks ago. The next stop was Rome, where we seemingly traveled through time, culture, and, most deliciously, culinary treasures that would tantalize any traveler’s palate. Today, I’ll take you on a vicarious journey through some incredible moments we shared. 

Travel is transformative, and for an unforgettable journey, few destinations compare to Greece and Italy. Recently, I had the pleasure of crafting an extraordinary itinerary for a small group of discerning travelers, taking them on a grand adventure through Crete, Santorini, Naxos. Our Greek adventure ended with the historic landmarks of Athens before embarking on a sumptuous Italian experience along the Amalfi Coast.

From the moment we arrived, we knew Santorini was extraordinary. The bright blue waters and stunning caldera views, left us eager to start our adventure. I’ve never seen a more photogenic destination in my life! Every spot we encountered was more picturesque than the last. It’s no wonder that the “Insta girls” and influencers flock here for social media content. Speaking of these “Insta” folks, I suggest avoiding accommodations near the domes. I met a couple whose balcony overlooked the blue domes, and they told me how difficult it was to get to and from their hotel, not to mention the lack of privacy. I recommend staying at the beginning of Oia. It’s just a short walk down the marble sidewalk to the heart of the shopping, restaurants, and photo spots, but you can escape when you’ve had enough of the crowds.
