Travel Planning

Custom trip planning is closed, but the good stuff isn’t.

Demand outgrew my one-to-one planning, so I put the same research, hidden spots, and day-by-day structure into guides you can buy today. Pair a guide with its Google Map and you’ve got a bespoke itinerary you shape yourself.

The Guide gives your trip its shape: day-by-day framework, where to stay, what to book, what to skip.

The Map puts every scouted spot in your pocket, so you reshuffle on the fly and never lose the thread.

Together: all my groundwork, curated your way.

What Travelers Are Saying..

This didn’t just help us plan our trip, it shaped it. Instead of overcrowded restaurants and gimmicky attractions, we experienced Japan through someone who genuinely loves it and has incredible taste. We found places we never would have discovered on our own.

Everything you arranged was seamless, and your recommendations were all spot on. You helped us reshape the whole trip around what we needed and still get us well off the beaten path. We had a fabulous time, and the private drivers were worth every euro through two train strikes and a taxi strike. I hope we get the chance to work with you again!

I had an incredible 10 days in Tokyo and Kyoto and I don’t think I could have done it with as much authenticity and also specificity without your guide. I travel a lot, so I have experience of going off script and doing my own thing, But your guide provided me with the foundation and ability to adapt based on my interests and what I enjoy doing. I had such limited time to plan so I just opened the guide and went day by day! It was a godsend for me, and saved me hours and hours of research!

We did almost everything on your list in two days and loved getting to know Shimokitazawa and Naka-Meguro. A deep dive is our style, and being in neighborhoods without much tourism was perfect. Exceptional value, worth every penny.

— The Deep-Dive Couple: Susan – Tokyo, 2026

We had an incredible time and an unbelievable experience. You did an amazing job curating our trip, it’s even hard to explain to others, because it was so unique, which was exactly what we were looking to do!

The Modern Family: Liz & Co. – Sicily & The Aeolian Islands, 2024

THE TRIP WAS GREAT. It was some of the best, hardest, and scariest skiing I have done. That includes the backcountry Cat Skiing I did in BC a few years back. It was a little bit of an adrenal rush skiing in the storms. Couldn’t see 30 to 40 ft in front of you on a mountain where we don’t know where the trails go.  I would do this all over again!!

Thank you so much Sveva for all of your help planning the trip to Sicily. All of your tips suggesting the most beautiful spots to visit, hotels to stay in and the food to try were absolutely amazing. Particularly the time you spent planning mock itineraries was so lovely and in-depth and very much appreciated. The trip was amazing! And i loved seeing the beautiful pictures in your blog prior to going. I can’t thank you enough.

Thank you so much for planning an unforgettable honeymoon for my husband and I. All your restaurant recommendations, booking our tours and hotels was just fantastic. You were easy to work with and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to book a trip. I hope to book another one with you real soon. Great job again, we can’t thank you enough for the trip of our lives.
