Our extensive study and commitment to personal travel enable us to offer you a uniquely high level of customer service. We believe education and travel are important aspects of a travel advisor. Keeping abreast of travel trends makes us valuable resources for our clients. In many situations we are not only travel advisors- we are concierges, offering information on restaurants, shopping, sightseeing, museums, and even where to find the best gelato in Rome! With our extensive travels, we all have “favorites” that we love to pass along.
