Bucket List and Multi-Year Travel Maps
Everyone relaxes and recharges differently. Some of our clients love hut-to-hut hiking and scaling awe-inspiring peaks; others seek meditative communion with oceans and mountains. We help you identify the right options for what you need at a particular moment in your life.

Couples getaways
The beauty of life lies in its impermanence. Travel for birthdays, graduations, and other celebrations is the optimal way to rejoice and enjoy the present moment with our loved ones, while creating lifelong memories.
Celebrations
From summer vacations, to parent-child trips, to sabbaticals lasting a month or more, we remove stress and infuse joy into family travel. Each family is unique; we collaborate closely with you to understand what is important to your family, accommodating busy schedules and multi-generational dynamics.

We had a fantastic experience working with Alessia on a dream vacation to Italy and England. After listening carefully to our ideas, she translated them into a phenomenal two weeks filled with wonderful experiences in absolutely gorgeous settings. Her recommendations are impeccable and she attended to every detail. Alessia's eye for beauty, personal warmth and passion for creating experiences of a lifetime make her a pleasure to work with. We couldn't recommend her more highly.
- Miriam I.
I just returned home from a 'bucket list' trip to Italy with my husband that Alessia helped me plan and it was absolutely incredible! Our trip exceeded all of my expectations--the logistics were seamless and all the details were so thoughtful. Alessia really listened to our priorities and helped us create an incredible itinerary, including a once in a lifetime foodie experience. I also really appreciate that she helped us with everything including restaurant reservations, hotels, and experiences. My least favorite part of traveling is the planning--it really sucks the joy out of it. Working with Alessia made this a vacation rather than a trip, and I am so glad I worked with her!
- Marcy C.
Alessia designed literally the best trip to Mexico to celebrate my milestone birthday! When I say it was PERFECT, it really was….communication was crystal clear throughout the process, the room choice was stunning, and our gorgeous hotel treated us with so much thoughtfulness, warmth, and special touches as her clients. I’ve already planned my next trip with Alessia, this time to Aspen!
- Jennifer B.
Alessia is on top of every detail and prioritized our personal preferences and comfort during our trip to Costa Rica. Her suggestions were a great mix of fun and relaxation that were perfect for our family. The itinerary app was an added bonus that kept everyone up-to-date and engaged. We are already daydreaming about planning our next trip with Alessia!
- Jas S.
Working with Alessia on our recent trip to Kauai was seamless and fun! As you can imagine, I was feeling overwhelmed planning an adventurous 8-day itinerary for 10 people ranging in age from 4 to 76. Alessia didn't bat an eye - she stepped in immediately to offer amazing suggestions, reach out to her vendors and partners on details, and gather the needed information from us to recommend, plan and book our entire itinerary within a week. Alessia is experienced, kind and well-traveled, and I was thrilled to work with her. I cannot wait to plan future trips with Alessia!
- Rachel S.
The anniversary trip Alessia planned for us in Italy was beyond wonderful. We loved everything! She planned out each detail but also listened to our need for plenty of unscheduled time. She chose wonderful boutique hotels, perfect for different reasons. We traveled with such ease and didn’t worry about anything, thoroughly enjoying ourselves. Alessia included unique touches that showed how carefully she crafted the itinerary and how much she cares. Before this trip, we rarely traveled because we found it too stressful, and now we are already planning next summer’s trip with Alessia with our teenage kids joining. Alessia opened up a whole new world for us and we are so grateful!
For travel to favorite/classic destinations booked within 45 days of departure generally, or within 90 days of travel for Dec. 20-Jan 10, we typically assess an additional fee of 50% above our design fee. Securing reservations given availability and minimum stay constraints is very challenging, may require extensive research into alternatives if preferred partners are booked, and compels us to de-prioritize other work.
