WHAT THE CLIENT ASKED FOR...

Ellen’s preferences and interests are what we call Luxury Adventure Travel. She first came to me to plan a trip to Costa Rica for her and her son. Then, for this most recent trip, she was traveling with her childhood friend to Portugal. But she wanted to maintain that outdoorsy, adventure travel feeling.

 

WHAT WE BOOKED FOR THEM...

We planned an amazing trip for Ellen and her friend to the Azores, the Douro Valley and Lisbon. In the Azores they stayed in a hotel with a thermal center and spa. They hiked, swam, toured much of the island, and indulged in the island’s freshest local foods. In the Douro Valley they enjoyed a bike excursion with their private guide who customized it based on their preferences. They learned about the wines of the region and enjoyed lunch at a vineyard. The walking food tour of Lisbon rounded out their fantastic vacation.
