Fifty Years planning Dream Vacations Worldwide

Tanzania Serengetti

During a lifetime of travel, it is thrilling to help clients plan unique vacation trips that correspond to their interests and backgrounds. As a travel planner for more than 50 years, I am proud to currently serve as President of the Alliance of Westchester Travel Advisors in New York.

One of my favorite distinctive itineraries I’ve ever been able to create was for a long-term client, a New York City doctor who was born in South Africa. It was unusual because it took him from Capetown to Durban, then on to Kruger National Park on the eastern coast. I excel at tailoring travel experiences to unique needs. In 1987, I even accompanied a group of New York doctors to China to study Eastern medicine in relation to Western practices, at a time when the population was still wearing uniforms.

I later toured India and the Golden Triangle, staying in 5-Star hotels, to study and become certified in Yoga. Now I teach yoga classes at local  community centers and LA Fitness. Recently, I traveled from Lima, Peru to Santiago, Chile by boat. It was a surprise to learn that one of the largest deserts on earth exists in Chile, another example of how my diverse experience allows me to personalize travel for my clients.

I am especially familiar with Italy, its history and art, and the country's varied regions from the northern Alps to the Amalfi Coast, and the southern beaches of Puglia. My family hails from the island of Sicily, and I have traveled to Italy more than 30 times. In fact, the travel agency that my father founded chartered the first Pan American 747 for a trip to Italy in 1972. 

I have been privileged to serve a wide variety of clients, from single travelers to multi-generational groups. I am here to help with any challenge your travels may bring. Recently, I helped a client who left his passport on board the Douro in Portugal. I got a hold of the Captain of the boat and got him to stop on the river, get a cab, and take his passport back to my client at his hotel. I have built an extensive contact list, and my availability is 24/7 to assist with anything you may need.

When I’m not traveling, I love to teach Yoga, and stay active by biking and skiing. Contact me today to book your next dream vacation!
