Your Gateway to Extraordinary

The world should be experienced.
The world should be experienced.

I look forward to meeting you!

With a globe-trotting career that spans over a decade across multiple prestigious travel agencies, I bring more than just travel planning to my clients; I bring a passion that has been finely honed through my own extensive journeys and a deep-seated love for uncovering the world’s hidden treasures.

I’ve garnered glowing five-star reviews and loyal clients who count on me for more than just vacations, they rely on me to craft life-enriching experiences. I specialize in Luxurious European Getaways and Cultural Immersion in Asia, my professional portfolio is as diverse as my travel history. Whether it’s a serene escape to the untouched corners of Thailand or a luxurious journey through the historic heart of Italy, my itineraries are a testament to my detailed knowledge and love for the cultures I introduce to my clients.

Clients often recall stories similar to how I found a hidden vineyard in Tuscany for a couple wanting to experience authentic Italian wine-making. This magical detour led them to a private tasting with the vineyard owner, turning their trip into an unforgettable story they often share with friends and family.

Certified by the most esteemed institutions in travel management, and a recipient of numerous awards for my innovative approach, my expertise isn’t just recognized by my clients, but also by the industry I love.

I like to say, "Travel is more than seeing sights; it’s about creating soul-stirring connections and memories,"

With each client I meet and every itinerary I craft, I continue to deliver on that promise, ensuring every trip is not just taken but truly experienced.

She was right!

Reviewed By John - Texas | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Hali helped me book an incredible trip on the Amalfi coast a few years ago and it was the best tour I took in the month I was in Europe! She asked only a few really well thought out questions and then was able to suggest a multitude of tours right off the top of her head. It was very impressive. She even responded to a question I had late one night while I was in London, which she didn't have to do, but was very much appreciated! Thank you again, Hali!!

Hali designed the perfect trip to Italy!

Reviewed By Ricky D - Houston, Texas | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Hali planned our vacation to Italy in the summer of 2023. We spent one week in Elba island and one week in Florence. The two places she found for us to stay were spectacular. The house in Elba was right on the ocean with the best view and best pool I have ever swam in. The place in Florence was also perfect. She planned a perfect mix of city activities and wine country for us. We visited the David at night and that was perfect. And she found us a rooftop bar to watch the sunset in Florence, very romantic. I highly recommend her, you will not regret it.

Italy made EASY thanks to Hali!

Reviewed By Katie - Arlington, VA | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Hali is an amazing travel agent - I'd say she's more than that, she's really a travel companion who gives you the real deal. Her experience and love of adventure are clear throughout the entire process I worked with her. She provides amazing experiences that you wouldn't find in an average travel guide. Hali helped me navigate southern Italy on my own (a single woman at the time) and even get into the Vatican to see the Pope! She also helped me and my parents get in to see The Last Supper in Milan (very difficult to obtain depending on the time). Overall, she's an awesome agent with great connections who will make sure your trip is incredible.

Italian Dream vacation

Reviewed By Fran - Boston, MA | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Hali Vik planned us an incredible 23 day getaway to Italy which allowed us to visit a lot of very incredible sites. The way she handled not only travel and a very exciting and diverse itinerary Is the kind of travel agent magic that you dream of and hope for. From the incredible lodging to the dining experiences and museum visits, I couldn’t think of anyone more qualified in planning Such an incredible Italian excursion than Hali. The way we got to feel like locals while being in a place so far from home made it so warm and unforgettable and I still talk about this trip to everyone to this day. You are a treasure Hali Vik.

Hali is the way to Italy!

Reviewed By Cat B - Boston, MA | Traveled to Florence ~ Italy ~ Europe
Hali is professional and compassionate with her travel. Not only does she set you up with the best experience; she also gets to know you on a personal level to give you the perfect trip. Whenever I’ve consulted with her for Airbnbs or hotels, I’ve received the exact thing I was told. I’ve traveled many many times to Italy and have been fooled by great photography into a less than desired situation. I now use Hali for any accommodations or experiences whenever I go abroad and I’ve yet to be disappointed. Hali is the best!
