The rich aroma of espresso and sounds of lively chatter in cafés signal the start of my days when in Italy - transporting me back to childhood summers where I first discovered this special country. In fact, I trace my lifelong wanderlust to my first trip to Italy at 13, when I first came upon this picturesque and enchanting Old World place. It ultimately led to my choice of a career as a travel agent specialist. I also worked five years at Swiss International Airlines. My travel agency was voted “Irvine’s Best” for three years in a row as well. So, allow me to schedule a journey that you’ll never forget. A trip to Italy, for example, is not complete without strolling a seaside promenade, gelato in hand, or savoring a sampling of Barolo paired with slow-cooked osso bucco in wine country. Whether your trip takes you to emerald hills or sundrenched sands, I can help with all the plans! Call me today for all the details! I look forward to serving as your travel agent advisor.

My Travel Stories
Under the Tuscan Sun in Cortona
Cortona is a hilltop town overlooking the Val D'Orcia with its gently rolling hills, vineyards and Cypresses which Tuscany is famous for.
It was founded as an Etruscan town and there are still many signs of this heritage scattered throughout. Traffic is limited to residents only, but it's an easy walk down the ... Read more from my Under the Tuscan Sun in Cortona story.
Fantastic to work with!
Diana really cares about me and my wife having a superb honeymoon trip in Amalfi Coast.... she took the time to make sure everything was on plan and the hotels and flights were A+ !! I could not have done this trip and great honeymoon without her.
Very professional, has a load of expertise that she shares with you, and she is super organized - which we needed!!
We will definitely use her services next trip!!
Beautiful Portofino
Live Nativity near Todi, Umbria
Riding on the walls of Lucca
Family reunion in Tuscany
Honeymoon in Cinque Terre
Beautiful Cape Town!
Diana lived in Cape Town for many years, so she suggested many places near the city and within a few hours away by car. Had we not contacted Diana, we would probably have seen a limited part of the peninsula and would have missed so much of its beauty and diversity. Thank you, Diana! Hopefully we will go back someday soon. We will definitely contact you again when we do,
Safari trip on our bucket list
She organized our flights, accommodation, ground transportation and additional side trips. She was very responsive throughout the preparation of our trip, and our many questions about our first safari which has been on our bucket list for a while. I would highly recommend her not only for a trip to South Africa, but anywhere else in the world.
Siena's Duomo compared to Milan's
We will never forget the unbelievable beauty (inside and out). It is by far one of the most beautiful in Italy, and we would never had visited it without her knowledge of the area.
Breathtaking views at Lake Como!
The views were breathtaking! We were so close to Switzerland that she suggested a visit to Lugano as well, and so glad we took her advice on both!
Assisi - the home of St. Francis of Assisi
What a wonderful experience walking in the town where he was born and lived for many years, as well as eating in the quaint restaurant you recommended that "they say" he frequented hundreds of years ago, Umbria is really beautiful and so close to Tuscany.
Diana met every expectation!
Prompt communication throughout!
I found a gem!
My wife's suitcase with her wedding dress was mislaid on the flight from Scotland to Italy. Diana personally took it on herself to contact someone she knew and the suitcase was delivered to the hotel in record time.
She is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented.
I would highly recommend her.
Our personal Italian translator to the rescue!
Diana skillfully put together an impressive itinerary for us, offering round-the-clock assistance. During our day to Capri from Rome, she helped coordinate our journey, guiding us on the train routes and schedules.
While the day in Capri was unforgettable, our return posed challenges due to a missed train. Fortunately, Diana's quick assistance, even speaking Italian to the train conductor across the miles, helped us navigate the situation and get back to Rome smoothly.
Grateful for her support, we can't wait to travel again and look forward to Diana helping us on our next adventure!

South African Honeymoon
Diana was incredible in finding the perfect destination for my honeymoon. I told her what we were looking for and she was able to present a variety of options to us. I told her I did not want the run of the mill honeymoon destination, but at the same time I wanted it to be romantic, adventurous and exotic. I thought I was asking a bit much, but she was able to meet every expectation. She was able to take care of every part of the travel and the transitions between flights, transportation and hotel went extremely well. My honeymoon was everything I could have asked for.

I found a gem!
I found a gem when I accidentally found Diana and her Travel Agency. She organized our honeymoon on the Amalfi Coast and booked us at the best hotel with an amazing view of the Gulf of Naples and the island of Capri in the distance. She also organized a private car service with an English speaking driver, which made communicating so much easier. My wife's suitcase with her wedding dress was mislaid on the flight from Scotland to Italy. Diana personally took it on herself to contact someone she knew and the suitcase was delivered to the hotel in record time. She is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented.
