Having journeyed from the Arctic to Australia and explored both popular and off-the-beaten-path locations from Greece to Greenland, Vanessa brings invaluable insights that enhance her clients' experiences. “My firsthand knowledge allows me to recommend hidden gems and anticipate potential challenges,” she says.

Her love for travel is deeply rooted in personal experience, such as a transformative trip to South Africa. “I remember waking up before dawn, buzzing with anticipation as I headed out on safari. When the sun started to rise, the landscape unfolded in soft golds and greens, and I was left in awe when I spotted a pride of lions lounging in the shade as elephants meandered nearby. Later, when day turned to dusk, I could hear the bush coming alive—the distant call of a hyena and the rustle of leaves as the animals prepared for the night,” says Vanessa.

But for Vanessa, it was the lively chats with local vendors in markets and heartfelt stories shared around a campfire with people she met along the way that added rich layers to her experience. “Honestly, that’s what travel is all about for me—connecting with places and people in a way that stays with you forever,” she says.

Vanessa has a knack for designing extraordinary holidays, as evidenced by a special month-long trip through America and Mexico she organised for a young couple. She meticulously navigated their itinerary, ensuring every detail was perfectly orchestrated, leaving nothing to chance as it built up to a special moment – a surprise proposal atop The Edge in New York, with the sun setting and the skyline aglow. “Of course, she said yes!”

“I cherish creating experiences like this, where love and adventure intertwine,” Vanessa says. “Witnessing their joy through a heartfelt video message they sent after reminds me why I love curating unforgettable journeys for my clients.”

Vanessa’s clients appreciate her meticulous attention to detail and stress-free planning. “I handle every detail, from flights to hotels to dinner reservations, with care and expertise,” she explains. Her proactive approach is especially valuable when unexpected issues arise, like cancelled flights, ensuring her clients feel supported and worry-free.

“Whether it’s for a first-time traveller venturing to Europe or a seasoned explorer seeking something exceptional, I love creating journeys that leave lasting memories,” she says.

Vanessa is waiting to help you embark on your next one-of-a-kind adventure.
