I GO TO THE LOCATION, SCOUT IT OUT, AND THEN BRING YOU ALONG LIKE AN OLD FRIEND.
TRY AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE WHO DOES THIS...GO AHEAD...I'LL WAIT...
adventure without the headache
"I haven't had to think or worry about a single thing this whole time." This quote by one of our group members at the end of a trip encapsulates why this kind of travel is so relaxing. I'm definitely the kind of vacationer that loves a little adventure with my rest, but it isn't a true vacation if you are having to worry and think about all the details. I've done the work before, I take care of everything during the trip, and we put out the little travel fires that inevitably crop up. All you have to do is show up.
responsible travel
Responsible travel is so important. Instead of coming into any place as a greedy consumer, I aim to employ best practices so that our presence boosts the local economy responsibly and treats the land we are on with respect. As much as possible, I always try to make sure money is going into the local's hands. I look for locally owned businesses and believe in tipping well while interacting with the respect they are owed. Our groups take the attitude of a guest and a learner during our trips.
I keep the groups small to enhance your experience. Our typical size is about 6-12 people. The beauty of group travel is that it usually allows us to stay in private accommodations and have services like private chefs or guides. While we do excursions and meals as a group, you'll find that in between, your time is your own. No pressure, no group mixers- this is your vacation.

adventure without the headache
The trip truly was amazing! I saw Italy in a way I never would have had I planned the trip on my own. Everything was planned to perfection and you are a delightful and generous host. It was such a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for an incredible and unforgettable adventure!

By far the best-planned trip we have ever been on. Perfect mix of events and personal time. We love how Alyssa is purposeful to find local businesses and out-of-the-way attractions so as to help the locals and not the big tour companies. The venue was more than perfect. We would HIGHLY recommend this talented tour service and are already signing up for another adventure.

I went on my first yoga retreat to Italy with Alyssa’s group. It exceeded all my expectations!!! You could tell Alyssa did her homework in searching for the right place for this retreat…and she nailed it! We had a personal chef using farm to table ingredients, that I still miss every day!!! She arranged great excursions. You can’t go wrong if you choose Alyssa to help plan any adventure you choose! She’s a 5 star travel agent in my opinion!!!

This group trip was the most relaxing vacation I've ever been on. I didn't had to think or worry about a single thing this whole time.

Alyssa is adept at sorting through the hype, and knows where to direct you to travel to not just SEE destinations, but EXPERIENCE them in full. We were given expert direction on dining, transportation, how long to dedicate to each stop, accommodations, best season to visit, and more - and now have a trip that feels like joyful anticipation rather than a daunting project.
-Penelope
We have a decent amount of experience with international travel [but] this most recent trip we decided to reach out to Alyssa. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. It made planning our trip so much more enjoyable and less overwhelming. She was thoughtful in her recommendations and made sure that we were frequenting places that supported the local community and provided us with opportunities for a more immersive experience. Whether you are new to international travel or a seasoned traveler, we highly recommend Alyssa’s services! We look forward to working with her on future trips!
