My career began with organizing ski groups to destinations throughout the US, Canada and Europe. I have organized groups as large as 110 to ski the Alps, ski buses to various Eastern US and Canadian resorts, and groups to Western US and Canadian resorts, including helicopter skiing in the Rockies. As I diversified my interests, I became a specialist in Italy, designing customized packages and private tours to numerous destinations in Italy, from the Northern lakes to the Dolomites, from Tuscany to Puglia, from Cinque Terre to Capri, and everywhere in between. One of my favorite cities in Europe is Amsterdam, a world heritage site, which is unique and exciting with more museums than any European capital, where I cycle frequently and organize city stays and group packages. Every year, I organize groups for sightseeing tours throughout Italy and other parts of Europe, as well as groups to Amsterdam Pride, to the European Alps for skiing (where Val D'Isere, France remains my personal favorite ski destination!), and to destinations within the US and Canada. I also organize school groups, student field trips, student language groups, adventure travel and more! LGBT clients call for my personal insight and sensitivity into their specific needs and concerns. My clients are loyal and return often. Referrals have spanned generations, so if you are looking for some excitement in your life, let me help you find it!

Italy Specialist

Italy your way! Imagine you and your personal driver/guide on a full day Italian adventure along the Amalfi Coast. You stop in Positano for lunch, continue onward to beautiful Amalfi and stop in Ravello for an authentic taste of la dolce vita. Italy is all about the experience- the history, the culture, the scenic beauty, the food, and of course the people! There isn't a neighborhood Italian feast that can compare to what you experience firsthand in Italy. Let me take you there. My many years of specializing in travel to Italy includes designing private guided holidays and escorting group tours, educational tours, and group ski holidays to Cortina, Bormio, Val Gardena and more. I recently returned from one of my small group tours of Venice, Lake Garda (the largest of the Italian lakes), Florence and the Tuscan countryside. Incredible! From the Dolomites to Rome and from Portovenere to Puglia, I've got it covered. Some of the tours I feature through my special contacts in Rome include a "Golf Cart tour of Rome" with access to restricted areas; special tours designed for kids and family; the Tuscan countryside and medieval cities of Siena and San Gimignano; a Vespa tour in the Chianti hills; Chianti wine tasting and lunch; a Ferrari test drive in Maranello; a coast line tour (by boat) of Cinque Terre and Portovenere and walk along the Path of Lovers. Don't forget Sicily with some of the best seafood, a wealth of Greek ruins and the largest active volcano in Europe (lying between the African and Eurasian plates). I could go on and on, but you get the picture. There's so much adventure and excitement in your specially-customized holiday in Italy that you'll be talking about it for many years to come. So what are you waiting for? Call ME!
