Travel style
As a child, my mother brought me around the world doing volunteer work. I’m not sure my school appreciated the chronic absences, but it was the best education one could hope for. By the time I was 18, I had visited India, Africa, Russia, Mexico, Central America and Europe, where I stayed and worked with locals. These experiences created an insatiable desire to experience the world as an insider and a love for slow travel.
In my 20’s, I channeled this passion into a job working as a tour manager in the music industry. I traveled for years with a world-famous artist to plan, advance and execute their tours and personal travel. This was a masterclass in providing excellent service, anticipating possible problems and curating seamless experiences no matter where we were going. I absolutely loved this season of my life, and I became to go-to person in my circle of friends for planning amazing trips.
After taking some time off to start a family, I decided to start a travel consulting company called My Friend Bekah to continue helping amazing people experience the world. I’m an expert at crafting incredible experiences that are uniquely curated for each individual client. I work with lovely people in all stages of life, including couples, groups of friends, multi-generational families, families with children and empty-nesters. My trips range from far-flung honeymoons and destination weddings to luxury but authentic excursions through Africa and India, to European vacations and Arctic expeditions.
My services are more expansive than the typical advisor. I am fluent in ultra-luxury necessities like private jet charters, penthouse suites, heli transit and private villas with a 5-star chef. I’m also a points fanatic, and even though most agents won’t help you with points, I’ll happily transform your AMEX or Chase points into lie-flat first class suites or economy tickets for your entire extended family. Most importantly, I always want my clients to get a good value for their money and I’ll always present you with insider knowledge and a chance to really experience your destination.
My personal go-to places that I visit again and again are Hawaii, Mexico and Costa Rica. These are easy family destinations for west-coasters like me. No matter where you want to go, I will make sure you have the best trip possible with all the details handled. Looking to travel? What are you waiting for? Let’s talk!
I'm the problem-solving, hand-holding, travel bestie you've been searching for to take your vacations to the next level. I got you!

Bekah 's reviews
Working with Bekah LeBeau has been such a pleasure! She took on the work of planning a wonderful 30th anniversary adventure in Italy for my husband and me. She makes thoughtful suggestions keeping budget in mind. At the beginning of our work together she asked some excellent discovery questions to better understand us and our preferences. I love that she will work with us however we desire from booking only hotels to planning every step of the trip. She has already helped us with a second trip and I am thankful to now have a friend and resource to call on for all things travel! I can't wait for the next trip...it's way more fun to collaborate with Bekah and enjoy her great suggestions than deliberate options on my own!

Bekah helped me plan a week-long trip to France (Paris and the Loire Valley) in celebration of a milestone birthday for my mother. I chose to work with a travel agent because the thought of having to research the right accommodations, neighborhood, train travel and activities felt too overwhelming to handle on my own. Having Bekah's help was such a gift - she made the process as stress-free as possible and we had a beautiful trip. Her communication style is incredibly clear, and after getting to know me on just 1 or 2 calls she was able to make recommendations that were exactly what I was looking for. She is thoughtful, patient, and so knowledgeable about the area and travel trends in general. Everything was seamless and my mother had the best time celebrating her birthday. Thank you, Bekah!

Bekah is the best luxury travel advisor! I could not have imagined a more perfect getaway and she made every moment special. We will not book another vacation without her, the perks were incredible and we felt like we were treated above and beyond. Every step of the process was easy, I can't wait for our next trip Bekah plans!

Bekah is incredible to work with. She always thinks of the small details that you don’t think of for yourself, goes the extra mile to elevate your stay, and she is so easy to talk to. It’s literally like planning a trip with your super helpful bestie. At the Pendry, she helped us get an insane room upgrade and we were greeted with a customized welcome gift as well. Using Bekah to book trips is a no-brainer!
