About
I am a lifelong travel enthusiast and have visited over 30 countries and lived in Europe for 12 years. As a professional travel advisor, I'm dedicated to ensuring my clients experience their dream trips, wherever they may venture. My approach is rooted in friendliness, responsiveness and a deep understanding of each traveler's preferences and requirements. By forging genuine connections and meticulously tailoring every aspect of their journey, I guarantee unforgettable experiences that align perfectly with my clients' desires. Let's craft your next adventure together!
Travel style
I always want to experience the best of each place I visit, so I do all my research beforehand so I can relax, be present and enjoy the experience as soon as I land. But I always leave room for the unexpected and spontaneous. There's nothing like meeting locals who share hidden gems and I seek out the best accommodation, the most delicious food and wine, the most amazing views and the most unforgettable experiences. I try to strike a balance between exploring hidden gems, seeing all the sights and lazy days with no agenda!

Heather's reviews
It had been a long while since my husband and I had traveled, and we were not even 100% sure where we wanted to go! Heather went over the top to help us choose a destination based on what was important to us. Heather then spent a lot of time working with us on finding the right resort and air package according to our budget and personal preferences. Whenever we had questions, she was spot on quick to respond. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking to book a trip big or small as she definitely took the stress out of planning our wonderful trip!

Top marks to Heather for securing a great room at just the right location, exactly what I needed, and at the right price. My friendly driver was ready to pick me up at the airport and whisk me away in comfort. Everything went so smoothly, this was a great start to the vacation!
