Wendy's reviews
She was great in helping us get everything set, and making sure our daughters nut allergy was accounted for at each of our accommodations.

Wendy was absolutely and utterly FANTASTIC. I had waited too long to make plans for our trip to Italy that was going to be both a belated honeymoon and our friends wedding. Wendy saved the day. With less than four weeks, she curated the most wonderful and memorable trip of a lifetime. Every detail was taken care of effortlessly. The perfect locations and boutique hotels. The best experiences, excursions and classes. The most romantic restaurants. Everything was organized and easily accessible in one location. Wendy was so thoughtful and proactive. Anything I asked she quickly handled and with such a positive manner. I have found my forever travel planner! She is SUPERB!

Wendy is terrific — easy to work with, knowledgeable, perceptive, and both ready with numerous well-considered recommendations and prepared to implement your ideas and plans expertly and expeditiously. It is also plain that, on a recent trip to Spain that she helped with, we greatly benefited from the relationship. For example, we were received as VIPs when checking in to our hotels, given drinks, offered (very) late check outs, and provided with what appeared to be extra hospitality and warmth. I highly recommend her.
