Ideal Client
Tracy specializes in working with discerning travelers who want more than just a vacation, they’re seeking seamless, elevated, and highly personalized journeys designed around their passions, lifestyle, and travel goals. Her clients are often busy professionals, executives, families, retirees, or groups of friends who are culturally curious, see themselves as students of the world, and value expert guidance. They’re comfortable investing $15,000 or more per trip and appreciate curated details, exclusive access, and meaningful, “ungoogleable” experiences that go far beyond the typical.
Tracy creates unforgettable moments, like truffle hunting in the Tuscan countryside with a master and their dog, followed by a private lunch at a family estate. Or enjoying exclusive, after-hours access to the Louvre, led by a head curator. Or relaxing at a luxury safari camp in the Masai Mara, with a private chef preparing dinner under a sky full of stars.
Her clients love immersive, off-the-beaten-path travel, from wine barge cruises through Burgundy and small-ship Mediterranean voyages to private wildlife safaris in remote corners of Africa.
She especially enjoys working with food and wine lovers, for whom culinary discovery is the destination, whether it’s a Michelin-starred tasting menu or a rustic, home-cooked meal with a local nonna. She also designs unforgettable trips for lifestyle groups, from wine clubs and spa-goers to book clubs and gourmet travel circles, helping them explore the world together through shared passions.
Tracy works across a range of luxury travel styles, including Classic, Adventure, Wellness, Cultural, Culinary, Solo, and LGBTQ+, each trip thoughtfully crafted to be effortless, exclusive, and truly unforgettable.
