New Trip Request

Let's Start Dreaming About Your Trip

Let’s get started!

Completing this form and scheduling a new trip consultation is the best starting place for your planning journey with me.  This form provides you the opportunity to share basic details with space for more specific ideas you may currently have for this trip you are dreaming about taking.  It will also touch on some travel personality and history to help me make recommendations more tailored to you for this trip.

What's Next?

For the most tailored experience, schedule a New Trip Consultation so we can meet to further discuss what you are looking for and dreaming about in your trip.  After that,  I will craft a proposal more fully tailored to your needs to get us started on planning your perfect trip.

And then what?

Each trip-planning journey generally follows the same flow from conception to travel. The journey isn’t always linear, and some trips start as just a vague idea while others are fully conceptualized plans when we start the planning journey together.  However, these keystone parts create the foundation for the overall trip-planning process.

Dreaming

We discuss travel goals exploring why you are traveling, where you are hoping to experience, what vacation goals you have, and how much you want to invest.  Some have clear pictures at this point, and others come into it wanting to travel but looking for inspiration.  We can do this via phone conversation, email, Zoom, or in-person.

You are here in the planning journey.

Designing

After dreaming together about your trip, I’ll begin designing a custom proposal with accommodations, transportation, and possibilities that fit your travel dreams.  We will work through any questions about the proposal features and explore other options if needed.  We can do this via phone conversation, email, Zoom, or in-person.

Tailoring

After discussing your custom-designed proposal, you will select the components that feel the most right for this trip so that I can begin placing complimentary holds.  We will work through the full financials, terms & conditions, timelines, and travel protection.  Your trip can be enhanced and personalized with additional features from booking until travel.

Confirming

Once key components such as lodging, transportation, and budgeting are determined, we will make your trip official by making deposits and confirming reservations.  You will receive a personalized app that tracks reservation confirmations, plans in action, and trip conversations.  We will continue to tailor your trip until it’s time to travel!
