Custom European,River Cruise & Group Travel Expert

Most of us can agree that traveling means more than just going from point A to point B.  We crave the meaningful, precious experiences that lie in between, just waiting to be discovered.  

Whether you go on a fun family vacation, enjoy each other on a romantic getaway or celebrate a special occasion with your family and friends, there's no better way to make the most of these experiences than to travel and explore new destinations and cultures.

After nearly 18 years as a travel professional and nearly 11 years in the event planning industry, I am the perfect agent to create a unique itinerary just for you. I believe that there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to travel.  I don’t work for any particular cruise line or tour operator.  I am your advocate when it comes to planning every aspect of your trip.  

I will not only make your final travel arrangements but will consult you on all of your options so that you know what is available.  My knowledge, experience, and personal industry connections are at your service.  Ultimately, I want each client I work with to come back from their trip having enjoyed experiences that have truly enriched their lives.

My expertise is in crafting tailor-made immersive journeys for culturally curious travelers seeking authentic local experiences.  They have a deep appreciation for culture, history, food and wine, music, art, and more.

My clients – solo explorers, couples, families, groups of friends - are not tourists.  They are travelers.  They are not interested in generic or touristy experiences; they crave unique and personalized travel encounters.

My clients often share common interests with others or belong to affinity groups, such as women's groups, music lovers, food and wine enthusiasts, garden lovers, or history explorers.  They enjoy travelling together to fulfill their passion and share the best moments.  I curate itineraries that cater to their specific interests, including cultural immersion, unique experiences, and opportunities to connect with local communities.

In order to make this happen, I form personal and lasting relationships with travel professionals and suppliers in many destinations.  This enables me to provide my clients with the best value for their vacations, while also including hidden gems in their itineraries that will enhance the entire travel experience.

I value professional development and continue to earn certifications to learn about the latest opportunities that are available for travelers.  I love to provide my clients with personalized recommendations for tours, excursions, restaurants, and accommodations as this allows them to completely relax and enjoy their trip.

One of my favorite sayings is, "Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer."  So let me make you happier, wealthier, and wiser by taking you wherever in the world you want to go – from vacation dreams to unparalleled experiences that create lasting memories.

Amazing family cruise to Alaska
Reviewed By Maisie - West Roxbury, MA | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
It was a pleasure to work with Marina! She helped me plan my first ever cruise with my kids to Alaska and was able to navigate the differences between ships and then advised me where to stay on board that worked with my price point. She was very quick to respond to my emails and calls and offered ideas for excursions as well. She is friendly and knowledgeable and I highly recommend her for anyone with travel needs!

Amazing Honeymoon in Austria
We owe our amazing honeymoon all to Marina! Thanks to her planning expertise and tireless efforts to make our honeymoon dreams a reality, our trip to Austria was a beautiful, stress-free and fun experience of a lifetime. We didn't have to worry about transportation, choosing which sites to see and when, or which hotels to book- she figured that all out for us. She also listened to our input and went above and beyond to make our wishes work within our budget and schedule. I can't imagine what it would've been like without her help!
