Mandy Horn
Personalized Luxury Travel Advisor & Blogger
I am a designer at heart. I love taking chaotic details and distilling them down to organized, beautiful, personal experiences for others. I edit and organize travel choices into trips that fit my clients and how they want to experience the world. I combine that with expert advice that keeps unpleasant surprises and stress at bay.
I call this traveling smart. I save my clients time, hassle, money, and often from misleading resort pictures on the internet.
Having grown up globetrotting with a large (and slightly crazy but ever-so-loveable) extended family, I am particularly passionate about group and multi-generational travel. I think the world is best savored when shared and remembered with others. Travel brings people together.
I have…
• Helped a group travel to Southwestern China and experience everything from authentic cuisine to riding a yak.
• Built lifetime memories for my clients around hot air balloon rides over French Champagne fields, Hot Springs in Japan neighboring Mt. Fuji, birthday celebrations on private Dubai yachts, surprise proposals on the top of Table Mountain in Capetown, floating through the national forests of Indonesia for orangutan spotting, and elephant encounters in Thailand.
• Walked many first-time Disney-goers through the planning process to make Disney easy and magical. (You didn’t know there was a planning process for Disney? We need to talk.)
• Found the perfect balance of exotic beach and once-in-a-lifetime adventures for anniversaries, milestones, and honeymooners.
•Built lifetime memories around hot air balloon rides over French Champagne fields, Hot Springs in Japan neighboring Mt. Fuji, birthday celebrations on private Dubai yachts, surprise proposals on the top of Table Mountain in Capetown, floating through the national forests of Indonesia for animal encounters, and elephant encounters in Thailand.
• Personally traveled all over the US (including Alaska), the Caribbean, St. Lucia, Jamaica, Mexico, Canada, Peru, Chile, Australia, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Great Britain, South Korea, Hong Kong, China, and a whole lot of Disney. I aim to grow the list.
I look forward to helping you travel smart and travel well.
Helping Others Get Home
One of my favorite things about travel is its ability to give back. I believe that travel has enriched my life and I should return the favor. Part of the proceeds from my work goes toward refugee, orphan care and adoption worldwide. I believe in helping my clients get home to the places they love and using that to help others have forever homes.
