Luxury Travel Advisors Who Live on the Road

Hey, we are Amy & Derek. In August 2024 we sold the house, the cars and almost everything in them, and made the world our home. Now we plan the trips we would take ourselves: custom European itineraries, adults-only all-inclusive escapes, and group trips of every kind, from destination weddings to milestone birthdays. Some of them we host in person. You work directly with Amy from the first call to welcome home. We are based in the Charlotte, NC area and plan travel for clients nationwide.
