VIEWFINDER TRAVEL DESIGNS UNIQUE, CUSTOMIZED, LIFE ENHANCING EXPERIENCES.
Let's Find Your Happy Place!
WHY USE A TRAVEL ADVISOR?
Because you can be treated to perks and personalized recommendations that online travel agencies cannot provide.
You should be out finding the fun! We will save you time and stress in finding the beautiful, off the beaten path, experiences meant for you, so you can put your efforts into enjoying your trip, and not into the logistics or planning a vacation.
WHAT IS BOUTIQUE TRAVEL?
It is travel curated to reflect your personal style and wants. Viewfinder Travel pairs your passions with our destination knowledge and connections to create customized travel experiences that cannot be replicated and will not be forgotten.
WHAT ARE BOUTIQUE HOTELS?
Boutique hotels are distinctive from chains in that they are smaller in size, have a distinct character (rooms are not all the same), have a sense of place and personalized service. Typically, boutique hotels are under 100 rooms; they reflect the culture and neighborhoods around them through intentional design and décor. Often they have a theme, such as art or culinary focused, and often have eclectic, antique or one of a kind furnishings. They are often more affordable, though this does not mean quality or service is sacrificed- on the contrary, their service is more personalized than traditional luxury hotels, less “stuffy” than some high-end facilities.

HOW IT WORKS
INQUIRE
Please provide your basic information and we will send you a trip design form (or we can chat, if easier). It will provide the information I need about your trip, your hopes, your preferences for how Viewfinder might best help, and what will make you happy!
INSPIRE
Using your input for your package of choice, I will research, review, enhance or design a trip customized to you with a variety of options. We will discuss and go through iterations as needed until we have something that feels just right and makes you excited!
ENGAGE
Once we have an itinerary in place, including any perks, I will book /reserve your hotels and activities and provide you with a detailed itinerary. Prior to departure, I will reconfirm your arrangements to make sure your trips is seamless.
ENJOY
Go enjoy yourself, find your happy place, and please let me know the highlights of your trip!
TRAVEL NETWORK
While Viewfinder's focus is on smaller, boutique experiences, as an affiliate of Fora, we can also open doors to exclusive experiences and global connections in luxury lodgings. Many of these properties in the Fora network (Four Seasons, Rosewood Elite, Hyatt Privé, and many more) provide perks such as complimentary amenities ( room upgrades, breakfast, airport transfers and spa credits).
Follow my guides here on Fora or in my Travel Recommendations section.
I created Viewfinder Travel in order to use my travel experiences to help other people engage with the beauty in this world, to immerse themselves in a destination, in the people, their art, history, food and drink.
The idea of planning a trip lights me up!
I am excited by life, by all things creative, and finding the beautiful in the every day.
I run this business with the same values I hold in life: being kind, on time, and helping people wherever I can.
(Also, ask anyone who knows me, I plan in my sleep!)
