Family travel done right — where the kids are thrilled,
the parents actually relax, and the memories last a lifetime.
About Alicia
Some people plan trips. I plan experiences you'll talk about for years. As a luxury travel advisor with Fora Travel, I specialize in crafting itineraries that go beyond the booking — handling every detail so you can simply arrive and enjoy.
From all-inclusive Caribbean escapes to family adventures in Europe and cruises all over the world, I draw on firsthand experience to match my clients with destinations that truly fit their travel style. My relationship with each hotel, resort, and tour operator means you receive amenities, upgrades, and personalized service that you simply can't get on your own.

Trips I've Planned
Family · Custom Itinerary
Three weeks, two countries, zero regrets — from Iceland's volcanic landscapes to the sun-drenched piazzas of Italy.
Couple · Romantic Escape
Their first vacation without the kids. They loved it so much, it's now an annual tradition.
Family · Island Hopping
A catamaran through the sea caves of Kleftiko, then a hands-on cooking class in Paros. This is what slowing down looks like.
Girls Trip · 50th Birthday
Three best friends. Three different states. One ship. The best way to turn 50? Together at sea.
Family · First Trip
When their two-year-old spotted his first giraffe on the safari, he gasped. That moment — that's why I do this.
Group · Senior Spring Break
90 guests. 36 rooms. One all-inclusive resort. I negotiated group rates, planned a cocktail hour, and coordinated every transfer — a send-off they'll never forget.
Investment
Whether you're planning a family vacation, a group adventure, or a corporate retreat, I handle every detail so you can focus on the journey itself. When you book through me, your rates match or beat what you find online — plus complimentary breakfast, room upgrades, and welcome amenities at partner hotels.
Package One

Package Two
$50 per travel day
planning fee · tailored per trip
How my fees work: I earn a small commission from hotels, rentals, and activity providers after you travel. The planning fee covers my time and expertise in destination research, vetting options, and managing your booking — particularly since commissions are not paid if you cancel or don't travel.
I do not book Airbnbs, as they do not offer commission. However, I work with trusted villa and rental partners like Plum Guide that offer comparable properties with the same level of care and curation.
For group and corporate travel, pricing is custom based on scope and group size. Reach out directly to discuss.
Annual Favorites
The destinations I'm sending clients to most this year — tried, tested, and personally approved.
Recent Adventures
A glimpse into the places I visit firsthand — because recommending a destination means knowing it personally.
Banyan Tree Mayakoba — Riviera Maya, Mexico
Pure joy on the resort's complimentary eco tour boat — a serene way to take in the local wildlife and the stunning mangroves that surround the property. This is the kind of experience you don't forget.
Banyan Tree Mayakoba — Riviera Maya, Mexico
The heated pool comes stocked with fun tubes for the kids — watermelon included. Even the pickiest of littles will be happy here, which means the parents can actually relax.
Pendry Baltimore — Baltimore, Maryland
Sleek, sexy, and seriously impressive — the Pendry Baltimore is the perfect backdrop for a couples getaway, a girls trip, or a solo moment just for you. I caught live jazz here during their Boozy Tea experience, and I haven't stopped talking about it since. Highly, highly recommended.
Rooftop Pool — Pendry Baltimore
Harbor views, a stunning infinity pool, and not a single thing on the agenda. Sometimes the best getaway is closer than you think.
Room Service — Pendry Baltimore
Pancakes, fresh fruit, and a courtyard view from bed. This is what mornings should look like.
Epoch Bar — Pendry Baltimore
A Maryland Epoch whiskey tasting at the bar — moody, golden, and exactly the kind of evening that makes a trip unforgettable.
Paris Christmas Markets — Paris, France
Crêpes, champagne, and the magic of a Parisian Christmas market — this is the kind of evening that makes kids beg to come back.
Croissant Baking Class — Paris, France
Nothing says Paris like making your own croissants — and that smile says it all. Experiences like this are why I love planning family travel.
The Streets of Paris — Paris, France
Three generations on a Parisian street — proof that the best trips are the ones you take with the people you love most.
A Room With a View — Paris, France
The Eiffel Tower sparkling at night from our hotel room. Some moments are better in motion.
Dinner on the Beach — Banyan Tree Mayakoba
Palm trees, fairy lights, and a Caribbean sunset — dinner doesn't get more magical than this. The kind of evening that makes the whole trip worth it.
The Pool — Banyan Tree Mayakoba
Crystal clear, beautifully landscaped, and surrounded by tropical jungle. You might never leave.
The Lantern Tree — Banyan Tree Mayakoba
The iconic lantern tree at dusk — one of those details that makes Banyan Tree Mayakoba unlike anywhere else.
A Room With a View — MSC Meraviglia
Spotting a Disney ship through your porthole on sailing day. Cruise life is waking up to a new world every morning.
Family Cruise — MSC Meraviglia
All smiles on the pool deck — there's something on board for literally every age.
