WorldWideyedWes
Lives in St. Petersburg, FL, USA
With decades of traveling under my belt, I am the ultimate travel expert you can trust to plan your next incredible journey. I had my first flight at a day old in Germany, and ever since, I've had a lifelong love affair with exploration, wandering through 3 continents and 18 countries (and counting!). After honing my organization and trip planning skills during a whirlwind 6-year period where I barely spent more than 4 days in one place, I've become a master of maximizing every minute of travel. My insider knowledge of booking flights, hotels, transportation, and more is unparalleled, allowing me to create seamless, stress-free itineraries tailored to your travel style. But I'm more than just a savvy planner - I'm a passionate storyteller with a knack for finding those special, serendipitous moments that transform a trip into an unforgettable experience. With my Wide-Eyed perspective, I'll inspire you to step out of your comfort zone and embrace the unknown, whether you're trekking through exotic locales or simply discovering domestic hidden gems. Behind my infectious enthusiasm lies a wealth of real-world expertise. As the son of a truck driver and a nephew of a seasoned travel agent, I grew up immersed in the world of transportation and tourism. My own decade-plus of globetrotting has equipped me with the skills to navigate any travel challenge, from visa requirements to loyalty program optimization. And with a persistent herniated disk and a recent pericarditis diagnosis, I've learned to travel mindfully, offering sage advice for managing health and mobility concerns on the road. Whether you're an experienced jetsetter or a budding explorer, I'm your trusted guide to unlocking the world's most incredible destinations. Let me craft your next unforgettable adventure - your only job is to pack your bags and keep those eyes wide open!

Lives in Saugatuck, MI, USA
Take your travel advice from someone who has lived there 👀 When I started traveling full-time, I learned very quickly that travel burnout is real and changing destinations every couple of days or even weeks was really not for me. I quickly pivoted to slow travel and now spend 1-3 months in each destination I visit. Spending more time in fewer locations means I am able to truly immerse myself into local culture and connect with the community on a deeper level... And it also means I can provide the best travel recommendations! Through my own in-depth experience and tapping into knowledge of the locals I meet along the way, I'm able to provide high quality travel tips to help you make the best out of your trip! I specialize in USA Travel, where I've explored 46/50 states extensively (with plans to reach all 50 by the end of 2025). I am a proud Michigan native and will never pass up the opportunity to introduce more people to it's beauty! My work has been featured on tourism boards such as UP Travel (MI), Saugautck/Douglas (MI), TN Vacation (TN), Visit Kentucky (KY), and more. While I specialize in USA Travel, I also love sharing my international adventures. Most recently, I spent one month chasing the Northern Lights in Norway and have also traveled extensively through Europe and Central America. Check out my guides for all the insider tips you need to top destinations, or contact me to help craft your perfect trip!

Adventure with Anna
New Pro
Lives in Rochester, NY, USA
Hi! I am Anna a Rochester, NY based travel planner. I am here to help you with every step of your next vacation. I can help you plan a luxury vacation without that luxury price tag! I work full time as a Events Coordinator and am incredibly passionate about planning and travel. I want to see as many countries and cities as I can and hope to help you get away too. My passion for travel began in 2019 when I lived abroad in Florence, Italy for a year. Because of this experience, I have since been to 19 countries and visited many cities in them! My favorite will always be Florence, but Copenhagen, Denmark and Ljubljana, Slovenia are close seconds! I specialize in travels to Italy, UK, France and love to plan trips to smaller, less traveled countries and cities! Outside of travel and my day job I love to read (anything fantasy) and I spend time cooking and working out with my boyfriend. I am also an avid plant enthusiast and have over 80 plants in my 2 bedroom apartment (much to the dismay of my boyfriend). In the past 3 years I have booked several vacations for clients. The two I consider my greatest achievements were both international adventures. One was for 40 days, 4 people across 9 countries. This trip cost each person less than $6,000 each and they got to experience so many different foods, stays, activities and places! The second was a 14 day, 11 person trip across 2 countries and 4 cities. This trip was more luxurious, however, the family that worked with me saved $30,000 compared to working with a different travel agent. Both trips highlight my ability to plan different kinds of vacations, while keeping your budget in mind. Make sure to click "Hire Me" to browse the different services I offer: 🗺️ Custom Itineraries: Tailor-made travel itineraries built for you. 📌 Curated Recommendations: Discover hidden gems and local favorites. 📞 1:1 Consultation Calls: Expert advice just a call away.

Schedule your free consultation, shoot me an email, or DM me @maggiedanielli on Instagram — and let’s plan that next trip together.

Her recommendations were exactly what we needed and planning our honeymoon with her was a breeze. She was very professional and handled everything quickly and efficiently. We will definitely be booking our future travel through her!” — Peter M. “Maggie was fantastic with offering multiple suggestions, various price levels and locations, with detailed reasons for all the lodging she had gathered for me. She was extremely helpful and flexible with tailoring all the wants and activities I wanted my vacation to be from sightseeing, playing golf, grabbing a refreshing drink, relaxing poolside, and seeing friends and family. Maggie was always timely with a response and really did a fantastic job in planning my trip. I know that Maggie is the quintessential traveler, and it shows in her ability to help plan and achieve the vision that people have when they find a great travel advisor to maximize their journeys.” — Pat N.
