I know that sometimes, you don't need someone to plan your whole trip, but you are just looking for someone to do some of the digging and research for you. That is EXACTLY what I am here to help do for you!
Immersive, authentic travel is my jam! I love digging deep to find your things that you can't find on every "Top _____ things to do in __________" list on the internet. I look for the places and experiences that will really give you a deeper perspective of the place that you are visiting. I love finding hidden gems!
I specialize in family travel (my kids are 8 and 10 as of this writing) and so I understand the types of experiences and sights are a good fit for families at various ages and stages. I love seeing how travel expands my own kids' perspective. I would be honored to research activities and experiences in your chosen destination that will create lifelong memories that your family will cherish.
Please tell me in the questions below a little about the type of experiences you want to have on your trip. Please note if you have a particular interest in a specific area (food tours, family activities, history, outdoor adventures, etc)
I also need to know if there are certain types of experiences that you do or do not want recommendations about (for instance, perhaps you already have your hotels set up, so you only want recommendations about activities and restaurants)
Please feel free to email me at Shanna@travelwithshanna.com if you have any questions before you get started! I am happy to help.

ABOUT
Hey! I am Shanna. I am a family travel expert who has been to over 45 countries, and I can't wait to help you plan an enriching, life changing trip with your kids!
It is easy to plan a pretty trip with lots of fun stops and neat things to see (heck, AI can even do this for us now). Why should you work with me? The difference is that I have been an ACTUAL travel agent in real life.
It is really easy put together all sorts of fun things on an itinerary on paper, but being responsible for creating dozens upon dozens of trips for families that actually happened and worked gives me a whole different level of expertise that most of the folks on this site don't have.
It means that I am only going to put reputable suppliers into your itinerary that I KNOW will give you the experience that you are looking for. It means that I am going to look at your itinerary from a bird's eye perspective, looking for friction points or possible problems. It means that I feel a higher level of RESPONSIBILITY for making sure your trip goes as planned.
Travel experience is irreplaceable, but it is also SUBJECTIVE. Having been a travel agent means that I combine my extensive travel knowledge WITH hundreds of hours of actual education about destinations.
I have spent over 25 years of my life in the travel industry, including time in the hospitality/hotel world, the airline world and also as a travel agent.
Having visited over 45 countries, I truly believe that travel changes lives. It has given our kids a deeper perspective on the world. Travel has made them flexible and adaptable. It has opened their hearts to other cultures and shown them that our actions truly have global consequences. THIS is my why.
As a family, we seek out immersive, authentic travel experiences that enrich our lives, deepen our understanding and help us create lifelong family memories. Life is so busy. I love helping families make uninterrupted time to be together creating those memories.

Questions
Can I book more than one travel creator at the same time?
Yes! In fact, many of our customers book multiple travel creators for help with various aspects of their trip. For example, you can have a consultation call with one creator, but then book another to plan and organize your itinerary.
