Luxury travel planning

Travel that begins and ends with you

Time is your most valuable asset, and we believe that asset should be maximized through travel. From taking the load of detailed planning off your plate during the design process to carefully orchestrating awestruck moments in-destination, ur team of advisors ensures every element is considered in advance.

Our clients come to us to ensure that every decision — where to stay, how to move, what to prioritize — has already been thoughtfully made. We take on the research, coordination, and refinement so that your time is spent experiencing rather than organizing.

This process begins with getting to know you. Every single one of our clients brings a different set of needs, preferences, and desires to their travel. We get to know you, so that we can build every journey back from how you like to travel. That includes the pace of your days, the level of structure you prefer, and the details that shape how the experience actually feels once you arrive.

Through longstanding relationships, firsthand knowledge, and careful attention to detail, we elevate even the most straightforward travel. The result is a journey that feels seamless, personalized, and extraordinary from beginning to end.

why work with travel with awestruck 

Some journeys are defined not just by where you go, but by how much it takes to get there:  multiple regions, shifting environments, and logistics that need to align with precision. What appears seamless on the surface is often anything but behind the scenes.

At Travel with Awestruck, we design complex, multi-layered travel that moves with intention. Every transition is considered, every detail aligned, and every decision made in advance to create experiences that feel simply exceptional, no matter the logistics operating behind the scenes.

Our clients choose Travel with Awestruck because we deliver:

seamless coordination at every step

From flights and hotels to dinner reservations and special surprises along the way, our advisors plan every detail in advance to ensure that your travel feels easy, no matter the complexity of the trip. 

We work behind the scenes at each stage of the planning process and support during your time in-destination, so all you need to do is enjoy.

personalization-first planning

We pride ourselves on maintaining decades-long relationships with our travelers. Whether it is our first consultation or our fiftieth, we focus on getting to know you: your preferences, your needs, your style, and your vision for each individually journey. 

Then, we combine that deep understanding of you with our deep expertise in global destinations to design  an itinerary perfectly curated to exceed your expectations.

Global relationships that elevate

We’ve built longstanding relationships with leading hotels, villas, and experience partners in destinations around the world.

From preferred rates and added amenities to priority access and thoughtful touches, these relationships enhance the experience in ways that aren’t always visible, but are always felt by our clients.

flow-first design

Most travel planning focuses on what you’ll do. We focus on how each day will feel once you’re there, the pace of your mornings, the transitions between experiences, and the space to enjoy where you are.

We consider not just the individual elements of a trip, but how they connect, ensuring that your time flows naturally rather than feeling scheduled or fragmented.

We have just returned from the most perfect Caribbean getaway, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Jenene and her wonderful team at Travel With Awestruck! From planning and looking at options of resorts, to preparing us for international travel, they were quick and responsive to our needs. The team outlines every detail in the most perfect itinerary and ensures every aspect of our holiday goes seamless! They were even able to pull some strings and get us a room upgrade! We have used Travel With Awestruck in the past and wouldn’t choose anyone else. Amazing service, great advice and we are looking forward to booking with Jenene and team for our next adventure!

What Travel with awestruck advisors do

Exceptional leisure travel is rarely defined by a single decision. It's the result of many small decisions made well, and in relation to one another.

Our role is to bring clarity to that process. We guide where it matters, help you where it elevates the experience, and handle the details that would otherwise take your time and attention away from experiencing the trip to its fullest.

Rather than approaching travel as a series of bookings, we design each journey as a cohesive whole in which accommodations, pacing, logistics, and experiences are considered together from the outset.

Our advisors manage:
  • Designing custom itineraries shaped around your travel style and preferences
  • Recommending hotels, villas, and destinations aligned with how you like to travel
  • Coordinating flights and arrival logistics
  • Arranging private transfers and seamless ground transportation
  • Securing preferred partner amenities and upgrades where available
  • Curating select experiences and reservations
  • Managing reservations, confirmations, and travel documentation
  • Providing support before and throughout your journey

The LEISURE travel planning process

A calm, guided experience, thoughtfully designed from first conversation to final departure

We begin by understanding how you like to travel: your pace, preferences, and what you value most in your time away. This discussion shapes each step that follows.

01. discover

We curate destinations, accommodations, and experiences that align with your style, building an itinerary that feels cohesive without over-structuring.

02. design

We review the initial proposal with you, then adjust the details together until the journey feels balanced and aligned to your vision.

03. refine

You move through your journey with ease, with every detail handled in advance and support available whenever needed.

04. enjoy

journeys we design often

Luxury leisure travel is less about how much you do, and more about how well your time is spent. From iconic destinations to quieter escapes, each journey is shaped around your preferences  to strike the right balance of structure, flexibility, and thoughtful detail.

A few of our favorite leisure journeys:

mexico and caribbean escapes

Beachfront resorts, private villas, and effortless access make these destinations ideal for shorter, high-impact getaways. We focus on the right property, the right setting, and a pace that allows you to fully disconnect.

Easy to reach, hard to leave

amafli and beyond

The Amalfi Coast, Capri, and regions just beyond are best connected through carefully chosen stays and thoughtful pacing. We design around the destination’s rhythm, avoiding the feeling of being over-scheduled (and over-touristed).

Familiar, approached with intention

Spain & Portugal

Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, and the Algarve come together in a journey defined by food, culture, and contrast. Timing and routing are designed to keep the experience fluid across regions and borders.

Culture, coastline, and connection at every step

luxury cruising

Ocean, river, and expedition cruising, selected based on how you prefer to travel. We guide ship selection, accommodations, and pre- and post-journey design to ensure the experience feels cohesive from start to finish.

Travel that moves you and moves with you

thailand

Beach, culture, and hospitality layered into a journey that balances energy and ease. From Bangkok to the Andaman islands and beyond, each step is designed to feel seamless and well-paced, even in some of the world's most bustling enclaves.

Vibrant but exceptionally grounded

Inspiration is only the beginning. The most meaningful journeys are personally designed, not selected from a menu.

greece and its isles

From Athens and Mykonos to mountains and quieter islands beyond, we connect the birthplace of civilization across journeys that balance energy, scenery, and time to unwind.

Island travel, done untraditionally

Frequently asked questions

Luxury leisure travel focuses on thoughtfully designed, seamless journeys that prioritize comfort, pace, and experience. Rather than overloading an itinerary, we ensure each element is aligned to create a cohesive and enjoyable experience.

What is luxury leisure travel?

No. Many of our clients come to us for more straightforward travel, from all-inclusive escapes to countryside villas. The difference is not the complexity of the trip, but the level of thought, access, and execution behind it.

do you only plan complex or multi-destination trips?

Yes. We recommend and secure accommodations that align with your preferences, often with preferred partner amenities such as upgrades, credits, and added benefits. Our advisors travel frequently and are constantly vetting new hotel and resort partners to ensure priority access and unfiltered firsthand knowledge for our clients.

Can you help with hotel recommendations and reservations?

Yes. We coordinate flights, private transfers, and arrival logistics to ensure your journey feels smooth from departure to return. In addition to commercial flights, we also have significant private aviation capabilities and expertise to support at every phase of the process, from evaluating commercial vs private routing options to sourcing aircraft and managing logistics. 

Do you handle flights?

Yes. We remain available throughout your trip and work with trusted partners on the ground to assist with any adjustments or needs that arise during your trip.

Do you provide any support while we are traveling?

Absolutely. We design with intention, but always allow space for flexibility so your time feels natural rather than scheduled. In your initial consultation, we'll also discuss how much time at leisure you typically enjoy when you travel. Some of our clients prefer to have a detailed pre-planned schedule, while others prefer much more spontaneity. We get to know you first to identify your ideal balance. 

will we still have flexibility in our itinerary?

We typically recommend beginning at least six to nine months in advance, especially for multi-destination travel, remote regions, or journeys that involve limited-availability accommodations or experiences. 

How far in advance should we begin planning?

No. Those journeys are simply illustrative. Every itinerary we design is built from the ground up based on your priorities, preferences, and the scope of travel. 

do you only design trips like the examples shown above?
