You bring the idea.
I bring the experience, the contacts, and the time it takes to do this well.
I'm a travel planner who works with couples, families, and groups taking the trips that matter. The honeymoon, the anniversary, the family week somewhere meaningful, the milestone year you've been quietly saving for.
My approach is calm, considered, and a little particular. I plan trips the way I'd plan my own, built around how you actually want the days to feel, not just where you want to go.
I'm Riviera
Hi fellow wanderer
There's no shortage of information online. Most people don't need more options, they need fewer, chosen well. That's part of what I do. I narrow, advise, pace, and book so that the trip you take is the trip you actually wanted, instead of the one that came together in the middle of the night two weeks before you leave.
A note on why this matters
I sort the options so you don't have to. I tell you the truth when something isn't the right fit. And I handle the logistics, partners, and small details that make the trip feel seamless from the moment you arrive.
How I help
When you work with me, you get more than a booking. You get someone who treats the trip the way you'd treat it yourself.

"Riviera made our honeymoon perfect. We wanted something unique but weren't sure how to make it happen, and she just delivered on every aspect. We will be using her for every booking."
Knowing what to leave out.
Most trips suffer from too much, not too little.
My best skill as a planner
A long lunch at a vineyard outside Florence that didn't appear on any list. The kind of thing I now plan around for clients.
A meal I think about often
Hotel, almost always.
But the right villa, for the right group, beats anything.
Hotel or villa?
A slow week on the Amalfi Coast in late September, when the crowds have thinned and the water is still warm.
The trip I keep recommending
A linen shirt, a paperback, and noise-cancelling headphones.
Non-negotiable.
Always in my carry-on
a. Northern Morocco
b. The Aeolian Islands
c. A long week in Provence
d. Honestly, all of them
Currently on my list
A little more about me
Honeymoons should feel slow. Family trips should leave room to breathe. Group travel should feel less like coordination and more like a gathering. The shape of the trip matters as much as the destination.
A trip should feel like itself
A right-fit property does more than house you for the week. It changes how the rest of the trip feels. I plan a lot of hotels, and I'm careful about which I send people to.
The hotel sets the tone
The best itineraries leave space. Time to linger over a long lunch, time to read in the afternoon, time for the unplanned thing you only find once you've stopped moving.
Pacing matters most
A boat from one town to the next. A reservation you'd never have found. A restaurant the locals quietly send you to. These are the parts I plan for.
A small detail can become the whole trip
