Experience Europe Your Way
Europe isn't one destination. It's thousands of years of history, countless cultures and communities, and experiences that look different for every traveler.
Whether you're dreaming of a river cruise along the Danube, a custom itinerary through Italy, tracing your family's roots, or visiting museums you've always wanted to see, I help travelers experience Europe with confidence.
My goal is to create trips that fit your interests, your pace, and your budget, so you can spend less time worrying about logistics and more time enjoying where you are.
Custom European Travel
Not every European vacation should look the same.
I plan custom itineraries built around your interests, whether that's art, history, food, family heritage, museums, nature, rail travel, or simply wandering around beautiful neighborhoods.
Every itinerary is personalized from my experiences and relationships with local guides..
River Cruising in Europe
River cruising is one of my favorite ways to experience Europe. You unpack once while the scenery changes outside your window, docking in the heart of cities and towns that would otherwise take days to connect.
I work with many of the world's leading river cruise lines and help match travelers with the itinerary and ship that fit their travel style. Whether you're interested in history, food, active excursions, or slowing down and enjoying the journey, there's an itinerary designed with you in mind.
Beyond the classic routes, many river cruises are built around special interests, including Jewish heritage, Black history, wine and beer, holiday celebrations, art, music, and more. Finding the right itinerary is just as important as choosing the right ship.
Meaningful Travel
Some places deserve more than a quick stop on a sightseeing tour.
With a background in museum education and working at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, I help travelers explore Europe's history with context and care. For Jewish travelers, that can include meaningful opportunities to connect with centuries of history, culture, and thriving communities while recognizing the significance certain places carry.

No! One of the best things about planning a trip through a travel advisor is that your vacation can be as structured or as independent as you want it to be.

Of course! Travel isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither are budgets. I'll help you find the best experience within your comfort level, whether that's a luxury river cruise or a more budget-conscious itinerary. My goal is to recommend what's right for you, not simply what's most expensive.
