MY PASSION FOR TRAVEL & A LIFETIME OF EXPERIENCES
Travel planning has always been more than just a passion for me. I love discovering new destinations, exploring places beyond the obvious highlights, and finding those special experiences that make a journey truly memorable.
I’m naturally curious. I want to explore every corner, understand the character of a place, discover its hidden gems, and experience it beyond the typical tourist route. My friends and family often call me a little crazy for how much I manage to explore – but it’s exactly this curiosity that allows me to share personal insights and honest recommendations with my clients.
Over the past decade, I’ve turned this passion into a profession. I’ve worked in travel planning and as a tour manager, guiding American and Canadian travel groups across Europe. Spending so much time on the road has taught me what travelers really need, what makes a journey run smoothly, and how much the little details can influence an experience.
The Alps, however, have always held a particularly special place in my heart. Having made this beautiful region my home, I spend my time exploring Switzerland, the Dolomites, and Austria – hiking mountain trails, discovering scenic routes, visiting charming villages, and finding places I can’t wait to share with others.
Today, I bring all these experiences together through my personalized travel planning services. Whether you’re dreaming of an unforgettable Alpine escape or exploring another corner of Europe, I’ll share my firsthand knowledge, practical advice, and honest recommendations to help you make the most of your time.
My goal is to take the overwhelm out of planning, save you countless hours of research, and help you feel confident and excited about the adventure ahead.
Because the best journeys aren’t simply about where you go. They’re about everything you experience along the way.
And I’d love to help you discover yours.
REAL TRIPS. REAL EXPERIENCES. WORDS FROM MY CLIENTS.
Every journey is personal, and so is the experience of planning it. I’m grateful to have helped travelers bring their ideas together, discover new possibilities, and feel more confident about their adventures.
But don’t just take my word for it. Here’s what some of the people I’ve had the pleasure of helping have to say about their experience.
Beyond the Guidebooks: Exceptional, Personalised Travel Advice
Nicoletta helped me plan my family trip to the South of France and Catalunya in incredible detail. She is exactly the kind of person who sees beyond the ordinary, has a wonderful understanding of your needs, and offers extraordinary recommendations – nothing generic, and far better than anything you’d find in a Lonely Planet guidebook.
After planning with her, I feel confident that our trip will be truly special and perfectly tailored to our expectations.
Exactly What We Needed!
Thank you so much, Nicoletta! Your notes are incredibly informative and exactly what I needed. Your passion for travel really shines through! Wishing you all the best!
Expert Hiking Advice for Our Dolomites Adventure
Thank you so much for the detailed information and wonderful hiking advice! Your suggestions sound fantastic, and we’re already excited about following the route you’ve recommended. We really appreciate your knowledge and thoughtful guidance!
Personalized Local Insights That Made Our Slovakia Trip Unforgettable
Nika planned our entire trip to Slovakia, and thanks to her, we felt completely confident travelling and exploring independently in a foreign country, even without knowing the local language.
She went above and beyond, providing wonderful recommendations for hotels, restaurants, routes activities, nature wonders, historical facts & language sheets. Her specific hiking advice, tips on mountain huts and recommendations for traditional shepherds’ villages made our trip truly special. She helped us discover hidden corners of Slovakia that we would never have found on our own.
Thank you, Nika, for making our trip such a memorable experience!
Swiss Ski Trip, Planned by Someone Who Knows the Mountains
Mind-blowing! Nicoletta helped us plan our entire ski trip to Switzerland. She is incredibly passionate, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and her love for the places she recommends really shines through.
She didn’t just guide us through the ins and outs of skiing in Switzerland; based on her own experience of skiing across different Swiss regions and exploring their slopes firsthand, she shared invaluable insider tips on where to ski, which resorts were truly worth visiting and what we could skip.
Her first-hand knowledge and thoughtful recommendations made an enormous difference to our trip. Her planning services are incredibly valuable, and we would highly recommend booking a session with her to anyone looking to create a truly unforgettable holiday!
