A Bit About Me
Hi, I’m Angela — Your Modern Travel Advisor
I help busy people plan unforgettable trips across the U.S. and Europe. I founded angelaxtravel to make planning meaningful and memorable travel feel simple, not stressful.
I believe that travel is one of the most powerful ways to connect-with the world, with others, and with yourself. My itineraries blend must-see highlights with off-the-beaten-path finds, local eats, and special moments because your vacation should be more than just a checklist.
My Travel Planning Philosophy
Curated, not cookie-cutter
Every trip starts with your story- your pace, your preferences, your travel style.
Time-saving tools
From streamlined booking to mobile-friendly itineraries, I use modern planning tools to make every step seamless.
Trustworthy guidance
I only recommend hotels and experiences I’ve vetted personally or would book myself- no generic lists here.
Who I Work With
I design personalized travel for:
Families looking for ease and fun
Couples planning romantic getaways
Curious travelers seeking unique, enriching experiences
With a background in education and a knack for logistics (and a soft spot for great hotels), I bring thoughtful energy to each trip I plan. Think of me as your behind-the-scenes expert, organizing the details so you can focus on the joy of travel.
FAQs
-
Instead of spending hours researching destinations, hotels, and experiences, I curate an itinerary based on your preferences, interests, and budget. I tap into expert recommendations, exclusive insights from my network of fellow Fora advisors, and my own vetted travel experiences to create something meaningful and stress-free.
Think: hours of my time, for minutes of yours.
-
Yes! I have access to exclusive rates, upgrades, and perks you won’t find online. That means no more guesswork, wasted time, or wondering if you chose the right hotel. You’ll get added value, often at the same price or less than booking on your own.
All bookings also come with automatic price checking. So if the price drops after we book, I’ll notify you and we can cancel and rebook at the better rate!
-
That depends on your needs! I can:
Recommend and book hotels or cruises
Secure transportation, activities, and dining experiences
Curate personalized itineraries based on your travel style
Handle logistics for complex trips or simple weekend getaways
Whether it’s a quick escape or a month-long European adventure, I’m here to simplify the process and make your trip feel effortless.
-
Great news: in most cases, my services are complimentary to you.
Here’s how it works:
I’m compensated by hotels and cruise lines when you book through me—at no extra cost to you. If you book directly, that commission simply goes to the hotel or cruise line as part of their profit.What’s Included for Free?
If you already know which hotel or cruise you’d like to book, I’ll take care of the reservation details at no cost. You’ll still receive my expert support, access to exclusive perks, and personalized recommendations.
When Is There a Planning Fee?
For clients looking for more in-depth travel design, I offer customized planning services:
$200 flat planning fee for new clients who want a curated hotel look-book or personalized itinerary
$25 per travel day if you'd like me to book your day-to-day experiences and excursions
This fee covers the time and care I put into crafting a trip that’s tailored just for you.
