Services

Here’s what I promise you’ll receive when you employ my services to design your next spellbinding getaway:

CAREFULLY CRAFTED DETAILS

I’ll say it loud and proud:
I am definitely a details person.

When it comes to planning your vacation, I’ll insist on fussing over the details—like lining up your transfers just right, booking you in the hotel suite with the best view, and matching you with perfect-for-you unique experiences that fit your style and spark discovery.

PERSONALIZED RECOMMENDATIONS

I not only book your travel components (everything from flights to hotels to tours) as part of my services, I share with you my insider recommendations for your destination. Why? Because it’s the experiences—the dinner you linger over at that seaside restaurant, the unbelievable view you drink in from atop the towering castle—that make your escape really worth it.

My recommendations will take you off the beaten path and into a world of curiosity wherever you go - why you need my services.

VIP TOUCHES (SERVICES)

It’s time to let go of your worries and surrender to the good life.

As part of my services, I’ll help you reconnect with your partner , bond with your family, or create new bonds with a group through luxury touches and a big dose of pampering. Thanks to my relationship with Virtuoso, an elite network of travel partners, I’m often able to offer my clients complimentary upgrades and inclusions that will make your vacation even sweeter.

How I’ll Craft Your Perfect Getaway

Step 1

Consultation Call

We’ll start with a complimentary consultation call. Where are you dreaming of jetting off to? What are you dying to experience? I’ll learn more about the kind of escape you’re after on this call—and you can get all your questions answered about my planning process as well.

Step 2

CREATE YOUR ITINERARY

After you take care of the planning fee, I’ll begin the research process, pulling all the details together in an itinerary based upon your budget, desired destination, and unique travel style. Then, we’ll refine the itinerary until it sounds exactly like the getaway you’ve been yearning for. I want you eagerly anticipating this vacation!

Step 3

GET YOU BOOKED IN

Next, comes the easy part—for you! You can relax while I take care of all the booking details, like your flight, airport transfers, boutique hotel or resort stay, tours, and even restaurant reservations. I’ll keep you in the loop with clear communication and tips on how to prepare for your trip.

Step 4

TIME TO ESCAPE

Now it’s time for you and your travel partner(s) to escape on your handcrafted getaway! I’ll be just a phone call or email away to provide support while you travel, like assisting with re-booking a canceled flight. In fact, you’ll even get access to a special app that will store all of your relevant travel info—simply message me if you need a thing!

Kind Words from Happy Clients

"We have used Cathy at Amore Travel Designs for our last 3 vacations. Each time has been a wonderful experience, she really does take care of all of the details. The process is smooth and seamless, a huge advantage over the stress of trying to book everything ourselves, and its great having an expert on hand to think of all the little things we wouldn't know about. We'll be back again next year for our next trip!"
