Kind Words from Beautiful Clients

After I retired last year, I decided to take over planning our family trips. Planning a 15-day full family trip to France was quite a challenge, and I could not have done it without Mackenzie’s help! She truly understood the trip from my viewpoint and helped create an experience my whole family will remember forever. Mackenzie is a gem, and I highly recommend working with her!

- Lisa R.

Mackenzie thoughtfully planned every moment of this journey with intention and care. My trek up the Rockies was often mistaken for Olympus, as she is a goddess of crafting unique and once in a lifetime experiences.

Aaron K.

Mackenzie was beyond helpful for all our wedding events. Not only did she book our whole honeymoon not missing a single detail, but she also helped tremendously with our room blocks. She is extremely helpful for all things travel and wonderful to work with. We would have been lost trying to plan all of this without her guidance. We will be using her any time we plan travel in the future! 

- Lindsay B.

In case you are wondering...

When should I reach out to begin planning my trip?

As soon as you make the decision to travel! To ensure the best results, please contact me at least 60 days prior to your trip. If your trip is within 30 days, please schedule a consultation, and in some cases, a rush fee may apply.

FAQS

Do you work with all budgets?

I specialize in crafting exceptional travel experiences, often featuring 4-star and above properties. While I'm committed to offering top-notch service to travelers with various budgets, it's essential to recognize that I may have limitations when it comes to lower-budget trips. In travel, as in life, you generally get what you pay for. 

Can you book accommodations through Airbnb or VRBO?

I can assist with booking homestays through platforms such as StayHVN and Plum Guide. However, I am unable to book homes through peer-to-peer platforms like Airbnb and VRBO, as they lack the rigorous vetting processes and 24/7 support of Fora's trusted partners. If you prefer to book with Airbnb or VRBO on your own, I'm more than happy to assist with itinerary planning and excursion recommendations at your destination. 

Do you book flights?

I don't typically handle flight bookings for clients unless it's part of an all-inclusive package. Many prefer to book flights themselves for flexibility with times, airports, and seating, or to use credit card points. While I prioritize providing efficient support, I'm not equipped to offer 24/7 assistance for flight changes or cancellations, which is an unfortunate reality in the airline industry these days. However, if you'd like flight booking assistance and access to support around the clock, I can arrange this through a trusted third-party service for a flat fee of $100 per person.

Are hotel bookings really free?

Absolutely! Hotel bookings made through me come at no extra cost, as long as the hotel offers a commission to travel advisors (which is true for the majority of hotels). What's more, when you book at one of Fora's preferred partner hotels like Marriott, IHG, Hyatt, Hilton, Rosewood, Four Seasons, Belmond, Small Luxury Hotels, and Design Hotels through me, you'll also receive exclusive VIP perks, including early check-in, late check-out, complimentary breakfast, or spa credits. Booking is not only free of charge, but also comes with additional benefits.
