Segovia, Spain near Madrid is SPECTACULAR!

I’m blessed to have a family that loves traveling as much as I do, and we take every opportunity we can to explore the world. We’ve cruised and traveled by land, sea and rivers around Europe, and the world.  It has been wonderful traveling with both my parents and children in fascinating and beautiful destinations. 


I’ve lived in multiple states throughout the years including New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Virginia, and now Texas. I worked as a Certified Public Accountant after university, and this gave me the organizational skills to excel in travel planning.


After taking time off to raise my children, I decided to re-enter the workforce as a travel agent so I could utilize my skills to help Empty-nesters, families, honeymooners and small groups see the world. Traveling has provided my family with some of our greatest memories, and I love helping people cultivate the same great experiences abroad!


Today, I specialize in luxury vacations in Europe, Africa, the Galapagos, and beyond. I book everything from customized vacations on land with private drivers and guides,  to river cruises, luxury small ship cruises, and more. I will navigate everything for you so you don’t have to stress when planning your vacation. I can attend to all of your details, or just a few, as you wish.


I try to personally experience all of the cruises and river cruises that I work with so I know you’re getting the best. I will help you discover the perfect ship and route so you can have an incredible time. Plus, I will carefully plan your itinerary so you have time to explore each destination without feeling rushed or stressed.


I will simplify the booking process to make traveling easier than ever. I recently helped a couple travel to Europe for their first international vacation. Their kids had just left for college, and they wanted to explore Italy’s amazing culture but had no idea how to do it. I carefully planned all of the ground transportation around Italy, and created a detailed itinerary for them with customized touring and experiences, and of course, I found them lodging at wonderful hotels where they were given VIP treatment. I walked them through everything so they felt at ease before departing, and they ended up having an incredible time!


Another recent trip that I booked was a four-week European journey for a larger and diverse group. They wanted to stay in luxury hotels in seven different cities, and I planned everything to ensure they had enough time to relax and see what they wanted. I planned all of the transportation, touring, activities, and found them lovely and well-located hotels.  Even though their itinerary was complex, they got everything they wanted and more!


Some of my favorite destinations to book include:



  • Italy

  • Spain

  • Greece

  • Portugal

  • France

  • Africa


Wherever you want to go, I’m ready to make your next vacation the trip of a lifetime!

My Travel Stories

A Magical day at the Alhambra in Spain

If you were to ask me the #1 place to visit in Spain, I would have to say the Alhambra in Granada.  When we went, we had a guide bring us there early, with pre purchased tickets.  This is an important detail.  We were surprised to see that the Alhambra is not just a palace, but a walled citadel with...Read more.

Wonderful Agent
We booked our European vacation, including a river cruise and an additional week in Germany, with Diane over 1 year ago. Who knew Covid would still be so prevalent in our lives. We are in the process of rebooking and she could not be more accommodating. Diane has been there every step of the way, keeping us informed and giving us options. She has been so patient and helpful with our questions, and concerns. Diane is amazing at what she does. She truly cares about her clients. I would highly recommend her for any type of vacation plans you are considering. She is very knowledgeable and well traveled.

Trip of a lifetime!
We contacted Diane earlier this year to begin our travel plans to Italy. Diane was not only super responsive and friendly but she was also very knowledgeable in the cities we were considering in Italy. She travels frequently to several destinations each year. I think this is a huge advantage when she makes recommendations on travel plans, excursions and hotels.

We gave Diane tentative dates and cities and she was able to quickly put together several options. Everything was handled with exceptional attention to detail.

Our vacation was absolutely perfect. Every hotel check-in, train ride, flight, car service, and excursion went perfectly! Her list of preferred vendors and hotels can not be beat.

We absolutely recommend Diane's services to any one looking for the ultimate vacation experience.

The best trip of our lives!
Diane planned our first trip to Spain and we couldn't have done it without her. She was detailed, quick, and answered every question I had. She planned our whole trip, which included transportation to/from airport, train rides, hotels, and excursions. Diane was fantastic and I highly recommend her.

Above-and-beyond every step of the way
I have known Diane for over 30 years and she is one of the most elegant people I know. So, luxury travel is right up her alley. However, I put our friendship to the test and asked her to find me a "City Slickers" style cattle drive. And she did not disappoint! I am just back from my week on the range and am a better person for it. Not only did she ply her network to find the best outfitter, but she made the initial contacts and set me up with top-shelf travel insurance. 'Cause you never know what's going to happen out there. Upon my return, I thought I left my iPad in airport security and Diane committed to help me out (and I quote) "I will do whatever it takes to make it right for you on my end". She is truly the best of the best, don't think twice about contacting her.

Diane Frisch responded:
Thanks so much, Joni - I am so glad that the trip was everything you had wished for! I am glad I could work my connections to find you the best guides to put this together, and that your IPad was so quickly located! Your review means the world to me and I am truly grateful.
