Luxury travel advisor in Europe
Our story

TWENTY YEARS OF MAKING MAGIC

We didn't stumble into luxury travel. We fell in love with it — one cobblestone street, one candlelit dinner, one perfectly timed sunset at a time.

MEET SAM

Samantha has been obsessed with travel for over 20 years, and she turned that obsession into a career — because someone has to be the person who actually enjoys building 47-tab spreadsheets for a group trip.

Sam's happy place is Europe. Give her a blank map of Italy, Greece, or France and she'll turn it into an itinerary so good you'll wonder why you ever tried to plan a trip yourself. But her real superpower? Herding cats — er, group trips and destination weddings. Twelve opinions on where to eat dinner? Grandma wants a nap and the bridesmaids want a beach club? Sam's got it handled, with a smile and probably a spreadsheet color-coded by vibe.

She also plans milestone celebrations, multi-generational trips, cruises, ski adventures, and pretty much anything that involves a suitcase and a sense of adventure.

At the end of the day, Sam just really loves this stuff. She'll ask you a hundred questions, listen to what actually matters to you, and build a trip that feels like it was made just for you — because it was.

When she's not plotting your next vacation, you can find her on the sand volleyball court, in the kitchen attempting something ambitious, or scouting out the best of St. Louis. Also: certified cruise enthusiast, unofficial villa expert, and lifelong believer that the best souvenir is a good story.

Expertise

WHAT WE DO BEST

Every advisor has a specialty. Ours is making the impossible feel inevitable.

Honeymoons & Romance

From the proposal to the last night of your honeymoon, we handle every detail so you can be fully present for every moment.

European Luxury

Paris, Amalfi, Santorini, Tuscany, the Swiss Alps — we know Europe the way a local does, with access that a tourist never gets.

Destination Weddings

Your wedding day deserves a backdrop as extraordinary as your love story. We coordinate every detail, from venue to farewell brunch.

Family Luxury Travel

Luxury travel isn't just for couples. We craft family experiences that create memories your kids will talk about for the rest of their lives.

Corporate Retreats

Reward your team with an experience that inspires. We design corporate retreats that blend productivity with pure indulgence.

Bucket List Trips

Safari in Kenya. Northern Lights in Iceland. The Orient Express. Whatever's on your list — we make it happen, and then some.

Our approach

THE THIRTEEN87 DIFFERENCE

Anyone can book a hotel. We build experiences.

We've been there

Every destination we recommend, we've personally experienced. No guesswork, no outsourcing — just firsthand knowledge.

We know the right people

20+ years of relationships means upgrades, amenities, and access that simply aren't available to the general public.

We sweat every detail

From your airport transfer to the flowers in your suite, nothing is left to chance. We think of everything so you don't have to.

We're with you the whole way

Before, during, and after your trip — we're a text away. Something unexpected? We handle it before you even know it happened.
