Your Luxury Travel Advisory

Ultra-luxe travel, low-stress logistics, and no compromise on great eating - pets welcome.

Plan a Trip

Planning a luxury getaway that’s truly effortless starts with the right partner. At The Detours Collection, we specialize in bespoke travel planning that puts your needs first — pet-friendly accommodations, allergy-sensitive options, and meticulously crafted itineraries that remove the stress from every step of your trip.

Why work with us

  • Personalized luxury: Every itinerary is tailored to your preferences, pace, and special requirements — not off-the-shelf packages.

  • Pet-friendly expertise: From pet-welcoming hotels and private transport to activity recommendations for pets, your whole family travels comfortably.

  • Allergy-sensitive planning: We can coordinate with properties, private chefs, and local providers to secure verified allergen-free meals and accommodations. I have these same allergies and know the stress planning creates - sharing the knowledge is my passion!

  • Time-saving service: We handle all the details — reservations, transfers, special requests, and contingency planning — so you can focus on enjoying the experience.

  • Local connections: Our vetted partners & firsthand accounts provide elevated, authentic experiences and priority access unavailable to individual travelers.

How we help

  • Full-service itineraries: Personalized day-by-day plans, private guides, and curated dining and excursion choices.

  • Partial planning: Expert recommendations and bookings for the elements you want help with.

  • Accessibility and wellness-focused options: Properties and activities selected to match mobility, dietary, and health considerations.

Let's Work Together

Learn about a Destination

We curate destination guides for the trips you’re dreaming about taking and incorporating all of your needs - from food allergies, traveling with the furry friends, and your overall travel style.

Here are examples of destination guides I’ve created from places I’ve personally traveled. Use them to see the style, depth, and practical detail we deliver—sample itineraries, pet-friendly options, allergy-sensitive recommendations, lodging and dining notes, and transportation tips. Each guide reflects firsthand experience and can be adapted into a bespoke itinerary tailored to your preferences, pet needs, and any allergy considerations.

I can curate one just for you and your travel needs!
