When a couple came to Emerald Atlas to plan their 15th wedding anniversary in Italy, they already had a seven-day itinerary from an Italian vacation planner. It was a beautiful starting point, but there were several things they wanted to change — including better-rated accommodations, sea views, more private experiences, and a little more time to enjoy Italy without feeling rushed.

I took their original itinerary and completely personalized it around what they actually wanted from their anniversary trip.

Using my own experience traveling through Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast, I was able to identify better and more convenient accommodations, add sea-view rooms and private boat excursions, and build in additional experiences that made the itinerary feel much more special and personal.

But we didn't stop there.

Instead of seven days, I was able to extend their trip to 10 days — giving them three additional days to experience Italy at a more relaxed pace.

And even with the extra three days, upgraded accommodations, additional private experiences, and enhanced itinerary, Emerald Atlas saved them approximately $3,000 compared to the original seven-day itinerary from the Italian vacation planner.

This is what personalized travel planning looks like.

More time. Better accommodations. More of the experiences you actually want. And, when possible, significant savings.

At Emerald Atlas, I don't believe in simply booking what's already been put together. I believe in looking at the entire trip through my clients' eyes, using my destination experience and industry knowledge to make it better — and making every dollar count.

Because your anniversary deserves more than an itinerary. It deserves a trip that feels like it was created just for you.
