Rachel planned the most incredible springtime trip to Kyoto for us, and she literally thought of everything! From our very first day, we knew exactly what to do thanks to her detailed daily itinerary complete with instructions on which trains or buses to take, making navigation incredibly easy. Seeing the cherry blossoms was absolutely incredible, and we loved wandering through Nishiki Market with all its amazing food and strolling through the Gion district in the evening – it felt so traditional and special. It was such a relaxing and unforgettable experience because Rachel handled all the logistics perfectly.
Olivia - Kyoto | Japan | East and Southeast Asia
Rachel helped my partner and me plan our first big international trip to Japan, and it was seriously amazing! We went to Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, and also got to stay a night at a Hakone ryokan. Rachel was super helpful from the start, always quick to answer our questions and giving us some really good tips. She suggested a twin room instead of a double, which made a huge difference – having more space to spread out was awesome after long days of exploring.
The highlight of our trip had to be the ryokan in Hakone. We had a room with our own private outdoor tub, and it was so cool to just relax in the hot bath. The kaiseki meal was incredible too – so many different dishes, and everything tasted amazing. Rachel made planning this trip so easy, letting us just enjoy our time in Japan. If you're thinking about a trip, you should definitely talk to her!
Jess & Alex - Japan | East and Southeast Asia
My husband, Arthur, and I just returned from a glorious month-long adventure in the Philippines, all thanks to the wonderful Rachel! Our first stop was Cebu for the Sinulog Festival – what a vibrant and joyful celebration! The parades, the music, the energy of the people – it was truly something to behold. Next, we enjoyed the beautiful beaches of Boracay. Such a relaxing spot for a stroll along the white sand and watching the stunning sunsets. El Nido was next, and oh my, the scenery was simply breathtaking. Those towering limestone cliffs and the clear turquoise waters were just like the pictures, if not more beautiful in person. Finally, we ventured up to Sagada in the Mountain Province. The cool, crisp air and the stunning rice terraces were a welcome change of pace. We even explored some of the fascinating caves there. What did we love the most? It's hard to pick just one thing, but the warmth and friendliness of the Filipino people truly made our trip so special. Rachel, thank yo
Eleanor & Arthur - Philippines | East and Southeast Asia
We just got back from an amazing week in Japan, and Rachel planned the perfect trip for us! We spent most of our time in Tokyo, which is just a crazy cool city – so much to see and do. Rachel gave us some awesome tips for nightlife in Shibuya, and we had such a fun time checking out the bars and the energy there. But the highlight for us was definitely the side trip to Takayama. It was so different from Tokyo, really beautiful and traditional. Staying in a ryokan there was such a cool experience, with the tatami mats and the onsen. It felt like stepping back in time. Rachel’s recommendation for that was spot on. It was the perfect mix of the modern buzz of Tokyo and the peaceful charm of Takayama. We can't wait to go back!
