Eighteen summers before the kids move out and on. Eighteen summers to create core memories—the kind that last long after graduation day. Eighteen summers to open their eyes, show them the world, and help them find their place in it.
Because you only have 18 summers.
The magic of shared discovery, endless laughter, and the stories destined to become family lore.
We’re 18 Summers Travel, and we believe there’s no better way to foster lasting family connection than through immersive journeys built around you.
Because when you all step away from your day to day—away from the rushed dinners, mountains of homework, late nights at the office—that’s when the magic happens.
We’re here to help you make each summer—and season—count.
We’d love to welcome your family into the 18 Summers fold.
Your relationships to the ones you love most. Our relationships with the travel insiders that open doors to incredible opportunities all across the globe.
And—last but certainly not least—our relationship with you, our clients. We’ve been designing family travel experiences since 2012. Over the years, we’ve been lucky enough to build a business based on referrals and repeat clients. We’ve watched our families grow up and graduate from theme park trips to European rendezvous (yes, we help you plan travel experiences beyond those initial 18 summers—because no one ever grows out of an epic family trip!).
At 18 Summers Travel,
we’re all about relationships
You’re the glue that holds the family together. We’re your secret weapon for a seamless family escape.
Our goal is to give you the break you deserve—because when you’re not planning every tiny trip detail yourself, or trying to navigate a train transfer en francais while juggling two sets of tiny hands and four bags of beat-up luggage—you get to be fully present. Now that’s a refreshing change of pace. So leave it all to us.

Meet your 18 Summers Travel Advisors
Founder
With two daughters of my own, I know exactly how fast those first 18 summers go by. I founded 18 Summers Travel to help parents carve out meaningful time together in our oh-so-distracted age of endless iPhone scrolling—and I’m proud to have built strong relationships with top travel vendors who share our focus on families.
My loves? The cobblestone streets of Europe, a luxe Disney vacation, being uber organized (The Container Store is my happy place!), and taking really good care of our 18 Summers clients. I don’t want planning your family trip to feel like just another item on your overflowing to-do list. Instead, we’ll pamper you for a change—for a trip that finally feels like a real vacation
Advisor
I’m so excited to share my first-hand experience of traveling the globe with my own family with our 18 Summers clients. I’ve learned a lot along the way and can offer you plenty of guidance about the right accommodations and activities for your family—and even where to dine with a picky eater (ever tried to find a decent chicken nugget or piece of pizza in Budapest?!).
My travel passions include all types of cruising, European travel, and anywhere I can journey with my family where we can unplug and reconnect. I strongly believe there is no better investment you can make in your family than the gift of travel; the return is invaluable!
