Customised Itineraries & Travel Planning Services
Are you trying to plan your next trip and find it challenging to come up with the best itinerary?
Or maybe you simply don’t enjoy doing all the research?
Whichever way, I can help you with this!
My name is Pauline. I am the founder of this travel blog as well as a tour leader for an adventure tour company.
I’ve been working in the travel industry since I was 19 and have travelled to all continents.
I grew up in France, travelled around Australia for an entire year and have been living in the UK for 9 years.
I’ve also lead many tours in countries such as Cuba, Costa Rica or even Japan.
And of course I also travel a lot for myself.
So whether it’s for a group, my friends or myself, I spend a lot of time planning itineraries and activities.
And I absolutely love it! So if you need some help to plan your next trip or to review your itinerary, I’m here!
What is the travel planning service?
The travel planning service I offer consist of a customised itinerary.
It’s entirely tailored for you. I’ll include recommendations to fit your wishes and everything I think you’d like while keeping in mind the logistics and the pace.
What countries do I cover?
I specialise in the following countries:
-
- 🇫🇷 France. This is where I’m from, I’ve spent the first 23 years of my life in France which means I of course know the culture, language but can also give you insider tips, especially about the South of France.
- 🏴 England. I’ve been living in England for the last 9 years and have explored this country extensively, from London to Cornwall and my home city of Manchester.
- 🏴 Scotland. Due to its proximity and the fact that I think it’s one of the most beautiful countries in the world, I’ve explored Scotland extensively as well.
- 🏴 Wales. Once again, this is just next door and I go there very often. I absolutely love Wales and think it’s such a shame people don’t visit it more.
- 🇦🇺 Australia. I spent an entire year travelling around Australia, covering over 35,000km.
- 🇺🇸 USA. I lived in Florida for a few months and visited the US several times (Washington DC, NYC, Montana & Wyoming).
I also feel confident in providing itineraries for Spain and Italy since I visited both countries over 15 times each and know the languages and cultures very well.
Finally, I can also provide itineraries for other countries I’ve visited recently and/or as a tour leader but I want you to bear in mind the fact that I’m not as much of an expert for these.
The countries are: Cuba, Japan, Costa Rica, Peru, Portugal, Jordan and Morocco.
I can also help you put together an itinerary for a Europe trip. Although I didn’t go to all the countries in Europe, I did visit a lot of them and know this continent better than any other.
If the country you are looking for is not listed that means that I either don’t feel confident in being able to provide you the best service for this one or have never been myself and therefore don’t feel like I can provide you the same level of service as well.
If that’s something you’d like to chat about, you can always contact me but I don’t want to promise anything.
I want you to get the absolute best itinerary and if that’s not something I feel I can do for your destination, I will simply tell you.

How does it work?
Step 1: If you’d like to book, please book a slot in the calendar below. This slot will be for our initial brief.
book brief callStep 2: You will receive an email with a link to a form about your trip and yourself. Please fill out the form before our initial call because that’s what will give me enough information to understand your project.
You will also receive a payment link and an invoice. Please note that payment must be made before the brief call.
Step 3: During the brief call, I will make sure we are on the same page and I understand exactly what you want for your trip.
I want to make sure you are having the best holiday possible and that starts by knowing you enough to create the perfect itinerary for yourself (and not for myself!). This includes budget, the flow of your trip, how intense or relaxed you want it to be and more.
Step 4; After 3 to 5 working days, you’ll receive your customised itinerary and Google Maps and can book your debrief call so we can go over it and modify it if necessary.
Pricing
I offer 3 types of packages for the custom itineraries.
Please note that I can also take payments in GBP and Euros.
What is not included?
Please note that I am NOT a travel agent which means that I will NOT book anything for you.
You will receive a detailed recommended itinerary in a Google document.
This will include recommendations for accommodation and activities but I won’t be booking any of these.
You are free to follow these recommendations or not but no matter what, the booking part is up to you.
Please note that I also won’t book flights, travel insurance or provide any advice on visa.
