About Me…

You are not here to book a trip. You are here to make the right decision.

I am Delia, and I have been traveling since I was about 2 years old. I am a luxury travel advisor and travel writer with more than 20 years of experience designing custom trips across Europe, Africa, the Mediterranean, and beyond. I work with travelers who expect clarity, thoughtful planning, and honest guidance. Couples, families, solo travelers, and groups rely on me to turn ideas into trips that flow smoothly and feel personal.

Dream Destinations Travel exists for travelers who want trips to feel intentional, seamless, and worth the time and investment. If you value experiences over checklists, comfort over chaos, and insight over guesswork then you and I are a good match to plan your next trip together. You want to know where a destination shines, where it disappoints, and how to experience it well. This blog, will help you do exactly that.

This blog is not an influencer highlight reel. It is a planning resource. Every article on the blog is shaped by real-world travel design. I write with the same mindset I use when planning for clients. Who is this destination best for. When does it deliver the strongest experience. What details change the outcome of a trip. What most travelers overlook. What I would adjust if I were planning it again.

You will not find generic lists or surface-level inspiration here. You will find destination insights grounded in logistics, timing, accommodations, and experience quality. Travel planning has changed. Information is everywhere, real guidance is not. If you are deciding where to go next, this blog gives you context. If you are ready to plan, it gives you clarity.

Many travelers feel overwhelmed by options, conflicting advice, and glossy content that skips the hard parts. This blog bridges that gap. It helps you evaluate destinations realistically, understand trade-offs, so you can move forward with confidence.

Dream Destinations also reflects how I travel. I seek places that offer beauty without excess crowds, luxury without stiffness, and culture without rushing. I value wine regions, wellness escapes, nature-forward retreats, small ships, safaris, and destinations that reward curiosity.

Some readers use Dream Destinations as a research tool. Others reach out for full planning support. Both paths are welcome. If you want help designing a trip shaped around your priorities, travel style, and pace, you can work with me directly. If you prefer to plan on your own, use these guides to make better decisions along the way. Either way, the goal is the same. I love travel that feels considered, aligned, and memorable long after you return.

Life really is about the adventures we take and the memories we create. Whether you are a couple starting life together, exploring a dreamy romantic destination for your wedding or honeymoon, solo travelers who love to explore by themselves, or however you like to travel, I would love partnering with you to help plan those unforgettable adventures.

Sharing my personal experiences with my clients and showing you how you can travel to beautiful destinations on almost any budget is why I do this. My clients have shared how much they appreciated my personal recommendations and the pampering they enjoyed, which don’t come with booking a trip online, no matter how much research you do. Those time sensitive promotions, upgrades, perks and special treatments you get when you book travel with me, are not available to the general public and nothing beats a personal recommendation from a knowledgeable source who went before you to see what is real and what is just hype.

So whether you are traveling alone, planning a destination wedding and/or honeymoon overseas, want to travel the US, go on that long awaited cruise or tour wineries and/or castles all over the world… your journey starts with us. We plan family cruises, jaw dropping adventures, group and corporate travel, and wellness retreats. Follow us on social media (and here) for more inspiration.
