Hello, I'm Andrea

WHEN YOU WORK WITH ME, YOU'RE GETTING A REAL TRAVEL PARTNER.

​I am the founder of Vacations by Andrea, and I don’t just plan trips… I live for them. I even rented out my home and moved into my casita so I could travel more and fully immerse myself in the experiences I design for my clients.

​

Travel has always been more than a job for me; it’s my lifestyle. From river cruises and ocean voyages to family vacations, solo adventures, and international escapes, I’ve helped hundreds of travelers plan trips they never thought were possible without feeling stressed or overwhelmed.

​

Whether you’re planning:

​

  • a European adventure

  • a once-in-a-lifetime cruise

  • a family vacation

  • or a group trip with people you love
     

I take care of the logistics, bookings, and fine details — so you can focus on making memories.

WHAT OUR
CLIENTS SAY

Andrea helped us plan the most fabulous Hawaiian adventure! Our family was celebrating two college graduations and a high school graduation, and my husband’s only request to Andrea was to make this vacation EPIC, and did she ever! From booking our flights, to booking our ocean front hotel rooms, to helping us plan our fun and fabulous excursions, our family’s trip to Maui was nothing short of spectacular thanks to Andrea’s expertise and guidance. We cannot wait to work with Andrea again for our next (even more) EPIC family adventure.
