I am a Swiss native - born and raised in this beautiful country, fluent in the local language, and an expert specializing in creating culinary and culturally-focused itineraries, as well as planning hiking adventures. Even though I have been a U.S. citizen for over 30 years, I still travel internationally - with my most favorite destination (other than Switzerland!) - Peru. As your advisor, I specialize in both destinations.

First, we'll focus on Peru - truly a magical destination that once you've been there you're hooked. My opportunities to experience this diverse destination run the gamut from hiking the Inca Trail and riding a horse from the Sacred Valley to Cuzco, to escorting a group of elderly travelers with mobility issues. Peru is like no place else on earth. With its culture realized mostly through its indigenous and Spanish traditions, and also defined as a country of extremes (that range from 20,000-foot peaks in the Andes to tropical rainforests of the Amazon), Peru is both lush and desert like. I want to share Peru with you! I want you, too, to experience its diversity - from feeling the spiritual and quiet beauty of Machu Picchu to exploring spectacular mountain-scapes on the world's highest rail route! What I can do best for you - because of my extensive experience and knowledge of Peru - is to match you and your interests with the right experience - ranging from non-stop active adventure to luxurious R&R - or somewhere in between. I know Peru.

And I also certainly know my native country - Switzerland, as well. I know the diversity of this small country with its unique customs, cultures, cuisine, accommodations, attractions, events and traditions. From recommending a luxurious, 5-star deluxe resort to suggesting a simple mountain hut that can be reached only on foot, I know Switzerland. And now, I look forward to arranging your adventure. Understanding that everyone has different needs, interests and expectations, I rely on my extensive knowledge to customize and curate the best itinerary to meet and exceed your expectations. Regardless of which destination we arrange first, be assured that not only will I recommend the "must see" destinations, activities, and attractions, but the off-the-beaten-path experiences and excursions that I will include in your itinerary are sure to entice you to return again and again. There truly is so much to see in both countries. I want to know whether you want an active vacation - and how you define "active," and what activities will pique your interest - depending on the time of year you travel. I look forward to making sure that I match your interests and travel style with the perfect itinerary - designed just for you!

Monika was able to get me a covid test even though two appointments fell through and it was a national holiday. She worked for me in the middle of the night. She is the best.

We have been beyond amazed at the service provided by Monika. This was our first time using a travel professional in many years and we cannot be happier with the results. I really appreciated the practical information provided about the area as well as the excursions Monika booked for us! Her patience during the planning phase was also exceptional. All in all an A+ experience!

Monika is the absolute best! As things do when you travel, we had some hiccups and were met with "relax, I'll take care of it", which she certainly did. I have zero complaints!

Monika answered most of our questions/concerns in a timely manner. The days leading up to our cruise, I felt she may have been busier as some questions were not answered and or emails were partially answered.

We were very happy with services monika provided but there was one major mistake that took is a lot of time and effort to clear up. I told monika many times that the final payment had to be on two cards. Our credit card had a limit that was close to amount of trip & so needed insurance payment on debit. She mentioned the insurance wouldn’t go through for some time and not to worry, but I said that to be safe, we would do two cards. The next day we left on a trip and I had bank notification that both charges went through on my credit card. I would not be able to check into our hotel. I was able to contact our bank and expedite payment to credit card with no fees but waited for our hotel checkin over 2 hours till things cleared. Monika apologized & said she’d ‘make it up to us. Nothing was done after to rectify.

I submitted a review earlier today and after discussing with husband, would like to change review. Our trip was perfect and monika did provide all the information & help we needed. The mix up with the credit card was an honest mistake that we were able to fix before it caused any large problems. Please disregard prior survey .

Monika and Maeghan were very friendly and helpful every step of the way. We had to cancel a trip to Italy due to Covid-19 and instead change to Cancun. Thanks!

Our trip to Mexico was planned after cancelling a trip to Italy because of Covid-19. Monika provided a detailed trip outline and Maeghan assisted with further details. Monika's recommendation for American Airlines business class was a welcome addition to our trip. It saved us many minutes during the check in procedures.
