Honeymoon in South Africa
Julia knocked it out of the park planning our honeymoon to South Africa. We had the perfect combination of Cape Town, The Winelands, Safari and ended at the beach, where the hotel was probably our favorite we’ve ever stayed. Julia found the best hotels and lodges, made sure the logistics were seamless, listened to our needs, and recommended places we never would have found on our own. I'm recommending her to anyone and everyone who needs a travel advisor.”
Stayed at Cape Cadogan, Mont Rochelle, Dulini Leadwood and Birkenhead House
Babymoon in the Cayman Islands
“Julia was so helpful with planning our trip, from flights to stay, and meals, she was there to help with it all! She was very helpful in picking out the right destination for us. We wanted to go somewhere with an easy flight, and she suggested the most beautiful properties. It was such a great and easy experience I am going to use her for all of our upcoming trips!”

Honeymoon in French Polynesia
“I truly could not recommend Julia with Hugg Travel Co. enough. Unfortunately we missed our flight to French Polynesia and woke up in a panic wondering how we were going to move all the amazing reservations, excursions, and hotel stays Julia had booked for us. She jumped into action so fast, seamlessly adjusting everything to align with our new flights. I truly don't think I could have rebooked and done everything without her. I can't tell you the amount of times I said, "Thank goodness we have Julia or we probably wouldn't have made our trip!" I have since recommended her to countless friends and would do so over and over again!!”

Family trip in Puglia
“We were overwhelmed trying to plan our first trip to Europe with our 2 young kids. Julia helped us navigate our options of destinations and family friendly hotels. Her communication with the hotel staff ensured we had everything we needed to feel comfortable. Our kids loved it and we were able to actually relax and enjoy the trip!”

Family trip to Japan
“This was the best trip of our lives. Coordinating logistics for all 8 of us was no easy feat, and Julia made the entire process so seamless. We had amazing guides who provided incredible cultural insights, from geisha history in Kyoto to authentic experiences at hidden gems like the Yamanashi winery and traditional Ryokan stays. Julia curated perfect hotels in ideal locations, exceptional restaurant recommendations, and unique experiences like hiking Mount Fuji, a tea ceremony, and exploring Naoshima Island's world-class art museums. Every detail was flawlessly arranged - from train schedules to museum reservations - allowing us to simply enjoy this perfect blend of cultural immersion, incredible food, stunning locations, and unforgettable experiences. We're already planning our return!”

Private rental in Punta Mita
“The trip was AMAZING. Could not recommend it more. I truly had no idea what we were getting ourselves into and it far exceeded my expectations. It was basically our own mini-luxury resort. The home was beautiful, the location was fantastic, and the pool was exceptional. The service was ridiculous - truly just perfect. They were so accommodating, thoughtful and just wonderful to have around. We're already planning our next trip back!”

Honeymoon in England and Ireland
“We cannot thank you enough for helping us with the best honeymoon anyone could ask for. We've already recommended you to family and friends and plan on using you in the future. First off- the timing at each place was just about as perfect that you can get. We didn't feel rushed or like we were spending too much time at one place. Also, the tickets for the game were incredible- was a highlight of the trip for sure. Ashford Castle- HOLY COW. This place was to die for. The room we got upgraded to was jaw dropping. Every part of this hotel experience was amazing.”
Stayed at at the Kensington, Sheen Falls Lodge and Ashford Castle
Honeymoon in Bordeaux and Cap Ferret, France
