Designing Bucket List Trips with a Culinary Spin
Working with Me

After you submit the online New Traveler Inquiry Form, we will schedule a complimentary 30–45 minute discovery call to get to know each other and clarify your vision for a dream trip. During this call, I’ll ask about your hobbies, past travels, what you loved (and didn’t love) about your last vacation, and any special preferences so I can design a one-of-a-kind itinerary tailored to you. While I have a special passion for culinary travel, I also plan romance (including honeymoons and destination weddings), wellness, adventure, solo, group, family, and multigenerational trips.

Immerse Yourself in the Sights, Sounds, and Tastes of Each Destination
Savor gourmet chocolates in Brussels

A trip to Brussels isn’t complete without visiting its legendary chocolate shops, including the home of Godiva, founded in 1926. This compact, walkable “capital of chocolate” is perfect for tasting, touring, and even joining a hands-on workshop to discover your inner chocolatier. I can arrange your travel and recommend chocolate-focused classes, museums, walking tours, and the best spots to sample and buy world-class candies.

Taste cold pressed EVOO in Tuscany

Italy is a major producer of olive oil, with more than 350 olive varieties contributing to its rich, complex flavors. Tuscany’s celebrated oils blend Frantoio, Moraiolo, and Leccino olives, known for their fruity, spicy, and sweet notes.

Tuscany is a must-see on your Italy trip—imagine vineyard visits where you sip fine wine and taste fresh oil on grilled country bread, or enjoy a private driver, winery lunch, and a hands-on cooking class designed just for you. I can curate a once-in-a-lifetime culinary itinerary that you and your friends will talk about for years.

Sip a glass of champagne at a Bistro in Paris

Sipping champagne at a sidewalk café in Paris is just the beginning—imagine taking your glass to the Bar à Champagne atop the Eiffel Tower, with your lift tickets arranged in advance. From there, a day trip to northern France brings you to the Champagne region, where only locally produced sparkling wine can bear the name “Champagne,” and ancient Roman-dug caves beneath Reims now house bottles from houses like Taittinger and Ruinart. I can arrange your Eiffel Tower tickets, Champagne cave visits, and even a private driver so you can relax and savor every sip.

Let's Not Forget About Romance!

Celebrating your love for each other.

Imagine an ultra-romantic luxury honeymoon in an overwater bungalow in the Maldives, with your own private plunge pool, butler service, and gourmet breakfast in bed. Celebrate a special anniversary in paradise with a private candlelight dinner for two on a pristine Caribbean beach, where soft sand and gentle waves provide all the ambiance you need. Or enjoy a serene babymoon in Hawaii, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and deep blue waters, complete with a day of spa pampering before your precious baby arrives.

Why Work With Me?

You save precious time
Travel planning can easily eat up 10–20 hours of research, reviews, and second-guessing. I cut through the noise, sort the options, and present curated choices so you can focus on enjoying the trip instead of sifting through endless tabs.

You work with a professional
I invest in ongoing training and stay current on destinations, suppliers, tours, and travel requirements. Through my professional network and industry affiliations, I have access to up-to-date, first-hand, trusted information you simply won’t find in random online reviews or social media posts.

You get truly personalized service
Your trip is designed around you—not your neighbor, not a generic package, and not an algorithm. I take time to understand your travel style, priorities, and preferences, then tailor every detail, from where you stay to what you do and where you dine. It all begins with a discovery call to make sure your itinerary feels like the perfect fit.

You may even enjoy extra value and perks
My relationships with trusted partners often translate into added benefits for you, such as priority treatment, special offers, or thoughtful surprises like a room upgrade when available or a celebratory amenity on arrival. It’s about elevating your experience, not just booking a trip.

 

My Continued Investment in Your Dream Trip

I’m committed to staying on top of current travel trends, hot destinations, new resort openings, and supplier updates so I can confidently curate your dream trip.

I belong to several professional travel organizations—spanning food and wine travel, romance and honeymoon specialists, cruise associations, and advisor networks—which keeps me connected to insider insights and trusted partners. I’m also the preferred travel advisor for select Studio I Do Bridals in Virginia Beach, reflecting the trust they place in my service and expertise. 

Behind the scenes, I complete extensive destination, cruise, and resort training each year—from Europe and the Caribbean to Mexico, Hawaii, and small-ship adventures—so the recommendations you receive are grounded in up-to-date knowledge, not guesswork.

Client Reviews and Testimonials

Megan R.

"Mary Beth Hurrell created a memorable honeymoon for myself and my husband. After our wedding last June, we were all set to go to Mexico, which quickly had to be changed due to several storms rolling in. Our travel advisor worked quickly to change our plans last minute (literally days before our trip) and thanks to travel insurance, was able to book us three awesome accommodations between North and South Carolina, specifically Asheville and Charleston. My husband and I were able to take advantage of awesome food, beers, and the natural beauty of the mountains and beaches which created a honeymoon we will never forget. May Beth even went so far as to ensure our hotels had welcome surprises of champagne and chocolates upon our arrival, which was a very thoughtful gift. We will certainly use Mary Beth Hurrell with Luxevo vacations again and refer her to anyone!"

Huge thanks to Mary Beth Glackin Hurrell my travel agent here and Paolo Zampieri once I arrived. My bags were all transferred, fishing license ready, dinner reservations when needed and all excursions set up seamlessly! It was turn-key all we had to do us show up and have fun.
