Hi! I’m Sara! I’m here to help you design extraordinary trips, unforgettable and fully personalized experiences that excite and inspire you to see the world from a new perspective. Because traveling is much more than just boarding a plane, and everyone needs a different kind of journey.
I’m Spanish, but I live in Chile with my husband and my 3 children. 17 years ago, we lived in Mexico City, then in Madrid, followed by Boston, and now (since 2019) we’re living in Santiago, Chile. So far, I’ve traveled to 46 countries (many of them multiple times) and I don’t want to stop. I once read that some people have a nomadic gene; I suspect I might have it.
I have always connected my personal life and professional career (film production for many years) with the need to plan and travel.
I am restless and passionate, efficient, detail-oriented, and adventurous. You’ll see me happy in nature, enjoying a meal with friends, biking with my family, strolling on the beach, relaxing in a nice hotel, reading a book in the shade, and pampering myself in a good spa. I take photos constantly and have music running through my veins.
For years, people asked me for advice on destinations, travel planning, data, hotels to visit, routes, and activities, and I organized trips for friends and family… so I decided to pursue it professionally, and I believe it’s my true calling. I find immense joy in thinking, researching, designing, booking, and executing each of your itineraries and experiences.
Respect is fundamental. I respect my clients, my coworkers, and the local communities I interact with. I believe that mutual respect is essential for building lasting and meaningful relationships.
Passion drives excellence. I am passionate about what I do, and that is reflected in every detail. Passion pushes me to exceed expectations and deliver experiences that truly make a difference.
The world is huge and wonderful. I like to ask questions. How can I improve this? What is my next destination? What is truly possible and what do my clients want? In other words, I love questions and value innovators.
Good ideas come from reflection. In my world, thinking is synonymous with caring. I not only care for my clients, but I also care for myself and the planet we share.
I have confidence in what I do; I handle pressure well, I am proud but never arrogant.
I aim to inspire people through extraordinary travel experiences.
My purpose drives me to create experiences that leave a lasting impact. When I talk about “people,” I’m referring to my clients, partners, and the local communities I interact with.
For clients, this means providing travel experiences that enrich their lives and create lifelong memories. For partners and local communities, it involves fostering sustainable, regenerative, and meaningful interactions, supporting local economies, preserving cultural heritage, and promoting the appreciation of diverse ways of life.
In essence, I want to make a positive and lasting difference, using travel as a true force for good.
I work to ensure that travel is a genuine positive force in the destinations where I operate and for the travelers I work with. Travel has traditionally supported local economies and advanced cultural preservation, land conservation, and ecosystem protection. Additionally, it fosters empathy, understanding, and inspires meaningful human connections, both among people and with nature.
This regenerative approach is the foundation of my vision for sustainability. I believe in the positive impact that travel can have on both local communities and travelers. I am proud to collaborate with a global network of partners who uphold high standards of social and environmental sustainability.
I collaborate with partners who prioritize a positive impact in their communities by hiring local staff with fair wages, supporting charities, and reducing their ecological footprint.
I help my clients make responsible travel decisions by offering experiences that support local initiatives and providing them with information so they can contribute to positive change during their stay.
I ensure that my corporate activities align with my sustainability goals by promoting a healthy work environment, reducing my carbon footprint, and using organic natural materials in my deliverables.
Booking flights and accommodations online is simple and quick.
But if you want to make the most of your valuable free time and enjoy an experience that truly transforms you, you need someone to help you get the most out of your trip by creating an unforgettable experience.
That’s where I come in.
I create personalized experiences by offering honest advice to ensure the best possible trip.
My passion for travel and my commitment to providing exceptional experiences make me a trusted ally.
With my experience, creativity, and connections, I can offer you access to exclusive and unforgettable adventures.
My strong alliances with local partners allow me to customize unique services that perfectly fit your needs.
I stand out for my innovative content, always exploring new ways to travel and creating unique partnerships that inspire people to see travel from a fresh perspective.
It is a personalized trip, made exclusively for you, taking into account your tastes, needs, and preferences.
Choosing a tailor-made trip means enjoying a personal experience from the very beginning, when the idea of the trip arises, to long after you return home. Your free time is valuable, so travel should be exactly what you want it to be. By opting for a personalized trip instead of a pre-set package or booking elements online, you ensure that your free time is used in the best possible way.
Sara, I want to thank you for everything you did. It was an incredible experience, your service is spectacular, and I recommend it 100%. We will definitely book our next trip with you.
Sara coordinated a perfect trip for my family. She was extremely dedicated and thorough in organizing our activities. All her tips and recommendations for places to visit were extraordinary! I highly recommend her, and we will definitely repeat the experience with her. Thank you!
Thank you so much, Sara, for organizing the type of trip we needed. Thank you for your availability and promptness, for exploring all the options, for your patience and generosity in the explanations and route changes, and for reminding us about the vaccinations! You know and enjoy the places you recommend, and it’s a pleasure to plan with someone like you... until next time!
The perfect planning for us, with a focus on details. Hotels in the heart of the cities that invited us to explore them in an organized way, achieving a balance between sightseeing, recreation, and rest. After this great experience, it’s impossible to think of a next trip without first coming to you.

Thank you, Sara, for this wonderful trip to the Dominican Republic that you designed with so much care and detail. Samaná was a real discovery. We were able to enjoy a family vacation immersed in nature. There wasn't a place we didn't fully enjoy. You know the places and the people so well. A 11 out of 10. We will definitely repeat. Thank you!
