Nothing like the experience of being on safari!
I am a luxury travel advisor with 10 years of experience creating personalized, memorable travel experiences for my clients. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a degree in Business Management, and over the years I have developed a versatile client base while planning a wide variety of travel experiences around the world. My expertise is centered around three specialties: milestone travel, bespoke safaris, and travel for professional athletes and entertainment figures.
I love helping clients celebrate life's biggest moments, whether that's a honeymoon in Italy, Greece, or Thailand, a bucket-list safari in Africa, or a luxury escape to Hawaii or Mexico.
After experiencing Kenya with Micato Safaris, I developed a passion for crafting unforgettable safari adventures that blend exceptional wildlife experiences with seamless logistics.
I also manage both business and leisure travel for high-profile clients and professional sports players, coordinating everything from private villas and aircraft to last-minute itineraries with discretion and precision.
No matter the destination or type of travel, my goal is simple: to create thoughtful, effortless and exceptional travel experiences.

Julia helped planned the most magical honeymoon for us!
Planning a honeymoon can feel overwhelming (especially while destination wedding planning!), but Julia turned the entire process into such a fun, joyful experience and gave us a vacation we will cherish forever!! She designed the most beautiful journey through Milos, Paros, and Santorini, finding the perfect balance between absolute relaxation and incredible adventure! She took care of every single piece of logistics, working with local concierges to coordinate seamless ferry rides, smooth car transfers from the airport or ferry ports, scheduled rental cars and ATV rides, and found us so many options for beautiful hotels!
Having everything organized right on an app made our entire trip feel completely stress free, and we got to just wake up and see what we were doing each day! We got to fully immerse ourselves in all that Greece had to offer from cooking classes, pottery workshops, private boat trips, and exploring the sweetest local spots she recommended. Julia puts so much heart, love, and genuine care into everything she does, and it shined through in every moment of the trip!! She turned our honeymoon into pure magic, and we are forever thankful for the memories she helped us create.

A trip of a lifetime!
I brought my family and dear friends on a private Safari - we were a group of nine people ages 36 to 80. Every single one of us had the most extraordinary experience that was, in many ways, life changing. The actual safari and the choices of where we went and what we saw was breath taking. But the best part of the trip was SHARING the natural beauty and wildlife with my family in a perfectly curated vacation. Every detail - from the moment we woke up til we were escorted under the starry skies back to our lodgings- was easy, comfortable and very personalized. I attribute much of the success of our trip to ALL of the attention to detail that Julia Capanna paid as we planned it together for the almost nine months preceeding the trip. Julia was a partner in the best way - advising, informing, surprising, helping each one of us with our individual needs. We had various birthdays, memorials and anniversaries - each one celebrated or honored in unbelievably wonderful ways - thanks to Julia and also to Micato guide, Rodgers, whom we all adored. From yoga outdoors to a tree planting in memory of my mother who passed this year to celebrating the Jewish Sabbath, each one of us felt as if the entire Micato staff was dedicated to enriching our every experience. I cannot say enough about how wonderful this trip was. Thank you, Julia, and thank you Micato!

Honeymoon of a Lifetime
We had an outstanding experience working with Julia Capanna at Altour to plan our honeymoon. From the very beginning, Julia took the time to understand the type of trip we envisioned and curated an itinerary that exceeded our expectations.
She recommended two incredible properties—Villa Marie in St. Tropez and Lefay Resort & SPA Dolomiti in Pinzolo, Italy—which were both exceptional and perfectly matched what we were looking for. Beyond the hotel recommendations, Julia provided fantastic restaurant suggestions and unforgettable experiences that made our honeymoon feel truly personalized.
Throughout the planning process, Julia was incredibly responsive, organized, and detail-oriented. She coordinated every aspect of our travel seamlessly, giving us complete confidence that everything was taken care of before we left. During the trip, everything went exactly as planned, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy every moment.
If you're looking for a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and highly professional travel advisor, we can't recommend Julia Capanna at Altour highly enough. Her expertise, attention to detail, and genuine care made our honeymoon an unforgettable experience. We look forward to working with her again for future travels.

Simply THE BEST!
Julia has officially become our go-to advisor for every major journey we take. After she perfectly coordinated a three-week trip to Thailand for us, we knew we wouldn't trust anyone else to handle our three-week wedding and honeymoon in Italy. She truly understands our preference for personalized, high-end experiences, from arranging private boat cruises and luxury transportation for parasailing to scouting the perfect mountain wellness retreats. Julia takes the massive weight of research and logistics off our shoulders, and her enthusiasm is infectious, every planning call leaves us more excited than the last. Whether she is managing complex travel for our large group of family and friends or tailoring a private itinerary just for us, she handles everything with total precision. If you want a professional who combines luxury expertise with a genuine personal touch, Julia is the best in the business. We are already looking forward to our next adventure with her!

The Italian Wedding and Honeymoon of my Dreams!
Working with Julia was the best decision we made for our wedding journey. After an incredible trip to Thailand the previous summer, we knew we wouldn't trust anyone else with this milestone. While she is a travel advisor by title, her care and expertise made her the true backbone of our entire experience. When we first brought the idea of an Italy wedding to her, she helped us navigate exactly what that would look like, meticulously researching venues and leading us to the breathtaking Villa Arcadio in Lake Garda. While she wasn't our "wedding planner," she was the essential bridge, coordinating flawlessly with the Villa staff to ensure our foundation was perfect. As a "Type A" bride and planner, I had endless questions and a specific vision, Julia met every inquiry with the utmost patience and enthusiasm. She went above and beyond on every detail regarding meals, transport, and logistics. Her constant communication and attentiveness to the "weight" of this event gave me total peace of mind. Moving a large group is daunting, but Julia handled travel for most of our family and our 50 guests with precision. She was a primary point of contact, ensuring our loved ones were taken care of and even coordinating most of their pre- and post-travel plans! The magic continued long after the ceremony, as Julia curated a flawless honeymoon through the Dolomites, Matera, and Puglia. She even turned a 24-hour layover in Paris into a highlight, coordinating a private city tour and rooftop dinner that made our final night feel significant. Julia manages high-stakes logistics with a rare personal touch, she was so sweet, even leaving personalized "Congratulations" notes at each hotel. She turned a crazy international event into the most stress-free time of our lives. We can’t wait to plan our next trip!!!

Made vacations 100x better!!
Working with Julia has made such a difference in how we travel. She really understands what we’re looking for and consistently nails the details—from choosing the right hotels in the best areas across Europe to finding great options for quick California getaways.
She makes the whole process feel easy. She’s always available for questions, quick pivots, or restaurant reccs, which takes a lot of the stress out of planning.
Everything just feels more seamless and elevated when she’s involved—we wouldn’t plan a trip without her!!
