Scotland: A Land of Beauty and Enchantment
Scotland is a land of enchantment, a place that holds a special place in my heart and has profoundly shaped my personal journey. It was my home, the birthplace of my son, and a constant source of inspiration with its breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and the genuine warmth of its people.
Whether you’re seeking adventure, captivated by history, or longing for a tranquil escape, Scotland offers a truly extraordinary experience. Its cities effortlessly blend medieval charm with modern vibrancy, while the Highlands beckon with their untamed beauty—endless rolling green hills, mist-shrouded mountains, and glistening lochs await around every turn.
Then there are Scotland’s iconic castles, each with its own story to tell. From the haunting ruins of Urquhart Castle overlooking the mysterious waters of Loch Ness to the regal grandeur of Stirling Castle and the timeless elegance of Balmoral, these architectural wonders offer a fascinating glimpse into Scotland’s storied past.
I’m passionate about sharing Scotland’s magic and helping craft your perfect journey to its hidden gems and unforgettable beauty.

My go-to agent!
I use Mariposa a lot and can’t recommend her enough. She is so helpful whether I’m booking travel for business or personal reasons. She’s responsive, which is great when I have last minute changes. She picks up on my preferences and steers me to the places and experiences I will enjoy. And the best part is, I never have to worry about a thing because she takes care of it all.

Family Trip to Cancun
I recently had the pleasure of working with Mariposa, to plan a family trip and I must say, she exceeded all expectations. From the very first conversation, Mariposa listened attentively to our specific needs and preferences, and took the time to understand what we were looking for in a trip.
Mariposa's attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the trip planning process. She provided us with a range of options for flights, accommodations, and activities, and worked with us to create an itinerary that perfectly suited our group's interests and budget.
Throughout the trip, Mariposa was always available to answer any questions we had and to ensure that everything was going smoothly. Her knowledge of the local area and her connections with local vendors and tour operators made the trip all the more enjoyable.
Overall, I highly recommend Mariposa as a travel agent. She is professional, knowledgeable, and has all the tools to take you trip to the next level.

The only way to see Mexico City
I was extremely happy with my interactions with Mariposa. It was a joy to speak with her as she exudes excitement for travel and my itinerary. She made key recommendations for areas to stay, cultural experiences that can't be missed, and food that changed my life. So much so that I booked a similar trip again so that I could see the few items that I wasn't able to make it to and enjoy my favorite restaurants that I couldn't simply not go back to.

Best trip ever.
We had an amazing trip to Portugal which Mariposa planned perfectly. She was excellent at helping us plan and make the most of our trip. Our flights and hotels were all carefully selected and worked really well, Including all the transfers to and from hotels and airports.
Our sightseeing trips were fun and included the best food. The tour guides were really knowledgeable and helped us explore and show us some really interesting parts of Portugal.
We would highly recommend Mariposa and hope she will help us plan many more trips.

Wonderful trip of a lifetime
From start to finish our trip to Portugal was planned with extreme care and attention to detail; keeping our wants and desires in mind.
It was so refreshing and stress free to have Mariposa take care of and handle every detail for our trip.
Life is busy and full of to do lists and job stresses. We don't need that when planning to travel over seas or anywhere. We talked to Mariposa and she listened carefully to what we wanted to do and see, and how we wanted to spend our time on this trip. She arranged every detail, every stay and every transportation needed.
The app she had us download was full of interesting information about each stop as well as our daily itinerary, suggested restaurants, sights to see and places to just go and simply take in the view and relax.
All of our transportation's were wonderfully handled and each driver was a delight to meet (the wonderful app also gave us great directions through each airport to the meeting spot of our driver).

Our Dream Vacation - South Korea and Japan
This was my first time using a travel service and it was such an amazing experience thanks to Mariposa! I had been dreaming about going to Japan for years and was finally able to make it happen with her help. She listened to what I wanted and created a wonderful itinerary full of fun and exciting activities. Her meticulous attention to detail in booking all of the accommodations, transportation, and activities allowed me to fully enjoy the trip without having to worry about anything. She provided all of the information needed and checked in to make sure everything was going well. She went above and beyond planning this amazing trip and I would highly recommend others to seek out her services for their next adventure!

Best experience ever!
Mariposa was great to work with even in the early stages of planning our trip. We gave her a list of cities and activities that wanted to do. She recommended so much from the little we provided and it was amazing. Mariposa is very knowledgeable and attentive the whole trip. All the activities and tickets were so easy to access thanks to her! Would highly recommend for a stress free and amazing trip (which I have to everyone)!
