We had a 15-day European Family of 5 vacation. After planning the 1st part, I found the latter part overwhelming - especially accommodations for 5 adults.
I contacted Steph McNeil, told her our timing, where we wanted to go, what we wanted to see between 4/5 major cities, and most importantly a budget.
After an initial consultation about my family, Steph put together an amazing agenda with great places to stay in all the cities. And all was within our budget.
The very detailed itinerary came with timing, tips with taxis, trains, airports, what else to see, what else to do, etc.!
Our family had the "best experience possible!" We had such a great time, Steph answered me when I had questions during our trip and also helped us retrieve a valuable piece of jewelry we left behind in Paris!
I will recommend Steph to anyone, especially for Europe and will be a repeat customer!!
Very grateful and big thank you Steph!!

I just want to thank you for planning the most wonderful trip for us! Everything was just perfect. We loved all of the hotels, rooms were so nice, views were wonderful, staff were so friendly and helpful. And all of the excursions were planned to the last detail and explained so well in the itinerary. We loved the chocolate making class, and the journey to Mt Pilatus and Lake Lucerne made for a wonderful day. I know you weren't in charge of the weather, but we had absolutely perfect weather! And I can't forget, thank you so much for securing us seats in the Excellence class on the Glacier Express. That was everything we had hoped for and more. Incredible service, views, food and wine. Look forward to planning another trip with you!

Trip was amazing. It was planned perfectly and every hotel was wonderful and every excursion was incredible. I’m very grateful for the hard work of your team to make it a dream vacation.

We had an amazing time. We felt the service we received went above and beyond! The little details of navigating who was picking us up from the ferry/taking us to our hotel made such a huge difference. All of the tours in our itinerary went smoothly and were so much fun.

The hotels were amazing. Each of them were above our expectations. The Rome hotel was a stand out. Having breakfast included with a family of 6 was a HUGE win. The breakfasts were spectacular. There was not one hiccup on a tour or with a driver. The schedule was adhered to for every single event. The drivers were all so professional and kind. Boutique Escapes was so responsive on What'sApp. The tours were wonderful. We loved that they were private for the 6 of us. The definite 2 standouts were Ambra in Rome for the Forum and Colosseum tour and our Florence walking tour guide. Ambra was a gift. She was so knowledgeable and passionate about her work. All 6 of us loved that tour best. The day in the countryside in Florence at the wineries was so fun and was a highlight.

Very organized, very attentive team available to us for anything that popped up, it is THE way to travel, having them take care of everything for us!! Highly recommend your services!! Thank you!!

Thank you for a great once in a lifetime trip and being so responsive while we were in Europe!

The tour guides were all incredible!!! It was really amazing that they were all even more than we expected! Each one really made our trip and it would not have been the same without them. Thanks for providing what we all 4 thought were the absolute best guides!!! The driver that picked us up from Naples and took us to Sorrento was amazing. We learned so much from her and she was an extra guide for us which was incredible. This really was the trip of a lifetime and we have memories to last a lifetime! Thank you!!!!

My travel agent collaborated with Sharon at Boutique Escapes to help us plan a fabulous trip to Amsterdam and the Frankfurt area of Germany. Our agent realized she was not familiar with these areas, and Sharon did a fabulous job! From the small-group tours to the centrally located hotels, everything was great. Sharon must never sleep, because she was available at all hours to navigate a couple of hiccups or let us know a driver was on the way. If you work with Sharon, she will plan a wonderful experience that meets your needs.
