01 / Cusco, Peru
Boots, then a butler.
Four days hut to hut through the Ausangate range, then a butler at the Belmond in Cusco. I have room for both kinds of trip. Preferably in the same week.
Travel designed around you, not what’s trending.
Tell me where you’re going. I probably know someone. — m.
Design my tripHi, I’m Meagan, a travel advisor based in New York City. That’s me on a paddleboard on the lake in Granada, Nicaragua. We were hosted by the Sotheby’s broker there and stayed in a former mansion that was for sale as a boutique hotel.
Put the phone down. Pull up a chair.
You know those afternoons when lunch turns into another glass, someone pulls up a chair, and suddenly you’re in no hurry to be anywhere else?
More of that.
It’s what I’m thinking about when I plan your trip: where you’ll stay, who you might meet, and where to leave a little room for the day to happen.
What are you thinking?
01
One property or several, with the perks. No fee.
02
One destination or several, planned as much or as little as you want. From $350.
03
Offsites, president’s clubs, the 40th for twenty, down to who sits where at dinner. Quoted.

Shot on my phone
Hi, I’m Meagan.
My first job out of college was the management training program at Loews Hotels. Their whole approach was that a hotel should belong to its city, and that’s where I fell for travel that feels like the place you’re in.
Jonathan Tisch, the chairman of Loews, wrote a book called Chocolates on the Pillow Aren’t Enough, and I’ve never worked any other way. The nice touches are expected. What people remember is how they were taken care of.
Between that job and this one were 600 weddings and a very persistent group of friends.

02 / Buenos Aires, Argentina
A local spot where people dance tango all day. Most visitors just watch a show. A professional dancer taught us, brought us here, and we got to join in.
03 / New York City
Trattoria dell’Arte has been around since the 1980s. You become true friends with the bartender, Benjamin, and if your cousin visits enough she gets her name on a gold plaque and her own bar seat.
The people are usually the part you tell your friends about. — m.
A few more pages →That’s a one-stop trip. Multi-stop and groups take longer, same steps.
A real call, not a form, and there’s no commitment. Knowing you’re over big resorts is enough to start.
We go through who’s coming and what you never want on a trip, then I design it around you.
I book the hotel and send them a note before you land, so they’re expecting you when you walk in. Dinner, I’ll point you to and hold if you want me to.
Everything is already handled, and the hotel knows you’re coming.
If you want to compare seventeen hotels and pick one yourself, or shop for the cheapest deal, I’m not your person, and I’ll say so on the first call.
Monthly · Coming this winter
A monthly email about one city. Lost is the place everyone sends you that I’d skip, and Found is the one I’d keep to myself. Every issue includes a hotel and a few restaurants I’d book myself. The first one goes out this winter.
Leave your email and I’ll send you the first one.It’s mostly me asking questions. You don’t need every detail figured out. I take a handful of trips at a time, so the more you can tell me, the faster I can say yes.
I read everything myself. You’ll hear from me soon.
