Deborah Bush
I've always loved traveling and sharing my experiences with friends. How fortunate I am to have a career that dovetails with my passion! Creating customized itineraries for people who truly want to explore the world and understand its people and cultures is extremely rewarding for me.
I make it a point to really listen to my clients, to understand the "why" for their trip. Since I've traveled extensively (to date: 62 countries and all 50 states), I can leverage my destination knowledge and strong industry relationships to design detailed itineraries full of rich experiences. Anything's possible – from a family celebration in an Alaskan Tlingit Indian Spirit House to special access to the Vasari Corridor in Florence or the Sistine Chapel in Rome.
While I’m well-versed in all areas of the globe, I have particular expertise in travel to the UK, Italy, France as well as a great passion for Africa.
I also enjoy planning multi-generation trips which allow families to discover and learn together while having fun and creating lasting memories.
Ever since my college days at Cornell University, I have had a deep interest in art history, cultural history and the culinary arts. I try incorporate a bit of all of these passions in every custom trip that I plan.
It's extremely important to me that I deliver a high level of customer service. To do so, I've assembled a team of talented travel advisors - all with great experience and contacts - to assist me. Thus my clients, and the many friends that they refer to me, can expect personalized and responsive service.
I'm very involved in the travel industry, participating in several advisory boards and am honored to have been twice nominated as one of the five Most Admired Travel Advisors in the Virtuoso network.
Whether you're looking to expand your horizons with a visit to a new-to-you continent or you're a seasoned traveler wanting to push the envelope and explore off-the-beaten-path destinations, I enthusiastically look forward to working with you.
