My Background
2021 Condé Nast Traveler Top Travel Specialist
I believe that travel is a valuable investment that enriches your soul and connects you to our vast and beautiful world. You get to create memories and collect adventures that'll last a lifetime. You've earned your vacation time and saved up for your dream trip. Why leave that investment to chance?
For 20 years, I worked as an event organizer designing corporate and consumer events for 5 - 20,000+ guests in the US and Canada by leveraging my personal connections, first-hand knowledge, and conducting thorough research.
Travel is a part of my soul. It's who I am. Having visited 50+ countries, my personal adventures have taken me to Asia, Africa, South America, Europe, and across North America. And my heart brings me back to Hawaii every year! I've hiked Franz Josef Glacier in New Zealand, learned to make paella in Spain, watched the sunrise over Angkor Wat, hiked around Machu Picchu, camped in the Sahara, ate my way through Singapore's hawker stands, shopped the souks in Marrakech, watched lava flow on Hawaii's Big Island, vineyard hopped around Tuscany and Napa, admired Bali's kaleidoscopic sunsets, and saw the Big 5 on safari when following the Great Migration in the Serengeti.
It would be a privilege to work with you to make new memories and create an exceptional experience based on your tastes, wishes, and budget. Let's make your travel dreams a reality!

Grace was so quick to respond and help make a last minute hotel reservation for Veterans Day weekend in Washington DC. She was able to get secure a fantastic rate with double beds which were hard to find a few days prior to our weekend trip! Will definitely make future reservations with Pineapple7!

Dream Trip to Alaska
By: PMC
Reviewed on: 06 Oct 2018
Alaska has always been on my wish list and Gracie made it happen! Gracie listened to what I wanted to see and do. She was professional, personable, creative. She put together a custom agenda which included my top wish - to see the glaciers up-close. Gracie also found a few private/small group tours that allowed me to experience unique activities not done by the typical traveler. You can tell that she really cares about her customers. Highly recommend her and will work with Gracie on my next vacation!

It was fantastic working with Grace. She is extremely knowledgeable and has excellent attention to detail. She was there to assist us every step of the way - before, during and after. She worked tirelessly with the resort to rectify a confusing situation so I could enjoy our fabulous family vacation. She also helped us to make a last minute change when another family member was suddenly able to join us. We will definitely consult her for all our travel needs.

Grace was amazing!

Grace was great to work with! She loves to travel herself and she is passionate about helping make her client's travel dreams come true. The hotels she booked for my adult daughter and I in Switzerland and Italy were absolutely perfect. Her tour and activity suggestions fit our interests well. Our travel documents came in the mail well before our trip and her follow up was just as timely. Fortunately, we did not have any issues on our trip, but I am confident that she would have worked hard to resolve any issues if we needed to contact her. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone planning to travel!

This was an instant trip with a small group who had never cruised before scattered across different states and time zones from Grace. She was very helpful, cheerful and patient. There were several times I was sure things wouldn’t come together but she stuck with us all thru different issues and we made it! Amazing!

I will never travel without first contacting Grace Cular Yee again. We enjoyed our visits and tours that she planned for us in Normandy and Munich — beautiful, historic and unique venues with private guides who really knew how to tell a story and keep us all engaged. The country hotel in Bayeux,FR and in Munich, each had a unique charm in its architecture, accommodations and setting. For anyone who wants to take the stress out of planning a vacation--I would recommend to go to Pineapple7— They helped us plan a beautiful family vacation with a variety of activities to keep the oldest (75 yo) to the youngest (18 yo) engaged and happy.

I turned to Grace when I became overwhelmed with trying to book flights online. I've planned my own trips for decades, but found so much frustration trying to navigate online booking options for this most recent trip. I picked up the phone, called Grace and had great flights at a great price within 10 minutes! It was just that simple. She kept me up to date on any travel changes and we ended up having an excellent trip!

Grace planned a great trip for my visit to Canada. She clearly understood what I wanted out of this trip, to see the wildlife, and did her absolute best to match my idea, which turned out better than what I would have planned on my own. She was also very communicative during my trip whenever issues arose which gave me a sense of relief as well. Would definitely recommend!

Great Travel Agent
By: Jeffrey
Reviewed on: 16 Aug 2019
Working with Grace was an easy process. She took care of all the details. She let me have as much input into the process as I liked. We discussed it a few times and changed the itinerary around until I was happy with it. The three things I liked most about Grace were that she was easy to work with, responded quickly to messages, and came up with ideas and hotel option that I never would have found or considered on my own. I will use Grace in the future, and I would recommend that others give her a try.

Grace helped us plan an absolutely amazing trip to Italy!! We can not thank her enough!! All of the properties were just stunning...my favorite was Il Borro Estate! I could have stayed there one more night!! The tours (winery, bike, hiking, museum, artisans and boat) that she planned for us were fantastic! All of our drivers and tour guides were punctual and very knowledgeable!! We loved our personal time with each guide. We highly recommend Grace! She put together an amazing itinerary for our 20th wedding anniversary trip to Italy!! It was by far our best trips that we have taken!! We were able to just relax and not have to worry about anything--we just followed our amazing itinerary!

Trip of a Lifetime - Easy & Fabulous
By: Laurie L.
Reviewed on: 20 Nov 2019
This was a combination land tour and transatlantic cruise. The pieces seemed complicated to me, but Grace made short work of organizing and perfecting the entire trip.
The execution of the trip was so simple for us. We had to just show up at the times indicated and everything was taken care of. We didn't have to worry about hailing a taxi, finding someone who spoke English, or fret about any details — all of the hard work was taken care of already!
All we had to do was show up and be ready to enjoy the beauty and adventure that is Italy!
The locations Grace chose for us were perfect. She genuinely listens to her clients and chooses adventures and lodging that suit them. These are truly bespoke itineraries — we felt like this trip was created specifically for us.
This was our first time traveling like this — letting someone else make all the arrangements. We will DEFINITELY work with Grace again!
