Amy Nidds

My interest in travel started when my parents began hosting foreign exchange students every year. I am one of five children and every year we had someone from another country living with us. My mother always said “we can’t afford to take you to see the world, so we are bringing the world to you.” Hearing first-hand what it was like living in their country gave me a passion to see the world.

My career started on Wall Street in sales with a break to raise my children. I then began working with a website writing about my tips, trips and recipes. I began traveling overseas in my 20's and never stopped. I planned a 38 day European vacation for my family and we visited 10 countries. My three kids were 11-14 years old at the time. I spent weeks planning and researching the trip. It was an invaluable experience for all of us. As the saying goes…travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you richer!

Some of my most memorable experiences were paragliding in Italy, canyoning in Switzerland, making pizzas and wine tasting in Italy, swimming with sharks and flying in a doors off helicopter over the Kauai coast.

Now, as a passionate and seasoned traveler, I have experience in guiding and managing domestic and international travel. I enjoy the arts, entertainment, culture, adventure and food across all regions. My clients leverage this expertise, along with my dedication to unparalleled service, whenever they are looking to create a unique travel experience. If you are looking for help planning the trip of a lifetime, unforgettable travel experiences, ocean or river cruising, private guided tours, incredible adventures for yourself or with a group, let’s talk! I would love the opportunity to work with you.

I am a specialist in Hawaii and Cabo as well.

I am thrilled to be a part of the Valerie Wilson Travel Agency team.
