About
Hi, I’m Wendy Holmes, founder of Travel Raves and your trusted travel advisor. Think of me as the planner who takes your dream trip from “what if” to “wow.” Whether it’s a custom itinerary packed with personal touches or a curated luxury escape ready to book, I’m here to take the stress out of travel planning and make your next adventure unforgettable. At Travel Raves, I specialize in crafting meaningful journeys to some of my favorite destinations, including the turquoise waters of Saint Lucia, Turks and Caicos, and Antigua; the charming streets of Charleston and Amsterdam; the rolling vineyards of France and Italy; and the scenic rivers of the Danube and Rhine. Whether you're dreaming of a Caribbean escape, a European adventure, or a road trip through Arizona’s breathtaking landscapes, I’ll help you design a trip that feels perfectly tailored to you. My goal is to make sure you get the most value out of your travel investment. Whether you’re planning a once-in-a-lifetime adventure or a thoughtfully curated getaway, I’ll help you find experiences that match your priorities and exceed your expectations. With my insider knowledge and industry connections, you’ll enjoy perks and possibilities you didn’t even know existed. Why work with me? Because I care about making your trip as smooth and memorable as possible. My clients consistently rave about my attention to detail, thoughtful touches, and knack for turning travel dreams into reality. Plus, I’m fun to work with—at least, that’s what they tell me! When I’m not creating itineraries, you can find me enjoying a cup of tea (or a glass of Taittinger), dreaming of my next adventure, or packing far too much into a bag that technically qualifies as carry-on. So, where to next? Let’s create something you’ll rave about for years to come.
