My earliest traveling memories are of visiting my grandparents in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Sea Island, Georgia. As I’ve grown older, I see my family more on the road than at home. Travel has strengthened my relationships with my family members, allowed me to grow as an individual, and kept me learning about the world.

THROUGH SCOUTING TRIPS FOR OUR CLIENTS, I’VE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH FAR TO REACH PLACES LIKE THE AFRICAN BUSH.
Travel has always been a part of who I am. However, joining the travel industry never crossed my mind until I “discovered” the career when a luxury travel advisor helped my family plan a trip to visit me in Vietnam, where I was living for a post-college year abroad. Experiencing the benefits of utilizing an advisor’s expertise and connections as a client first convinced me that there is no other way to travel.
The most fulfilling part of my career is playing a small role in our clients’ journeys and helping them discover their preferred travel style. Remote destinations have had a great impact on me as a person and I hope our clients’ travels do the same for them.
Starting Sea to City Travels gifted me the opportunity to learn about the world each and every day, while also helping our clients travel deeply, passionately, and seamlessly.
work with me
We just completed the 3rd amazing trip planned by Sarah. Our 4th trip is now in the planning stages and we can’t wait. We have found Sarah to be a wonderful listener; she is sensitive and clever with all age groups and their interests when planning our family trips. It is a true pleasure working with Sarah as she is very positive and easily reached. I would highly encourage anyone who is planning their next adventure to reach out. She is a consummate professional.

“Sarah listens to my concerns, as well as my hopes as a traveler and then captures exactly what I am looking for with her beautiful travel proposals. From dedicated planning phone calls and timely email correspondences to a rich knowledge of worldwide destinations and a strong background in traveling herself, Sarah has an extensive skill set that puts her above anyone else I've worked with in the industry.”

my current obsession
An eye mask for long flights; it’s the only way I get decent sleep and my Kindle so I never run out of reading material.
my favorite travel memory
My mom joined me on a scouting trip to South Africa. I finally found my first leopard on safari - I missed them while in Kenya. It was the last of the Big 5 on my list and it was so fun sharing my love of safari with my mom sitting next to me!
my favorite destinations
Rwanda because my hour spent with the mountain gorillas is an experience that’s hard to put into words. Italy because there’s always a new town to discover and another bowl of pasta waiting.
MY BEST PIECE OF TRAVEL ADVICE
Work with us to plan guides and experiences ahead of time but also remember that building free time into an itinerary can be equally as important. Finding your perfect balance is integral to the best travel experience!
