Thank you, Jenn for giving our family memories that will last a lifetime

Mon, 06 Jul 26 04:14:32 +0000

Our trip was nothing short of amazing! Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and it truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we started planning, Jenn listened carefully to everything I envisioned for this vacation and turned it into a dream come true.

Traveling privately made all the difference, it allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every experience without worrying about the logistics. Every destination, hotel, activity, and transfer was seamless.

The best part was seeing my son completely immersed in the history, cooking classes, and exploring new places. Those memories are something our family will cherish forever 💙. My husband, my son, and I all agree that this was the best birthday and vacation we’ve ever had.

If you’re looking for someone who genuinely listens, pays attention to every detail, and creates unforgettable travel experiences, we highly recommend Jenn Hilchey | Wine & Travel Curator. Thank you, Jenn, for giving our family memories that will last a lifetime, we can’t wait to plan our next adventure with you!

Jenn Hilchey was an absolute dream to work with.

Just returned from a cruise curated by the one and only Jenn Hilchey. It was absolutely fantastic. Found her on instagram and I am so glad I did. She brought together an AMAZING group of like minded women of all ages. I had the best time drinking wine, exploring, eating, dancing, and laughing with all of them.

My favorite day was the food and wine tour in a beautiful part of Rome. Jenn is absolutely my new go to for all things travel. Cannot recommend her enough!

Everything was incredibly organized from beginning to end...

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:57:52 +0000

Jenn did an outstanding job planning our trip! Everything was incredibly organized from beginning to end, making the entire experience smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. Her attention to detail and thoughtful planning ensured that every part of the cruise and the tours were seamlessly. One of the ports had to change time spent in the country and Jenn did a wonderful job communicating with the group!

Jenn also helped me plan an extension in Portugal and her recommendations were amazing! She helped with all the private transfers as well.

One of the highlights of the trip was the wonderful friendships that were made along the way. Jenn created an atmosphere that brought people together, making it easy to connect and share unforgettable experiences.

I had an amazing time on the tour and truly appreciate all the hard work Jenn put into making it such a memorable experience. I highly recommend Jenn to anyone looking for a well-organized, fun, and rewarding travel adventure! Can’t wait for the next one with her!!

The excursions were spectacular and unique...

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:56:48 +0000

I loved the women’s trip Jenn hosted on Virgin Voyages. It was my first cruise and she answered all my questions. I met amazing people and made new friends. The excursions were spectacular and unique. I will be booking another trip with her.

I can’t wait to book my next trip with Jenn!

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:55:27 +0000

Jenn Hilchey hosted the BEST trip to Tuscany! I came across her Instagram page and decided to book a trip with her and I’m so glad I did!

The trip far exceeded my expectations!

Everything was thoughtfully planned from the food to the wine and the activities! Jenn also takes your food allergies very seriously which I very much appreciated. I can’t wait to book my next trip with Jenn!

The trip plan exceeded all my expectations, unfolding seamlessly...

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:53:30 +0000

There are truly no words to capture how essential it was for me to travel to Italy and experience an unforgettable girls' trip. From the moment the idea of visiting Italy crossed my mind, I felt a mix of excitement and anticipation, and I was right to trust that instinct. I was fortunate to connect with an incredible travel agent through Instagram who played a pivotal role in making this trip a reality.

Jenn, the girls' trip advisor, was nothing short of exceptional. She was incredibly organized, efficient, and always ready to assist me with any request or concern I had, especially since I was traveling all the way from Brazil while the rest of the group was in the United States. Her expertise and attention to detail ensured that everything ran smoothly, from coordinating accommodations to arranging transportation and activities. Each step of the planning process was seamless, allowing me to focus on the fun adventures we would share in Italy. I can confidently say that having Jenn by my side transformed the planning experience and laid the foundation for what turned out to be a truly unforgettable trip.

The trip plan exceeded all my expectations, unfolding seamlessly and filled with unforgettable experiences. Meeting a diverse group of girls from various states was particularly enriching, as we had the chance to exchange cultural backgrounds and stories. Each moment was a celebration, from savoring delightful local cuisine to indulging in exquisite wine tastings.

One of the highlights was a thrilling truffle-hunting adventure. We also enjoyed a luxurious day on a yacht, soaking up the sun and the breathtaking views of the coastline. A hands-on cooking class allowed us to dive deeper into the culinary traditions of the region, culminating in a delicious dinner where laughter and good cheer flowed just as freely as the wine.

Our vineyard tour was another memorable experience, as we explored the scenic landscapes and learned about the winemaking process firsthand, followed by a delightful shopping excursion in the charming towns of San Gimignano and Siena.

Furthermore, I was grateful to Jenn for her thoughtful guidance. Knowing that I was planning to visit Naples next, she went out of her way to provide me with invaluable tips and insights about the city, suggesting must-visit spots and experiences. Her keen advice truly inspired confidence in me, and I was so impressed with her help that I have already recommended her services to my friends for their future travel planning.

Xoxo ;)

Jenn, thank you for cultivating such a wonderful travel experience.

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:49:15 +0000

Jenn, thank you for cultivating such a wonderful travel experience. I had an amazing time and truly appreciated all the thought, care, and effort you put into making everything so enjoyable and seamless.

Your dedication to creating a welcoming and memorable stay did not go unnoticed, and it made a real difference in my experience. I’m grateful for all that you do and for the hospitality you showed throughout my visit.

Thank you again for everything! It was a pleasure, and I would gladly recommend this experience to others!

I felt well taken care of and her professionalism was on point!

Tue, 16 Jun 26 21:47:30 +0000

If you like discovering what a Women’s retreat means in Europe choose Jenn. I chose her for my Italy retreat and it was epic. What a best choice! From welcoming lunch at Florence and doing a little site see, everything went smoothly. Our trip to the vineyard in Tuscany was breathtaking. The atmosphere she created for women from all across was absolutely amazing. Jenn was very focused and making sure that everyone was included and comfortable. The itinerary she created for the trip was so fun and educational at the same time. We learned a lot about wine, truffle hunting and Italian cuisine. She picked one of the best vineyard in Tuscany.

Overall, the trip meets more than my expectations. I felt well taken care of and her professionalism was on point!

Highly recommend Jenn

Slow Travel, Done Properly: Why Boutique Stays Change Everything

Thu, 23 Apr 26 18:58:17 +0000

There’s a difference between seeing a place and actually experiencing it.

Most trips move quickly—city to city, hotel to hotel—fitting in as much as possible. It looks good on paper, but it rarely delivers the feeling people are actually after when they travel.

That’s where slow travel comes in.

Not as a trend, but as a shift in how a trip is designed. Fewer stops, more time, and a focus on how it all feels while you’re there.

Introducing the Slow Travel Collection

The Slow Travel Collection is a curated set of European journeys, shaped by thoughtful pacing, boutique stays, and a more considered way to experience each destination.

Each itinerary is designed as a starting point—refined further around you, your pace, and how you want your time to feel.

Because where you stay—and how you move between places—changes everything.

The Role of Boutique Stays

A boutique hotel isn’t just smaller. It’s more intentional.

These are properties where the experience is considered from the start—design, atmosphere, and service all working together. But what truly sets them apart is the way they make you feel.

You’re not just arriving to a reservation. You’re being welcomed into a space where the team already understands their guests—often anticipating what you might need before you ask.

The pace is different. The service feels natural, not transactional.

More Than a Place to Stay

The right property doesn’t just complement a destination—it shapes it.

Mornings feel slower. Evenings come together more easily. Recommendations aren’t generic—they’re thoughtful and often tailored in the moment.

You might find yourself lingering longer over breakfast, or choosing to stay in for dinner because the setting feels exactly right. Plans shift, but in a way that enhances the experience, not complicates it.

Travel That Feels Personal

When a stay is done well, it becomes part of the experience—not just somewhere you return to at the end of the day.

You settle in quickly. You feel taken care of without needing to ask. And by the time you leave, it feels like more than just a stop along the way.

It’s subtle, but it’s what people remember.

Why It Matters

Slow travel isn’t about doing less—it’s about doing the right things, in the right way.

It’s choosing places that are worth staying in, and giving yourself the time to enjoy them. It’s allowing a destination to unfold naturally, rather than trying to fit everything in at once.

And it’s working with properties that understand that what you’re looking for isn’t just a room—it’s an experience that feels effortless from start to finish.

The Way I Design Travel

This is the approach I love to take when designing trips for my clients.

Boutique stays with a strong sense of place. Thoughtful pacing. Experiences that feel connected to where you are.

Everything working together in a way that feels easy while you’re there—and stays with you long after.

Each journey begins with a conversation. Please feel free to inquire anytime!

Cheers,

Jenn Hilchey

I will never not use her now!

Thu, 23 Apr 26 18:01:15 +0000

I had the idea of visiting Portugal, mostly because my wife mentioned it as a country she really wanted to visit.

So I wanted to surprise her with a fully booked family trip but I had no idea where and what to see there.

There is where Jenn Hilchey, my travel advisor completely saved the day. I simply told her what in general we like to do, when we travel, and activities we like to do. After providing some date ranges, she sent me a full itinerary based off a schedule we preferred and provided tours and lined up dates. After that, lodging options were priced and once flights were booked, everything was lined up in a beautiful and easy to follow schedule on a trip advisor app.

Even while we were there she stayed in contact with us and added tours as we needed.

I have never used a travel advisor before for an international trip. I will never not use her now.

Look to Jenn. She is in a league of her own.

Sun, 22 Mar 26 15:16:20 +0000

It’s one thing to find a good travel advisor, but it’s another thing to find a true partner who delivers a flawless experience. After a first seamless trip to Marseille, Jenn planned a trip to Istanbul and Cappadocia.

From a private cruise in the Bosphorus to securing reservations at top restaurants, every detail was handled. The ‘cave hotel’ in Cappadocia had incredible views, the hot air balloon logistics were impeccable and the private tour of the underground city and open air museum felt like we were with a friend and not just a tour guide.

If you are looking for an inspired, sophisticated and personalized experience - look to Jenn. She is in a league of her own.

Our whole trip came together better than I could have imagined

Mon, 12 Jan 26 18:08:34 +0000

I seriously don’t even know where to start. Planning a destination wedding is a lot, and I truly could not have done it without our coordinator Jenn. From the very beginning she was patient, organized, and always on top of everything.

Flights, resort bookings, guest questions, timelines, all of it was handled so smoothly. What I loved most was how easy she was to talk to. No stiff or scripted conversations, just real help from someone who genuinely cared that everything turned out right for us and our guests.

Anytime I had a question (and I had a lot 😅), she was always quick to respond and made me feel completely supported. Our whole trip came together better than I could have imagined, and I honestly owe a huge part of that to her. If you’re planning a destination wedding, group trip, honeymoon, or anything travel-related, I 100% recommend working with her. Best decision I made during this whole process.

So grateful for her🤍

📍Phi Phi Islands, Thailand

She has an absolute passion for what she does

Thu, 01 Jan 26 20:28:56 +0000

Jenn Hilchey arranged what any reasonable person could call a once-in-a-lifetime adventure for my wife and me. The only thing that prevents me from calling it that is the certainty that we’ll do it again!

My wife and I spent 16 days in Athens, Santorini, Rome, and Florence/Tuscany. That may seem like a long vacation in terms of days, but every day was a brand-new adventure, one after another. The occasion was our 40th wedding anniversary—a trip we had planned in our minds since the early days of our marriage. What a fantastic choice we made, both in terms of the trip and the person who arranged it.

Here’s why I’m writing. Jenn spent hours, days, and weeks talking with Leslie and me about what we hoped to accomplish. Our conversations weren’t limited to where we wanted to go but included what, how, and why. One by one, Jenn layered in locations, arts and letters, food, fare and wine, history, and music. There was no interest or objective we articulated that she didn’t respond to with an idea, an option, or a clarifying question. In short—and most importantly—Jenn Hilchey invested in us before she put ideas in front of us. One of the most memorable parts of our trip was seeing the joy in Jenn’s tailored responses as she listened, thought, and proposed.

We talked about high-end options, value, and experiences. We discussed busy times, quiet times, guides, tickets, restaurants, and vineyards. If we spent a week on a conversation and then found an idea elsewhere, Jenn made all the necessary adjustments. The attention to detail upfront guaranteed an excellent experience. We felt comfortable and confident throughout our first trip to Europe.

As much as the planning and idea-sharing mattered, the execution was even better. Cars met our airplanes. Hotels met our cars. Docents and guides met us in hotel lobbies. Museums greeted us. Restaurants and vineyards were ready for us. Jenn checked in regularly—daily. We arrived at hotel rooms to find notes, fruit, and candies. Jenn provides a vacation like a fine tailor: she measures twice, cuts and fits, and checks and refits if necessary. You are connected to her throughout your experience.

Here is an insight I think is important when considering Jenn: she personally knows, and is important to, the men, women, and families whose businesses will serve you when you travel. Imagine what that means for your experience. We used guides and visited wineries where the people and families sought us out to introduce themselves because we were “guests of Jenn.” More than once, other travelers asked, “Who do you know?” The answer: “Jenn Hilchey, of course.”

When you work with Jenn, and the overwhelming network of high-end firms she’s connected to, you feel it from beginning to end. She has an absolute passion for what she does. There is no better reason to associate yourself with someone than that person bringing excellence and passion to your experience.

Once-in-a-lifetime? No way. Can’t wait for round two.

We had an incredible trip to Panama-thoughtfully planned by Jenn Hilchey

Thu, 18 Dec 25 15:44:55 +0000

We had an incredible trip to Panama, thoughtfully planned by Jenn Hilchey. From start to finish, she connected with us personally and handled every detail, booking each step with care. Her collaboration with Panama Trails and Rafael made the experience seamless and unforgettable.

Our journey began in Panama City, staying at the Waldorf Astoria in a location that was perfect for exploring. We could walk to a variety of restaurants, and a short ride to Casco Viejo yielded amazing rooftop views and vibrant nightlife. The suggestion to visit Casco Viejo was spot on.

A quick flight to David and convenient transportation later, we arrived in Boquete. Our accommodations were in a fantastic, walkable area with easy access to unique restaurants and bars. Each excursion felt private and exclusive, from a Hacienda atop the mountain where we enjoyed a delectable 6-course farm-to-table meal to Hanging Bridges, coffee tours, authentic Panamanian cuisine, hiking with breathtaking vistas, and a relaxing dip in hot springs.

Every detail was planned and perfectly executed, making the trip feel effortless and luxurious. We had an absolute blast and can’t wait to see what Jenn has in store for us next year when we visit Portugal!

Thank you, Jenn! Between the well thought out excursions, and the suggestions on how to spend our free time we just had to show up and be awesome!!

We’re so grateful for all the care she put into this trip.

Thu, 18 Dec 25 15:15:57 +0000

Working with Jenn was one of the best parts of planning our trip. She understood exactly what we wanted and made everything feel easy from beginning to end.

She booked our cruise rooms right next to each other and arranged private shore excursions in Italy and Greece so we could enjoy the days our own way. She stayed in touch with our guides the whole time to make sure everything went smoothly, and we always felt looked after.

Jenn also handled all of our private transfers and train tickets. We were nervous about the trains, but she explained everything clearly and even called us the night before our Switzerland train to walk through it together. Our time in Switzerland was amazing, and the Jungfraujoch experience she booked for us ended up being one of our favorite memories.

Her pre-trip documents and tips were so helpful, and she checked in often so nothing ever felt confusing or stressful.

We’re so grateful for all the care she put into this trip. Jenn truly brought our vision to life, and we wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or recommend her to others.

First international trip to Europe and we are so appreciative of Jenn

Thu, 11 Dec 25 16:36:26 +0000

The vacation of a lifetime!

My wife and mine's first international trip to Europe and we are so appreciative of Jenn Hilchey from Travel Box International for helping us to plan and execute our trip.

Our cruise excursions to Mykonos, Kusadasi, Santorini, Naples and Rome were remarkable, taking in the highlights of each stop with our limited shore time. Jenn understood our mobility issues and took this into consideration with each adventure that she planned for us.

Our second week visiting Switzerland was breathtaking and unforgettable! Jenn arranged private transportation for us and helped us to navigate the train system for us newbies, with her being available when we called her in the middle of the night to ensure that we got on the correct train to Switzerland. In my opinion this availability and always pleasant attitude (even at 2AM back home) puts Jenn above the rest. We highly recommend using Jenn and Travel Box International for creating your next unforgettable memories.

The Honeymoon of Our Dreams — Thanks to Jenn Hilchey!

My wife and I recently returned from our 22-day honeymoon in Italy, and we can confidently say it was the trip of a lifetime — all thanks to Jenn from Travel Box International! From start to finish, Jenn went above and beyond to make our first trip to Europe absolutely seamless and unforgettable.

Our itinerary was incredible — we explored Milan, Venice, Florence, San Gimignano, Sorrento, Positano, and Rome, with unforgettable day trips to Lake Como, Capri, Pompeii, Amalfi, and Ravello. Jenn perfectly balanced the must-see sights with authentic, immersive experiences that allowed us to truly soak in Italy’s incredible food and wine culture.

One of the many highlights she arranged was introducing us to the amazing Tenuta Torciano Winery in Tuscany, where she completely surprised us with a romantic dinner under the stars in the vineyard — an experience we will never forget. She also coordinated a private cooking class with Dante, which turned out to be one of the most fun and memorable days of the entire trip!

She took the time to understand what we were looking for — not just checking boxes at the famous landmarks, but slowing down to enjoy local vineyards, hidden trattorias, and off-the-beaten-path gems. Every hotel, transfer, and tour she arranged was flawless, and her attention to detail made the entire trip stress-free. She was also available 24/7, even while we were abroad, always checking in and making sure everything was perfect. That kind of dedication and care made all the difference.

If you ever need help planning a trip, do not hesitate to call Jenn. She crafts more than itineraries — she's the mastermind behind creating lifelong memories. We're still reliving Italy every day and already plotting our return, knowing Jenn will get it exactly right again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better travel experience.

Tue, 14 Oct 25 04:08:24 +0000

This was truly one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever taken. A huge thank you to Jenn for planning such a seamless and well-organized experience from start to finish. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and it was such a comfort knowing you were available throughout the trip for any questions that came up.

The welcome Cava at the hotel was such a special and thoughtful touch — it really made us feel celebrated from the moment we arrived.

We loved every excursion you curated — each one struck the perfect balance of adventure, history, culture, food, and of course, wine. It was clear that so much care and attention went into crafting an itinerary that truly reflected our interests.

We couldn’t have asked for a better travel experience. Thank you again, Jenn!

FAQ's About the EU's New Entry System, Launching October, 2025

Tue, 30 Sep 25 17:16:19 +0000

Are you ready for your next trip to Europe? The European Union’s new, automated, digital entry and exit system for non-EU nationals – including citizens of the U.S. and Canada – will be implemented starting October 12, 2025. The EU’s long-delayed new digital border control process is called EES: Entry/Exit System.

Sadly, for nostalgic passport stamp collectors, the new system will eliminate manual stamping. EES replaces the previous system with a digital process that includes the collection of travelers’ biometric data.

That means you will have your facial image and fingerprints taken to record your entry into any of the 29 EU countries that make up the so-called ‘Schengen Area’, and your exit from any of them on your departure.

You cannot opt out of providing biometric data for EES. It is a requirement for non-EU citizens under EU law. If you refuse to provide your biometric data, you will be denied entry into the EU’s Schengen Area.

The Schengen Area is the group of almost all of the European Union countries that have collectively decided to eliminate internal border controls, allowing for free movement for travelers once they clear passport control in the first country of the Schengen Area of their trip. Within the Schengen Area, as before the EES, there are no passport controls.

The new EES applies to visitors on short stays (up to 90 days in a 180-day period). Years in the making and implementation, EES finally consolidates all Schengen Area member countries’ border control information digitally.

While saying goodbye to the sometimes pretty and nostalgic passport stamps, EES provides a centralized and automated passport control information database that can be simultaneously operated by all the member countries. EES electronic records available to all member countries’ border control officials allow them to track entries, exits, and potential overstays by non-EU citizens.

Officials say EES will enhance security, prevent irregular migration, and standardize data collection across the Schengen Area.

Do Travelers Need to Do Anything?

No pre-registration for the EES is required before your trip to Europe
Make sure your passport is in good condition for digital scanning
Be prepared for your biometric data to be collected on your first entry into an EU country as of October 12, 2025
Allow extra time for border crossing (entry and exit) in EU countries during the rollout phase through Spring, 2026.

EES officials add that, once it's fully implemented, EES will streamline future border crossings as it speeds up and secures travel processes.

Remind Me Again: Which Countries are Part of the EU/ Schengen Area?

Austria
Belgium
Bulgaria
Croatia
Czech Republic (Czechia)
Denmark
Estonia
Finland
France
Germany
Greece
Hungary
Iceland
Italy
Latvia
Liechtenstein
Lithuania
Luxembourg
Malta
Netherlands
Norway
Poland
Portugal
Romania
Slovakia
Slovenia
Spain
Sweden
Switzerland

Just so you know, Ireland and Cyprus are the only two EU members that are not currently part of the Schengen Area. Ireland has a permanent opt-out, while Cyprus is expected to join in the future.

Even before Brexit, the countries of the U.K.: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, were not part of the Schengen Area, and are not participants in the new EES.

For more information, here’s the EU’s official webpage for the EES.

Riviera Designates World First Solo Cruise Ship

Tue, 30 Sep 25 17:15:55 +0000

Solo travel keeps growing, and now there’s a river ship just for singletons to enjoy cruising together for the whole season! Riviera Travel is launching the first-ever cruise ship dedicated to solo travelers in 2027. Now there’s no need to wait until friends or family can join you on holiday – at any time of the river cruising season.

Lots of cruise lines, ocean and river, offer solo travel promotions and Riviera Travel itself even offers whole solo itineraries – more than any other river cruise line, according to the company. As the UK's largest operator with 4 decades of ultra-premium river, ocean and land travel experience behind it, the company is seeing the rise of solo travel, and it’s putting solos at the wheel of their river cruise vacation planning with this new initiative.

Beginning in June 2027, MS George Eliot will exclusively sail solo departures on the Danube, Rhine and Moselle rivers marking the first time a cruise ship has devoted its entire season to solo guests. There are 4, 7-night-long itineraries on Europe’s most popular routes.

Riviera Travel says its solo river cruises are among its most popular itineraries. So the next, natural step was to designate, not just itineraries to singletons, but a whole ship, calling it and ‘all-new luxury river cruise experience.’

Riviera Travel currently offers more than 20 dedicated solo departures each year, the majority taking place during the spring and fall, with every traveler enjoying a private cabin with no additional single supplement.

By adding a dedicated solo traveler ship to its fleet, Riviera Travel is giving solo travelers the opportunity to choose whether you sail during peak river cruise season or at other times throughout the year.

Travelers onboard MS George Eliot will enjoy Riviera Travel’s signature amenities and experiences tailored to the experiences and needs of solos.

Each guest will enjoy the comfort of your own double cabin— most of which feature a French balcony. The ship features communal spaces in the lounge, bar and sundeck. A welcome dinner and cocktail reception, as well as daily entertainment will let travelers connect with those who have shared interests, facilitating social connections for those who wish.

With no single supplement and an all-inclusive pricing structure that covers excursions, meals, and an all-day drink package, solo travelers can feel like they’re on equal footing with travelers cruising double occupancy.

As one of the more intimate ships in the Riviera fleet and originally designed for 160 guests double occupancy, MS George Eliot will accommodate just 68 solo travelers, creating an exclusive and intimate group.

At the same time, there’s an unprecedented crew to guest ratio of one crew member for every two guests, ensuring solo travelers experience the highest level of personal service. And each cruise includes the expertise of a dedicated cruise director and hotel manager and insightful daily excursions led by local guides.

Riviera’s ships offer a range of amenities, such as a panoramic observation lounge, five-star dining, a spa and wellness area, and a sun deck, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere for travelers exploring Europe’s rivers and landscapes.
