Shapiro Travel Co. 

Expert Luxury Travel Design

Meet our Founder

As the product of two unique cultures, languages and religions, I was raised to see myself as a citizen of the world—and from a young age, I was eager to explore it. And explore it, I did! When I realized I could build a career around traveling the globe, I knew I had found my calling…

In 2016, I left a successful career in advertising sales to launch Shapiro Travel Co. What a truly magical adventure it has been—I have never looked back. As a Luxury Travel Designer, I have successfully made hundreds of dream trips become a reality! I work closely with my clients to curate the most magical and memorable moments of their lives. I provide an easy and seamless experience, creating bespoke itineraries tailored to their specific tastes and preferences.

I have an extensive network of relationships with the top hoteliers and tour operators around the world, so when traveling, my clients always feel like a VIP and completely taken care of by the people who live within the destination they’re visiting.
