About Innové Travel
Meet Elisa, Founder and Owner
How My Wanderlust Began
My obsession with the world began at age five, the moment my family moved to Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. While most kids were settling into kindergarten, I was busy learning that the world was much bigger, more colorful, and more diverse than I ever imagined.
Though I grew up primarily in New Jersey, my formative years were spent as a global nomad, from the vibrant beaches of Brasil to the historic streets of London, England. My parents fueled this fire, teaching me to appreciate new perspectives and the beauty of different cultures. Today, travel is more than just a hobby for me; it’s my therapy. Nothing beats the excitement of a trip countdown or the pure joy of discovering a destination for the very first time.
The Art of the Getaway
For years, I was the "go-to" person for friends and family, meticulously crafting itineraries and scouting out the best local tips. Eventually, I realized that my passion for planning belonged behind a professional desk. I took that lifelong hobby and turned it into a business I absolutely love.
My travel style is a blend of the iconic and the intimate. While I love seeing the world’s "big" sites, my heart truly lives on the off-the-beaten-path cobblestone streets. You’ll usually find me at a local cafe, espresso in hand, soaking in the atmosphere and practicing the local language.
Why Work With Me?
I specialize in European adventures and the effortless elegance of River Cruising.
Whether you are a seasoned traveler or a first-timer feeling a bit overwhelmed by the planning process, I am here to help. I love guiding newcomers through their very first international trip, ensuring every detail is seamless so you can focus on the magic of the moment.
As part of a premier host agency, I also have a global network of experts at my fingertips. If your heart is set on a destination outside of my specialty, I have the right people to call to make sure you’re always in the best hands.
Ready to start your countdown? Let’s plan something unforgettable!
