It was a pleasure to work with Ana. I was struggling to find a vacation package that was both everything we wanted and affordable. Ana was able to include all that I asked for, and give suggestions on activities to do. I am so excited for our Three Generation Trip that Ana pieced together. 10/10 would recommend.

This was my first time working with a travel agent, and Ana absolutely blew me away! She really took the time to understand my style and needs, and every aspect felt completely personal and tailored to my preferences. She had amazing attention to detail, and always took the time to provide thorough answers to all of my questions. And she didn't stop working after the trip was planned, she checked in and monitored my travel at each step. This was extremely reassuring, particularly as a super anxious person! I was able to let go of the typical stress that comes with traveling for me, and just enjoy myself. I was also really impressed with how far she made my budget go! It was a relatively low budget trip, but every part of it felt like luxury. I can't wait to work with Ana again!

If I could choose ten stars, I would! Ana plans trips very thoughtfully and in an organized way that is easy to decipher. I will only plan trips with Ana because she is the fist travel agent I've ever met who puts a sincere and efficient effort into planning a customized trip for her clients. Ana is amazing and I highly recommend her!

I am very blessed to have found Ana's Touralux through Thumbtack. She is top-notch! I needed a travel agent fast to help me arrange our flight tickets to China trip for my school, Lycee French school, with 13 high school students and 2 teachers, and Ana was our perfect fit! From the first moment I contacted and worked with Ana from November 2023 to coming back to China on March 24, she made every process so effortless and stress-free! I could only choose 3 items out of 5, but Ana fit all 5 items I wanted to say about her: work quality was exceptional, professionalism was what she always presented to me and my school, always responsive quickly and with care, value beyond what we hired her for the job, and punctuality was what made everything smooth for us. While I just worked on getting visas for my students, Ana took care of all the flight process. She was so meticulous to details and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Both our parents and students had the best 2-week trip of their lives in China! Thank you Ana and Tourlux! Our school can't wait to work with you again!!! Thank you!😁

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Every trip is unique, so our pricing varies depending on the level of planning required. Many bookings (like hotels or cruises) include our service at no additional cost to you, thanks to our travel industry partnerships. For more complex itineraries, we may charge a custom design fee, but we’ll always be transparent about that upfront. Most clients find the VIP perks, upgrades, and personalized attention far outweigh the fee.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We start with a quick discovery call so I can learn about your travel style, preferences, and goals. From there, I’ll design a personalized itinerary or present curated options that match your vision. Once we align on the perfect trip, I take care of all the bookings, apply any VIP perks available, and provide ongoing support, so you can focus on enjoying the experience, not managing the details.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have over 10 years of experience designing travel and lifestyle experiences, supported by industry certifications, ongoing supplier education, and in-person site visits, including hotel and cruise inspections. I'm an affiliate of Virtuoso and Fora Travel, two of the most respected global networks, and have built a strong network of trusted local partners around the world. These connections allow me to offer my clients access to vetted experiences, insider insights, and on-the-ground support when they travel. With a background in design, I approach every trip with creativity, strategy, and a deep commitment to personalization.
