We specialize in hand crafted holidays for those wanting to explore a region of the world at their own pace. Whether it is the ultimate European vacation, discovering the magic of southern California, island hopping the Dalmation coast or a 50th wedding anniversary in Hawaii Destinations by Design will listen carefully, take your ideas and create an itinerary that best suits your interests and budget. We customize all itineraries to suit your interests, dates and requirements.

We will source all accommodation and transportation options from hostels to bed and breakfasts, from car leasing to rail passes, from Paris apartments to villas in Tuscany, bike rental to canal boats, all in order to make your holiday truly unforgettable. We provide the freedom of independent travel with the security of a detailed route, pre-booked hotels, restaurant and sightseeing recommendations even advice on the line-up free entrances to museums – in effect an invisible escort.

We would like to introduce one of our newest affiliates: New York Habitat. We are happy to include them in our expanding list of contacts. Click on the links on the side to view available rentals. Please contact Shelagh if you are interested in booking any of the accommodations.

New York Habitat designed a way to give travelers the feeling of what it is like to live independently in New York, Paris, the South of France or London, by arranging stays in quality furnished apartments. Our approach was and is unique, and has been embraced by the international travel community. Since its inception, the company has grown and expanded its services and clientele. Originally serving mostly French visitors to New York, New York Habitat now serves a vast international clientele.
