Journeys
DESIGNED to stay with you
Travel planning should feel exciting, not exhausting. That’s where I come in. I take the guesswork out of every detail and create trips that flow effortlessly from the first idea to the final flight home.
For me, travel isn’t about ticking boxes. It’s about discovery, connection, and stories that stay with you long after you return. With me, you won’t just visit new places. You’ll immerse yourself in them and collect memories that remain as vivid years from now as the day you lived them.

Here is why you'll never go back!
Sure, anyone can book a flight or hotel online. But creating a trip that feels effortless, personal, and truly unforgettable is different. I design the kind of stays, guides, and experiences you will never find in a search engine. I handle every detail so you can simply relax and enjoy.

Nice to meet you!
I’m so happy you’re here. Here’s a little about me: I grew up near Boston but spent my summers hiking and horseback riding in Banff, Alberta. I even lived there for a year where I learned to ski.
Since then I have explored more than 30 countries, always inspired by new landscapes, cultures, and people. My background in fine arts sharpened my eye for detail, and years in the restaurant world taught me the art of hospitality and creating unforgettable experiences.
Now I call Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA home with my husband, two teenagers, and our dog Milo. I travel for the people, the food, the mountains, the beaches, and the incredible hotels that make every trip special.

Dahlia helped us create an amazing trip. She went above and beyond to make sure we got to do everything we wanted to and to see everything we wanted to see with the best hotels, locations, tours, and restaurant recommendations. Dahlia was incredibly available to us when we wanted to make last-minute changes and additions. She made this trip possible which will be a lifelong treasure. We couldn’t have done it without her! I would recommend Dahlia way above and beyond any travel agent I have ever worked with. I would never work with anyone else. No one could be better.

Dahlia was great to work with, she was able to work with the hotel to find us the best rates and amenities for our stay. We were celebrating a 40th Birthday and 5 year anniversary so we wanted to make it super special and she did help us do just that. There was a cake and champagne from her upon arrival, so very sweet of her. We had to reschedule our stay and she was able to navigate that for us without losing any money! We would work with Dahlia again for our next adventure for sure!

Our experience with Dahlia Swerdloff was wonderful. She communicated quickly and clearly; she even helped us solve a couple snafus while we were on the vacation itself. Her recommendations were top notch, perfectly dialed in for our preferences.

The trip exceeded my expectations! From the pick up at the airport to drop off and everything in between. And having fantastic weather while we were there didn’t hurt.
The hotel was amazing and the experiences our boys were able to take advantage of were not lost on them. The trip would not have been the same without your guidance
