Travel, Designed for the

good times 

For the Good Times Travel was created for thoughtful travelers who want more than another trip, who seek meaning, magic, and space to breathe. We design highly personalized experiences for people ready to trade the pressure of "doing it all" for moments that feel joyful, thoughtful, and aligned with what makes them feel most alive.

 Whether you’re riding horses on the Irish coast, sharing a devilishly decadent meal in Tuscany, or finally taking that girls' trip you’ve been talking about for years, we turn your ideas into beautifully crafted, soul-nourishing travel.  

because it is.

Trips designed to bring you back to yourself. Crafted with care, a little magic, and a storyteller’s eye for moments that matter.

It’s an experience that feels like it was made just

 for you,

A former corporate ladder-climber turned full-time luxury travel advisor, professional wanderer, and enthusiastic storyteller. I bring creativity, heart, and just the right amount of cheeky whimsy to every trip I plan. If you're looking for someone who truly listens, gets your style, and turns your wish list into something unforgettable, you’re in the right place. While I specialize in the UK and Ireland (and yes, I know them like a local), I design thoughtful travel all over the world. If it makes your heart beat faster, let’s talk.

Why Clients Work With Me

While I specialize in Ireland and the UK (I even did my brand shoot in Edinburgh!), I create meaningful, high-touch travel to destinations all over the globe. If it lights you up, I’ll help you get there.

Specialist in Ireland,
UK & Beyond

I grew up traveling across the country with three sisters, bikes strapped to the roof, and hearts full of adventure. Those early memories shape the way I approach every trip: with warmth, creativity, and a dash of wonder.



Travel is in My DNA
(and My Family Station Wagon)

Every travel experience I plan starts with your story, not a spreadsheet. Whether you're dreaming of cathedrals or cafes, castles or coastline, we build a plan from what brings you joy.

Why 

Margaret Critz, thank you for making our trip first class! The excursions you set up for us were fascinating, and we loved every one of our private tours as well as the days you built in for us to explore the castles and chateaus on our own. We had the most delightful and surprising days, and our hotels were outstanding with staff who took such great care of us. All of our tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and prepared, making us feel like we were with top experts no matter where we went. We want to book with you again and again—I’m ready to go! If you’re reading this, I can assure you Margaret is top notch and can give you the vacation of your dreams!
