THE EXPERT IN CRAFTING BESPOKE VACATIONS FOR WOMEN

Our high-touch custom travel planning services are designed for women — to help you enjoy vacations personalized to your unique travel style.

You want the perfect vacation without having to plan it yourself. You wish vacation planning didn’t feel like a chore. You want to be excited about your vacation instead of feeling like vacation planning is another chore on your to-do list.

I hear you. I Get It.

Vacation planning
can be:

Complex

if you don’t enjoy being a part of a tour group.

time consuming

if you want a unique and small-batch experience.

OVERWHELMING

if you don’t enjoy piecing together all of the details.

But What If

But What If

Imagine if you a partner on your side that knew how to design a vacation that’s perfect for you and your family or group of girlfriends.

Wild Hair Travels was started to account for women's highly unique travel styles. Traditional travel agencies weren't.

Hi, I’m

Angela

and I’m not your grandma’s travel advisor

I’ve crafted a suite of high-touch vacation planning services designed for the busy professional woman who wants every detail of her vacation meticulously planned without the time and overwhelm of planning it herself.

As a mom and business owner juggling all the things, I understand the temptation to book that vacation package online without much thought because it’s the easy button. Because let’s be honest: vacation planning usually gets put on the back burner of our busy schedules. 

But deep down, you know that vacation package isn’t going to do it for you – because all of the small details make a big impact on your experience. You have discerning taste about the type of lodging and activities and care deeply about the structure and flow of your vacation days. You know you don’t want to be shipped off with a tour group, yet you don’t have the time or mental bandwidth to plan every detail of a custom vacation – that’s where I come in.

I’m here to work one-on-one with you to plan a vacation where every detail feels like the perfect fit for your travel style and gives you the recharge you need from your work-life routine.

Forget what you know about traditional travel agents; my process is unique and modern, tailored to busy professional women who care about the details.

My Unique Approach

MY UNIQUE AND MODERN APPROACH TO VACATION PLANNING

The travel agent industry is in need of an upgrade, but I’ve got your back with a modern approach to vacation planning.

Instead of settling for strict and unoriginal vacation packages, I design custom itineraries that run on your schedule and leave plenty of room for a wild hair adventure or two....no wasting your afternoon pretending to be interested in that museum, when a sunny afternoon at a wine bar is more your style.

Instead of spending your vacation with a bunch of other tourists, I design small-batch, independent experiences so you can enjoy your vacation with your people, not strangers in a tour group....no worries about having to listen to “Karen’s” obnoxious laugh and embarrassing commentary throughout your entire vacation.

Instead of putting ALL of the focus on the hotel, I hone in on the unique travel styles of the group to make sure that every detail is a match for your expectations....no showing up on vacation only to realize that while the hotel was fine, the rest of your vacation wasn’t what you expected.

I Believe That Happy Women Travel More

I BELIEVE THAT HAPPY WOMEN TRAVEL MORE

Confession: I used to think that the more I was able to travel, the happier I would be. I thought that

Traveling Simply = Happiness.​

For years, I was pretty much just living for the next  vacation, and was miserable at my career during the days in between.

I’ve found that even though vacations most definitely make me happy, we can’t expect travel to be the sole creator of our happiness. It’s a balance and a cycle between our careers, our personal lives, and vacation.

Come join the movement of women who are finding their happiness in their normal daily routines and reaping the natural reward of traveling more inside my Facebook community Happy Women Travel More.
