Question 1

What does Uncharted actually plan?

Accepted Answer

I design custom travel itineraries — stays, restaurants, experiences, daily routing — for trips you intend to take seriously. Not a listicle, not a generated guide. A document made for one trip, by a person who's read it twice before sending it to you.

Question 2

Is this a travel agency?

Accepted Answer

I'm an independent travel advisor operating through my host agency — curation first, booking included. I design the trip personally, the way a friend who's been there would, then handle the booking through the agency.

Question 3

What if I already know where I'm going and just need it booked?

Accepted Answer

Then you want the complimentary Hotel, Resort & Cruise Booking service — no planning fee. Tell me the destination, your dates, and the kind of stay you're after, and I'll handle the booking, the special requests, and any preferred-partner amenities through my host agency. You pay for the stay itself at the same rate you'd get on your own — there's just no planning fee and no charge for me to book it, since my side is covered by a standard commission from the agency.

Question 4

How long does it take to get an itinerary back?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the trip — a long weekend comes back sooner than a multi-stop journey. I'll give you a timeline on our consultation call, before any work begins, and if your dates are close, I'll tell you honestly whether there's time.

Question 5

What if I just want restaurant picks for a city I'm already going to?

Accepted Answer

Tell me that when you reach out. Not every trip needs a full plan — sometimes the useful help is narrower, and we'll find the right shape for it on the call.

Question 6

What does the deliverable look like?

Accepted Answer

A shareable trip plan you open on your phone or laptop — organized, easy to follow, and tailored to your trip. It travels with you; it isn't a static PDF.

Question 7

Do you book the trip on my behalf?

Accepted Answer

Through my host agency, I can book your stays — hotels, resorts, and cruises — as well as experiences and transportation, as applicable. I'll also handle special requests and any preferred-partner amenities the property provides. You pay for the booking itself, at the same rate you'd get on your own — what you don't pay is a fee for me to handle it, since my side is covered by a standard commission from the agency. That's separate from any planning fee.

Question 8

What if my trip is long or covers a lot of ground?

Accepted Answer

Send your trip request as usual. Longer, more involved trips are exactly what the consultation is for: we'll talk through the shape, and I'll quote the planning fee once I know what the trip involves.
