Hi, I’m Patricia Castoro

I founded my own travel agency to help my clients make the most of their time on vacation—and, more expansively, the precious time we’re granted here on earth. Because I firmly believe well-planned travel is always time well spent.

My Story

My journey begins with a diagnosis: My dad had a degenerative disease that would eventually claim his eyesight. Knowing this, my parents took our family on the road, crisscrossing the country in a meticulously planned, year-long RV journey while my dad could still see. We visited every single state, and it was the first time I got to quench my curiosity about what lay outside my life in Oklahoma. It was also a powerful lesson in carpe diem, taking advantage of the time you have to fill your life with joy and wonder.

That year on the road inspired a lifetime of exploring beyond my own well-trod backyard—and it’s always been worth it, whether I was marveling at spires or sinking into luxury hammams in Istanbul, biking through Crete, touring the Louvre with a private guide, or sipping wine while watching the sun dip behind the cliffs of the Amalfi Coast.

My husband and I dove head first into another adventure when we moved to Kenya for three years in 2018. Along with our excitement over experiencing a new culture came memories I wouldn’t trade for anything: witnessing the Great Migration across the Masai Mara, waking up to giraffes poking their heads through the windows of the iconic Giraffe Manor, and cementing lifelong friendships with the Kenyans who welcomed us.
