Based in Melbourne, professional travel advisor Michelle Adler works across premium and luxury travel with an emphasis on meticulous planning and personal connection. Years of frontline consulting have shaped an approach that begins with context: travel history, pace preferences, style of accommodation and the small details that determine comfort. From there, itineraries are crafted to feel balanced — immersive yet unhurried, indulgent yet purposeful.
Adler’s client work spans complex long-haul journeys, luxury cruising and design-led hotels, supported by strong supplier relationships and a clear view of seasonal patterns and availability windows. Each program is built from first principles — routing, logistics, transfers and timings — before being layered with experiences that express the character of a destination, whether through food, art, landscape or wellness.
Service is continuous and proactive. Adler remains the single point of contact from first brief to post-travel debrief, updating preferences and notes as the relationship evolves. Documentation is clear, contingencies are planned quietly in the background, and communication is timely without being intrusive. The net effect is a calm client experience, even when itineraries involve multiple moving parts.
Ongoing development underpins her practice. Regular supplier training, trade events and destination refreshers ensure advice stays sharp, while peer networks provide a channel for real-time intelligence on product shifts and emerging experiences. That professional rhythm translates directly into better counsel — what to book early, where to invest, when to save and how to pace a trip so it actually restores.
Adler’s work is defined less by a signature destination than by a signature way of working: careful listening, precise tailoring and reliable delivery at every stage.
