LIFE IS SHORT. EXPERIENCE PLACES.

Who We Are

We are a boutique travel agency specializing in UNIQUE vacation experiences around the world, from beach destinations and cruises to world explorations, ski getaways, destination weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, family reunions, school trips and more.

How We work

We arrange beach destinations, cruises, world explorations, ski getaway, family reunions, destination weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs and more. We take care of everything so you don't have to. From crafting your perfect itinerary to booking every flight, hotel, and experience, we handle all the details behind the scenes.

 

Most of our compensation comes from commissions paid by tour operators, hotels, and travel suppliers, which is why we typically book all trip components on your behalf. This commission-based model allows us to keep our fees low while providing comprehensive service. We do not charge a planning or service fee for beach vacations, cruises, and ski trips, and just a small one time planning fee for custom trips. You focus on packing; we'll manage everything else.

about

Family Travel Concierge was born from founder Alex Medvedovski's own adventures traveling the globe with his wife Bella and their three children. After years in IT and analytics with Fortune 100 companies, Alex turned his passion for exploration into a business dedicated to crafting seamless, unforgettable trips.

 

Our expert team of travel concierges shares his dedication to thoughtful planning and firsthand experience, planning everything from beach vacations and cruises to world explorations, and more. Many of our itineraries are inspired by journeys we've taken ourselves, from African safaris to hidden European gems to cruise adventures and resort getaways alike. With deep knowledge and genuine enthusiasm, we design every vacation as if we were taking it ourselves.

Our team personally tests the cruises, resorts, and tours we recommend, traveling everywhere from Italy to the Galápagos to ensure every detail meets our standards.

That was the first time I decided to go to Europe on my own with my grandson without a group. Alex managed our trip with amazing precision - trains, adorable bed and breakfast hotels in the best spots of Florence, Venice and Milan. Mind it was done on a budget. I"m very grateful for what you"ve done and looking forward to do it again with your assistance.
