HELLO

“Every great adventure begins with a dream…”

Welcome to Charm & Awe Travel Co. My name is Amy Grishman and I’ve had a love for travel since studying abroad in college. During that time I spent five months traveling to as many places as my wallet would allow (Spain, France, England, Italy, Portugal, and more!) Fast forward eighteen years and I’m now married to my best friend (we tied the knot in Jamaica!) and I’ve had two boys, both of whom got their first passport stamps before the age of one.
Through my own travels and travel planning for others, I’ve cultivated a passion for experiences that are charming, authentic and soul-filling. Combine this desire with a high attention to detail and I promise you a unique experience that is anything but cookie cutter.
Have you dreamed about traveling through Norway to experience the magnificent Norwegian fjords? Perhaps you’ve always wanted to escape to Sedona and bask in the brilliance of the red sandstone formations or fall under the spell of France’s enchanting wine country complete with romantic chateaus, rolling countryside, and the best wine you’ve ever tasted. Maybe you’re just looking for a direct flight to the whitest sand beaches in the Caribbean where a cocktail will be waiting for you upon arrival.
I want your next trip to surpass the trip of your dreams! Contact me with your ideas and I’ll take care of the rest.

TRIP INSPIRATION

The latest charm & awe travels...

Hawaii

APRIL 2022

Over eleven nights we explored two islands, swam with sharks, explored a canyon and hiked to the top of a dormant volcanic crater, went on an ATV adventure, experienced a luau, feasted on poke next to a magnificent banyan tree, and hunted for the best Mai Tai… and I think we found it! 

Ireland

NOVEMBER 2022

Ireland is an absolutely magical destination! From Dublin to Shannon we toured the exquisite countryside including the Wild Atlantic Way and Cliffs of Moher, enjoyed amazing local pubs, experienced falconry, explored our ancestory with a genealogy expert, and even stayed in a castle!

Italy

February 2023

Italy is one of our top requested destinations and rightfully so!  The history, the cuisine, the scenery, it’s all out of this world. On this particular trip we crossed the country visiting UNESCO site Cinque Terre, wine tasted in Tuscany, toured ancient ruins, had a range of amazing culinary experiences, and so much more.  We can’t wait to assist you in planning for this spectactular country! 

Iceland

October 2023

Glaciers, hot springs, black sand beaches, northern lights, unique culinary experiences, dramatic otherworldly scenery. Iceland will set your heart fire and our clients continuously rave about it, which is why we offer a yearly small group trip. We hope you will join us in the future!

Amy planned our Honeymoon to Hawaii. Amy did a fantastic job and made the process very easy. While in Hawaii, we asked the locals where the best places to eat and go on adventures were. Their responses lined up exactly with Amy’s recommendations. If/when we plan another big trip, we will use Amy’s services again.

Had a fantastic experience working with Amy and Charm & Awe Travel Co. for our trip to Switzerland. Everything she planned was wonderful, our rooms felt like the best the hotel had to offer and the excursions were first class. The app makes it easy to communicate if there are any questions that come up during your trip. I’d highly recommended Amy to anyone planning a vacation looking for that something extra. Looking forward to the next one.

My husband and I highly recommend booking a trip with Amy! She booked our trip to the Greek islands of Mykonos and Santorini with little notice — one week prior to us leaving. Going through Charm & Awe Travel Co. took the stress away from booking flights and hotels and finding the best deals. She was patient and very easy to work with. The night before we were scheduled to fly back home, we decided we wanted to stay another day and Amy made this happen in no time! I will certainly refer other travelers to her and can’t wait to book our next big trip with her help.
