Who We Are
Tiffany Figueiredo
Founder, Global Travel Advisor
What is London’s hottest restaurant? Where is Italy’s most charming seaside town? When is the best time to see Africa’s Great Migration?
Questions like these are ones Tiffany sussed out in her decades-long career as an award-winning writer and editor on numerous luxury lifestyle and travel publications. She uses her vast destination knowledge, high-level contacts and considerable research skills to create perfectly customized trips for each client — all with a dash of her favorite elements: good food, hotels with soul, a connection to the local people and the restorative power of nature.
She is a hands-on advisor, who knows her clients well and is involved in every aspect of the planning process. She and her team are accessible to traveling clients 24/7 via multiple channels.
When not traveling to new places or revisiting old favorites, Tiffany divides her time between hemispheres, with home bases in both Texas and South Africa.
Phillissa Russell
Travel Coordinator
Phillissa worked for many years as a high-level corporate paralegal. When she wasn’t poring over legal contracts and assisting with mergers and acquisitions, she explored the world and has visited more than 60 countries with regular trips to Italy.
She is an avid adventurer and scuba diver and loves New Zealand, Southeast Asia and the US National Parks. Animal encounters in the Galápagos Islands and Africa along with trips to India, Uzbekistan and Northern Pakistan are some of Phillissa’s favorite travel memories.
We value her attention to detail, ability to see all of the “what ifs” and excellent logistical, legal and organizational skills.
Phillissa calls Dallas, Texas, home.
