UNLOCK YOUR TRAVEL POSSIBILITIES…

TRAVEL IS PERSONAL. SO IS THE WAY I PLAN IT.

After two decades as Chief Concierge of a New York City luxury hotel, I built Christine Serio Travel on a simple conviction: the most meaningful journeys are those designed entirely around you.

I specialize in independent, custom travel for clients throughout Europe — with a particular devotion to Italy, where I have traveled extensively for nearly three decades. What I offer is not a package. It is a partnership.

WHY USE A TRAVEL ADVISOR?

Your Time is Precious. Spend It Wisely.

The internet offers options. A trusted advisor offers something far more valuable: discernment.

As a Virtuoso-affiliated advisor with Brownell — the nation's oldest luxury travel agency — I bring preferred access to the world's finest hotels, private experiences unavailable to the general public, and a network of trusted on-the-ground partners in destinations across Europe.

What my clients receive is not simply a well-organized itinerary. It is the confidence of knowing that every detail has been considered — and that someone who genuinely cares is available before, during, and after your journey.

THE DISCOVER MORE PROCESS

Every journey begins with a conversation. In our initial Discover More consultation, I take the time to understand not simply where you wish to go — but how you wish to feel when you are there.

From that foundation, I design an itinerary that reflects your pace, your passions, and your vision of the ideal travel experience. No templates. No shortcuts. Simply travel — planned with care.

Together, we will discover what that means to you in our Discover More process:

DISCOVER: Together, we will uncover your vision for the perfect trip.
DESIGN: We work hand-in-hand to develop an itinerary, perfectly tailored for you.
CONNECT: Your reservations are finalized, but your travel advisor team remains engaged with you and our partners.
EXPERIENCE: Bon Voyage! Discover the difference while traveling ‘The Brownell Way.’
SHARE: Welcome home! We relive the magic of your trip together through a post-trip interview.

We have worked with Christine before, and we value her creativity, follow through and attention to detail. She helped us shift our itinerary on the fly after extreme heat affected availability of planned activities. We are huge fans of Christine!

Charles F. - May 9, 2026

It was an absolute joy working with Christine. She was spot on with all the recommendations and the adventure packed itinerary she created for my visit to Rome. All requests were met and she made the trip effortless for us to enjoy. The tour guides she provided us were each extraordinary. I was overly impressed with the knowledge they offered. I have and will continue recommending her to others.

M & M - March 18, 2026

We cannot begin to explain what a fantastic experience we had working with Christine! My mother is older and we elected to do a private tour of Italy as opposed to using an organized luxury tour company as we have in the past and Christine planned and executed the BEST vacation we have ever taken. We had open communication regarding all aspects of the trip. From the moment we started our adventure, it was a DREAM vacation. Our hotels were sublime and her restaurant recommendations were top notch. Even the transfers took into consideration my mother's limited mobility but with taste and style. Every guide we had was so knowledgeable and fun. Every excursion was a once in a lifetime experience! Her connections in Italy were invaluable when I forgot my Mom's rollator at the airport...there was a solution in 20 minutes. We will never plan a trip without Christine's assistance again...we consider her a friend and feel blessed she took such care for our first trip with her!!!!
