Meaningful journeys designed for the curious traveler — where connection, authenticity, and adventure come together.
travel beyond the obvious
I help travelers design experiences that go deeper than the guidebook — trips that reflect who you are and how you want to feel. With thoughtful planning and trusted global partners, I handle the details so you can focus on what truly matters: being present in the moment.
I’m Sarah, founder of Elwella Travel. I believe travel should move you — not just from place to place, but in how you see and connect with the world. My role? To design journeys that feel intentional and inspiring — and handle every detail so you can be fully present in the moments that matter.
Inspired travel begins with curiosity — and someone who listens.

Sarah is a fantastic travel advisor. We had such an amazing honeymoon. We would not have been able to travel through Italy without her knowledge and planning. Her detailed proposals give you options to choose from so you feel like you’re building your own trip. She’s flexible and incredibly accommodating. While planning our wedding and honeymoon, Sarah let us know she would be traveling to Nepal. While she was away she was still accessible and helped add activities in Capri, Maiori and Tuscany. She was even available during our trip to book last minute reservations or spa treatments.
"She was incredible and we cannot thank you enough for making our honeymoon SPECTACULAR! Grazie Mille!"

Sarah booked all tickets, trains, hotels, and all our entertainment including Edinburgh Zoo, beach day in Scotland, London Eye, borseback riding, Shakespeare Theatre, several tours, Notre Dame, afternoon at Luxembourg Garden sailing boats, lunch at the Eiffel Tower with a tour to the top, and of course Disney for the kids, but still plenty of time for us to relax and spend time with friends.
I honestly couldn't be happier with Sarah's service and offer this recommendation without hesitation
"If you've ever traveled with kids, you'll know they need to be kept entertained, and Sarah did an outstanding job."

We cannot recommend Sarah highly enough! She expertly planned a complex, two-week adventure through Italy for our group of 11, and every single detail was flawless. From the moment we arrived in Rome to the final views of the Dolomites, Sarah’s thoughtful planning, insider knowledge, and hands-on support made this a trip we will never forget.
Thanks to Sarah, we were able to sample so many different sides of Italy—from the historic and cultural to the adventurous and scenic. She took care of everything and was always just a message away if we needed anything while traveling. For anyone planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip—especially with a large group—Sarah is the best of the best.
