Luxury Travel Expert
Meg Nolan van Reesema, FoF Founder
As a veteran Travel Writer, who has traveled to over 45 countries, I have spent years fielding queries on where friends, and friends of friends, should go next. In fact, it was the inspiration behind the title of my blog: Where Next with Meg. But ultimately, its the years of planning, advising and sharing my love for travel with others that has resulted in Friend of a Friend Consulting – A Luxury Travel Agency specializing in custom trip design with an Editor’s eye.
In association with the esteemed Local Foreigner, a Virtuoso Agency, FOF ensures its clients VIP booking services, including air travel, rental cars, speciality elements like wine tours and behind-the-scenes museum visits, plus the all-too-necessary hotel perks and upgrades.
I look forward to meeting with you and discussing your trip desires and then working, hand-in-hand to plan your next trip. Whether it be to a private villa in Italy or a quick getaway to the Caribbean, or even a two-week adventure through Southern Africa, I’m here to help.
Let my firsthand experience and well-versed opinion be a source you can trust.
