Great Advice and Suggestions
Sridevi did a fabulous job of planning some extended time around a Mediterranean cruise I took in the fall of 2019. She had great advice and suggestions regarding tours from the cruise line, and especially helped with booking everything for before and after my cruise. I didn't have to worry about anything, she took care of it all - from private tours to transfers to/from airports and hotels. For a solo traveler, this was perfect. The hotels she booked were great finds, in good areas an in-budget. Even though I'm nervous about being on small boats, I had a great experience in Venice with the private water taxis she booked for me. No problems at all! I highly recommend her service to anyone traveling abroad, whether in a group or traveling alone.

I have planned my next trip with her already
Sri is professional, informative and puts forth the extra effort to make sure you have an amazing experience! She really listens and offers suggestions to best meet your expectations. Sri personalizes your trip and helps to plan it just for you. I have planned my next trip with her already and plan to use her for future adventures!

She is the epitome of gracious, organized, and helpful
Sri Chandra was a pleasure to work with. She is the epitome of gracious, organized, and helpful. She organized a trip for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary to London. In London, we rented a premium luxury yacht and cruised the Thames River to Oxford and back. While cruising the river, we were able to stop whenever we wanted to sightsee, shop, eat at pubs, and enjoy the sights. The boat had a full kitchen and we were able to prepare meals onboard if we didn't feel like leaving. Upon return from Oxford, we moored just outside of London and Sri arranged for private tours to the London Tour, British Museum, and St. Paul's Cathedral. We slept in our boat at night and toured London by day. It's the perfect way to see the English countryside and London.

Amazing Holiday Experience
Sri helped organize our Italy trip covering Rome, Vatican, Naples, Pompeii, Amalfi Coast, Florence, Milan, Pisa, Cinque Terre, Venice over 2 weeks. She is extremely detail oriented, planning the minutest detail perfectly. She offers her suggestions and at the same time lends a patient ear in taking up our views as well, the result of which has been an amazing holiday experience. The best part is that she can curate the experience according to any budget and time, to make it a cherished experience. Our tour consisted of a heady mix of historical site visits, magnificent Basilica/Duomo visits to viewing Art and Architecture at its best and exhilarating view of the Tuscan countryside and sea side visits. Interspersing natural wonders with art & history made us absorb the Italian way of life better. Throughout the planning process Sri kept sharing valuable nuggets of information. Sri ensured an immersive experience and I look forward to planning the next with her in the near future.

Well worth it!
Sri did an outstanding job helping us with booking our first trip to Europe. Because of her we so enjoyed our time on the cruise and getting to experience so much of Europe in just 10 days! We will definitely be using her again when we plan another trip! She always made sure we had the answers to our questions and were prepared for our international travels- packing tips, itinerary, and transportation details. My husband was worried about traveling so far from home but he almost enjoyed the trip more than I did!! We got to go to Venice, Italy and the Greek isles. Well worth it!

About Me
My name is Sridevi Chandra (you can call me Sri), founder and travel designer of Storybook Getaways. My passion is helping families create a lifetime of memories by designing custom vacations that are filled with authentic and culturally enriching experiences.
My husband and I have always shared the idea that we would travel to new places and experience new cultures as often as we could with our boys before they go off to college, and that is what we have started to do. We both feel it is important that learning extends outside the classroom, and in discovering new lands, distinct cultures and diverse people, we broaden our horizons and see just how large - or small - the world can truly be.
My goal is to find your family the perfect trip and then take it one step further with small surprises along the way, by drawing on our contacts with top travel suppliers around the world. I strive towards providing you a stress-free vacation experience with continued support from planning stage all the way until your return home.
Planning your travel ‘story’ is a truly collaborative process. This starts with an in depth consultation with you to discuss your unique passions, interests and travel desires which helps me to put together a personalized itinerary for you. We will work together to refine it and then I will take care of booking all the components of your travel, making it a seamless experience. You will be able to access your itinerary, travel documents and my insider recommendations on a mobile app. I tap into my analytical, organizational and creative sides to take you on your travel journey.
What is your next travel story? Give us a call! Consultation is complimentary!
