Caroline Kline Austin 1 Year of Experience Specialties , ,

Caroline crafts trips with the belief that the most extraordinary ones feel less like rigid itineraries and more like a collection of unexpected moments that blossom into your favorite stories.

Her love for travel began before Caroline could even walk, earning her wings with frequent flights and an upbringing across five states before fifth grade. Constantly on the move, Caroline fostered a deep curiosity about the world—its places, people, and cultures which in turn gifted her the ability to feel at home wherever she finds herself.

With a discerning eye for detail and an adventurous spirit, Caroline is drawn to wandering off the beaten path, discovering hidden gems, and savoring the small details that make every destination unique. Professionally, prior to becoming a travel advisor, she spent a decade as a brand strategist, weaving compelling stories for world-class companies.

Now, she channels that same creativity and precision into designing bespoke travel experiences. For Caroline, exceptional planning means crafting a thoughtful framework for exploration while leaving space for spontaneity—be it an impromptu free afternoon that turns into a cherished memory or a life-changing meal at a tucked-away restaurant only locals know.

What does your perfect vacation day look like?

My perfect travel day starts slowly, with breakfast at the hotel and a double shot cappuccino, before heading out for some fresh air. I love beginning the day with a walk through the city or an activity that gets me moving—whether that’s exploring a new neighborhood or hiking. From there, I’m usually drawn to experiences that feel cultural and hands-on: a cooking class, visiting a local market, or learning something about the place I’m in. I often end the evening with a delicious dinner that lasts late into the night.

How do you prepare for your trips?

I’m a big believer in doing the thoughtful work ahead of time so the trip itself feels effortless. I keep running lists of places I want to stay, neighborhoods to explore, and restaurants recommended by locals. I also have packing lists that make getting out the door easy. Once I arrive, I usually structure each day around one event—maybe a great lunch reservation, a museum, or a cultural experience. Then I leave the rest of the day open to wander, explore, and see where the day leads.

Travel Tip

  • It might sound counterintuitive, but don’t over plan it! I believe the best trips are thoughtfully prepared but still flexible. Those unplanned moments are often the ones you remember most.

Testimonials

I’m someone who normally spends time researching, so I was skeptical about using an agent. Caroline somehow knew exactly what we would like! The hotel and experiences she suggested were spot on.

Working with Caroline made the whole trip SO much easier. She recommended a hotel we never would have found. It felt super personal and exactly like the kind of travel we love!!

Caroline planned an incredible trip for us! We especially loved the cooking class and really appreciated the private transfers. I honestly can’t imagine planning a big trip without her now!
