About
Time & Tide Travel

Thoughtfully Planned. Personally Curated.

I'm Jen Donati, founder of Time & Tide Travel, a Boston luxury travel agency affiliated with Virtuoso. I plan custom trips for families, couples, and multigenerational travelers in Boston, across the country and around the world.

My specialties include family travel, Switzerland and Italy, luxury African safaris, and ocean and river cruises. I lived in Switzerland for a decade, speak German and Swiss German, and am a Certified Swiss Travel Expert.

As an independent affiliate of Departure Lounge, one of Virtuoso's top five agencies, my clients enjoy preferred-partner benefits at many of the world's finest hotels, such as daily breakfast, hotel credits, and room upgrades when available.
