“Working with Madison was a dream. I hired her to plan a complex 3-month solo sabbatical across Europe—and she went above and beyond. I gave her a rough idea of the countries I wanted to visit and some general preferences (culture, food, nature, off-the-beaten-path). What she delivered was a beautifully tailored itinerary covering every detail: flights, trains, accommodations, local experiences, and hidden gems—all perfectly aligned with my vibe and budget. Madison handled logistics like a pro, maintained proactive and friendly communication, and provided incredible tools (like a day-by-day Google Sheet with everything organized). What really stood out was how supported and confident I felt—especially as a first-time solo traveler in Europe. She even connected me with people abroad to make the journey feel safer and more personal. She’s professional, creative, thoughtful, and unbelievably good at what she does. I’ll 100% work with her again.”
—Shy, Custom Itinerary Design & Concierge Services Client
“This trip blew me away. Every detail—from the hikes to the food to the pace of each day—was thoughtful, energizing, and exactly what I didn’t know I needed. If you’re someone who loves exploring beautiful places, eating incredible food, and not having to plan a thing, this is your kind of trip. Before going, I was feeling pretty run down and hadn’t taken a real break in months. I figured the change of scenery would be nice, but I didn’t expect to walk away feeling so reset and recharged. The experiences were next level. We hiked a massive sand dune, trekked along cliffside trails with panoramic ocean views, and rode e-bikes on winding coastal paths with the sea stretching out beside us. And every day struck the perfect balance—adventurous without being exhausting. And then there was the food. The best tapas, local wine that somehow tasted even better after a full day outside, and long, relaxed dinners where no one wanted to leave the table. Maddy knew exactly where to take us and had every reservation organized. After a day of exploring, we sat down to incredible meals—no planning, no researching, no coordinating—just show up and enjoy. I’d absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants a break that actually feels like one. It’s for people who love great food, being active, and letting someone else handle the details. I already can’t wait for the next one!”
—Madison, Tarifa Adventure Trip Attendee
“Maddy’s friendliness, outgoing personality, and ability to connect with people of all backgrounds are part of what make her incredible, in addition to her impressive orientation to detail, openness to new ideas and new people, and curiosity about everything in the world.”
—Gabi Horowitz, Head of Marketing at Expensify & former classmate
I had an unforgettable trip to Spain, all thanks to Maddy Adams and her incredible planning and hosting. I was looking for something more personal than the typical large group tours—and Maddy delivered exactly that. Her deep knowledge of the area and local connections made it feel like we were exploring with a friend who just happened to live there. From the moment we met, Maddy was warm, welcoming, and genuinely interested in getting to know each of us. She took the time to learn what I was excited to see and do, and she tailored the experience to match. Our small group was the perfect size—it allowed for real connections, and I’m happy to say we’re still in touch even after the trip. If you're looking for an authentic, meaningful travel experience with a host who truly cares, I can’t recommend Maddy enough!”
—Cara, Tarifa Adventure Trip Attendee
“Maddy is masterful at creating memorable, branded design and client experiences delivered with a concierge touch. She is an exceptional creative project manager, designer, and event/experience curator.”
—Tama Smith, former CEO, Tyra Banks Company and former colleague of Maddy
