With a background in luxury fashion and a natural gift for curation, Nicole Hooker brings a refined, detail-oriented approach to designing unforgettable journeys.

Her experience working with high-end brands taught her the value of precision, aesthetics, and elevated service — skills she now channels into every travel experience she creates.

Nicole’s passion for travel was shaped during her time living abroad, where she spent four months exploring Europe and the UK — meticulously planning weekend getaways for herself and a group of friends. From the historic streets of London to the coastal charm of Positano, her hands-on experience ignited a love for discovering the beauty in every destination and sharing it with others.

Whether it’s a chic Parisian escape, a restorative retreat along the Amalfi Coast, or a tailor-made itinerary for a special occasion, Nicole approaches each trip with thoughtfulness, creativity, and care. She believes luxury travel should feel effortless yet deeply personal — filled with meaningful moments, seamless logistics, and memories that linger long after the journey ends.

Now based in New York and Palm Beach, Nicole brings a fresh perspective, a discerning eye, and a deep commitment to client service. With the support of Global Travel Concepts and Virtuoso’s world-class network, she helps her clients experience the world in style — one unforgettable trip at a time.

Always in my carry-on luggage:

I can’t travel without a book! There’s something about finally being able to unplug at 35,000 feet and getting lost in a story.

On my bucket list:

An African safari has always been at the top of my bucket list. I would love to witness wildlife in their natural habitat, watch the sunset over the savannah, immerse myself in a completely different culture, and maybe even spend a moment up close with baby elephants.

my most memorable travel experience:

My most memorable trip was visiting my Nonno’s hometown in Italy. It’s a tiny village tucked away in the mountains of the Salerno region. It was more than just a vacation — it was a chance to learn about my family history, speak Italian with my cousins, and enjoy the best fresh mozzarella and prosciutto sandwiches I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to go back.
