I discovered my passion for travel late in life when my husband and I took an international work assignment in Southern Germany. Three and a half years later, we returned with memories of European capitals, castles, churches, cobblestone streets, charming villages, inspiring art, local wine and beer, skiing in the Alps, and friendships that continue to this day. We were hooked on travel.
Just a few years later, we were asked “how about Japan?” we didn’t hesitate. With two young kids in tow, we explored elaborate yet peaceful temples, quaint craft towns in the hills, skiing in Hokkaido, and staying in traditional Japanese ryokan.
Australia, Thailand, and New Zealand were our favorite destinations. The landscape in the Outback was unlike any place we’d ever seen. Our trip to Tasmania and Cradle Mountain still ranks as a ‘best ever’ adventure. Hiking on a glacier and snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef were real bucket list adventures.
That was over 20 years ago, and our travel adventures continue. Iceland, Alaska, Costa Rica, Belize, Croatia, Oregon and National Parks for hiking and adventure. The Rocky Mountains and New England for skiing and snowboarding. Family trips for Caribbean Cruises, Disney, Hawaii, and Florida
What's next in 2024? Ireland! Some day - the Galapagos Islands, Africa for Safari, Israel and Antarctica.
Why do I love travel so much? Absolutely the destination and immersion. I also love the research and planning process – sight-seeing highlights and getting off the beaten path. Setting a slower pace to breathe and enjoy. I love helping my clients find their True Direction for travel – whether it’s exploring far-off destinations or just a quick trip to visit family. Give me a call - I'd love to help you find your True Direction.

Our trip to Galapagos was a bucket list dream of a lifetime trip! There was nobody better to take the reins and plan from beginning to end, answer all the questions, and figure out our individuality to make our trip just perfect. From expert guides in Quito to the spectacular cruise on Silversea Lisa made it all flawless and spectacular. She is the BEST!
Boston, MA Copenhagen | Denmark | Europe
Got to see several beautiful cities and had to do a fair amount of coordination between cities. Lisa managed logistics expertly and provided suggestions for every place we went. She was cheerful, positive and thoughtful throughout the planning process.
IL France | Europe
Lisa was easy to work with. Took the time to listen to our specific needs. Very pleasant. Gave us great options on hotels, & we were super happy with our choices. She set up 3 fun tours for us, & made it easy when there was a hiccup with one tour. The detailed itinerary made everything run smoothly. Overall we had an amazing trip. Thanks, Lisa!

Needham, MA Italy ~ Europe
We have worked with Lisa Taub on several trips starting in 2016 on our first European trip together, when we went to Italy. Lisa helped us plan which cities to include, which sites to see based on our interests and likes, hotels to consider (again, after discussing with us our preferences and pricing targets), and travel modes including flights and getting from airport to hotel. She spent substantial time reviewing our preferences and details to consider, and booked all arrangements for us except those we preferred to book ourselves. She also helped arrange various city and site tours. The trip was a fabulous experience and we could not have been happier. Lisa was always very responsive to all our questions and took great care of us. Since then we have booked trips with Lisa to London and Paris, Spain, and most recently Portugal. Lisa was incredibly helpful on all these trips and we highly recommend her services to anyone wanting helpful guidance and assistance with bookings.
Cincinnati, OH France ~ Europe
Lisa at True Direction did a great job of understanding our interests and building an itinerary that was perfect! Easy to navigate, great destinations and hotels, advice on additional activities to plan on our own. Thanks Lisa!
Boston, MA Croatia ~ Europe
Lisa was super easy and great to work with! She took the time to get to know us and what our typical travel had been like. She took our preferences into consideration when putting together itinerary options. We had an extra layer of complexity due to grandparents (living in a different location) also joining our family trip. Lisa was very understanding and accommodating in all the requests and changes we had. The trip was amazing and we will definitely use Lisa again for future travel!
Boston, MA Scandinavia ~ Europe
Working with Lisa was great. She gave us many options and listened to what we were looking for, while always providing great solutions.
