A LITTLE ABOUT ME . . .

STEPHANIE AVELLO
Founder, Via Avello | Fora Travel Advisor
Travel has shaped nearly every chapter of my life — from a childhood road trip across California, to mission travel through Europe and the South Pacific in my teens, to two decades of exploring the world alongside my husband and three children. That love of discovery is what led me to build Via Avello: a travel advisory rooted in the belief that the best trips aren't just booked, they're crafted.
My work today spans three passions. I plan exceptional cruise experiences — from ocean voyages to river journeys — with the relationships and know-how to secure the right ship, the right suite, and the right itinerary. I coordinate high-level executive and corporate travel for clients who expect precision, discretion, and zero wasted time. And I specialize in multi-generational trips, bringing grandparents, parents, and kids together seamlessly across ages, interests, and paces — because those are often the trips that matter most.
Whatever the occasion, my approach stays the same: thoughtful, detail-driven, and entirely personal. I've traveled across five continents myself, from the fjords of New Zealand to the blue caves of Montenegro's Kotor Bay — experience I bring directly into every itinerary I design. I don't recommend anything I wouldn't choose for my own family.
When I'm not planning someone's next adventure, you'll find me hiking, chasing down a good food festival, or losing an afternoon to a jigsaw puzzle.
