Fantasy Travel, Real-World Magic
Custom fantasy vacations to New Zealand, Europe, Japan, and beyond—for travelers who crave epic adventures rooted in the stories they love.
Your Story, Your World, Your Journey
At Flights & Fables, I design immersive, story-driven vacations inspired by legendary worlds and beloved fandoms. From Lord of the Rings adventures in New Zealand to castle tours across Europe and anime journeys through Japan, I help you travel like the main character of your favorite epic.

How It Works
Whether it’s a week-long getaway or a month-long adventure, enjoy a worry-free, magical vacation like never before. From designing custom itineraries to managing seamless bookings, I handle as much—or as little—of your trip planning as you need.
01. Discovery Call
I begin with a 45-minute consultation to explore your travel preferences, interests, and dream destinations. Whether you're drawn to real-world wonders, fantasy locations, or both, I'll tailor your journey to bring your vision to life.
02. Custom Itinerary Design
Next, I design a custom travel itinerary just for you, selecting handpicked accommodations and booking exclusive excursions and event tickets. All the logistics are taken care of, so you can relax and enjoy your journey.
03. Booking and Preparation
Once your itinerary is set, I take care of all the final details—from booking accommodations and exclusive excursions to securing tickets and tours. Everything is prepared in advance so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying your upcoming adventure with peace of mind.

Fantasy Travel
Imagine standing in the Shire, gazing at the misty peaks of Middle-earth, or tracing the halls of Hogwarts at the Harry Potter Studio in London. Picture yourself exploring ancient castles that whisper of fairy tales or walking the paths of Westeros. Fantasy travel transforms these dreams into reality, crafting magical adventures that transport you beyond the pages and screens into the heart of the stories you love.
Europe Vacation
Picture yourself sipping espresso in a Parisian café, standing before the Colosseum where history echoes through time, or wandering through a Swiss village straight out of a fairy tale. Whether exploring Istanbul’s vibrant bazaars or tracing the footsteps of legends, Europe invites endless discovery and adventure.

New Zealand Adventure
Envision standing at the edge of a towering fjord, waterfalls tumbling into the mist below. Feel the earth tremble beneath your feet as Rotorua’s geysers erupt in a mesmerizing dance of steam and fire. In New Zealand, nature’s wonders come to life in ways that defy imagination.
River Cruising in Europe
Think about yourself gliding past medieval castles, vibrant floating markets, or lush jungle shores—all from the comfort of a river cruise. Whether exploring Europe’s storied waterways, Asia’s timeless rivers, or the hidden gems of the Americas, each day brings a new landscape, a new culture, and a new story to uncover.
Explore Japan
Embark on a journey where ancient traditions intertwine with fantastical landscapes. From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo to the historic pathways of Kyoto’s geisha district, Japan offers a harmonious blend of modern marvels and timeless beauty. Explore the majestic castles reminiscent of samurai legends, wander through shrines enveloped in myth, and experience the vibrant festivals that bring age-old stories to life.

Testimonials
Rocky helped us through every step of our journey. We felt so taken care of and his level of communication was superb. He had answers to every question he had with great examples of what to expect while in New Zealand. Rocky coordinated with my partner (in secret) to find the best place for a marriage proposal. We ended up getting engaged on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and it was something really special. Rocky really went above and beyond to make us feel taken care of.

Rocky’s response by far the most professional, timely, and friendly, so we booked through him, and I’m so glad we did! Rocky was so supportive through every part of the planning and travel process. He met with us over video call and answered every question we had at any time. We felt guided both creatively and logistically. I’ve told so many people about how our honeymoon planning/booking process was a breeze, and that’s all thanks to Rocky. I would seriously recommend him to anyone! He is passionate and knowledgeable, and he really cares about crafting one-in-a-lifetime experiences for his clients. He’s there from planning to departure AND return!
