If you've been dreaming about Ireland, Scotland, or somewhere across the UK and you're finally ready to actually go, you're in the right place.
I'm Nicole, travel advisor and founder of The Wayfarer Agency, based in Parkland County, Alberta. I specialize in planning trips to Ireland, Scotland, and England and Wales for travellers who are done waiting for the right time and ready to stop leaving that trip on the "someday" list.
Most of my clients are in their 40s and beyond. Professionals, couples, and families who want a trip that actually fits their life. Not a rushed, overcrowded itinerary. A real experience built around what matters to them: the cozy pub in a village they didn't expect to love, the coastal drive that took their breath away, the hotel that finally felt like a proper rest.
The British Isles are my specialty and my passion, but I also design all-inclusive escapes and itineraries across Europe, Mexico, and beyond. Whatever the destination, my approach is the same: thoughtful planning, honest advice, and a trip that feels effortless once you're there.
I started The Wayfarer Agency in 2021, right in the middle of a pandemic, because I couldn't not do this work anymore. Travel has been part of my life since I first went abroad as a teenager, and I've seen firsthand how a well-planned trip can shift your perspective, restore your energy, and remind you what you're actually living for.
At home, I share life with my husband Jason, our two boys, and our fur babies Griffin and Thor. We're either cheering for the Oilers, tackling something around the acreage, or planning the next adventure. Because in our house, travel isn't just what I do. It's how we live.
Let's start planning yours.

"Nicole was great from beginning to end in regards to our large family trip to the Mayan. We gave her the dates and location and she did the rest! Multiple options were provided to us in a clear and concise manner - keeping our large group in mind with varying needs ranging from ages 6 to 72!
Nicole was approachable and available to answer any questions that came up.
Thank you again for planning such an amazing trip for me and my family!"
