About
Hello! I'm Sólrún, a seasoned Travel Expert based in Iceland, here to support travel advisors like you with high-level itinerary design, administrative support, and seamless client and vendor coordination. I bring over a decade of hospitality and planning expertise, a passion for excellence, and a proven track record of success, so you can focus on growing your business while I handle the details.
My Day to Day: In my full-time role, I work directly with clients and global travel advisors to design unforgettable journeys throughout Iceland. I handle everything from creating bespoke itineraries to booking accommodations, transportation, guides, activities, and dining, ensuring every element aligns with the client’s vision and budget. I continue managing the trip through to completion, handling invoicing and communications with care. As the top performer on my team, I maintain the highest sales numbers and stellar client feedback, and specialize in luxury travel. I’m excited to bring that same excellence to your business during my evenings and weekends. (Bonus: Since I am Iceland-based (GMT), my weekday availability aligns with late morning to afternoon in US time zones, ensuring I am here to help while you are working!)
Skills & Expertise: Beyond travel planning, I bring a wide range of transferable skills: I’ve owned a wedding planning business, managed boutique hotel events, and led project management and consulting initiatives. Planning, organization, communication, and client service are my superpowers that have been key in my career. Whatever your workflow, I’m confident I can plug right in and make things smoother.
Working Together: Collaboration is key. I take the time to understand your goals, your clients, and how you like to work. Whether you prefer email, shared docs, or scheduled calls, I adapt to your style so our partnership is efficient and stress-free. I'm here to support your success, and I do it with a smile.
Let’s connect and explore how I can be a valuable extension of your team!
