The Dream Vacations Story
As part of Dream Vacations, we are affiliated with World Travel Holdings, the largest vacation retailer in the United States. Because of this powerhouse association, we can guarantee you exceptional insider savings and special fares. What's more, you can expect a personalized level of service that is not only award-winning but also renowned industry-wide.
When we say, "Dream Vacations Start Here," we mean from the get-go during your initial contact with us. Whether planning a relaxing escape, a girlfriend getaway, a romantic honeymoon or a family reunion, your experience will be hassle-free and tailored to your wants and needs. We are Travel Advisors, and we are here to handle every detail of your vacation planning before, during, and after your dream vacation. The result is a custom travel experience designed personally for you.
About Escape Artist Holidays
We believe travel is more than checking destinations off a list—it’s about perspective, connection, and meaning. The right journey has the power to change how you see the world, how you see yourself, and how you see your place in it.
That belief guides everything we do.
I’m Christy Mahon, founder of Escape Artist Holidays. For 12 years, I’ve helped clients turn travel dreams into seamless, deeply personal experiences—designed around why they want to travel, not just where they want to go.
Travel, Thoughtfully Designed
No two travelers are alike, and no great vacation should feel off-the-shelf. Every Escape Artist journey begins with a conversation—learning about your interests, priorities, travel style, and the motivation behind your trip. From there, I curate a small selection of thoughtfully researched options, refine them with you, and handle every detail from planning through your return home.
My role goes far beyond booking. I act as your advisor, advocate, and project manager—anticipating needs, managing logistics, monitoring details, and stepping in when plans need adjustment. You’ll never be routed to a call center or left navigating changes on your own.
What We Design
Escape Artist Holidays works with travelers planning a wide range of experiences, including:
- Ocean, river, and expedition cruises
- Escorted and independent tours
- Custom itineraries throughout Europe and beyond
- Group travel, reunions, and milestone celebrations
- Honeymoons, anniversaries, and once-in-a-lifetime journeys
We also specialize in theme-based travel—such as food and wine, art and architecture, family heritage, and golf.
Each itinerary is supported by trusted, top-tier travel partners and enhanced with curated experiences, accommodations, and logistics designed to make your journey effortless and memorable.
Why Work With a Travel Advisor?
In an age of endless online information, clarity and confidence matter more than ever. Working with Escape Artist Holidays means:
- Personalized guidance tailored to you
- Expert knowledge of destinations, suppliers, and travel styles
- Advocacy before, during, and after your trip
- Time saved, stress reduced, and value maximized
Simply put: you get to enjoy the anticipation—and the journey—while I take care of the details.
What Our Clients Say
Clients often tell me the same things: that they felt heard, supported, and able to truly relax knowing everything was handled. From complex group trips to highly customized independent journeys, my goal is always the same—to make travel planning feel exciting, not overwhelming.
An Invitation
Whether you’re actively planning or simply beginning to dream, I invite you to explore what’s possible. Travel doesn’t have to be complicated to be extraordinary—it just has to be designed with intention.
Until your next escape,
Christy Mahon
