Meet Elizabeth!

Founder, Luxury Travel Designer


“If I could have learned one thing earlier in life, it’s that travel stays with you forever.”

Growing up in Burlington, VT, with a loving and supporting family, I was comfortable and familiar with my surroundings. I loved the idea of travel, and even spent a summer abroad in high school, but my priorities were always skewed toward something else. College. Career. Building a family of my own. It wasn’t until the passing of my father – a brilliant, entrepreneurial man who spent his life traveling – that I realized my true calling. Over the course of his life, he had visited Italy more than 30 times, and I had never gone with him. With two daughters of my own, I knew right then how important sharing a love and passion for travel could be. Materials fade, but memories of travel are forever. That’s when inspiration struck, and so Rising Tide Travel came to be.

I know there are a lot of different ways to travel, and a multitude of teams that want your business, but take it from someone just as hungry to see the world as you: Rising Tide Travel is your family. We’ll get you where you want to go, and further..

Team Highlights

  • John Battaglino

    Partner, Luxury Travel Designer

  • Explore Italy

    Italy - Food, culture, romance, history, fashion, shopping, beaches, and adventure. Rome, Florence, Milan, Venice, Naples, Amalfi Coast and everywhere in between. The entire "boot", and let's not forget the islands of Sicily and Sardinia, is filled with wonders that you'll never forget. An Italian vacation has it all.

  • Embrace Adventure

    Interested in playing Pinehurst #2 (or any of the other 8 courses in that golfer's paradise), Pebble Beach, Torrey Pines, the Marco Simone Country Club in Rome (home of the 2023 Ryder Cup Championship) or anywhere else in the world? Tennis in Boca Raton Hotel and Club, Kiawah Island, or VIP seats at a Grand Slam event? Or, how about a chalet in the Rockies, Alps, or right here in New England? I like to move.

  • “Twenty-one travelers, eight grandchildren, four families, three friends, and a vacation of a lifetime on one happy island. Thank you!”

    –Carol

  • “I had no idea what I was looking for and somehow you found exactly what I needed. You were right… Paris is always a good idea. Nailed it!!”

    Lauren

  • “Every bite; Every sip; Every ride; Every hotel (especially Mezzatorre)… Perfetto!! Great job."

    – Gracie and Paul

  • “Pinehurst is a golfer’s paradise. We loved it!! Great advice - #4 was the best round of the trip and the Cradle was a blast. What’s next?”

    – David
