travel design BY GABRIELLE brechner

Gabrielle is a born and bred NYC girl living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn with her husband and two children. Her guiding principle in designing travel is to strike the perfect balance between luxury and authenticity, and to truly understand the style, wants and needs of each individual client.

Prior to working in the travel industry, she spent 25 years in hospitality and live concert & theatre production. Much of that experience informs her work today.

Gabrielle wants to leave every place she’s traveled feeling the tiniest bit of it has entered her DNA. She has wandered over fifty countries and five continents in search of the best adventures, food, hotels, museums, ruins and beaches...

-travel makes the world smaller - in the best way.

-travel opens us up to new experience, new life.

-travel restores us, even when it exhausts us.

At Watch Our Step, our relationships set us apart from the pack.

We spend a significant amount of time developing in-real-life connections with suppliers from
every corner of the earth, and at every tier of travel - the only prerequisite for our partners
is that they must represent authentic, premium, quality travel experiences.

Our Preferred Partnerships represent the Gold Standard in the travel industry,
which means our clients get treated like the VIPs that they are.

Top of the list for upgrades, hotel credit, complimentary breakfast, VIP status…
those are just some of the amenities we can access.

A few (but definitely not all) of our partnerships include:
