Wes Spaniol

Alexandria, VA

Global Travel Agent Expert

Being a travel enthusiast myself I have obtained extensive knowledge in planning incredible and memorable vacations. With every reservation I make I will give special attention to exactly what my clients are looking for and what is important to them. Growing up in Washington DC, I was lucky enough to travel to numerous locations which has led me to become a travel expert! Notably, I was married and lived in Finland which gave me the opportunity to expand my travel knowledge from Western Europe to Scandinavia. Finland is now my second home! I also specialize in creating holidays in Amsterdam and Vietnam. The most rewarding part of working in the travel industry is helping others fulfill their travel dreams. I would love to assist you in planning an experience of a lifetime.

My Reviews

Amalfi and Rome
West was so great in working with us and our many changes (from the dates to the number of people going). He was able to find just what we needed/wanted, even with Italy being the most sought after destination and lots of things being booked or sold out. We had a great family trip and the memories will last a lifetime.

Wedding in Germany
We had no clue of what direction we wanted to go in or where we wanted to go - we just knew we needed to connect with an expert. That's exactly what Wes is!! Not only does he have a wealth of knowledge, but he's also super responsive, personable, & professional. He gave us amazing resort recommendations based off what we were looking for & matched us up with the PERFECT, most incredible resort for our wedding. He provides the absolute top notch service to his people & went above & beyond what we could've hoped for in a travel advisory. We couldn't have done it without him. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND WES AND AVANTI!! . He's hands down our #1 go-to agent for any & all travel!!

3 Trips- All Perfect!
I have worked with Wes on building a total 3 international all inclusive trips (and counting) and I will not go back to trusting Expedia again. He makes building a great trip easy. He is responsive and helpful throughout the process. I love how convenient it is to build a trip and make payments as I go. They have me as a client for life! Thanks for always being Amazing Wes! You’re truly the best travel advisor out there!

Family Cruises
Wesley was great to work with in planning 2 family cruises within a short time frame on 2 different cruise lines. He was able to find us great prices and itineraries, as well as arrange for the multiple rooms to be next to each other or connected and had everything set so we didn’t have to do any extra work for making sure everyone was linked up. Will definitely use him for any future cruises!
