We are the Finocchis - and travel is how we love.
OUR STORY
We are a couple from Grimsby, Ontario - right in the heart of west Niagara, between Hamilton and Niagara-on-the-Lake, and we have spent the last 13 years doing something we love deeply: helping families travel.
We come from Italian roots and in Italian culture family isn't just important, it's everything. The table, the stories, the time together. That belief is woven into everything we do. We got into travel because we saw, again and again, what happens to a family when they step away from the noise of daily life and just breathe. Be together. Be present. It’s what we look for in a vacation with our 3 boys, grandparents and other extended family and friends.
That's what we're chasing for every family we work with. Not just a nice trip. A moment where your family feels close again. Where the kids look up from their phones. Where you and your partner take a breath together. Where everyone comes home a little more connected than when they left.
WHAT WE'VE LIVED
We don't recommend places we don't know. Over 13 years we have sailed on many of the world's leading cruise lines, explored the magic of Disney and Universal parks, relaxed at all-inclusive resorts across Mexico and the Caribbean, discovered Europe through guided tours, and stood on the soil of Tanzania on an African safari that changed how we see the world.
Every destination we suggest, every ship we recommend, every resort we match your family to comes from a place of real experience and obsession. We know what it feels like to be there or how our clients have felt there. And we know what it feels like to come home closer because of it.
WHO WE HELP
We work with families of all shapes and sizes — young families taking their first big trip, multigenerational families travelling together, families navigating food allergies or disabilities, couples rediscovering each other through travel, and everyone in between.
We are proud members of Playcation Travel Ltd. of Toronto and are TICO registered — meaning you are protected and in qualified hands from the moment you reach out to the moment you return home. We serve families across Grimsby, the Niagara region, Hamilton, Burlington, Toronto, Oshawa, and all across Canada.
If you are ready to plan a trip that brings your family together — really together — we would love to be part of that story. Reach out any time at finocchi@playcationtravel.com. We are here, days and evenings, whenever you are ready.
