What does “over the top” travel mean to you? Is it the exclusive use of Sponza Palace for a performance by the Croatian Philharmonic Orchestra, privatization of the Egyptian Pyramids of Giza for sunset, or a food experience set in a 1,700-year-old Mediterranean metropolis? For Kristin Chambers, it is all of this and more. Through her modern-day luxury travel consultancy D.A. Luxury Travel (launched in 2006), she and her team cater to discerning vacationers who don’t just want to take trips – they want to experience travel. Her tailored-to-you itineraries for high-end clients boast the ultimate wow factor thanks to Chambers’ Black Book of powerhouse insiders across the globe. With 18 years of experience, it’s her “reach for the stars” conceptualizing that has her on Conde Nast’s Top Travel Specialists list, Travel & Leisure’s A list of advisors for “over the top trips,” and in the Top 25 All Star Travel Advisors by Travel Agent Magazine, and an invite-only Virtuoso Culinary & Ultraluxe membership, to name a few.
In 2015, Chambers wanted to create a space in which seasoned and emerging travel advisors could evolve the industry together. And so TRAVELLUSTRE was born, an industry leading host agency.

Thanks to her background as a fashion designer, Mary Beth knows beauty when she sees it. After years in the industry, she has cultivated a keen eye on how much there is to discover in this world. While appreciating it all, she finally decided that her favorite part wasn’t the fabrics, styles, and designs. Instead, it was seeing the world, meeting people and experiencing different cultures. She’s eager to share her knowledge and enthusiasm with you, as you work together to create wonderful travel experiences.
Mary Beth’s career and personal travel spanned the globe through her years as a fashion designer. But it was so much more than just a quick trip here, a weekend jaunt there.

Through her time sourcing factories and suppliers at her brand’s base in Hong Kong, she expanded her knowledge of Asia with several visits each year. She also spent a lot of time in France, her dog Bella in tow, which eventually landed her the feather in her stylish cap as a certified France Specialist with Atout France, an arm of the French Tourism Development Agency. In addition, Mary Beth has enjoyed extensive travel throughout the Veneto area of Italy, with Venice as her “favorite magical place.”
