We don’t sell packages. We craft custom, experience-driven travel — with care, precision, and personal insight from the places we know best.
We’re a couple who spent over a decade traveling the world together — exploring more than 20 countries, staying in the villas we now recommend, sailing the coastlines on a yachts we now book for clients, and living the exact kind of journeys we help others experience.
From the beaches of the Cyclades to the lakes of Spanish natural parks, from private islands in the Adriatic to romantic travel in Paris — we’ve personally visited every destination we offer. We don’t recommend what we haven’t lived ourselves.
Today, with two children (ages 4 and 8), we travel differently — but no less intentionally. We continue to visit, inspect, and negotiate with every villa owner, hotel manager, yacht captain, and local partner before our clients arrive. Every trip we curate is rooted in trust, firsthand experience, and hand-selected excellence.
Our trained team of multilingual travel concierges operates with the same values we built our business on: authenticity, discretion, and dedication to the traveler — not the supplier
We don’t just plan trips — we live this life.
Every journey we design is shaped by real-life experience, earned relationships, and a deep purpose behind why we do what we do.
We don’t sell trips. We design journeys crafted around people, places, and purpose.
As a global couple and parents, we’ve lived the life of exploration firsthand. Together, we’ve journeyed through 20+ countries, stayed in locations we now recommend, and built trusted connections across Europe and beyond.
Tom spent most of his career in the world of elite private security — protecting high-profile clients, executives, diplomats, and Fortune 500 families across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
From the presidential office in Croatia to international operations aboard private ships, villas, and VIP events, he lived out of suitcases and across time zones — organizing complex logistics and high-risk travel on a daily basis.
But it was in moments of stillness — talking with clients — that he began to notice a problem every one of them is dealing with:
❝These men had everything… except time with their families that truly meant something.❞
They asked:
“How can I teach my kids values while traveling?”
“Is there a way to do more than just luxury — something meaningful?”
“What does it mean to raise children well in this lifestyle?”
Having overcome numerous personal and professional downfalls, Tom attributes his resilience to divine protection—and clarity followed. He understood his next mission:
To leverage his network and expertise to serve families—not just entertain them—through intentional travel.

While Tom was navigating airspace, embassies, and executive movements, Nives was the one coordinating it all behind the scenes.
She booked the villas, secured the tables, managed the yacht crew changes, and chartered last-minute jets. She handled the paperwork. The follow-up. The finesse.
What started as support turned into mastery — and soon, clients were asking her directly to plan their own getaways, family holidays, and couples retreats.
She had a gift for precision — and a heart for hospitality.
Together, they built Par Excellence Travel:
Not an agency. Not a trend.
But a mission-led concierge service for people who want more from their travels — and more for their families.
We believe luxury means more when it’s connected to something deeper.
That family trips can shape character — not just create content.
That a vacation should give back, not just take.
That’s why we partner with local communities.
That’s why we personally vet every destination, every host, every experience.
That’s why our clients aren’t just customers — they’re part of something bigger.We still travel — with our kids (4 and 8), with our team, and with our clients.
We still walk the beaches before we recommend them.
We still negotiate villa stays face-to-face.
And we still believe that meaningful travel can change lives — especially for the next generation.
