Meet Rachel Gordon, CEO & Founder of IMERA Luxury Travel

About IMERA Luxury Travel

My planning style is highly personalized and relationship-driven. I take the time to understand what matters most to you—whether that’s celebrating a milestone, traveling with multiple generations, or creating unforgettable memories with your children.

From complex, multi-room bookings to private villas and custom global itineraries, I handle every detail with a white-glove, concierge-level approach. My clients value honest guidance, expert recommendations, and the confidence that someone is advocating for them every step of the way.

I'm Rachel Gordon, a Top 100 Fora Travel Advisor and founder of IMERA Luxury Travel. I specialize in planning personalized luxury and family travel around the world -- from tropical escapes and luxury hotels to once-in-a-lifetime bucket list experiences.

I founded IMERA as a reflection of both my professional background and my own life as a traveler and mother. The name comes from my twin daughters, Izzy and Maddy, and the idea of creating “a new era” of travel, one that combines exceptional luxury with warmth, care, and meaningful discovery.

Before launching IMERA, I spent years in healthcare, where precision, organization, and trust were essential. Today, I bring that same mindset to every client relationship. My goal is to anticipate needs before they arise, remove stress at every step, and ensure that each trip unfolds effortlessly, from the first conversation to your return home.
