About Me

Learn more about EVS Luxury Travel.

EVS Luxury Travel was founded in early 2021 by Emma Stow.

Emma studied History at London University and has lived and worked in the city for most of her life. She's also spent time living in New York and France, as well as always devoting as much time as possible to travelling.

After a career in investment banking and experience running her own successful business, she decided to combine the skills learnt along the way with her love of travel and join Departure Lounge Europe as an independent travel advisor. As a result, EVS Luxury Travel was born.

In a relatively short space of time, EVS Luxury Travel has grown a loyal client base and most new business now comes from personal recommendations.

EVS Luxury Travel aims to provide the best possible customer service, and a VIP experience for luxury travellers.

A little about our affiliation with Departure Lounge

“When I decided to pivot to a career in luxury travel, I wanted to do something a little different. I’d previously booked hotels through Virtuoso; the properties they work with are some of the best. I also love the perks and amenities and expertise that are available through Virtuoso travel advisors. In the UK, Virtuoso is not well known and so I decided to join the small but growing number of Virtuoso travel advisors in the UK and I started my search for the right travel agency to work with.

I’m grateful to have found Departure Lounge, who with impeccably good timing, were just in the process of expanding into Europe and recruiting new European and UK based advisors.

Departure Lounge are an innovative USA Travel Agency, founded by Keith Waldon over 10 years ago, and based in Austin Texas. There are over 250 independent affiliates worldwide, forming a supportive and knowledgeable network of experts. Working with them enables me to plan the type of bespoke journeys I’m passionate about and to enhance and elevate my clients’ experience.”
