Boston-based Luxury Travel Advisor | Fora Travel

Travel Planning Rooted in Personal Knowledge

​

I’m Dr. Luba Gankin, founder of Primavera Dreams Travel and an independent travel advisor of Fora Travel. Having lived in France and worked extensively throughout Italy, I bring firsthand knowledge of both countries, native-level French, fluency in Italian, and a deep understanding of European culture and hospitality.

My years of planning complex destination celebrations have also taught me how to manage every detail with precision, anticipate logistical challenges, and create experiences that feel effortless to my clients.

Where Will Your Next Journey Take You?

"...Luba made our trip special and seamless.

She helped us choose the fantastic itinerary in Provence, France; handled every detail of the booking and day trips; recommended and secured our restaurants along the way; and recommended the perfect hotel in Nice –

Le Negresco - and secured wonderful perks, including complimentary breakfast and an upgraded room, that made our stay even more special. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Highly recommended!" - Victor, Boston.
