Meet Your Trip Planning Expert
Hi there – I’m Monique Skidmore, an award-winning professor of cultural anthropology and Europe travel specialist (including being certified by the Italian National Tourist Board as a “Travel to Italy Specialist.”)

With a deep academic background and decades of real-world travel experience, I bring a unique perspective to trip planning—one that blends history, culture, and immersive local experiences to create truly unforgettable journeys.
I’ve spent years studying and experiencing the diverse traditions, histories, and landscapes of Europe. My expertise has taken me from the ancient ruins of Greece to the Renaissance heart of Italy, the fairy-tale villages of France, and beyond. I have an insider’s knowledge of its unknown stories, authentic experiences, and best-kept secrets.
Through my Take Me to Europe Tours tour company, and my Take Me to Greece, and Trip Anthropologist travel planning websites — I’ve helped thousands of travelers craft bespoke itineraries that go beyond the tourist experience. Whether you dream of a slow food journey through Tuscany, an island-hopping adventure in Greece, or a deep dive into the cultural wonders of Spain and France, I curate travel plans that match your style, interests, pace, and budget.
Let’s bring your dream trip to life!
