The Art of Traveling Well

Your complimentary Horizon & Haven guide

learn more about me

For more than two decades, my work has centered on people, complex decisions and bringing ideas to life across countries and cultures. It taught me to listen closely, ask better questions, think ahead and notice the little things that can make a surprisingly big difference.

Today, I bring that experience to Horizon & Haven, my boutique travel design company based in Indianapolis, along with firsthand perspective and trusted relationships around the world.

More than anything, I want you to come home loving what you made of your time away.

 In Their Words

- Carrie A. 

“I cannot recommend Heather Thompson highly enough. She helped organize an amazing 50th birthday group trip to Secrets Cap Cana, and every detail made the experience feel effortless, thoughtful, and truly special. This getaway was exactly what my husband and I needed, and Heather’s guidance helped make it relaxing from start to finish. 

Her communication was just right, timely, clear, and specific without ever feeling overwhelming. She kept us informed at the right cadence and made sure we had what we needed along the way. To make the start of our trip even more memorable, she arranged for a bottle of bubbly to be waiting in our room, which was such a sweet and unexpected touch. 

We are so grateful to Heather for her thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and calm, detail-oriented guidance. She helped create a wonderful and much-needed adventure that we will always remember. I would absolutely trust her with future travel plans and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a travel designer who truly cares about creating a seamless and meaningful experience.”
