The Architect and Conductor of Your Transformative Journey

Hi, I'm Sylvie Fortier, the founder of Orchestral Light. As a former Air Force officer, technical project manager, and single mom who's lived in over 30 different places, I understand the transformative power of travel. My own journey from corporate burnout to passionate travel curator has taught me that life's too short for ordinary vacations. That's why I'm dedicated to crafting extraordinary, personalized adventures for fellow explorers over 40.


With Orchestral Light, we blend the desire for cultural immersion, soft adventure, and personal growth into harmonious travel experiences. Our mission is to help you rediscover yourself, push your boundaries gently, and create profound connections with the world around you. Let's compose a travel symphony that resonates with your soul and leaves you profoundly empowered.
