Csilla Dali
Founder & Lead Travel Advisor
My specialties
Hi, I’m Csilla Dali - travel advisor, experience curator, and founder of Evyssa Vacations.
With over 20 years in the travel industry and a passport full of stamps from 30+ countries, I’ve built more than just a business - I’ve built a life around connecting people to the world in meaningful, unforgettable ways. I specialize in custom-crafted vacations for couples, families, and groups - from romantic escapes and epic honeymoons to girls’ getaways, multigenerational adventures, and those just-for-you bucket-list journeys that leave a lasting mark.
My goal? To make your trip feel like it was made just for you - because it is. I’m known for being fast, meticulous, creative, and fiercely dedicated to my clients. I love planning trips that tell a story - your story - and I thrive on the challenge of transforming ideas and wishlists into seamless, joy-filled experiences.
Throughout my career, I’ve held leadership roles including Chapter President for the Midwest Chapter of the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), and was honored as ASTA’s Young Professional of the Year. I’ve been featured in industry publications, recognized with multiple sales awards, and continue to mentor new travel professionals — because I believe in building a future for this industry that’s as strong as its stories.
I personally vet many of the destinations, tours, and properties I recommend - so what you get isn’t just expertise, but first-hand insight and thoughtful guidance. I collaborate with a trusted global network to ensure your trip includes not just logistics, but access, comfort, and wow moments you didn’t even know were possible.
If you’re ready to skip the cookie-cutter and dive into something personal, memorable, and exciting - I’m here to make it happen.
Let’s design something unforgettable, together.

Beyond the Icons: Discovering Australia Through Aboriginal Eyes
I’ve been planning trips for my clients for two decades now, and Australia has always been one of those destinations I felt I needed to understand more deeply.
