Hello! Thank you for stopping by! I have been in business since 2013 and work hard for every client that I have. I believe that your trip is your trip. While we may not be able to incorporate all your wants into one trip, you and I will plan it together and work until you are satisfied. I have access to many resources which will help me find what works for you.
My agency is a full-service agency. This means that I handle your entire trip—flights, transfers, hotels, activities, travel insurance—anything that you need. We start with a planning session so that I can hear your ideas and what you want to do. I recommend starting to plan 12-18 months before your intended departure time. This will give us the time to plan and put things together. This will also allow us to take advantage of any early booking discounts that may be available with the companies that we are working with.
Our agency does charge service fees. Our planning fee is due before work begins and other fees are due after your first deposit is made.

My specialties are cruising--ocean and river, European travel—escorted or independent, and Sandals and Beaches Resorts in the Caribbean.
If you have a group that wants to travel together, I can work with everyone in the group. This helps keep every guest on the same page with communication, payments, and planning. Of course, every guest’s reservation will be private, but if we are planning a wedding or activities for the group, it is easier if everyone is part of our group.
I look forward to working with you. Let’s start planning your trip today!

Hospital Bridge in Nuremberg, Germany
We recently took a river cruise on the Danube River. We started in Budapest, Hungary and sailed to Nuremberg, Germany. We went to Budapest a few days early and stayed in a studio apartment near the river. We participated in several activities in the city: --a wonderful walking tour of the castle district
--a wonderful museum called the Hospital in the Rock. It was a secure tunnel system in the rock that treated many injured during World War II.
--a traditional music concert and show
We really enjoyed this beautiful city.
After boarding our ship with Viking River Cruises, we visited several cites along the river--Passau, Vienna, Melk, Regensburg, Nuremberg.
We toured each of these old cities, enjoyed the churches and old buildings, and learned of interesting pieces of history.
After arriving in Nuremberg, we stayed a few extra days in a hotel near the Fussganger Zone--a street where only foot traffic is allowed and with lots of shops and restaurants. We visited the Toy Museum, Kongress Hall, the Zeppelin Field, and the museum of the Nazi War Trials.
We were in town too early for the Christmas Markets, but this is always a great time to travel. The weather is cooler, the tourist season is slower, and the Christmas Markets are always so much fun to visit.
When in Europe, walking is the thing to do. Before you go, be sure to build your stamina! We also use public transportation if the distance is too great. You can get a taxi, but they are usually more expensive.
I can help you set up a trip like this anytime.
