It is and has always been my goal to provide an exceptional vacation planning experience that is tailored to each individual traveler... because there is only 1 of you. I draw on my many years of vacation planning and design, along with my travel experiences, both professionally and personally.

We begin with an in-depth consultation where we will discuss your hopes and dreams for the trip, previous travel experiences, travel preferences, and more. I then design an itinerary customized for you, and work with you to make any necessary adjustments. Once I have a good understanding of your needs, I begin the detailed process of planning.

​​After you depart for your journey, I will continue to monitor your trip to ensure smooth travel. Once you have returned,  we will discuss what you enjoyed most and how you felt about your vacation overall so we can ensure the next adventure is even better.

​The Customized Planning Services investment below covers supporting you from the initial phone call until you return home. It covers my research time for discovering the best options for your trip; working with only the best Tour Operators and Cruiselines to develop a customized itinerary based on your travel preferences, discussing these options with you, the confident and accurate reservation of your journey and the access to a Travel Professional for questions until you have returned home.
