Just got this from clients going to Cork, Dublin, Liverpool, London and Paris next month. I LOVE what I do. I have the best clients!
Your stateroom size really matters. Most people don't pay attention to it and there are some pretty big discrepancies between one of the most commonly known companies and other companies on some rivers. You can upgrade your way out of those tiny rooms but the most common room with the French balcony is nearly this small on some ships.
When my husband and I are in here with our two suitcases, we can hardly move. If you're paying that much for a river cruise, you deserve something bigger than a child's bedroom.
Let me book your river cruise and we will find a right sized cabin for you!

Avalon Waterways is one of my favorite river cruise lines for many reasons. You simply can't beat their window and bed placement!
Let's book you on one of their gorgeous ships! Now booking for 2025 and 2026.

Love it when a client texts me while ON a vacation I planned asking me to help them with their next vacation. I so appreciate the continued trust!
I'm taking a break to be with family, but I'll be hitting the ground running in January. I already have several clients I'm working on for 2025. If you want in, reach out with your dream and let's plan it! My first quarter is getting crowded including my first 2025 river cruise group in March.

I get a lot of people approaching me wanting to know if I have any "magic airfare prices" because airfare continues to be really high. Most of the time, these people have booked everything else with their vacation except their airfare and now they can't find cheap prices and want my help.
Do I have "magic airfare" not available to the public? Yes and No. But, I wouldn't call it "magic". It's more like just professional resources consumers may not have access to or know about.
First of all, I am not compensated when I spend an hour trying to find you cheaper airfare - even if you let me book it. Airlines do not pay commission just for booking a flight. I have professional ideas about how you can potentially find something less than what you have found, but, unless you agree to pay something for my time and expertise, it's not something I jump at the chance to do because most people who want just airfare will never use my services for anything else in the future. I MUCH prefer that you bring me your total vacation idea and let me book at least your hotels and then I'm happy to help you with airfare.
If you come to me and want me to book your hotel, cruise or tour, then I DO have ways I can potentially save you money and will be happy to look for a cheaper airfare for you because my time will be compensated through the booking of other elements.
Sometimes I can package the airfare with a hotel and get what's called an "unpublished fare" and a negotiated hotel price for packaging that makes it cheaper than doing both separately. Sometimes a company might offer a great deal on airfare when you book their cruise or tour and we can get that for you.
Those are ways you can get cheaper airfare. But if you are just looking for cheap airfare because you can't find it yourself, I don't really have any special magic places to book it BEYOND what I know about airfare pricing and how it works. I have been able to find clients cheaper ways to fly based on pr
Black Friday is 30 days away. There are always Black Friday travel deals, however, it's also such a busy time that most Travel Agents aren't really watching and posting most of them. I will be in between Hawaii and London and with my family so I won't be posting much that week, however I will most likely see every sale that lands in my email box.
I can't post them all, but I can watch for you. If you have something you'd like to do in 2025, send me a note and I'll make a list and if I see something that matches your dream, I can let you know.
Most sales will be for cruises, small group tours and packaged rail journeys with the occasional vacation package like flights and a resort together. These will be limited time offers and not something you can spend weeks thinking about. It's like any Black Friday Sale - it's there and then it's gone pretty quickly.
Send me a note if you are serious about a particular 2025 dream that I can turn into a plan for you!

Travel Agent Advantage: I am your travel mentor, travel concierge, travel consulate, travel virtual assistant - whatever you want to call it. Almost all of my current clients had never used a travel advisor before coming to me. And, almost all of them have come back to me for additional planning. Many have said that they didn't realize how much stress using a travel advisor took off of them when it came to planning a vacation.
Sometimes letting a professional handle things is the best way to get something done correctly and well.
Let's schedule a call to talk about how I can help you plan your 2025 travel!

Travel Agent Advantage: I do deep dives into destinations through professional programs so you don't have to. I also sometimes plan my own vacations to learn more about travel ways and destinations for future clients. I'm not just a travel booking engine, I am a professional travel planner who can elevate your experience using resources not always available to the public.

Travel Agent Advantage: bundling often saves you money with your home and car insurance and it can save you money when it comes to travel. Travel agents often have access to unpublished fares which are specifically for bundling with resorts or hotels.
I almost always check the prices as if I was booking everything separately and most of the time, I'm saving my clients money by bundling.
Let's book your 2025 vacation package!
