This initial consultation can be completed in person, by phone, video conference, or even email. I will work with you in the way that best suits you and your lifestyle. My ultimate goal is to perfectly understand your vision and to get to know you.

I am committed to planning the perfect vacation for you, based on your preferences, needs, and your desired spending plan. Once you are happy with your trip details, we will proceed to Step 4.

Once your deposit is confirmed, you will receive a detailed itinerary outlining your travel plans and financial specifics. You will receive reminders via email regarding upcoming payments that are due.

Frequently Asked Questions
Travel advisors or travel agents simplify the travel planning process by offering expert consulting to their clients. My job is to make your vacation as stress-free as possible by booking flights, cruises, rental cars, hotels, resorts, activities and anything else you may need.
You should use a travel agent to book your next trip because they can save you time, money, and stress. Travel agents have access to a variety of tools, perks, and deals that you may not be able to find on your own. They can also offer expert recommendations and handle the unexpected based on their experience and knowledge of the travel industry. Travel agents can help you plan out your vacation and see the big picture.
Great question. Travel agents operate off of commissions paid to us by the companies whose services we sell. We do not get paid from these companies until you return from your vacation. Although the majority of our work is done prior to your date of travel. Researching destinations and preparing custom itineraries is a work of art. I vow to pour my heart and soul into your vacation. Therefore, once we pass the initial quote phase most agents charge a service fee. This allows us to be compensated for our time should your vacation plans change.
