Specializing in Europe andOcean and River Cruises

Cruises are my specialty. I love to help first-time cruisers, especially with Alaska cruises.
Travel planning has become more difficult and confusing for the average person, as there are so many options. Sadly, there are scams out there as well. We work only with travel suppliers who have a history of treating our clients well. Your vacation time is precious and we want you to enjoy it
I am there to reduce your stress and give suggestions so you can relax and enjoy your precious vacation time.
I love Virgin Voyages. I sail Cunard every year. Did you know you can often sail transatlantic for about the same price as flying business class?
We can help you with any major cruise line. We work often with Virgin, Regent, Viking, Princess, Celebrity, Azamara, and Holland America.
Places I have traveled to:
- Spain
- France
- Poland
- Germany (love those Christmas Markets!)
- Austria
- Italy
- Iceland
- Norway
- Scotland (several times; it's one of my favorites)
- Ireland
- England (many times)
- Greece mainland and islands
- Argentina
- Uruguay

- Peru
- Falkland Islands
- Rounded Cape Horn
- Torres del Paine (one of the most beautiful places on earth)
- Tierra del Fuego
- Machu Picchu
- Ontario (The Stratford Shakespeare Festival is a must for theater lovers)
- Japan (stayed in a monastery and a Japanese guest house)
- Egypt (took a sailboat called a dahabiya down the Nile

I love working with first time travelers and spending time helping them plan a perfect trip.

Christmas in Germany is Wunderbar!
Last Christmas, we spent in Central Germany. Weimar, Ehrfurt. There is nothing like a German Christmas market. We even bought a tree and put it up--after carrying it back from the Market. Be sure to experience sausage, pretzels, gluhwein (mulled wine), eierpunsch (sort of like egg nog), kartoffelpuffer (potato pancakes) and baumstreizel (fantastic pastry)--but maybe ...
