After visiting 5 continents and 27 countries and territories, and sailing on nearly 40 cruises across 6 different cruise lines, it occurred to me that the experience I have could be helpful to others when planning their vacations.  And so Vacation Stan was born with the simple mission of improving your life by providing well planned travel experiences.

My passion is ocean cruising, but I also appreciate all that river cruising and land journeys have to offer.  Every cruise line and even every ship within a line has its own personality.  My experience will help you determine which line and which ship fits your unique needs.  For those cruise lines that I haven’t sailed on, I’ve done ship tours and completed in depth training to gain the knowledge needed to provide you the best guidance for your cruise vacation.  I’m continuing to expand my knowledge base, but as of this writing I’ve achieved certifications from 9 ocean cruise lines and 3 river cruise lines.

If cruising isn’t for you or maybe you’ve cruised and you want to spend more time at one of the wonderful ports you’ve visited, I can provide valuable guidance for land trips as well.  From Hawaii to the Caribbean, the Bahamas to Mexico, I can find the perfect location that’s just right for you.

I would love the opportunity to share my passion for travel and give you the personalized service you deserve to make your next travel experience truly memorable.
