All Inclusive and Honeymoon Travel Specialist

Eagle Beach, Aruba
Eagle Beach, Aruba

My passion for travel and my desire to help others discover the world have been the driving force behind my journey as a travel advisor. With over 15 years of experience in the travel industry, I've had the privilege of serving a diverse clientele and creating unforgettable travel experiences for them. I understand the unique needs and desires of different travelers, and I take great pleasure in crafting personalized itineraries to suit their preferences.

Whether you're honeymooners in search of all-inclusive resorts in the tropical paradises of Mexico and the Caribbean, retired couples yearning for the luxury of a cruise, families in pursuit of family-friendly resorts, or cruisers seeking fun in the sun or adventure in places like Alaska, I'm here to make your travel dreams a reality.

One of my specialties lies in crafting seamless, hassle-free vacations. I am a full-service agent, capable of booking every aspect of your trip, from flights and accommodations to excursions and activities. For those who prefer traditional methods, I send out detailed paper documents with all the necessary information you need. Alternatively, for the tech-savvy travelers, I offer the convenience of an online platform where you can access all your travel information with a simple click of a link.

Having traveled extensively throughout the Caribbean, I bring firsthand knowledge of many of the stunning islands. The turquoise waters, soft sand, and the warmth of the people in this region have always held a special place in my heart. It's a joy to share my expertise and experiences with my clients to help them make the most of their Caribbean getaways.

I hold certifications from the Jamaica Tourist Board, Sandals, Mexico, ASTA (American Society of Travel Advisors), Viking, and AM Resorts, and more. This extensive training allows me to offer you the highest level of service and expertise.

One destination I have a deep affection for is Aruba. I've visited this island numerous times, even forming meaningful friendships with the locals. This close connection allowed me to go the extra mile for one of my clients, arranging for them to be warmly greeted and shown around the island by our local friends. They also had the chance to give back by volunteering at an orphanage during their stay.

I've had the privilege of traveling with my family, going on solo adventures, and exploring the world with my husband. This personal experience has equipped me with the knowledge to guide you through every step of your journey, from navigating airports to choosing the best accommodations.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my job is problem-solving. I once assisted a client whose dog decided to snack on their passport just 24 hours before their departure. Through extensive research and diligent efforts, we successfully rebooked their trip and obtained a new passport, ensuring they didn't miss out on their dream vacation.

Beyond my love for travel, I'm an avid reader, a music enthusiast with a wide range of tastes, and a doting grandparent. These passions help me stay well-rounded and attuned to the diverse interests of my clients.

It's my genuine pleasure to make the travel planning process fun, easy, and stress-free for you. Let's embark on a journey together and create memories that will last a lifetime. Your dream vacation is just a phone call or email away, and I'm excited to make it a reality for you.

Best of the Best

Reviewed By Angela - Manor, PA | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Chrissy was excellent! She planned my first trip to Mexico for a girl’s trip. We were able to stay at two different resorts so that we could see the perks of an adult only resort and a family friendly resort. We didn’t have to worry about anything. Chrissy helped us get all of our paperwork done ahead of time, she gave us a clear understanding of when payments were due, and made sure that we had all of our updated flight and travel information throughout the trip. We couldn’t have done it without her! She made it the most enjoyable travel experience which helped us relax.

Chrissy not only found us the perfect place to stay for our 10 year anniversary, she took all the stress out of booking a trip in the midst of the pandemic! We were promptly provided all our travel itinerary, kept up to date with changing Covid protocols, and never needed to bother with "boring" logistics. During our travel, Chrissy was always available via text/phone and ensured we got to our destination safely and without any surprise obstacles. The trip was amazing and not having to deal with anything was priceless!

Chrissy = BEST. DECISION. EVER!!!

Reviewed By Hanna N. - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
I cannot express enough how thankful I am for Chrissy with Escape Reality Travel! My husband and I were looking to go on an anniversary trip. We were definitely a little last minute on the planning front and reached out to Chrissy on a whim. BEST. DECISION. EVER!!! We NEVER would've dreamed of going to the Caribbean.. we were just looking at places in the states. AND to top it all off, we hardly had to do anything at all in preparation for this trip. Especially in the midst of Covid, I can't imagine what it would've been like trying to do something like this without Chrissy. We practically got Covid tested and packed, and she literally did EVERYTHING else! We are already looking forward to using her for any future trips we take. With Escape Reality Travel you are guaranteed over the top customer service, tonsssss of destination options, great communication, and a memorable trip with a completely stress-free planning process!! Can't recommend her enough!

Chrissy was great to work with! She was quick and responsive when helping us plan our honeymoon, and she was available to help while we were away on our trip!

AMAZING 25th Anniversary Trip

Reviewed By Theodore - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Montego Bay ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Chrissy planned our 25th wedding anniversary. Our 25th was right in the middle of COVID so as soon as the island reopened our trip was planned. Chrissy did all of the hard work for us. We simply told her we wanted to celebrate our anniversary, and she did the rest. Chrissy made sure we were well taken care of from the moment the plane door opened in Montego Bay. We had someone waiting for us as soon as we exited the aircraft and the rest of the trip was magical. She even had our Butlers set up a romantic lunch in a tropical paradise at our resort. If you are looking for a stress free vacation, I highly recommend you give Chrissy at Escape Reality Travel a call!

Reviewed By Jono - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
The decision to work with Chrissy was an easy one. We gave ideas of what we might want to do and she delivered with mulitple options. Due to the new baby on the way we wanted a relaxing trip to the beach. We decided on the bahamas and from there everything was taken care of. Chrissy made a package that was affordable and all inclusive. Even during COVID this trip felt too easy. We would highly recommend Chrissy and will use her again in the future.

Stress Free Baby Moon!

Reviewed By Liz W. - Cumming, Ga | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
My husband and I used Escape Reality for our recent baby moon to Punta Cana! We knew we could trust Chrissy with this trip because she has planned many trips for us in the past, like our honeymoon, trips to Aruba, cruises, etc. One of our favorite things when working with Chrissy is that you can tell she is very knowledgeable about the resorts and always puts so much thought into her recommendations based off of our asks and budget. She also goes above and beyond not just leading up to the trip, but even on the days of your travel. Chrissy personally texted us to let us know that our gate had changed and even when there were any flight time changes. She also sent us a detailed itinerary and informative packet leading up to the trip with all the info we would need and was available to answer any questions. Overall, we would highly recommend using Escape Reality to plan your next trip to make your life easier and to have an expert help make your experience of your vacation top tier.

WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY TRIP~

Reviewed By Carol A. - Murrysville, PA | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
My husband reached out to Chrissy at Escape Reality Travel as a Birthday Surprise for me! Six days and five nights in Jamaica at Sandals South Coast. Chrissy took care of every detail of the trip. Her recommendations were spot on and when she suggested a room upgrade...well let's just say we are thankful b/c our room was fantastic with great views and steps from the pool and beach. Her dining recommendations took into consideration my food allergies and the food was amazing! It had been years since we had traveled outside of the US and Chrissy put us at ease with her detailed instructions on navigating customs and even showing us how we could get through quicker using the MPC app.
Chrissy was patient with our questions and enthusiastic for our trip.
We had a great time and we already have Chrissy working on our next trip...thinking about the Bahamas next ;)
Thank you Escape Reality Travel for making my birthday the best!!
