To me, there is nothing more exciting than planning and setting off on another adventure. Pre-trip excitement in planning and anticipating your trip can bring happiness and pleasure even before your bags are packed.
Not every where in the world may be opened to travel at this point in time but it will be open again and we will be ready and excited to return to traveling. That does not mean that we can't start planning and looking forward to our trip right now.
If you are ready to travel now: There are places that are open to travelers and I am here to help guide you with all the information you need to be able to travel. Ready to get away? How about a few days or a week at an all inclusive in Mexico or the Caribbean. Now is a good time to travel and discover the United States. If you are looking for a more exotic place I have a few ideas for you.
If you are not ready to travel yet: That is okay I totally understand. We can start planning your trip for next year. If you enjoy cruising you may want to get your next year's cruise deposited soon. Cruises are available all the way into 2023. Cabins are booking up and ships are getting full. All the cruise lines are offering very easy cancellation and refund options. Other suppliers are also offering very lenient cancellation and refund policies and don't forget there is cancel for any reason travel protection.
If you are wanting to get away right now to some where warm and tropical Hawaii, Mexico and the Caribbean are open again. Right now would also be a great time to start planning that land trip to Alaska for next summer. You and your family would have lots of room to spread out and social distance. What about a road or RV trip or a guided tour for next summer to see some of the National Parks or other points of interest here in the US. I took a couple of wonderful road trips with my daughter the summer of 2020 we visited Glacier National Park, Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone. This last summer we flew to Anchorage and did a road trip up to Denali National Park and down to Seward and Homer.
Some people have travel credits from a cancelled trip and future cruise credits from cancelled cruises that they want to use in booking their next trip. I am here to assist you in planning and putting together whatever type of trip that you would like to do. Just give me a call or visit my website and schedule a phone appointment or send me an email. Let's get busy on planning that next vacation for you so you have something to look forward to and anticipate.
Client Testimonials
In Denali Watch out for bears crossing the road!
Our first trip was a short 3 day cruise from our home port in San Diego to Vancouver BC Canada, second was a 12 day cruise to the British Isles and the last one 8 days Alaska. Reba did a wonderful job for these 3 group sailings. I would recommend her services for any travel needs. The group has returned home from our latest group cruise and can get excited about the next in March 2015, a repo cruise 14 day Tampa to Baltimore. Thanks Reba. Renee D. San Diego, CA Reba has helped my friends and family on a number of occasions. She has been a huge help in organizing my daughter's honeymoon cruise celebration. I highly recommend Reba to all my family and friends! Phil K Santee, CA

Also, appreciated all the help she gave on things that I didn't know anything about; like traditional dining vs. anytime dining. The cruise was wonderful. I will be booking with her again!

Reviewed By Viktoria - Portland,OR | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Working with Reba was like working with someone that you knew, she was very responsive from the beginning - even in very early stages when I wasn't entirely sure I was going to take my parents on cruise.... She never behaved as some other agents-like a was wasting their time if I wasn't ready to book.She answered all my questions big or small, paid attention to all details and just made the whole preparation so much easier for me.

My wife and I had been planning an Alaska cruise for years. I had done all the research online for the best prices and dates we wanted. I run into Reba one day and just for the fun of it I asked her to see if she could come up with a better price. I was dumbfounded when she came back with a price almost half of what I found and meet all the requirements we were looking for. She was always available to ask questions and willing to help with everything. I can only say I will go back to Reba for all my travel needs.

Greece tour
Reviewed By Jeff - Keizer, Oregon | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
We recently took a 2-week trip to Greece with Globus Journeys, arranged by Reba (www.vacationsbyreba.com). It was the trip of a lifetime. Greece is stunning in natural beauty and ancient history. The trip included both a land bus tour and a 7-night Aegean cruise. Both were excellent. Service was impeccable. The tour directors and guides were knowledgeable, engaging, and well-organized. The food and accommodations exceeded our expectations. Reba made all the arrangements for us including the flight schedule and sent us useful e-mail reminders before and during the trip. We thank Reba for doing a great job once again in making this trip possible for us. We are already planning for our next trips with her assistance.

Reviewed By Kurt - El Cajon, CA | Traveled to
Reba was a great help when planning our family vacation. My in-laws mainly dealt with Reba but when the rest of us had questions, Reba always got back to them very quickly with good information.

Yet another great job done by Reba
Reviewed By Frequent Floater Group - San Diego California | Traveled to
This cruise was my groups first experience on Princess Cruise Line. We have had Reba book many sailings for us on Carnival for us in the past and she always did a great job.
This time I personally had tons of questions being on a new line to me. Reba made sure each question was answered in a timely manner and took care of special requests I asked of her.
It sure makes travel much nicer to have an agent on your side that provides first class service. She goes above for her clients do what it takes to ensure the vacation is the best it can be
I often tell people that are afraid to use a agent because "they charge more" that that is incorrect. You get the same price and often a better one as the agent will look for that for you.
We already have another group cruise booked for next year as well as Reba is checking on a Alaska sailing for the group to do in 2018.
A huge THANKS for another job well done for all of us.
