Booking Trips Around the World

There's nothing I love more than a good plan. For years, I have been creating travel itineraries for my family and friends as well as their family members and friends. I design the plan, and then I always create a back up plan just in case one of the original ideas falls through.

Recognizing my passion for traveling and for helping others see the world, I decided to take the next step forward and become a professional travel agent. I specialize in booking trips throughout the United States and Europe, and my favorite destinations include:

  • New York City — New York City is the largest city in the country, and there's so much to see and do when you visit. I like to create personalized itineraries for the city based on my travelers' interests.
  • Washington D.C. — The nation's capital city is an iconic vacation destination. I enjoy creating itineraries that include notable attractions, such as the White House and the Lincoln Memorial, as well as lesser-known museums and educational experiences.
  • Florida — Florida is the perfect family-friendly destination because it is filled with sunshine, beaches and theme parks. I'm a Disney College of Knowledge graduate, and can create customized vacation packages for my clients who want to meet Mickey Mouse.
  • London, England - from history to art to outdoor adventures to amazing shopping and dining -- there is something for everyone here. This is my personal favorite. I love starting from scratch and creating the best itinerary so that you can get a feel for the real London
  • Paris, France - From the most recognized monument in the world (the Eiffel Tower) to Disneyland Paris - this is a bucket list location for many! I travel here frequently and can help give you the ins and out of the city. 

I believe that I am a valuable resource to my clients because not only am I trained as a professional travel agent, but I also am an experienced traveler. I have traveled independently on my own, I have booked trips and brought my own young son with me, and I have participated in organized group trips. These personal experiences allow me to be a knowledgeable guide for any type of traveler.

Take advantage of this moment, and book your next vacation with me. You won't regret investing in quality time with the people you love the most.

Expanding My Horizons

Where I am most comfortable at
Where I am most comfortable at

Before becoming an agent I preferred major cities, but now I have become certified in multiple All-Inclusive brands and locations and around half of my bookings come from All-Inclusive vacations in the Caribbean and Mexico.

Along with becoming certified, I have also traveled to a variety of new locations to experience what different countries and brands have to offer. While traveling to new places I mix it up and spend time at the properties and venturing out into the local towns/villages to connect with the culture.

I love that I have become a more rounded traveler and that I am able to help people realize that traveling can be done on any budget, regardless of where their heart is leading them.

Best experience you’ll ever have!

Reviewed By Andrea - Hampton, Ga | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
If your goal is to take a vacation based on your wants, needs, didn’t know you needs & more, Samantha is the TA for you! Between making everything age appropriate for our 3 year old, letting me change my mind a thousand times & making sure every detail is perfect she has made our vacations beyond enjoyable! I wish I could give her more stars, honestly! We have booked Jamaica, Disney, Vegas & Turks & Caicos with Sam, all very different yet she made them all perfect! Each time we have presented Samantha with our “must haves”, projected dates, price range & interests and she has found the best fit for our family. After booking she has been able to take us through every step of the planning process making sure every aspect is how we imagined. While traveling she monitors our flight, our testing, literally everything! Upon arrival she once again checks in on us, helps with reservations & excursions, communicates with the location as necessary. I seriously can not recommend her enough.

Magical Moments

Reviewed By Krysti - Delhi, LA | Traveled to Florida ~ USA
There are not enough words to express my gratitude for Samantha! She made our daughter's graduation trip a dream come true! Even while on a trip herself she woke up early to help make our day magical! As someone who overthinks and worries over everything, I 100% recommend her. The stress of traveling was lifted, and my family and I just let her do what she does best!

Samantha took such great care of us for our trip to Riviera Maya! She was in constant contact with us throughout the whole trip and I knew if we had any issues, she would take care of them.

The best trips of all my life!

Reviewed By Heather - Monticello, Arkansas | Traveled to New York ~ USA
First of all, Samantha is a saint. We are a family of 6 ages 2-35. I like to believe we are a “traveling family” but realistically we go about 2-4 times a year somewhere besides ball tournaments and dance competitions. Let me just say, Samantha is a rockstar at just taking my 1000 questions and turning our trips into truly enjoyable experiences without the stress of planning and even worrying what we are going to eat. The last two years having her available with all her knowledge and travel experience, it’s been the best 2 years of travel for us. From Disney, New York, St. Louis, Kansas City, Branson, etc. There is honestly not another way to travel than to do it with Sam.

Best week ever!

Reviewed By Kelly - Castroville, Texas | Traveled to Florida ~ USA
Sam was / is amazing! She made our trip to Disney amazing! We were very nervous traveling with our daughter who was under 5! And we probably had a million questions when we were actually at the park! And she was always so fast in response ! She even made us same day reservations for restaurants and rides! Even prior to us leaving she was on top of always checking to make sure we got the lowest prices on everything and this was during covid so she was always aware of what was happening and changing! She is literally my go to for EVERY vacation we go on!

Best Travel Agent There Is

Reviewed By The Cabrera Crew - Bastrop, LA | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Samantha went out of her way planning my family’s first Disney trip. Not only did she answer every phone call with what I look at now as pointless questions, she helped plan all of our restaurant reservations and booked our rides so we could sleep in. We will forever book our vacays with Samantha! Currently booking our second with her and can’t wait for November!

The BEST, most relaxing Disney vacation EVER!

Reviewed By Nat - Omaha NE | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Samantha made our vacation magical. Stress free for us so we could enjoy all the moments. She not only reserved many dining options every day, helped with DAS and online queues, she was already of getting “in line via app” when my phone wouldn’t work (walked into a giant rock mountain) I text her and she “was on it!” That’s service you can’t teach! I have sent several friends to Samantha too all of us have had wonderful experiences!!! We’re going on another vacation, and we are using Samantha, now until forever!

Great tropical vacation!

Reviewed By Natalie K - Chesapeake, VA | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Samanta was the best from start to finish! She does a great job giving you options based on what you want and your budget, but also great at making changes if needed! She makes sure everything is ready to go leading up to the trip, but is also super helpful during the trip! We had a blast on our vacation to the Dominican Republic and couldn’t have done it without her!

Memories to cherish forever

Reviewed By Stephanie and Wyatt - Scribner, Nebraska | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
She made my dream come true!
I am a single mother of 1 child. I had wanted to take my son to Disney for a few years. I was referred to Samantha through my business, and I am ever so grateful. To say that she is the BEST agent is an understatement. Not only do I consider myself very "high maintenance and needy" but I also have major anxiety issues. I planned 3 months in advance so I could budget and she kept in touch with me the entire time. As someone who does not have the opportunity to travel often, it was important to me to have every detail PERFECT, and Samantha did just that! We had 5 days and 4 nights on Disney property (something that I thought was completely unobtainable due to budget) and I knew exactly what to expect. I will never travel again without talking to Samantha first. The words "THANK YOU" just aren't enough.

We Love Samantha!

Reviewed By Cox Clan - Monticello, Arkansas | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Samantha is one of a kind. We had been to Disney twice before Samantha started planning for us. We have been on three since with her expertise and planning. This past week was one for the books. It was probably the easiest yet. There is a world of difference in not having Sam and we wouldn’t be able to do it without her. She has changed vacations for us to stress free family experiences. We can now be more present and intentional with our kids not worrying about the next move and enjoy the present moment. From the fine details to the last minute needs/wants. She goes above and beyond to ensure everything is done to the best possible. We are a large family with many requests and she has yet to not be able to meet every expectation. We have been at much more ease on our vacations all due to her personal touch and help. We won’t travel without her no matter where we are going. This trip specifically was one of our favorite adventures and that is all due to Samantha’s unmatched expertise.

Working with Samantha was and has been such a great delight. She is incredibly detail oriented and from the get-go always had lots of options for me, along side the options I thought I wanted. Once my vacation started she went out of her way to check in and make sure everything was as going well and even did some planning mid vacation. She’s a true gem and I can’t wait to work with her again. I never thought I need a travel agent until I worked with her.

Samantha made everything so easy for me and my trip to Hawaii! I was given options and all I had to do was choose. That’s it! Everything from there was taken over by her. All I had to do furthermore was give her the OK to draft my next payment out of my account. I did it manually have to do that myself and stress myself out about the payments. She did a phenomenal job and I will definitely be booking my next trip with her as well!
