Travel Agent for Europe, the Caribbean, & Cruises

I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, the Caribbean, and experienced several different cruise lines. I love taking the trains in Europe, but river cruises are a wonderful way to enjoy Europe as well. I have taken a river cruise on Crystal and I've booked many clients on Viking and Ama Waterways. I have also stayed at many beautiful resorts throughout the Caribbean and had the opportunity to sail on several different cruise line including Norwegian, Princes, Virgin, and Crystal. I have also booked many clients on Royal Caribbean and Celebrity. Having the opportunity to experience destination and cruises for myself is invaluable in helping me match my clients to the right destination, resort, or cruise line so I can create the perfect trip just for them.

We have several trips planned for this year and several that we have already experienced her ability at making your vacation the best ever. I also have recommended Alison to rave reviews, for example a friend was stuck in Chicago because of snow. Before the plane landed in Chicago, Alison had arranged a hotel for him to stay at before they sold out(Wow).

Mom's dream trip!

Reviewed By Cindy - Boyne City, MI | Traveled to Prince Edward Island ~ Canada
My 86 year old mother had always wanted to go visit the settting of her favorite childhood book, Anne of Green Gables on Prince Edward Island. When we decided to go, I immediately called Alison and she made EVERY SINGLE ARRANGEMENT for us; flights, hotels, theatre and car. She even wrote out a tentative daily schedule for us. This was incredibly helpful as my mom wanted to know what we were doing everyday. Even during the trip when we had a small issue, Alison was right on it and helped problem solve it for us. This trip was immensely low stress and one of the most memorable trips. My mom also commented on how much she trusted and appreciated the work Alison put into the planning. I would, and have, highly recommend Alison to any and all friends and family who have inquired about my travels. I plan to have Alison plan all of my future excursions!

Amazing European Vacation

Reviewed By Rhianna - Orlando, FL | Traveled to Europe
Alison has been an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish of planning our most recent Europe trip. She took the time to listen to our preferences and tweaked our itinerary until it was perfect for us. Leading up to leaving she provided tips and and useful information to set our travels up for success. During our trip (with a 6 hour time difference) she was responsive and efficient in assisting us with some things we needed help with while overseas. After our trip, she listened to the positives and worked with the appropriate parties for rectify a negative experience we had (which was no fault of hers or the agency). The App is amazing and I'm so glad this was a feature we could use to download our itinerary and communicate with Alison. We're already planning our next trip with her. THANK YOU for helping with what was the best vacation to date!!
