Custom Travel Specialist
If there is such a thing as a Travel Bug, I was born with it! Having traveled since I was a baby, I have always craved seeing new destinations and to further delve into old ones. That craving has only increased as I get older and I find myself always having a trip planned, or at least in the midst of planning one. I absolutely love the entire journey of travel. From researching, to booking, packing my bags (well maybe not that part, LOL) to enjoying the view from the window. The excitement of disembarking the airplane, ship or train in a new destination just waiting to be explored and experienced has never waned.
I have spent the last 25 years in the travel industry and decided to use my expertise in planning travel to help others experience an amazing trip. Whether you are looking to go out of the country for the first time or back to Europe for the 10th time, I'm here to accommodate your requests. Looking to check out the Northern Lights but don't know where to go, or you're wanting to set foot on the 7th Continent, Antarctica, I can get you there!
Not everyone enjoys, or has the time it takes to research and plan a once-in-a-lifetime experience, that's where I come in! I'm here to help you plan your trip, from the initial planning stage until your return home. Whatever the reason you’re traveling, I've got you covered.

The Best 3 Weeks in Australia!
The Planning: Enter Virginia Cordes with Savvy Bird Travel. We met with Virginia who was recommended to us by friends. She discussed with us our expectations for this three week trip. Letting her know where, what and when, plus her input was all it took to have an incredible three week in the land Down Under. Her knowledge of and access to the information of hotels, condos, transportation and tours in each city we spent time in Australia made this trip the best. Virginia stayed in contact with us throughout the trip to make sure all was going well or if we needed anything. I highly recommend Virginia if you are planning a trip anywhere!
Debra, it was such a pleasure helping you plan a fabulous itinerary! I am extremely happy you all enjoyed the amazing trip to Australia. I look forward to working with you again!
Terrific and Outstanding Trip
Thank you very much, Maria. It was a pleasure!
The perfect trip
Virginia helped me in every aspect of our journey. She was readily available if I had an idea or needed a booking.
Virginia asked us questions which helped when making decisions before the trip. She booked accommodations for us after considering our budget and the property's location to planned excursions. She booked adventures and made suggestions for things to do in the areas we were visiting. When it came to transportation she not only booked our trains but found the departure platforms and booked rides to airports directly from our hotel.
Once our vacation started we used her itinerary, notes and messages daily. She had it all organized with tickets and reservations at our fingertips.
I am looking forward to needing her services again soon!
I'm so grateful you found me to help you with your trip to Europe! I strive to make travel as easy as possible for my travelers and I'm so happy that you were able to enjoy the entire journey. I look forward to helping you plan another amazing trip!
