John Lane
European River and Luxury Cruise Specialist
With 35 years of experience in the travel industry so may changes have happened. When I started in this business there were a handful of cruise lines with just a handful of ships. Now with the cruise industry booming there are so many different lines and ships offering the latest and greatest amenities all vying for your attention. With my extensive knowledge of the cruise industry I will match you to the right cruise line, ship and itinerary. My personal touch and knowledge will help make a memorable cruise vacation for you.
I have personally cruised all over the world on the smallest ship to the largest ship. From an inside cabin to a suite on a deluxe ship. My latest love of cruising belongs on the river. River Cruises are so popular now with many lines to choose from. I have cruised on the Rhine, Danube and Rhone Rivers in Europe on four different river cruise lines. Cruising through Europe visiting the small towns and villages along these rivers is a completely different experience than what is offered on the large ocean cruises that cruise around the country instead of through it. Explore the hidden cities of Europe: Budapest, Nuremberg, Vienna, Bamberg, Cologne, Amsterdam, Prague, Bucharest and Melk just to name a few. These exciting cities await you with history galore and stories to be told. Let me help you determine which line and itinerary best suits you.
With years of satisfied clients, I pride myself in knowing the wants and needs of my clients and making sure that their current trip will be the best yet! I look forward to adding you to my long list of satisfied and loyal customers.

John is a valuable travel associate.
I have recommended John to DFW area potential travelers as an agent providing a valuable service at no cost to the traveler. Even though we moved to Tampa three years ago, we continue to use John as he is as close as our telephone and internet. We had used John for more than five years before we moved to Tampa.
I ask little of John in the planning of our trips. I research, myself, the cruise, cabin, air connection, and price for our trips. When I call John, I am ready to make an immediate booking. Where I find John valuable is in ancillary information as, hotel locations and bookings, day and extended tours at destinations, and general services. These are the valuable details that you, generally, don't get when booking direct with providers.
Thanks Art for the review! I appreciate your business and keeping in touch since moving to Florida! Thanks again! John
Our fabulous Galapagos Cruise
The most exotic cruise John helped us book was to the Galapagos Islands. What a fantastic and flawless experience! The ship he chose, the specific itinerary, the airfare, the hotel in Quito, and the paperwork was perfect. John always quickly called the cruise line to get any questions answered that he didn't know without making us wait. We really enjoy his vast cruise knowledge and helpfulness.
Thank you Shallen for the review! I have enjoyed planning your cruises and look forward to ones to come! John
