Fully Customized Independent Travel Expert

Traveling independently is something that many of us strive to do. There is more flexibility in what you want to see, and when you want to see it. 

But with flexibility also comes complexity. With an escorted tour or cruise, your accommodations, guides and much of your transportation is already arranged. With independent travel, all of this has to be curated. The process takes time, and you may not know anything about any of the options available. 

That is where I come in. Instead of you taking your time time to research all of the different options available, I do that for you. And my resources will extend beyond what you can find on your own on the Internet. 

Here are some examples of what I have arranged for myself and for my clients:

  • A 10-day trip to Scotland including tours of the Highlands, Loch Ness, Stirling Castle, the Borders Region, and a guided fly fishing trip on the River Tweed.
  • A 9-day trip to England including tours of Stonehenge, Oxford, Highclere Castle, the sights of London, and tickets and transportation to the British Grand Prix Formula 1 Race at Silverstone.
  • An 8-week trip to Munich, Germany and Switzerland including tours of Neuschwanstein, Dachau Concentration Camp, and passage on two of the panoramic trains in Switzerland.
  • A one-week trip to France and Spain, including private tours in Paris, dinner on the Eiffel Tower, a Seine River Dinner Cruise and a night in a hotel in the vineyards of St. Émilion near Bordeaux. 
  • A 10-day trip to Barcelona including a cooking class, a guided tour of the Sagrada Familia and Montserrat Abbey, and lunch in a Spanish Winery.
  • A 10-day trip to Florence and Rome Italy, including trips to Siena, Assisi, Pisa and San Gimignano. This included guided tours of the Accademia and Uffizi in Florence, and the Vatican, the Roman Ruins and the Borghese Gallery in Rome.

And while you are traveling, I am there for you. 

Do you have a dream vacation? I would love to review it with you.

Our Italian Adventure

One thing you can say for Italy is that you will develop a great appreciation for Art, Religion, History and Architecture. They are with you everywhere you go. 

We started our adventure by landing in Rome. As is usually the case, we were arrived there early in the morning. Even though it ... Read more from my Our Italian Adventure story.

First Time Cruisers

Informed, helpful, available. Patrick worked with the cruiseline to get us a reasonably-priced package for a very nice trip. He consistently checked on us and on our travel plans. When we had questions, we had no trouble reaching him. Patrick is easy to work with, and takes time to understand our needs and wishes. We look forward to travel planning with him again.

40th Anniversary Dream Trip - Spain and Morocco

Reviewed By M.D. - Grove City, Ohio | Traveled to Spain ~ Europe
Patrick put an itinerary together after listening carefully to our needs, wishes, and budget. He was thorough and flexible as we tweaked a few things, making excellent recommendations we had not considered.
While overseas we ran into weather problems that interfered with a scheduled ferry. Pat was available right away to adjust the time of the ferry so we would not miss a travel day.
Super nice and attentive guy!
