European & Caribbean Travel Specialist
I am a Europe & Caribbean Travel Expert! I am passionate about my career because not only do I get to travel to incredible destinations around the world, but I absolutely love assisting families with planning their dream vacations. Although I do book the entire world, my favorite place to send people is ITALY! I specialize in setting up wine tours and wine tastings, and finding ways for my clients to experience the culture of Italy among the locals for an immersive experience. I love recommending staying in a rustic farmhouse and taking a hot air ballon ride over the Tuscan countryside. In addition to planning a wonderful vacation for my clients, I am always there for my clients before, during, and after their vacation to troubleshoot problems should they arise. I will make all the arrangements for you from flights, resorts, hotels, dining, tours, transfers, etc. so that all you have to do is pack your bags and enjoy your hassle free dream vacation!

What an unforgettable journey! We embarked on a dream honeymoon to Italy, and thanks to Karen McNeal, with M&B Travel, every moment was sheer perfection.
