I have been in the travel business for almost 30 years and thoroughly enjoy my job. In fact, it's hard to consider it a "job" to assist my clients in planning their dream vacation!
My love for the islands of Aloha (Hawaii) stems from my early travels there as a child. I visited the islands each year as I was growing up and have developed a love for the culture and experience that conveys the true meaning of Aloha. It is a unique destination like no other and you don't need a passport!
I am always looking for that next exciting destination to visit and to share with my clients. Africa is truly a favorite and I could go back every year. I traveled there to see the animals but fell in love with the people and culture along with the adventure of the animal safaris.
I have been booking and traveling on river cruises for over 25 years. River cruising is a unique way to see the intimate parts of a country while enjoying the sights as the river ship meanders along the river ways. Your hotel is virtually moving with you so there is no need to pack and unpack in order to see smaller towns and villages that you might not see on a regular tour or ocean cruise.

Best travel agent
Reviewed By Best agent - Southern California | Traveled to
We have used Rhonda's services for many trips. She is knowledgable about many countries, she is incredibly responsive to any special requests or problems. As an example she called us when we were graded to the airport to let is know our plane was delayed. If a problem comes up with a vendor, she immediately handles it. She is also just a nice person and a pleasure to do business with for travel.

She made my dreams come true without the "blarney,"
Reviewed By Sherrill E - Newman Lake, WA | Traveled to
This last year Rhonda Shumway put together a vacation of a lifetime for me. When I retired I wanted to surprise my mother and two sisters with a dream vacation to the Emerald Isle, home of our heritage . Rhonda made the trip to Ireland seamless and magical crossing every "t" and every " i." She worked with me as I asked multiple questions, changed my mind, needed more information and plotted and planned. The trip was magical as we stayed in castles, manor homes and saw everything Ireland has to offer . My mother and sisters wept as they stood on the ground where our great, great grandmother said good bye to her family at the tender age of 18 years ;off to America as an indentured servant. Our trip to Ireland was amazing , all because of Rhonda . I will never plan a trip without the helpful assistance and personal touch Rhonda Shumway offers. Off to Cancun this Fall celebrating at a 5 star resort. our 20th anniversary with Rhonda's guidance !!!

Top travel agent
Reviewed By Pam - Southern California | Traveled to
We have used Rhonda's services for our travel needs for several years now, including cruise and land tours. She is outstanding. Not only is she a pleasure to work with, she makes sure everything is taken care...down to the smallest detail. When we have had issues traveling, she is all over the problems getting them taken care of for us. I would not think of using anyone else for our travel needs, and have suggested her to several friends.
