Certified Leisure Travel Specialist

Anyone can book travel; yet, I enhance your vacation by listening to how you envision your journey from a one dimensional trip to a multi faceted experience. I continue to educate myself in this ever changing industry and offer my clients over 40 years of experience. I capture the best value for their desired destination by staying current with product knowledge of the many vendors with which Travel Leaders has an association, especially in the luxury market. I want your travel investment to be managed well, from the dream to the reality and rarely, post departure, if there are service issues. I look forward to your contacting me.

Canyonlands Tauck Tour

In May of 2022, I escorted a small group on Tauck tour's Canyonlands. It was my first visit to the Grand Canyon as well as Bryce, Zion and Sedona. We covered so much in the 8 days of travel and enjoyed great meals, entertainment, floats down the Colorado River and a flight ... Read more from my Canyonlands Tauck Tour story.

The Rhine river with Tauck

Just returned from Tauck Academy on the Rhine where I was treated like a Tauck customer with superior service and "Sparkling events" which sets this supplier apart. We dined at a castle, were entertained with a private concerto, toured in small groups with local guides as well as biked along the Rhine. Our ... Read more from my The Rhine river with Tauck story.

Vail: Like Nothing on Earth

I may be biased as I have a son who lives in Vail, but I cannot imagine a better place to take your family to enjoy winter sports or SUMMER activities. I've skied Vail since 2010 and discover something new on the mountain every year. My son can attest to over ... Read more from my Vail: Like Nothing on Earth story.

Best Travel Agent

Reviewed By Mimi - Wilmington, NC | Traveled to Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Nancy Cowan has planned many trips on my behalf and, without exception, they have been top notch. She makes a point of understanding my preferences and needs, and makes sure she accommodates them, even if it is above and beyond the actual organized vacation tour. When things go awry regarding airline or other unforeseen glitches, she always responds by intervening on my behalf. Having someone with so much travel industry experience pays off when a need arises somewhere, anywhere, along the travel journey. My very best vacations have been planned by Nancy.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends
Nancy Cowen responded:

Latest and Best Cruise

Reviewed By Martha - Naples, Florida | Traveled to Rhine Valley ~ Germany ~ Europe
My husband and I have booked many trips, primarily cruises, through Nancy. Recently she handled a wonderful Viking cruise for us and five other couples. Superb work. Working with Nancy has been a delight over the years. She exhibits a very rare quality in the service business-she truly puts the customer FIRST. In all regards. We find her to be extremely knowledgeable of destinations, cruise lines, etc., and very much appreciate her insights, thoughts. She is very detail oriented, leaving nothing to chance. She always seems to find the best available rooms, at the best price, always aware of and taking advantage of any and all promotions available. Nancy is very timely following up on questions we may have, very thorough in her responses.

Finally, it is worth noting that we used to book our own trips, and felt we were pretty thorough. Then we enlisted Nancy to handle all of our travel needs. What an upgrade!!! She is a real asset to Travel Leaders. An indispensable asset to us.

Nancy thought of every detail

Reviewed By Karen E - Wilmington, NC | Traveled to Rhine Valley ~ Germany ~ Europe
We were so pleased to work with Nancy Cowen! From recommending an itinerary to explaining what to expect at every stage, Nancy covered it all. She asked us for decisions on details we would never even have thought of. When it came time to leave for our trip, we put ourselves in the capable hands of Nancy and Viking, knowing that everything would be taken care of. Our trip insurance (recommended by Nancy) made the whole thing truly care-free. We would book with Nancy again in a heartbeat!

Can't wait to plan our next adventure with Nancy!

Reviewed By Courtney - Wilmington | Traveled to St. Lucia ~ Caribbean
Nancy is fabulous! She helped us book the most spectacular vacation to the Sandals Halcyon in St Lucia. Nancy always responded promptly if we had any questions and even met us in person to give us information packets that detailed our options during our stay in paradise. Then Nancy eloquently dealt with an airline issue on our behalf and scored us travel vouchers for our next trip. We will absolutely book with Nancy Cowen for our future dreamy vacations!!

10 years of great service!

Reviewed By Linda - Ipswich, MA | Traveled to Europe, Mexico, Taiwan
I do not hesitate to (and in fact, frequently do) recommend Nancy Cowen to anyone needing top notch travel assistance and support! By far, Nancy is the best I have ever worked with! She and I have worked together for nearly ten years sending student & teacher groups to countries around the world and she has never let me down. Nancy is promptly responsive to our needs or questions and manages to obtain affordable flights, train tickets and hotels. She is a 100% reliable professional and is well informed about all aspects of travel.

Caribbean Vacations

Reviewed By Will - High Point, NC | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands ~ Caribbean
Nancy has booked two Caribbean vacations for my wife and I, including one that was our honeymoon. Both times she listened to what we wanted to experience on the different trips, and recommended places that exceeded all of our expectations. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to book a total package vacation, especially one to the Caribbean.
