I grew up in Philadelphia and continue to live here today, and I fondly remember visiting my extended family in Hartford, CT, over the years. They all have Scottish ancestry, and I love connecting with our shared heritage through their stories and experiences.
I became very interested in my family’s history, and I began taking trips to Scotland, Ireland, and throughout the United Kingdom as often as possible. One time, my husband and I were walking through Kilbirnie on our final day in Scotland when we ran into some of my relatives downtown. We spent the entire day together, and I was able to get a picture of the house my grandmother grew up in which was simply amazing.
After years of booking my own trips, I decided to become a travel agent and help everyone explore the world. Today, I specialize in genealogical, cultural, and experiential travel to Scotland, Ireland, England, and beyond. I’m certified as a SCOTSagent, BRITagent, and Ireland Specialist which gives me the tools to help you dive into the local culture and get the most out of your experience. Whether you have a family history you want to reconnect with or are simply interested in these cultures, I’ll personalize your itinerary so you can have an informative and highly enjoyable vacation anywhere you go.
If you have ancestry abroad, I’ll help you retrace your family’s history so you can visit everything from their original hometowns and houses to significant places where weddings or other events took place. I want you to feel a strong connection to your destination, and I’ll do everything to make your trip unique along the way.
I recently booked for clients with Irish lineage, and I helped them visit many of the towns their ancestors were from. I then booked a ferry to Scotland that recreated the experience of how their family would have traveled many generations ago. Along with this, I found local restaurants that served traditional cuisine along with local fairs that provided a firsthand experience of the culture.
While I specialize in genealogical vacations, I’m also happy to book general getaways and cultural excursions as well. As your travel agent, I will:
- Simplify the booking process
- Make traveling easier than ever
- Customize your itinerary
- Provide 24/7 support and assistance
- Provide unique recommendations based on your interests
- And more!
Whether you wish to retrace your family’s history or simply want to enjoy a beautiful European vacation, I’m excited to book for you today!

We got to see the beautiful landmarks in London, the scenic highlands in Scotland, and the beauties of Ireland in just 2 short weeks without feeling like we had to miss out on anything we wanted to see.
Lynn went above and beyond every step of the way. She was always available for any questions or minor issues, both before, during & after our travels. Her support and expertise truly made this trip unforgettable, and we felt so well taken care of the entire time. We couldn’t recommend Lynn enough—she’s absolutely the best!
