About Me

At the Mendenhall Glacier
At the Mendenhall Glacier

Alaska is one of the most unforgettable destinations in the world and it’s truly one of my favorite places to help clients experience in a meaningful, well-planned way.

I specialize in Alaska cruise and cruise-tour vacations, especially for travelers who want more than just a standard itinerary. From towering glaciers and wildlife-filled fjords to Denali’s breathtaking landscapes, Alaska is the kind of bucket-list trip that deserves expert planning and thoughtful details.

Many of my clients choose Alaska because they want to see it all and that often means combining the best of both worlds: a scenic cruise along Alaska’s coastline paired with a customized land journey inland. I love designing seamless cruise + Denali extensions, including rail travel, wilderness lodges, guided touring, and the little logistical pieces that make a big difference in a destination as vast as Alaska.

Whether you’re dreaming of:

  • Watching glaciers from your balcony
  • Spotting whales, bears, and bald eagles in the wild
  • Exploring charming ports like Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan
  • Experiencing Denali National Park and Alaska’s interior
  • Enjoying a more elevated cruise experience with premium or luxury service

...I help you choose the right itinerary, cruise line, and travel style for the experience you want.

Alaska travel has unique moving parts...from choosing the best time of year to deciding between one-way cruise routes, land add-ons, and excursion options...and that’s where having a knowledgeable travel advisor makes all the difference. My goal is to make your trip feel effortless, well-supported, and truly worth it, with every detail handled from start to finish.

If Alaska is on your bucket list, I would love to help you plan a journey that feels personalized, seamless, and unforgettable.

The perfect anniversary trip!
Reviewed By Melissa B - Danville, Ky | Traveled to Punta Cana | Dominican Republic | Caribbean
Meredith took away all the stress of researching and planning our anniversary trip and made the process simple and seamless. She helped us figure out what we wanted for this vacation, providing options based on our feedback, and we landed on the perfect resort. She took care of all of the logistics for us, including booking our flights, out transportation to the resort, our room at the resort, and our excursion. She sent us timely reminders and a beautifully detailed itinerary with all of the important information and tips we would need. When I had trouble filling out a form from my phone while on the trip, Meredith quickly did it for me and we were ready to go! We highly recommend Meredith for stress-free and simplified vacation planning!

A Once in a Lifetime Trip to the Amalfi Coast/Pompeii & Tuscany Regions of Italy
Reviewed By TomLin - Ooltewah, TN | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Meredith's company was recommended to my wife and me by church friends who had used her for one of their trips. From our first conversations with Meredith and her husband DeWayne, we knew that working with her would be a great experience. In our planning, she was very thorough and detailed. She listened to all we had to say and then planned for that using her knowledge of travel and touring options which best fit what we had told her. The booklet provided to us which included travel itinenary, travel tickets and tips for which taxis to use, how much to tip, where to dine at different locations and best sites to see was invaluable.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

My Travel Stories

My First Alaskan Cruise Was a Show-Stopper

When I started Simple Traveler Vacations, I knew I wanted to host group trips—but where to start? I decided my first hosted group adventure should be to a place I had never been. The destination needed to be breathtaking, unique, and truly bucket-list worthy. Alaska was the obvious choice. In the summer of 2023, I set sail with my first g...
