About Me

Travel crafted especially for you

Hello! I'm Sue Painter, your trusted guide in the vast world of travel. With footprints on all seven continents and over 80 countries, I bring to the table an unparalleled first-hand experience and comprehensive understanding of global destinations.

My wanderlust started in high school when I was an exchange student in Colombia. The vibrant cultures, distinct customs, and the taste of exotic foods ignited a passion in me to explore every corner of the world. I've been a travel advisor since 2016 for many globetrotters like you. My experience covers the full spectrum of travelers: solo adventurers, romantic couples, close-knit families, groups of friends, and larger groups.

I build private custom land tours that reveal the hidden gems of your destination, arrange yacht trips that let you sail in style, and book small to mid-size cruise ship sailings for that perfect balance between the intimate and the grand. I listen closely and recommend brands that are a good match for you, brands I know and trust.

My specialties are Europe, the United Kingdom, South America, Antarctica, Africa, and the picturesque South Pacific. I believe that every journey we undertake changes us in some ways. Travel is not just about visiting new places; it's about the experiences that broaden our horizons, shift our perspectives, and foster a deeper understanding of the world and each other.

As your travel agent, my goal is to create unforgettable travel experiences that match your personal interests and desires. Together, we'll craft itineraries that thrill, excite, and educate, giving you a vacation that is a window to the world. Are you ready for your next adventure? Let me take care of the details while you pack your bags and look forward to your next journey. I look forward to hearing from you.

Travel you'll talk about for years to come

Sue helped make Cabo a seamless and relaxing trip
Reviewed By Doug - Firestone, CO | Traveled to Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Sue is awesome. This was my first time using her although she booked a trip through my dad last year for a European cruise. This time around, I wanted to take my family to Cabo. Everything was done right and Sue was a stickler for details. Upon finding a discrepancy from our shuttle return in Mexico, I notified Sue who contacted them for me and corrected the pick up time. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.
