About Me

Agent specializing in Europe & river cruising

There is a unique enchantment to a river cruise. The real magic lies in the experience. River cruises dock right in the heart of historic cities and charming towns, placing you just steps away from local life, stunning architecture, and cultural treasures. The pace is relaxed, the service is personal, and the ever-changing landscape outside your window is a constant source of wonder. I understand the charm of this journey on a personal level. I've had the pleasure of experiencing a river cruise firsthand, and I've also had the joy of leading a group on one of these very special trips. My personal experience allows me to help you choose the perfect itinerary and find a cruise line that perfectly matches your travel style. If you prefer to spend more time in one location, in Europe, I'll help you navigate the local culture, get around with confidence, and discover the authentic charm of your chosen destination.

Trip of a Lifetime
Reviewed By Lexie - Saint Louis | Traveled to Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
When planning my dream vacation, I knew I needed to get everything right, down to the last detail. I had extremely high expectations, and Karla made sure my ultimate vacation was perfect! Planning a Disney Cruise is as overwhelming as it is exciting, but Karla took care to do all the research to make sure I got the best possible rate on my top itinerary. She planned my entire trip from start to finish, including finding the most convenient airfare with use of my airline miles, pre-embarkation activities, and the best excursions for each port of call. Additionally, Karla provided tons of resources and links for months leading up to my trip so that I could know the Disney cruise ship from head to toe, and get excited about everything in store! Karla added to the Disney "magic" of my trip, I was confident in her planning and never felt stressed or uncertain during or leading up to my cruise. I can't wait to have her book my next dream vacation!

Ireland & UK
Reviewed By Dave and Stacy's European Vacation - St. Charles. Mo | Traveled to Ireland ~ Europe
Karla was fantastic! She brought a lot of good ideas to the table and demonstrated an extensive knowledge of the travel business. She was very flexible and we worked well as a team to plan a very long and complex trip. Most importantly, she checked on the status of our holiday multiple times and I felt she had our backs so that we did not feel alone thousands of miles from home.
Karla Boyer responded
"It was a pleasure working with you and helping your travel dreams become a reality!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Pure Enchantment!
Reviewed By thegreentraveler - St. Louis, MO | Traveled to Rhine River | On the River | At Sea
Our Rhine River Cruise was a traveler's dream come true! Karla provided exceptional, personalized service for our group. Her attention to detail was stunning! From our affordable, yet luxurious, transportation to and from airport/hotel; authentic cuisine dining experiences; assistance in booking our exciting and adventurous excursions; and serving as liaison between our group and the Riverside cruise staff, it was evident that Karla's first priority is the satisfaction of her travel guests. Throughout our trip, Karla maintained a warm, friendly, and calm leadership presence which gave everyone peace of mind and the satisfaction of thoroughly relaxing and enjoying each experience along the way. I most confidently and highly recommend Karla Boyer for all your travel needs/dreams!

Hiking Skellig Michael Ireland

Visiting this remote island off the coast of southwest Ireland was a bucket list experience!  After reaching out to many of the local guides many months in advance, as this is a very hard tour to secure, I was finally able to book this excursion for my family.  The local boats allowed to offer the landing tour is limited, and even after securing...

Client Testimonials

Special Time at Disney World
I just returned home from my bonding trip with my granddaughter, Nicole. We had a special time at Disney World - thank you for helping me sort through all the choices. We were upgraded to a suite and I suspect you had something to do with that perk. I really appreciated it! It was great to have a suite with two bathrooms and two TV's! There were a few mornings when I ordered breakfast to go and was able to offer Nicole breakfast in bed while she watched her favorite shows. How sweet! I will not hesitate to refer you to others if I get a chance.
