Luxury Cruise, River Cruise & Europe Specialist

I'm Denise Del Vescovo, owner of a Dream Vacations franchise based in Flanders, New Jersey. As an award-winning, full-time travel advisor with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in luxury ocean cruises, European river cruises, small-ship voyages, and customized European vacations.

I love working with couples, families, and groups who want more than a typical vacation. Whether you're celebrating a milestone anniversary, planning your first river cruise, or looking for a more intimate luxury cruise experience, I help you find the right ship, itinerary, and travel experience for your interests and budget.

Luxury Ocean & Small-Ship Cruising

I work with leading luxury cruise lines, including Silversea, Crystal, Windstar, and Viking. Each offers a different experience, from intimate yacht-style cruising and exceptional dining to destination-focused voyages and personalized service. I help clients understand these differences so they can choose the cruise that truly fits their travel style.

European River Cruising

River cruising is one of my favorite ways to explore Europe. I work with AmaWaterways, Viking, Uniworld, and Avalon Waterways, helping clients experience the Danube, Rhine, Rhône, and Douro rivers. My firsthand river cruise experience allows me to share practical insights about ships, itineraries, and destinations.

Custom Italy & European Travel

Italy is especially close to my heart. My husband is from Italy, and I've traveled extensively throughout the country. I love introducing clients to authentic Italian culture, beautiful destinations, and experiences beyond the typical tourist itinerary.

I also host escorted European group vacations every year, bringing travelers together to explore incredible destinations while enjoying the benefits of professional planning and personalized attention.Beyond cruising, I arrange boutique hotels, private tours, transfers, and customized pre- and post-cruise stays, allowing clients to experience more of their destinations.

Why Work With Me?

I'm a member of ASTA and CLIA and continually invest in professional training and firsthand travel experiences. As a full-time advisor, I work closely with my clients from our first conversation through their return home.

I believe the best vacations are thoughtfully planned around the people taking them. My goal is to make the planning process easier, provide knowledgeable recommendations, and create experiences you'll remember for years to come.I'd love to help you plan your next Dream Vacation!
