About Me

Windsor Castle
Windsor Castle

I have been in the travel industry for over 35 years and have extensive knowledge in planning incredible and memorable vacations. I will help you plan your dream vacation that may include air, hotel/resorts, cruise, tours, transfers, car rental and cruise excursions in your vacation package.

I have traveled extensively throughout the world to various destinations such as the United Kingdom, the Caribbean, Mexico, Canada, the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the USA. In addition, I have completed certification programs with the major cruise lines (Royal Caribbean, Disney, Carnival, Norwegian, and Celebrity, Princess), Disney (College of Knowledge), and the Hawaiian Tourism Authority. I also explore many other destinations virtually through my various suppliers. My specialities include Cruises, Honeymoons, Destination Weddings, Family Vacations, Disney, Universal, National Parks, Transatlantic Travel (independent or guided) and All Inclusive Vacation Packages.

I enjoy getting to know my client's travel desires, exploring their various options, and providing personalized service that delivers dream vacations. I will work hard to get you the best value for your dollar by researching extensively to find exclusive deals. I love to travel and I will treat every vacation like it were my own. 

I look forward to helping you discover the world and make some memories!

Travel Europe Your Way!

I have worked with many of my clients to plan custom trips to Europe. I can put together air, hotels, car rentals, trains, sightseeing excursions, and/or cruises so that you can visit the places you want to see in Europe at your own pace and on your own time line. 

However, if you need a more structured vacation in Europe, I also work with various suppliers that offer guided tours.

Greece and Italy Trips - Our Way. Thanks, Joyce!!
Reviewed By cbhodgin - Winston-Salem, NC | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
We’ve worked with Joyce on several custom international adventures. Joyce helped us plan and book our trips the way we wanted. All accommodations and travel met or exceeded our expectations. At times we unexpectedly received five star service for three star costs. Joyce did her research and used her connections to find unique experiences for us. A pleasure to work with!
