A Wealth of Experience

I’ve been working within the travel industry for nearly four decades from front line agent, to managing —but I fell in love with travel long before I “turned pro”!

I’ve seen first-hand how the world of travel has changed over the decades. These days, there are so many tools and resources out there for travelers … that it feels like an impossible task to know what information to trust.

That’s why I act as your advisor and advocate throughout the entire planning process. I make sure you trust your precious vacation to travel companies and outfitters who will treat your trip with care—and I ensure we ask the right questions all along the way. Don’t just escape—explore with confidence.

The Best Anniversary Destination!
Reviewed By Rebekah - Blacksburg, VA | Traveled to Great Exuma ~ Bahamas ~ Caribbean
Lucy has been my travel agent for more than 30 years. Her guidance has been exemplary! In 2018 we wanted a fabulous and romantic vacation to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Lucy suggested several locations based on our criteria. We chose Sandals Emerald Bay Resort in The Bahamas. It is a wonderful all inclusive resort in a pristine and beautiful location. We enjoyed every minute of our visit and we hope to return again one day. Thank you Lucy!

Client Testimonials

Fabulous Guided tour of Italy
It was indeed our first tour anywhere, and everything exceeded expectations. The hotels, excursions, local guides, and meals were all first-class. Not to mention the espresso, the breathtaking scenery, the wonderful weather, and the Italians! Even the bus was comfortable, and on the longer rides, we appreciated having a rest stop. Traveling with our neighbors & friends added meaning to the trip. You did a great job organizing and your efforts at keeping us well-informed throughout the year leading up to our departure were commendable. We genuinely appreciate the dedication you put into ensuring our tour was unforgettable.

Life-Changing Trip to the Galapagos
Every aspect of the trip was pure perfection. The nature exceeded even our very high expectations... and the service was absolutely perfect. Lastly, the social aspect was unexpected with all of us making some lifelong friends. This was perhaps the only vacation I've been on where I genuinely had zero desire to come home (minus missing my family, ). Lucy was an incredible support throughout the entire experience. Excellent communicator who clearly offered all options. Was a savior when a few last minute flight changes were needed (outside her control). Made the entire experience a breeze.

Amazing River Cruise on the Danube
Working with Lucy has been a fantastic experience! She provided valuable insights on river cruising and the various cruise lines, ultimately finding us an excellent deal with Uniworld that we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. I especially appreciated the three hotel choices she offered in each city for our pre and post-cruise stays. Lucy was incredibly responsive to our numerous questions and requests, making the entire process stress-free. Her service was top-notch!
