About Me

The AmaMagna sailing on the Danube
The AmaMagna sailing on the Danube

River cruises are one of my favorite ways to see the world at a slower, more comfortable pace, without giving up great food, culture, and scenery. I help travelers who are curious about river cruising but unsure where to start figure out which rivers, routes, and cruise lines actually fit how they like to travel.

I design river cruise trips along major waterways in Europe and Asia, including classics like the Danube, Rhine, Seine, and Douro, as well as options on the Mekong and other itineraries. Because ships are smaller and dock right in or near town centers, you can step off into historic streets, markets, and vineyards instead of dealing with long transfers from big ports.

For each traveler, I help match them with the right ship, cabin type, and itinerary length, and I explain what is and isn’t typically included—things like shore excursions, drinks, Wi-Fi, and gratuities. I also help plan pre- and post-cruise stays, flights, and transfers, and suggest excursions that suit different interests, whether that’s wine and food, history and architecture, or more active touring, such as walking and biking.

My goal is to make river cruising feel approachable, not intimidating, and to build trips that feel immersive without being exhausting. When you’re ready to explore the world by river, I’ll handle the details so you can travel more, worry less, and enjoy the journey.
