About Me

Stonehenge, a bucket list Europe destination
Stonehenge, a bucket list Europe destination

Europe continues to be one of the most popular destinations for American tourists.  With 565 UNESCO world heritage sites there is no shortage of attractions to visit on this small continent.  

Its cities are filled with modern and historical architecture and landmarks.  And each country has its own charm, feel and language.  There is so much to see, do and learn when traveling to Europe, it can be overwhelming.  

I have personal first-hand experience traveling in Europe from the big cities of Rome, London and Amsterdam to the small towns of Ronda, Spain and Alesund, Norway.  Each requires a different way to get around, knowledge of the customs and currency.

I am here to help put all of this knowledge and information together to provide the best travel experience for you.  That could be a river cruise down the Danube, a road trip through Ireland or a rail trip through Switzerland.  Or it could be a plane hopper trip from London to Paris to Rome.  

The best option for you might be different than your neighbor.  Let's chat about what trip I can help to customize for you!

Lost without Justin!
Reviewed By Wymericans - Florence, Rome, Sorrento | Traveled to Italy | Europe
We were looking to take our family abroad for the first time and had no idea where to start and not enough time to figure everything out. We thought using a travel agent would be the way to go. After a few failed attempts with agents that weren’t really providing what we needed, we found Justin through a recommendation from a friend. We are so grateful to have found him! After learning what our family was looking for in a hour long meeting, he was able to narrow down locations and recommended two potential vacation itineraries. We were blown away by how thoughtful and personalized they were. We picked Italy and didn’t have to change one thing from his initial recommendation. He covered travel, lodging, and activities to Florence, Rome, and Sorrento. He helped us book things and sent us lots of helpful information. For two busy working parents, this was greatly appreciated. We had the vacation of a lifetime. The kids loved everything and the selections Justin made were excellent. We w
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

A fantastic Adriatic cruise for our anniversary!
Reviewed By Matt and Lori Jo Bergan - Forest Lake, MN | Traveled to Adriatic Sea | At Sea | At Sea
Justin helped set us up for an absolutely amazing cruise to Greece, Croatia and Italy for our 35th anniversary. Justin was a key resource through the entire process - from planning the trip, choosing great excursions, and helping us extend our stay on both ends with great recommendations for Athens and Venice. Most importantly, Justin was always uber-responsive to our many questions along the way, and was even proactive by offering tips and helpful advice for each port. In summary, Justin's efforts were highly beneficial and greatly enhanced our vacation experience. We would not hesitate to work with Justin in planning our future vacations! Highly recommended.

Forget the rest, Justin is simply the best!!!
Reviewed By Jack Benitez - Andover, MN | Traveled to Niagara Falls ~ New York ~ USA
My wife's birthday was coming up and I had no idea what to do. I spoke with Justin about booking a trip to Niagara Falls for her birthday. Justin took the time and asked the right questions to plan a trip out for us with activities he knew we would enjoy. My wife was thoroughly impressed and I was extremely grateful for the wonderful job Justin did for us. I must mention, my wife and I came upon some unexpected financial emergencies and were unable to follow through with the trip Justin put together for us. Justin was very understanding and didn't turn his back on us upon learning of our situation in that moment. We will be utilizing Justin's services for all future travel and will confidently trust him with travel plans for friends and family! Justin is second to none! Thank you for all your help Justin!!!

Norway Couples Trip
Justin was the perfect person to help with arrangements to a trip to Norway for 3 couples in May. We already had booked the 11 day Hurtigruten Cruise . We met with him in person and discussed what we wanted and he had several other great suggestions. He booked our air, Norway trains, some hotels, a 7 hour private Hardanger fjord tour and all were wonderful. The week before we left our boat tour was changed by one day and Justin took care of rebooking trains and hotels for us. He also sent information to all us regarding customs in Norway, food, tipping, phone use and so much more which was very helpful. We all appreciated his expertise. We would definitely use Justin for our future travel needs.
