About Me

Canal du Midi, Toulouse France
Canal du Midi, Toulouse France

My passion for international travel began in college, where I majored in French and Spanish. After my first transformative trip to France, where I literally wore through my leather-soled shoes exploring every corner, I knew I had found my calling as a professional travel advisor. For over 20 years, I've been helping travelers see the world through expertly curated travel experiences.

My extensive personal travel background includes: European travel throughout France, Greece, and beyond; luxury cruises to Alaska, Mexico, and the Caribbean; exotic destinations including Tahiti, Brazil, Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland China; European river cruises and cultural immersion experiences.

My Travel Planning Specialties: European River Cruises – As a certified river cruise specialist, I design romantic getaways and cultural journeys along Europe's most scenic waterways, perfect for couples and sophisticated travelers.

European Vacation Planning – With fluency in French and Spanish and decades of European travel experience, I create personalized European itineraries that go beyond typical tourist destinations.

Luxury Honeymoon & Romance Travel – From intimate European escapes to Caribbean all-inclusive resorts, I plan unforgettable honeymoons, vow-renewal trips, and couples' getaways.

Celebrity Cruises Worldwide – Expert planning for discerning travelers seeking premium cruise experiences to destinations including Alaska, the Caribbean, Europe, and beyond, perfect for couples celebrating anniversaries and special milestones.

Family Travel & Educational Vacations – Custom family travel planning including all-inclusive resorts, large cruise ships with family amenities, and small-group adventure trips that create lasting memories.

Why Clients Choose Me as Their Travel Agent: My clients describe me as friendly, hardworking, responsive, and intuitive, someone who truly "gets them." With my language skills, cultural expertise, and 20+ years as a professional travel consultant, I transform travel dreams into reality.

Amazing trip
Reviewed By Kevin - Yorba Linda | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
She’s amazing! She’s gone above and beyond several times, from helping us get an additional excursion on our cruise to quantifying how much we could recoup if we had to postpone it.

Total Relaxation
Reviewed By Dorie - Green Valley, Arizona | Traveled to Los Cabos ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Jerrie has gone above and beyond to accommodate us on our latest trip which involved 6 of us. Three of us came from Tucson and three came from Ohio so that was tricky to plan and get us to our resort within 30 minutes of each other arriving !!!!
Jerrie McLaughlin responded
"Thanks so much Dorie! It's such a pleasure working with you. I really appreciate your keeping me in the loop during your relaxing vacation in Los Cabos. Your whale pictures were exceptional!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

She pays close attention to our parameters
Reviewed By First Class - Colorado | Traveled to Paris ~ France ~ Europe
I have used Jerrie for all my travel experiences for more than a decade. She has always put together great experiences for my husband and I. In one case, I was told by another agent that "you can't get there on a train from here", but she found that it WAS possible! They loaded the train into a ferry. So cool!
Jerrie McLaughlin responded
"Thanks Sue, I appreciate the kind words and I'm always happy to work with you."
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
