About Me

I'm fully immersed in the world of travel, and I love talking with people about their vacations and everything they want to explore. 

Having started in the travel industry back in 2005 as an Inbound Reservations Specialist at Walt Disney World, I’ve been booking exciting international vacations and cruises for nearly 20 years. My passion for adventure is still growing stronger each day! 

I specialize in booking customized itineraries around the world with a focus on: 

  • European River Cruises
  • Antarctica Trips
  • Small Ship Cruises
  • South American Tours
  • Central American Trips
  • Unique Cultural Tours
  • And More! 

I book for many types of travelers, from people traveling abroad for the first time to full-time adventurers and more. 

Some of my most common clients include:

  • Adventurers
  • Retired Couples
  • Active Adults
  • Small and Large Groups
  • Multi-Generational Families 

I’m an expert on European river cruises, active vacations, and trips to Antarctica, and I will help you personalize your itinerary so you can enjoy all the sights and activities you want at your own pace. I love helping people dive into the local culture, and I’ll work with you to find exciting opportunities that are otherwise easy to overlook. 

I’ve also planned exciting trips and cruises to gorgeous destinations like Costa Rica, Panama, the Galapagos Islands, and much more! Wherever you want to go, I want to help you have the best time possible! 

I’m available 7 days a week to assist you, so if you ever have any questions, want a unique local recommendation, or need assistance with anything at all, I’ll be ready to help! I recently had a client come down with COVID right before their vacation. I immediately took care of all their bookings and was able to rebook everything so they could enjoy their trip after recovering. I’ll always stand up for you and ensure your vacation goes perfectly, regardless of the circumstances! 

I have a deep love for traveling and adventure, and with almost 20 years in the industry, I know how to bring dream vacations to life. Contact me today to start booking your next great adventure!

Antarctica Expedition Celebrates Beating Cancer
Reviewed By Tracitas - Richmond, VA | Traveled to Antarctica ~ Antarctica
Robert was very professional, approachable, and informed. He worked with us to book an expedition to Antarctica with a relatively new cruise line that required more negoitation and communications back and forth on many unique details. For example, the cruise line web site didnt have an onbline booking system for excursions like sea kayaking. Robert researched this with the cruise line and got us answers in a timely manner. He got us booked for this amazing kayaking experience where as other passengers did not get booked through their agents or were wait listed. I got to kayak near a humpback whale and that was a 'once-in-a-lifetime' nature experience. Robert did very well helping us and we had the trip of a lifetime.

Tulip Time

Ah! Spring in the Netherlands!   Not in March. Seriously. Don't go in March. Yes, it's the least expensive time, and there's a reason for that. If you look at the attached folder, you'll see the only real tulips to be found were in the vase on the ship. We also saw three...yes, three..growing in the wild by a car park one day. That...

Danube River in the Spring

This was my first river cruise, and I had no idea what to expect. We spent a few days in Vienna first, before boarding our beautiful ship the MS Ravel. My "Danube" picture gallery has a bunch of pictures. The thing that always gets me is how small the rooms feel in regards to the published sq footage. 200 sq ft feels much larger on an oce...
