About Me

Ha' Penny Bridge, Dublin, Ireland
Ha' Penny Bridge, Dublin, Ireland

Hi, I’m Christine Hollis, a travel advisor specializing in enriching, well-paced journeys for adults who seek more than just a getaway—they crave connection, discovery, and delight. Whether it’s gliding along storied rivers on a luxurious cruise, joining expertly guided tours through historic cities, or immersing yourself in local culture, I design travel experiences that blend comfort with curiosity and leave lasting impressions.

As a seasoned travel advisor, I bring a wealth of expertise backed by multiple cruise line certifications, including specialized training in both ocean and river cruising. I’m a proud member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) and hold certifications from several leading tour operators, ensuring I stay current with industry standards and destination knowledge. My personal travel experiences span dozens of destinations—from the lush landscapes of Ireland and the volcanic beauty of Hawaii to the vibrant cultures of numerous Caribbean islands. With years of hands-on vacation planning and booking, I offer clients not just recommendations, but insight born from real-world exploration and professional education. I bring both industry insight and personal experience to every itinerary I create.

For me, the joy of travel lies not only in exploring new destinations, but in connecting with diverse cultures, savoring local cuisine, experiencing unique sounds and styles, and embracing the richness each journey offers. I can do the same for you.I travel two to three times per year—typically one international adventure or cruise and several domestic explorations—as I continue to uncover the beauty and diversity of the United States. This firsthand experience allows me to offer informed, tailored recommendations that reflect a wide range of travel styles and interests.

I take the time to truly understand my clients—their preferences, pace, and priorities—so I can craft journeys that are thoughtfully tailored to their style. Whether you're a frequent traveler or planning your first big trip, I’ll guide you through every step with clarity, care, and enthusiasm. My goal is to make travel seamless, meaningful, and unforgettable.

My passion for travel is rooted in a love of exploration and shared experiences—especially those I’ve had while discovering the world alongside my husband. When I’m not planning journeys for others or embarking on my own, I cherish time spent with my family and actively volunteer within my local community. I’m also proud to be involved in the arts scene in my area, where creativity and connection thrive. Whether through travel, service, or the arts, I’m committed to building a strong, open, and loving community and to inspire others to embrace the world with curiosity and kindness.

Contact me so I can help you explore the world your way!

Wonderful vacation planner!
Reviewed By travelingwags - Cranberry, PA | Traveled to Greece | Europe
Christine helped us plan our bucket list trip to Greece. She helped us organize our 2 week trip as it was overwhelming to even this mildly 'expert' travel planner. She was VERY open to our desires and suggestions as well as providing us with great suggestions that she had experience with.

The Best of Italy
Reviewed By Family fun - Franklin, Pa | Traveled to Italy | Europe
From day 1 she helped us with planning our vacation. We expressed what we would like to see while we in Italy. She worked hard finding our flights that was best for us and set up our transfer to make sure we got to where we needed to be. Everything went smoothly because of her working diligently on our vacation. She did answer every email and every call in such a timely fashion. We treated us as though we were her only clients.
Christine Hollis responded

Hawaii 2025
Reviewed By HulaSue - Knox, PA | Traveled to Hawaii | USA
Christine helped us plan a Hawaii trip for our 50th anniversary with our children and grandchildren (10 in all)! We did not just pick a tour off the shelf. Christine and I were in constant contact booking each hotel (with her suggestions), car rental, flights (we were leaving from and returning to multiple locations!), and reservations for attractions. She also gave some recommendations for restaurants. We were talking daily and weekly for about 6 months and she was always willing to listen to what we wanted to do and to make it happen. As a result we had a wonderful 2 weeks together on a vacation we all still talk about a year later. Thank you so much, Christine.
Christine Hollis responded
