I started travelling when I was very young, moving from the east coast of Canada to Zimbabwe, Africa. That started my love of travelling to new places, experiencing different cultures, and learning new ways of life. I've been fortunate to continue travelling, and would love to help you on your journeys.
Using my personal experience, business expertise, and supplier connections, I will ensure that every step of your trip is taken care of, from departure to return.
Whether your travel plans are big or small, I look forward to making your journey smooth, enjoyable, and memorable!

Thank you Deborah for putting me at ease with my booking and travels.

Great cruise
Reviewed By Margaret - Vancouver, B.C. | Traveled to Greece | Europe
Our travel agent Deb was fantastic. She found the perfect cruise for us. Did a great job getting our flights and shore excursions. She is always available at any time prior or during the cruise. Can’t imagine doing this trip without her help.

Wonderful cruise to Alaska!
Reviewed By Sarahlynn - Langley | Traveled to Alaska | USA
Debora is a delight! She helped us choose the cruise ship that suited our families needs and interests, then booked everything for us and kept us in the loop with offers and additional details along the way. Her kind and bubbly personality made it easy for us to reach out to her with any questions we had. I’d highly recommend Deborah in booking your next destination!

Family Vacation
Reviewed By Crosby - Flamingos | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta | Jalisco | Mexico
Deb was amazing. My brother and his wife don't usually use an agent but I like to travel knowing if something happens that we have someone to contact. Deb found us a good deal and cautioned us about our hotel choice as it didn't have the best reviews. The price was right and I was willing to give this place another chance. It was actually better than our first visit but the hotel still needs some upgrades. My sister-in-law actually liked using an agent and asked me if it was ok with me if she used her for her next trip. Of course I don't mind. This wasn't the first time I've used Deb. She arranged a large trip for me last year and a cruise for this coming May that we are very excited about. Deb found us great tours and all we have to do now is wait to pack for our trip.
Deborah Smart responded
"It is always a pleasure working with you, Tara! And thank you for introducing me to your sister-in-law for booking this trip for the four of you. I'm glad the hotel worked out well, and that you all had a great time. I'm looking forward to hearing all about your fabulous cruise in May, after you get back!"
