About Me

Hawaii & Africa Specialist, River Cruise Expert

 

My career in travel spans over 30 years, and it remains a source of profound enjoyment. I consider it a privilege to help clients design their dream vacations, turning aspirations into cherished memories.

The enchanting islands of Aloha (Hawaii) have held a special place in my heart since childhood. Through annual visits, I developed a deep connection to its vibrant culture and the authentic spirit of Aloha. It truly is a unique destination that doesn't require a passport.

My enthusiasm for discovering and sharing new destinations is unwavering. Africa stands out as a particular favorite; while the allure of its incredible wildlife initially drew me in, I fell equally in love with its rich cultures, warm people, and the sheer adventure of a safari.

With over 28 years of experience in river cruising, I advocate for this unique way to truly experience a destination. Imagine your hotel gently navigating waterways, bringing you to the doorstep of quaint towns and picturesque villages. This "unpack once" convenience allows for an intimate exploration of regions often missed by other travel options.

I would like to say that Rhonda is the go-to person if your looking for a great vacation . Rhonda has been there and done that when it comes to travel and this makes her a valuable asset to have when looking to go on vacation. Not only does Rhonda have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to travel , she is extremely personable, likeable and very friendly, this makes Rhonda a true GEM ! A lot of times we contact Rhonda out of the blue with questions and she is always available with input and information we need at the last minute. She doesn't push you aside like others might . Rhonda simply is an awesome woman , My wife and I love her and she is not only an outstanding agent , but she is a wonderful friend that is there when you need her to be ! As long as we travel , Rhonda will always be our go-to agent , and if you become a client , consider yourself fortunate !!
