About Me

Landed my 7th Continent, Antarctica in 2024!
Landed my 7th Continent, Antarctica in 2024!

Worldwide travel is my passion! I happened to be sincerely blessed to have experienced unique travel around the globe for last 40 years. I have visited 7 continents and 70+ countries and had a fabulous time.  I have designed and arranged incredible adventures for my family, friends and clients.  I became an Accredited Cruise Counselor and Verified Travel Advisor to provide comprehensive travel specializing in Ocean & River Cruises, Crafted Vacations, FIT's, and Luxury Experiences.   

Whether you're looking for accommodations, flights, cruises, guided tours, all-inclusive, family, groups, luxury travel, or faith-based experiences, I have you covered! Simply tell me where you want to go, and how, and I'll help you figure out the rest. I work directly with many partners and suppliers to get the best deals for all your travel needs. 

While working with me, I want you to be completely happy with the experience from start to finish. As a veteran traveler, it is most important to me that you know I have your back when it comes to every aspect of planning and preparing - before your trip even begins! I'm here to take all of the important factors into account so you don't have to. My work ensures that your trip is not in any way interrupted. As you'll see, I use my expertise to create travel plans that have the highest amount of both fun and satisfaction. My goal is for us to continue to plan your trips together for many years to come.

Viking cruise
Reviewed By Happy traveler - VA | Traveled to Europe
Rebecca is a consummate professional who is detailed oriented and thought of everything we needed for our trip. When we had a couple of hiccups on the cruise she successfully handled with the cruise line . I have referred her to multiple people and everyone has always been happy with the service they received. She does not complain like my last agent and just goes above and beyond.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Portugal
Reviewed By El - Seattle, Washington | Traveled to Portugal | Europe
Rebecca did a great job for us on getting us set up for our trip to Portugal on AMA Waterways. She outlined the advantages of going with AMA instead of another cruise line. She was always available to answer all of our questions and went to bat for us to get us transfers to our hotel in Lisbon without being charged for them. We would definitely recommend Rebecca to our family and friends.

Trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed By Erin O - Hillsborough, California | Traveled to United Kingdom | Europe
I had a daughter turning 30 years old, I asked her where she wanted to go to celebrate? She said the UK. The whole UK. I immediately called Rebecca at Droppintravel.com and said HELP! How do I see the whole UK without a car? She went to work on the trip. Came back with an itinerary that made it work and I have just completed the trip. We went to London by plane, Cardiff Whales by train as well as Edinburgh Scotland and Glasgow, plane to Dublin Ireland. Every hotel was fabulous, location was perfection. If you have a dream vacation and need an expert please don’t hesitate go to Rebecca!
