About Me

Arras, France
Arras, France

I’m Tyler, a funeral director and travel advisor who helps people plan meaningful, memorable getaways. I specialize in river cruising and polar expeditions. The kinds of trips that slow you down, immerse you in culture and nature, and leave you with stories you’ll never forget.

As someone who works closely with families during life’s hardest moments, I’ve come to deeply appreciate how healing and celebratory travel can be. Whether it’s a long-awaited retirement cruise, a family reunion, or a “just because” escape, I love helping people mark their milestones with purpose and joy.

Some of my favourite travel memories include wandering the canals of Amsterdam, standing on the D-Day beaches in Normandy, and uncovering the charm of London’s hidden corners. I’ve also soaked up the sun in Varadero and Mexico, cruised the Caribbean, and explored the beautiful East Coast of Canada, especially Nova Scotia, where my family roots run deep.

These days, my heart is in helping clients experience Europe’s rivers, the icy edges of the Earth, and anywhere that feels like a reset button. I also help with Caribbean cruises, all-inclusive escapes, and other relaxing getaways. Whatever you’re dreaming of, I’m here to help make it smooth, exciting, and completely yours.

Awesome Trip with Awesome Service!
Reviewed By JC - Thunder Bay, ON | Traveled to Punta Cana | Dominican Republic | Caribbean
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Tyler as our travel planner for what turned out to be one of the most memorable family vacations we've ever had! With three distinct birthdays to celebrate—mine, my preteen son's, and my sister's—this getaway was not just a trip; it was a grand occasion that required special attention. I did have a fairly specific vision of what I wanted in a resort and location. I admit, I might have come off as a bit daunting with my detailed requests, but Tyler rose to the occasion brilliantly! From the moment he stepped in, I felt reassured knowing I was in capable hands. He took the time to listen to my wishlist and translate it into reality. He tapped into his knowledge of the best beach destinations, offer recommendations, and even presented options I hadn't considered. I was blown away by his thoroughness and creativity! When we arrived at the resort, all I could do was smile. It perfectly matched everything we asked for and more! The s

2-week fam trip
Reviewed By Jackenape - Thunder Bay | Traveled to Caribbean
We recently had the pleasure of working with Tyler to plan a two-week vacation for our family, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! Right off the bat, Tyler took the time to ask us a tonne of questions, diving deep into our preferences and special requests. His personalized approach made all the difference! Tyler provided us with several fantastic options that perfectly matched our needs. We had a list of specific requirements for our resort stay, and he found places that checked every single box! It was almost overwhelming (in the best way possible) trying to choose from his suggestions because they were all so amazing and exactly what we were looking for. The quality of service we received was top-notch; Tyler's attention to detail and dedication to ensuring we had the best experience really stood out. Plus, his extensive knowledge about different resorts made it easy for us to trust his recommendations

Family Birthday Trip!
Reviewed By BeautsMC - Thunder Bay | Traveled to Caribbean
We recently decided to use a travel agent for our family reunion beach vacation, and it was a game-changer. The resort Tyler recommended was ideal for our group, and his suggestions for off-resort activities truly enhanced our experience. Initially, I thought I could handle the planning myself, but I realized how much stress it relieved to have an expert manage the details. He even arranged private transportation for us to and from the airport, which made everything seamless. Overall, I’m convinced that using a travel agent is worth it. It allowed me to relax and enjoy quality time with my family without the usual planning headaches. I won’t be planning vacations on my own anymore! Highly recommend Tyler for anyone looking to simplify their travel experience. As for pricing, everything was laid out clearly, which made it easy to understand what we were getting for our money. We felt like we received exceptional value for the level of service and quality options presented. Thanks Tyler!

My Travel Stories

Adventure through Europe

I’ve always believed that travel leaves a mark on us. A few years ago, I had the chance to visit several places that had been sitting on my wish list and I still think about that trip often. It wasn’t just about seeing famous landmarks or ticking off destinations, it was about experiencing them. Amsterdam was the first stop. I remember st...
