With a lifelong passion for travel and a wealth of firsthand experience, I specialize in crafting personalized, budget-friendly itineraries tailored to the unique needs of families, couples and groups. As a parent of three, I understand the importance of balancing affordability, convenience, and comfort when planning trips. Whether it's cross-country road trips, cruises, all-inclusive resorts, or a dreamed filled honeymoon I've navigated the challenges and joys of family travel firsthand. My professional background encompasses retail sales, hotel sales, and reservation booking, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of the travel industry's intricacies. These roles have honed my ability to identify value-driven options and negotiate the best deals for my clients. Having lived and traveled across various regions of the United States, I've gained deep insights into diverse cultures and lifestyles. Additionally, my participation in mission trips to the Caribbean allowed me to immerse myself in local communities, enriching my perspective on global travel.By combining my personal experiences with professional expertise, I aim to create memorable travel experiences that resonate with each client's unique preferences and aspirations.

I’ve loved crafting trips for family, friends, and co-workers everything from beach escapes to city-break adventures. My secret sauce? Active listening.

Every detail matters and I’m ready to obsess over yours.Let me guide you through your journey to see the world, with trips tailored just for you. Ready for the adventure?

Eve Carter / ECTC - Excellent Service: Professional and Personable
Reviewed By sbharr0 - Lexington, KY | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands | Caribbean
I highly recommend ECTC. It was an absolute pleasure working with Eve Carter / ECTC Travel. Eve is: knowledgeable, professional, pro active, prompt, responsive, patient and persistent. I very much appreciate Eve’s help and I look forward to working with Mrs. Carter in the future. I was impressed with Mrs. Carter’s ability to operate with absolute discretion, plans I made were not communicated outside of our correspondence and my wife was wonderfully surprised when the trip was presented. Mrs. Carter researched, and provided a number of options for our trip, with varying amenities at different resorts. I was able to work with Mrs. Carter to tailor a magical, all inclusive experience for my wife at the Blue Haven resort in Turks and Caicos. Eve sent correspondence of all payments made in a prompt manner, and provided physical and digital documentation when all balances were paid in full. I, like others, prefer having this correspondence for my records so her diligence in this area was great, and it spoke to her professionalism. The Blue Haven resort utilizes an in house tour desk to allow its patrons the ability to arrange their excursions on the island. Mrs. Carter helped me correspond with the tour desk to arrange activities, so these events could be coordinated ahead of our arrival, which helped maintain the element of surprise and enhanced my wife’s experience; again, showing Mrs. Carter’s professional rigor and regard for her client. In addition to helping plan the trip’s destination, and helping me coordinate events at the resort, Mrs. Carter helped navigate our travel with American Airlines. Mrs. Carter provided insight into American Airline’s practices, she also helped with seating changes and upgrades. In addition to this, Mrs. Carter used the Itinerary App, to communicate with me (in real time) and kept me aware of travel changes. On two occasions, she was able to communicate flight time changes before the airline’s app sent the information.
Eve Carter responded
"Thank you so much for the wonderful review—I truly appreciate it. I’m so happy to hear that your trip went well overall. My heart always skips a beat when I hear a client is having an issue during their stay, but the Blue Haven team was great to work with and very quick to help get everything resolved. I truly hope the rest of your experiences were amazing. It means so much to me to know you both enjoyed the trip, and I’m grateful you trusted me with your travel plans. "
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed By MedicAng78 - Newburgh, Indiana | Traveled to Norway | Europe
Eve helped my husband and I plan an unforgettable trip for our anniversary. We flew into Amsterdam and took a train to Rotterdam where we boarded the Holland America line cruise ship, the Rotterdam. We did a seven day Norwegian trip that included several really great stops. The trip was full of scenic, beauty, culture, art, and really good food! We ended the trip with a chartered bus trip back to Amsterdam, where we attended the tulip festival, took a canal boat ride, and toward the city.

Birthday trip!
Reviewed By Ginasteven - Lexington ky | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands | Caribbean
We spent our days scuba diving and parasailing over the beautiful blue waters. The trip ended with a romantic dinner on the beach, just the two of us, listening to the waves. It was such a thoughtful gift and a truly unforgettable experience.
Eve Carter responded
"I’m so glad this birthday trip turned out to be such a great one! I was excited to help your husband plan it, especially knowing it was a surprise I felt sure you would love. Please let me know if I can help either of you again in the future. I would love to be your personal vacation planner."

Romantic sunset on the beach in Aruba

A Sandy White Christmas

If you haven't experience the joy of traveling to a warm destination during the cold winter months you are missing out. This past December my husband and I were able to spend our Christmas holiday on the white sandy beaches of Aruba. The weather in Aruba tends to be about the same all year long, plus Aruba is located outside the hurricane belt. ...

Anniversary cruise complete with a smile
Overall, a wonderful trip that I am so glad we did! I only wish we would have stayed 2-3 more days afterwards vs just 1, to explore more of Amsterdam. I cannot thank you enough for everything you did to make this a memorable and easy trip! We got a very nice return offer, so you will be hearing from me soon to book our next adventure!
