About Me

Delicate Arch Hike in Arches National Park
Delicate Arch Hike in Arches National Park

As a travel advisor with a passion for crafting unforgettable road trips, I specialize in creating customized itineraries that allow you to explore the best of the U.S. at your own pace. With my extensive knowledge of the country’s diverse landscapes, hidden gems, and iconic routes, I help you design a road trip that reflects your unique interests and travel style.

Here’s how my expertise as a travel advisor comes into play when planning your ultimate road trip across the U.S.:

  • 1. In-Depth Knowledge of U.S. Destinations - I know the ins and outs of the best destinations across the United States, from well-known national parks to off-the-beaten-path spots that most travelers miss. Whether it’s the majestic peaks of the Rockies, the red rock formations of Utah, or the historic routes of the East Coast, I’ve got the insider knowledge to help you make the most of your journey. I can recommend scenic byways, quirky roadside attractions, and local favorites that will make your road trip truly memorable.
  • 2. Personalized Itineraries Based on Your Interests - Every traveler has different preferences, and I take the time to understand yours—whether you’re a nature lover, history buff, or thrill-seeker. I’ll tailor your road trip to your exact desires, ensuring that every stop, from big cities to small towns, resonates with you. Want to hike in the national parks, explore charming coastal towns, or experience the heart of the American West? I’ll craft the perfect route that blends adventure, relaxation, and discovery.
  • 3. Expertise in Logistics and Timing - One of the biggest challenges of planning a road trip is figuring out the logistics—how long it takes to get from one destination to another, the best routes to take, and where to stop for rest. I handle all of that for you, ensuring that the driving distances are manageable, your time is well-spent, and the journey is stress-free. I also help you avoid seasonal crowds and recommend the best times to visit specific regions for ideal weather and fewer tourists.
  • 4. Accommodation and Local Recommendations - From cozy roadside motels to luxurious boutique hotels and unique Airbnbs, I’ve got you covered when it comes to finding the best places to stay. I’ll help you book accommodations that fit your budget and preferences, and provide recommendations for local dining spots, attractions, and experiences along the way. Whether you’re looking for a quaint bed-and-breakfast in a small town or a boutique hotel with a view of the Grand Canyon, I’ll make sure you have a comfortable and memorable stay.
  • 5. Customizing for Flexibility and Adventure - Flexibility is key when it comes to road trips, and I understand that some of the best memories are made when you go off the beaten path. While I design a well-structured itinerary, I also leave room for spontaneity, so you can explore local gems, take detours, or even make impromptu stops based on your interests. My goal is to create an adventure that feels personalized and free, without the hassle of planning every detail yourself.
  • 6. Creating Lasting Memories - Ultimately, what sets me apart is my commitment to creating road trip experiences that will stay with you long after your journey ends. From breathtaking views and unique encounters to memorable local experiences, I aim to craft a road trip that leaves you with incredible memories. With my guidance, you’ll have a trip that’s not just a vacation—it’s an adventure that shapes your perspective, fills you with joy, and creates stories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

In summary, my expertise as a travel advisor allows me to turn your road trip dreams into reality. I handle the planning, logistics, and details so that you can focus on the excitement of the journey. Whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or a deep connection with nature and culture, I’ll design a U.S. road trip tailored just for you. Ready to hit the road? Let’s start planning your ultimate road trip across the U.S. today!

Driving Trip Across Country
Reviewed By SCS - Maryland | Traveled to Nevada | USA
We planned a Road Trip from Maryland to the West Coast. We consulted with Road Trips with a View about possible sites to see. Since we have driven this trip so many times - we wanted some ideas for different sites. Carrie had some wonderful ideas. She arranged a three day excursion in Williams, AZ. There we enjoyed a two night stay at a Hotel with all meals included. We enjoyed Shoot Out followed by a train ride to the Grand Canyon for the day. We visited Bearizona, also in Williams, AZ. We visited Cow Town, Wichita, KS. and a host of different sites we had not visited before. I would definitely recommend Carrie and Road Trips with A View. We were extremely satisfied with all of her suggestions. We had a wonderful trip.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

The perfect trip for my family with toddlers!
Reviewed By Traveling Dad - Maryland | Traveled to Pigeon Forge | Tennessee | USA
We were looking to plan our first vacation as a family of four to Pigeon Forge, TN. Since this was our first time traveling with toddlers, we decided to recruit some help with planning. After talking with Carrie from Road Trips with a View about what we were looking for, she provided us with numerous affordable options for housing perfect for a family traveling with toddlers. Finding us the perfect housing options that accommodated all of the needs traveling parents would want. She also provided us with an incredibly detailed and easy to follow itinerary and extensive list of alternative options for things to do, see and eat. She even incorporated our kids naptimes into the schedule she provided! Carrie saved us time and stress while planning our first family vacation and we came home with memories not exhaustion. I can't recommend her enough. We will be using her for every future vacation!

Trip to Iceland
Reviewed By Jstewart50 - Prince Frederick, Maryland | Traveled to Iceland | Europe
I contacted Road Trips with a View to help plan a four day visit to Iceland. My wife and I had booked a cruise to Iceland, Greenland, and the Coast of Canada, however the cruise did not include any activity while in Iceland. We were scheduled to fly into Iceland, board the cruiseship and leave the same day. I ask Carrie and her Road Trips with a View team to fine us a tour that would give us much exposure to Iceland as possible in the shortest amount of time. All Carrie had to work with was we were planning to fly into Iceland three days before the cruise. I ask Carrie to find a hotel close to the harbor, schedule tours that we could do in the afternoon the day we arrived, and tours on the next two days that exposed us to as much of Iceland as possible. Wow! did she deliver, our hotel was one block from the harbor, and was the pick-up point for almost all the tour companies. Carrie gave us several option for our afternoon activities. We toured the town, had a nice dinner and had time to relax. The second and third days the tours she recommended were fantastic. Each tour picked us up at our hotel door and lasted over 10 houirs. The first day we traveled to the South Coast and Eastern part of Iceland. The second day we visited the North Coast and Western part of Iceland. The tours she recommended to us to almost every major attraction in the country. I can't tell you how much her planning allowed us to see everything we had hoped to see. I want to thank Carrie for all her hard work and time she put into the short little trip. I know that if we had tried to plan this by ourself we would have never found this hotel and excursions. Job Well Done. I highly recommend Road Trips with a View.

Best Family Vacation Ever
Reviewed By Jstewart50 - Prince Frederick, Maryland | Traveled to Pennsylvania | USA
We had Road Trips with a View plan our ten day family vacation to the Amish Country in Pennsylvania. They did an outstanding job, Carrie located a six bedroom farmhouse rental just outside of Landcaster. We used this as a starting point to visit Hershey, Hershey World, the Sight and Sound Theather, Dutch Wonderland, working dairy farm, and so many other attractions. We had no idea there was so much to do and see until Carrie planned our trip. She gave us so much detail that all we had to do was decide which activities we wanted to do and have fun doing them. Because there was ten of us on this trip with a wide range of ages, Carrie made sure she had activites we could do together and/or in different groups. I can tell you that at no time during our vacation was anyone boared or unhappy, Carrie's planning made sure of that. I would highly recommend Carrie and Road Trips with a View to anyone who is a little undecided on what to do on vacation, let her company plan it for you.

Utah/Colorado
Carrie planned our road trip from Maryland to Utah and Colorado, and it was the best decision we made. What felt overwhelming at first became completely stress-free with her personalized itinerary. Every stop was thoughtfully planned, the pacing was perfect, and we discovered incredible places we never would have found on our own. She balanced structure with flexibility so we could still enjoy spontaneous moments along the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better adventure

Thank you Road Trips with a View for planning a perfect day at the Grand Canyon for us. I conveyed what I wanted to experience for our day in the Canyon and you planned it perfectly. Thank you for creating a detailed plan to include other suggestions of things to do. We will reach out again for our next adventure out on the road.
