About Me

Bali is an exceptional destination that will impress even the most seasoned traveler.  Exceptional beaches, lush forests, breathtaking vistas, world class snorkeling, ancient architecture, outstanding cuisine, roaring night life, and so much more, Bali is a must visit destination!! 

I love the beaches of Bali, and one could spend years exploring that various Bali beaches. From the black sand, calm bays of Amed to the roaring breaks on Bali’s westside, Bali’s beaches offer everything.  You will find world class diving and snorkeling and outstanding surf breaks.  Better yet, Bali is ready to let you rest and relax on their beaches, offering lounge chairs, umbrellas and first-class service right to your chair.   

Leaving the beach you could spend forever hiking Bali’s mountains, discovering hidden waterfalls, and immersing yourself in the ancient architecture and temples of the island.  And miles upon miles of agriculture is more than Bali’s life sustenance, it is artistic landscape that demonstrates the Balinese devotion and respect for the land.  The interior of Bali is rolling hills and mountain with breathtaking views of endless rice fields.  Rice may not sound exciting, but it is spectacular seeing mile upon mile of perfectly manicured rice ponds, each outlined in lush green, as they rolled up and down the hill landscape.  The perfection of the fields is a testament to the care in which the Balinese treat their land! 

More beautiful than the landscape is the Balinese themselves.  They are warm, kind, caring and incredibly courteous to visitors of their homeland.  Warm and genuine smiles are given to total strangers, and the Balinese truly want you to enjoy and appreciate their island.  It is no wonder that Bali is known for its health and wellness experiences that are part of the fabric of every destination and location.  You will absolutely feel changed from visiting this exceptional land.   

One last important note about Bali is the absolute luxury experience you’ll find all over the island.  You’ll be waited on hand and foot, and massaged hand and foot as well.  Premium cuisine made from the freshest ingredients, and fruit so fresh you’ll feel you need to move there.  Bali has a variety of mocktails in colors and flavors you’ll not experience anywhere else, and each of these may be enhanced with rums and spirits from around the world.  Villas are crafted from marble, designed with comfort as the primary function and flourish with local vegetation.  All this will be yours at an economy price! 

Let me help you plan a life changing trip to Bali.  I will take care of every minute detail of the trip.  Most important, I will listen to what you want from your travel experience.  I will craft a trip that matches your dreams and visions.  I’ll support you throughout your travels and will be ready to assist 24-hours a day once you arrive.  And I’ll touch base with you once you arrive home safe, sound and transformed.  Let’s start planning your Bali experience today!!

Very Easy Trip!
Reviewed By Tony P - Orland Park, IL | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Tim made Mexico easy! For a family spring break trip we wanted an all-inclusive resort with options to eat off grounds. Tim found us a great resort and booked reservations at two very nice restaurants for dinner. He arranged drivers from the airport and for the two nights we left the resort. He planned every activity, all we needed to do was show up. Tim organized everything so we just focused on our family. It was perfect, and I’ll definitely use Tim again!!

Helpful Honest Agent
Reviewed By Marc D - Milwaukee, WI | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Tim responded to me quickly and met all our travel needs. He shared great information about the area we were visiting. He also didn’t promise things he could not deliver; we wanted a super high end stay at an economy price. Tim had a thoughtful conversation with us, then we planned a great trip that turned out to be my wife’s best trip of her life. We’ll definitely use Tim again, he’s honest and knows how to create a great trip!

I recently booked a trip to Boston using Tim. We are so excited about this trip!!! Our kids are learning US history and Tim tipped us off to great places to visit that will be right from the history books!!! Tim listened to what we wanted, a family friendly visit with lots of historical landmarks that will be fun for kids. His knowledge of Boston is amazing and he helped us plan a great trip that is right in our budget. We’ll definitely call Tim for our next trip!!

Amazing Affordable Trip!
Reviewed By Debbie L. - Milwaukee, WI | Traveled to Portugal | Europe
I recently booked a budget-friendly trip to Portugal through Tim, and it turned into the best trip of my life!. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and centrally located, especially impressive given the price point. My favorite was a charming guesthouse in Lisbon that had a rooftop terrace overlooking the city. The package also included a few guided tours, including a day trip to Sintra and a port wine tasting in Porto, both of which were highlights of the trip. Transportation was seamless, with train tickets and airport transfers included. Tim included a helpful travel packet with non-tourist restaurant recommendations, low-cost excursions and a few key phrases in Portuguese. Overall, Tim delivered excellent value!!

Great Trip Short Notice
Reviewed By Stephanie M - Chicago, IL | Traveled to Maui Island | Hawaii | USA
Tim did an incredible job planning our spontaneous trip to Maui. With barely a week's notice, we reached out in a bit of a panic—flights were filling up, hotel prices were climbing, and we had no idea where to start. Tim jumped in right away with calm professionalism, a positive attitude, and some serious magic. He found us an amazing beachfront resort in Kaanapali, secured great flight options at a decent rate, and even arranged for a rental car and a few excursions. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, even on super short notice. We’ll definitely use Tim on our next trip!!
