About Me

Ocho Rios, Jamaica
Ocho Rios, Jamaica

I specialize in European river cruises, multi-country European itineraries, and all-inclusive resort getaways — with a focus on milestone celebrations like honeymoons, babymoons, and anniversaries. My clients receive comprehensive travel packets with every detail mapped out: logistics, timing, what to expect, and what to pack. I believe travel should feel effortless from the moment you book until the moment you're home. I work with trusted partners including Viking, Sceptre, and Kensington Tours to craft thoughtful, well-researched itineraries tailored to each traveler. Whether it's a romantic river cruise through Europe, a multi-city adventure, or a relaxing beach escape, I handle the details so you can focus on the experience. Thorough. Organized. Honest. That's how I work.

All Inclusive Fun
Reviewed By Lou44 - Carol Stream | Traveled to Jamaica | Caribbean
Jamaica is where it’s at! Best trip of my life and Shannon is the main reason behind it. From Club Mobay to excursions like the catamaran cruise, Dunn’s River Falls and snorkeling, and everything else, her recommendation of Palace was everything we needed to have a perfect time in Ocho Rios!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

First cruise, many more to come!
Reviewed By Patty - Kenosha WI | Traveled to Germany | Europe
Shannon took care of everything from beginning to end. Met with us several times and answered millions of questions. She helped us choose the cruise and the cruise line. If she wasn’t sure she found answers to anything we wanted to know. She goes the extra mile to make sure no details were missed, and everything was very organized. We definitely will continue to use her services and have already recommended her to other people. Viking bends over backwards to make every aspect of the cruise experience excellent. I can’t say enough about the captain, crew, excursion guides, cruise ship and destinations where we docked. The food was phenomenal! We hated for the trip to end! Before we debarked we booked our next cruise through Shannon and Viking.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Sister Trip to Universal and Epic!
Reviewed By LeeWadman - Chicago, Il | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
Planning this trip with my sisters was such a fun experience, and we couldn’t have done it without Shannon’s help! We were mainly going to Orlando to visit the Harry Potter worlds and check out the new Epic Universe park, and Shannon made the whole process so easy and stress-free. She provided us with several hotel options at different price points and distances from the parks, which really helped us find something that fit our needs and budget perfectly. She was always responsive, knowledgeable, and patient with all of our questions. Thanks to her, everything was smooth and well-organized, and we were able to just enjoy our trip. I would absolutely recommend Shannon to anyone planning a Universal trip!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
