Cruise, Family, and Inclusive Travel Specialist

Me, Mike, and Becci in Glacier Bay National Park

Hi, I’m Bryan Coogler, and I believe that travel should be possible—and meaningful—for everyone.

I started my travel business, C to Sea Travel, in 2023, but I’ve been planning vacations since I was 12 years old. I still remember that Disney World trip like it was yesterday: I spent a full year reading a planning guide until the pages fell apart, scribbling notes and mapping out each step of our trip to make the most of it. Even then, I realized that I loved helping people get the most out of every moment.

Now, as a professional travel advisor, I get to bring that same sense of care, organization, and excitement to every trip I help plan. Whether you're dreaming of sailing past glaciers in Alaska, exploring the Mediterranean on a European cruise, or relaxing at a beachside all-inclusive resort, I’m here to make it happen—seamlessly and stress-free.

I specialize in cruise travel, particularly to Alaska, the Caribbean, and Europe, and I also work with families and couples looking for all-inclusive resorts that offer great value, comfort, and unforgettable experiences. My clients come to me not just because they want to travel—but because they want someone who truly listens, gets to know their preferences, and curates a trip that fits them.

One of the things I love most is working with people who have felt like travel might be out of reach—due to budget, accessibility, family dynamics, or just not knowing where to start. As a kinship caregiver myself, I understand that family can look different for everyone, and I take pride in helping both traditional and non-traditional families explore what’s possible together. Whether you’re planning a trip with your children, grandchildren, siblings, or chosen family, I’ll guide you through every detail.

I especially love working with:

• Families (including those navigating special needs or blended family dynamics)
• Couples looking for romantic escapes
• LGBTQ+ travelers seeking inclusive, welcoming destinations
• First-time cruisers or travelers who want expert guidance

I’m known for being approachable, honest, and highly detail-oriented. I don’t offer cookie-cutter packages—I ask questions, I listen, and I tailor each experience to match what you really want out of your time away. My favorite moment is hearing someone say, “This was exactly what we needed."

Travel has changed my life in the most beautiful ways. It’s helped me connect with people from around the world, learn new things, and step away from the day-to-day to just breathe. I want to offer that same gift to you.

When I’m not working with clients, I’m usually traveling with my husband Mike—my favorite travel companion—or tending to our little farm in Washington. We’ve had the joy of sailing through Glacier Bay, exploring historic towns in Europe, and relaxing on sun-soaked beaches in the Caribbean. Every trip adds something new to my knowledge and helps me serve my clients even better.

If you’re looking for someone who’s in your corner from start to finish, who will take the time to understand what matters to you, and who’s just as excited about your trip as you are—I’d love to work with you.

Let’s make your next vacation something truly special.
