About Me

Alaska, Europe, Cruises & Custom Vacations

My favorite part of travel planning is creating a trip that feels like it was designed just for you. I take the time to understand your travel style, priorities and budget, then research the options and bring all the details together into one seamless vacation. From Alaska and Europe to ocean and river cruises, all-inclusive resorts and completely custom itineraries, I help my clients sort through the choices and find the experiences that are truly the right fit for them. And my support doesn't end once your trip is booked. I'm always just a quick text or call away to answer questions, offer recommendations and help along the way. My goal is to make travel planning easier, more personal and less stressful—from our first conversation until you're home again.

Trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed By Shari - Westchester, NY | Traveled to Europe
I was so fortunate to find Erin to help plan our trip of a lifetime to Europe with my mother, husband, and three teenage boys. Traveling through Europe in the summer can be expensive, and Erin was amazing at helping me stay within my budget without sacrificing location, comfort, or experience. She found wonderful hotels in London, Amsterdam, and Paris, all in perfect locations, and helped us choose great tours and sightseeing experiences along the way. From the very beginning of planning until the day we left, she was thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our trip special. If you’re looking for a kind, knowledgeable travel agent who will really listen to what you want and work within your budget, Erin is your girl! Can't wait to start planning my next adventure with her!

Trip Of A Lifetime
Reviewed By PMB - Huntsville, Alabama | Traveled to Italy | Europe
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Erin and the incredible job she did planning our 30-day European adventure. Our trip included Barcelona, a Mediterranean cruise, Venice, Florence, the Tuscany countryside, and Rome—and every detail was flawlessly organized. Erin handled everything: hotels, cruise arrangements, car rentals, and all excursions. The accommodations were perfectly located and comfortable, the excursions were thoughtfully chosen and enriching, and the transitions between cities and countries were seamless. Having a trip this complex run so smoothly is no small feat, and her expertise truly showed. What stood out most was Erin’s attention to detail and her understanding of how we like to travel. Each destination felt well-paced, never rushed, and every experience added something special to the journey. We were able to relax and fully enjoy ourselves knowing everything had been carefully planned. This was truly a trip of a lifetime, and we owe that to Erin’s professionalism, knowledge, and dedication. If you’re looking for a travel agent who will take care of every detail and create an unforgettable experience, we highly recommend Erin. We will absolutely use her again for future travels.

    Amazing Alaska Family Cruise Experience
    If you’re looking for someone to help plan your next cruise, RUN—don’t walk—to Erin! Out of the seven people traveling, SIX of us were first-time cruisers, so I’m pretty sure Erin deserves some sort of honorary degree in patience after dealing with me! She was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and always willing to answer my million questions. And her excursion recommendations? SPOT. ON. Especially the Juneau whale-watching tour. TAKE THE RECOMMENDATION. You will NOT be disappointed! Erin also saved me from several “OMG WHAT HAVE I DONE?!” panic moments. She was always just a text or phone call away, and knowing I could reach out when I had a question made such a huge difference. I am SO grateful for all of Erin’s help, guidance, patience, and expertise. She made planning our trip so much easier—and honestly, probably saved my sanity a few times along the way! yourself a favor and call Erin. You’ll be glad you did!
