Tina Knows Cruising!
Though we have never met in person, Tina in Boston and me in San Diego, have worked together seamlessly. She has helped twice with big groups of my friends, first a Panama Canal trip for 26, and a year later an intensive 17 port/21 day Caribbean cruise for 12 of us.she makes sure to listen carefully to each individuals needs and concerns. Also, her connections have helped us find better deals and better perks. And very important, she has ‘fixed’ errors and annoyances that have happened a few times, while onboard. I and many of my cruising friends now call Tina for all variety of vacations and have placed their plans and their confidence in her abilities.
Henry, Bobbie San Diego, CA
Alaska Cruise Group Success!
Tina Allen is hands-down the BEST travel agent we’ve ever worked with. She made planning our family cruise to Alaska effortless and actually fun. Every detail was handled with such care and personalization that we kept saying we should be paying her. Tina went above and beyond at every step, and we truly felt like VIPs the whole way through. She knew what excursions to plan and avoid. If you want an stress-free, unforgettable vacation, call Tina — she’s a game-changer!
