About Me

Travel Agent Advisor Professional

Ready for some excitement? Welcome! A travel agent helps you with our knowledge of different destinations and the best deals that can be found. You can't decide where to go or what to do! That’s where I come in! I can help you plan everything from beginning to end. It has been my pleasure to arrange trips for my family and friends. Something I love is putting together trips and my groups have consisted of as many people. I had the unique opportunity to live on the idyllic isle of Bermuda. I even obtained my Bermudian drivers license, which wasn't easy considering they drive on the opposite side of the road! So, if Bermuda is the site of your dream vacation, I would be happy to help you carry out this desire. I have explored most sites on and off the beaten path. You can arrive by air or cruise ship, so the choice is yours! So enough about me, let's talk about your plans to embark on your next vacation. Talk soon!

Italy Travel Agent Specialist

Italy Travel Agent Specialist
   My first trip to Europe was to Italy.  As the plane was trying to land all of a sudden the pilot came on and said " I need to abort landing!". Well what a start to my first big adventure!  We later found out a farmer's livestock had gone astray across the strip preventing the landing. Wow that...Read More ▶

Niagara Falls
Reviewed By Happy in Norfolk - Virginia | Traveled to Niagara Falls | New York | USA
My wife and I never consider this destination! We have traveled all over the world and after Denise suggested trying this iconic spot.. we said why not! She recommended the Maid of the Mist boat tour and that was awesome! Through planning with Denise, my wife and I had a marvelous time. She will definitely help us with our next vacation.

Best Solo Travel
Reviewed By Donna - Chevy Chase, Maryland | Traveled to Caribbean Sea | At Sea | At Sea
Traveling Solo has always been on my bucket list, but I was nervous about it. I’ve previously had great experiences with Denise in planning my trips, so I thought maybe she could help me with traveling solo. There is not always someone around to travel when and where I want to go. To my surprise, Denise has a wealth of experience with solo travel. She informed me about the best and safest places for female solo travelers. She eased my nerves. After discussing many options, I decided on taking a cruise. I had been skeptical with cruises sole due to I didn’t want to have to pay the single fare supplement. Denise knew how to handle the situation and I was so grateful that I would save money. I cruised for 12 days in the southern Caribbean. It was so beautiful! I was so excited to visit islands that I hadn’t visited. Denise arranged wonderful excursions at each port that were beyond the customary offerings of the cruise line. Even though, I was a solo traveler, I was not alone. I met a few people on the cruise that I will keep in touch with. I’m looking forward to my next solo trip, maybe to one of the resort options that we talked about. I can say now that I am an official solo traveler! I can't wait to see the rest of the world! I recommend Denise if you are considering solo traveling! Donna

Winter get-a-way
Reviewed By Cindy - Boston, Mass | Traveled to Florida | USA
My family and I could not take another day of winter. Denise helped me to find a fun get away place that we could all enjoy. We went off the Margaritaville Resort in Florida. It was just what we needed! From the plush robes, pools and they even had a teen spa. We are so happy and grateful for the suggestion from Denise. We will consult her for our future travel needs.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Making Memories
Reviewed By Derek - Richmond, Va | Traveled to Mexico
I wanted help planning a trip to ask my lady to be my wife. My coworker recommended Ms. Denise – says she knows her stuff. Told Ms. Denise what I wanted, she understood the assignment and wasted no time. After talking about a few options, I went with her recommendation. She set us up in over the water bungalows in Mexico which was on point! Butler and all! To top it off she arranged the sunset dinner cruise - where I took a knee for my woman to be my wife. Everyone around us cheered and clapped. I’ll never forget the look on my lady’s face. We’re getting busy with Ms. Denise for our destination wedding.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
