About Me

My husband and I at a Belgium Christmas Market

Hi, I’m Mary Chicoine, Travel Manager at Rider Productions, LLC and your personal guide to unforgettable travel experiences! With almost 30 years in the travel industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to crafting tailor-made trips perfectly suited to your unique style and interests.

I specialize in some of my favourite destinations across Europe—including Italy, Ireland, the UK, Greece, and Germany—as well as tropical escapes in Costa Rica and the Caribbean. I also love helping clients discover the magic of Disney World and Universal Studios in Florida. Plus, I’m experienced in planning both scenic river cruises and luxurious ocean voyages.

I’ve planned honeymoons, destination weddings, and all-inclusive family trips for both luxury and budget-friendly travelers.

Having traveled extensively through Europe, the United States, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Caribbean myself, I bring firsthand insight and enthusiasm to every journey I design.

When you book with me, you get more than a travel agent—you get a trusted partner who listens, understands, and delivers. Let’s make your next trip extraordinary and stress-free!

Feel free to reach out anytime!

Adventure awaits!

Expert Training & Insider Travel Know-How

I’m committed to excellence, keeping up with the latest trainings for all major river and ocean cruise lines, resorts, and destinations. I stay sharp by attending webinars, site visits, and following industry trends to make sure you get the best travel advice.

Before focusing full-time on travel, I spent 25 years as a customer service agent for a major airline, giving me deep insight into air travel logistics.

I look forward to delivering memorable journeys tailored to you.

BEST HONEYMOON!
Reviewed By Cassie L. - Granby, CT | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA
Mary was great with responding to all of my questions. She responded to all of my emails in a timely manner. She recommended ideas and things to do on the islands we were staying at in Hawaii. Mary found the best hotels to stay at on both islands and worked around our schedules to decide the best flight times and dates. Because planning a honeymoon can be overwhelming especially in Hawaii with so many places to travel, she helped narrow down my decisions based off what we were looking to do and not do and we appreciated her input. I would highly recommend using Mary to help plan any travel plans and trips! You won't be disappointed!

Best Anniversary get away!
Reviewed By Barb B - West Granby Ct | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
It took only a few days after I contacted Mary with my "specification requests" to find us a lush tropical excellent resort. She had a variety of options and destinations and after choosing one...I let Mary do the rest. What a magical and memorable time we had. Thank you Mary ...you are now our "go to vacation expert extraordinaire" ( She also gave us tips that helped our time away be stress free.)

Great experience, cruise perks
Reviewed By Jstu - Leicester, NC | Traveled to Europe
Mary did great job working with us to put together a great cruise with Explora. She was flexible in letting us explore our quirky hotel preferences and giving us great input. Booking through an agent got us several perks on the cruise, from on board credit to a welcome reception. Highly recommend.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
