About Me

Luxury and Adventure Travel Specialist

Hello! Welcome!

I'm Sandy, adventure seeker, foodie, and ready to make vacation dreams come true. My love of travel began at an early age with our adventures to Alaska, Canada, and all over the 50 states. As an adult, my wanderlust has taken me overseas, the Caribbean, Mexico, Europe and many more exciting places!

Because I crave new journeys, my husband and I, along with our 3 wild and crazy guys, seek out new places to visit every year. We travel both as a couple, with our family, and I've even traveled solo! We are well-versed in family travel, couple's and romantic getaway, and solo explorations. My experience in all of these areas are vital to helping my clients make the most of their vacation budget and time.

Our extended family also travels together, leading to large groups traveling together! I use my experience both as the traveler and as the travel expert to ensure large groups can wander worry-free! 

However, a true travel love of mine is cruising! What better way to see many places than to have your room and food travel WITH you! Having sailed multiples ships with multiple cruiselines, I'm able to compare to find the perfect ship and itinerary for each and every client. 

Guided tours of European hotspots, relaxing and romantic getaways to luxurious All Inclusives, family friendly theme parks, and exciting city stays are just a small sampling of what's out there for you! 

My favorite days are those when I get to hear about client's adventures and see the photos they proudly bring home to share! I can't wait to help with and hear about your next adventure! So now, all that's left is to decide where I can help you go!

Bucket List Vacations continue with Sandy at the helm!
Reviewed By BucketListTravel - Mandeville, LA | Traveled to Greece | Europe
Sandy and I met by chance a few years ago when a large group trip was cancelled. I was fortunate to have the ability to connect with Sandy who was able to plan a wonderful trip for my husband and I to Alaska. It was a land tour beginning in Fairbanks and south to Anchorage. We were able to see the Northern Lights and the trip was beyond our expectations! Since that trip, Sandy has been our go-to travel agent for our bucket list travel plans. We booked a tour group to see Italy last year and when the trip’s advertised itinerary did not match the reality during aspects of the tour, I voiced my concerns regarding the experience to Sandy and she was able to get me a partial refund. Sandy was there for the good and the bad and wants to make sure you enjoy your vacation and take back wonderful memories. We just returned from a 9-day Greek isle cruise on Royal Caribbean. We had a wonderful time! As usual, Sandy was easy to work with to plan excursions, pre-post stays, and transportation. And right now, she is planning our next trip! Sandy is very personable, listens to what your goal of travel is, and presents options and ideas. Your final travel plans are provided ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect. She makes your travel dreams become a reality!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Definite must see!
Reviewed By G & C - Mandeville, LA | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Sandy assisted with booking our Alaska land vacation - not a cruise - land tour starting in Fairbanks and ending in Anchorage. Sandy provided information/tips/assisted with booking local tours prior to the trip and met with me the week before to review everything to make sure there were no last minute question/concerns. The trip went smoothly and we now have wonderful memories of Alaska!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

My Travel Stories

Luxury Resort Hopping in Nassau!

Just weeks ago, I returned from a 9 day trip resort hopping on the island of New Providence, Bahamas.  Not only did I visit and stay at three different luxury resorts on this, my fifth trip to the island, I was able to explore and experience even more of the local culture, landscape, and culinary arts. What an eye opening experience to be...
