About Me

Hot Springs with a view!
Hot Springs with a view!

I've been fueling my passion for travel for over 25 years and I'm here to turn your dream getaway into a reality. With my expertise, insider connections, and an unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional service, I'm your go-to travel advisor for unforgettable adventures.

Every trip I create is custom-made to match my clients' unique travel desires. Whether it's soaking up the sun in a luxurious overwater bungalow in Bora Bora or soaring over the stunning landscapes of New Zealand on a private helicopter tour, I'm here to make sure your next trip is nothing short of extraordinary.

And when it comes to traveling with a group, I handle all the nitty-gritty details so you and your crew can sit back, relax, and make memories together. From family reunions to wellness retreats and special celebrations, I'll bring your adventure to life with seamless logistics and personalized tours. You can count on me to create an adventure fit for all.

One of my happy clients sums it up perfectly: "[Julie] walks you through all of the planning and works to get you set up for the best possible experience. She reviews options to tailor your trip to fit your wants and needs. During the trip, she is attentive to everyone in [the] group fulfilling their travel goals. Not all travelers desire to see the same sights and she is flexible in the handling of groups to work with individuals on transportation and schedules...Great experience and cannot wait for the next trip to be just as fabulous as the last one."

I promise to bring my passion, expertise, and commitment to first-class service to the table. Your only job is to pack your bags and prepare for an unforgettable experience!

My best travel memories have been made w/ Julie
Reviewed By Pam - Belton, Texas | Traveled to Rhine Valley ~ Germany ~ Europe
What can I say? Julie is an awesome travel agent and even more of a gem of a person. She is a very competent and organized planner. Julie lends her passion (and experience) for travel to help her clients create personalized, memory making experiences...and from beginning to end, Julie remains in close contact with her clients to help make their experience as seamless as possible. I would, without reservation, rely on Julie to plan my family's or my travels. (Destinations thus far with Love Group Travel: Rhine River Cruise, Aruba to Barbados Yacht Cruise, Santa Fe, NM- Health and Wellness Retreat)
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing Travel with a Personal Touch!
Reviewed By Shari - Gulf Breeze, FL | Traveled to Rome ~ Italy ~ Europe
We took the most amazing trip to Rome and an 11 day cruise of the Eastern Mediterranean aboard the NCL Spirit and we cannot thank Julie enough! She took the time to research the best option for what we wanted in our trip. Julie took care of every detail of the trip and it showed in how smooth the trip was! We have so many great memories to treasure because of her help!
Julie went above and beyond providing excellent service by checking in with us during our trip to be sure everything was what we expected. We are so appreciative of her help and look forward booking our next adventure with her! Thank you Julie!!!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
