About Me

Arches National Park
Arches National Park

I love visiting National Parks. They are great places to go whether you are on a budget or want a luxury experience. The National Parks let you get close to nature as you enjoy the many hiking trails. I have a personal goal to visit all of America’s National Parks. So far, I’ve experienced over 25 National Parks. I enjoy hiking throughout the Parks as well as learning about what makes each one special. It can be daunting to decide which National Park to visit. Let me help you find the National Park that meets your vacation needs.

Peace of mind
Reviewed By Donna - Torrance, CA | Traveled to Oahu Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Dora was fabulous and a life saver! She provided us several options for a complicated schedule involving multiple parties which definitely saved us a lot of time and effort trying to coordinate everything. When we were unable to travel due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, Dora again came to the rescue and handled the cancellation of all plans. It was the easiest trip we never took! Thank you, Dora!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Exploring 30 National Parks: My Journey So Far

I turned 30 this year — not by the calendar, but according to my National Park map. Having visited 30 National Parks, I’m halfway toward my goal of exploring all 63 National Parks in the United States. My National Park journey began at Haleakala National Park on Maui when I was in high school. Back then, I thought of it as just ...

Disappearing Glaciers

I have a goal to visit all 63 US National Parks. I recently visited my 29th at Olympic National Park. The Park encompasses areas down at the beach all the way up to 7980 feet Mount Olympus where a number of glaciers reside. The glaciers were visible along the Hurricane Ridge trails and view points now but they are melting.  A number of ar...

Best Hikes at Grand Canyon's North Rim

I’ve been to the Grand Canyon a few times, but it was always to the popular South Rim. I mean, why not? The South Rim is easy to get to from Williams or Flagstaff, there are lots of choices of hotels in the Park or nearby, and the shuttle service makes getting around just so easy. This time, I was looking for a vacation destinat...
