About Me

Cruise, All-Inclusive & Custom Travel Specialist

With a passion for travel and helping others, I truly enjoy my work with the team at Travel Leaders. It is rewarding for me to help my clients navigate through the thousands of transportation and lodging options that are quite overwhelming. I am dedicated to taking care of the details, saving you time and providing solutions to enhance your travel experience. When planning for my clients, I always use the same attention to detail as I would for myself. I am as excited about your trip as you are! Over the years I have enjoyed travels to many locations including but not limited to St. Maarten and Jamaica, as well as many within Mexico including Isla Mujeres, Cozumel and Los Cabos. I have been fortunate to create lasting memories full of adventure, culture, art, music and authentic food! It’s all very inspiring. My journeys have enriched my life in ways that can't be measured and I believe that travel will do that for you too. "Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living." -Mary Ritter Beard

My Favorite Trip

My favorite vacation so far has been on the beautiful island of St Maarten in the Caribbean. Even before landing, I fell in love with the pristine sand, true-blue water and all too perfect weather there. In seven days, I did not tire of watching the many aircrafts as they nearly graze the ocean to land on the tiny island near Maho Beach. I witnessed world class sailboat racing during the SXM Heineken Regatta. We spent the afternoon as the only inhabitants of Baie Rouge beach. I challenged myself to finish a handpicked 3.5lb lobster at Skip Jack's Seafood Market. An unforgettable trip!

was an amazing trip
Reviewed By Ma - Belgrade, MN | Traveled to Nashville ~ Tennessee ~ USA
Desiree was very helpful in planning our trip. She did her best to get the best pricing and times that worked for us. We had a great time on the trip and toured many different areas of Nashville. And the country music was awesome. I would recommend any county music fans to take a trip to Nashville. It is well worth the money. Thanks Desiree. You helped make our trip a success.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Jamaica One Love

    For my most recent visit to Jamaica, I chose to stay in Negril. There really is something to be said about the beautiful landscape on the west end of the island. RIU Club Negril was my home for seven sun-filled days. Some of the resort amenities I enjoyed were in-room wifi and liquor dispenser, daily stocked mini-fridge full of sodas and much ne...

    Exploring Atlantis Paradise Island Resort

    Nassau & Paradise Island

    The island of Nassau is only 21 miles long by 7 miles wide, yet there was so much to see and do! I enjoyed shopping at the Straw Market, sampling different flavors of rum cake and strolling Bay Street. Climbing the Queen’s Staircase was well worth the exercise, the panoramic view from Fort Fincastle was the reward. We were treated to an entertai...
