About Me

Monet's Home and Gardens, Giverny, France

My focus has been on family trips and special occasion travel with the goal of finding those experiences that make each traveler happy, whether it's a theme-park trip to Florida or a custom vacation through Europe. I've planned numerous trips for parents visiting students during study abroad programs, as well as other family vacations both in the U.S. and Europe. If you are celebrating a milestone, I would be thrilled to help you plan your dream vacation whether it's a romantic honeymoon in the Caribbean, or a stay in a Irish castle. Regardless of what I'm planning, one thing stays the same, and that's my dedication to you.

I have an extensive background in research and know how to find the places and things that match your interests and travel style. I also keep up on travel news and destination information through webinars, specialist trainings, and a whole lot a reading. This information along with the knowledge I've gained firsthand through my own travels are all benefits passed on to you. In 2021, I passed the exam to become a Certified Travel Associate and maintain my standing through yearly continuing education.

Some of my own favorite trips have been family vacations to the various Atlantic Coast beaches and stunning southern Florida beaches, visits to Paris and other parts of France (bucket list trips to see Giverny and Provence), a wine-tasting journey in Sonoma County, California, and the immersive experience of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ at Universal Orlando™.I welcome the opportunity to help you plan your ideal vacation, whether it’s a tour of Europe, a memorable family trip, or a special honeymoon. Contact me, and together we can make it happen!

Wonderful, relaxing trip to key west
Reviewed By Courtney - Sunny isles beach, Florida | Traveled to Key West ~ Florida ~ USA
Joanne is an amazing travel agent. I have used her to book more than a couple trips now and I have been pleased with every single vacation! My last trip to Key West was everything I could have asked for! She even took the time to book my boyfriend and I a snorkeling excursion!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

A honeymoon dream trip!
Reviewed By ALE - Clark PA | Traveled to Ocho Rios ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
From the beginning, Joanne was amazing! She took time to get to know what my husband and I were looking for in a perfect honeymoon. She provided us with several options that fit our expectations, walking us through the best options. Once we chose, she booked us the most amazing room with an extraordinary view. She also supplied us with a great deal of information about our resort before we left, so we were super prepared when we arrived. Joanne also went above and beyond by booking us a private driver to take us on a special excursion. We could not have had a better experience. I HIGHLY recommend Joanne Dunmeyer and would not hesitate to use her again.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

A week-long fairy tale
Reviewed By Laurie - Murrysville, PA | Traveled to England ~ Europe
Joanne Dunmyre helped me plan a trip that I had been wanting to take my entire adult life. She presented me with several options, and together, we selected the one that was perfect for my husband's and my schedule. After reviewing trips to Great Britain, we selected an 8-day CIE tour of England that had free time built into the schedule. Joanne provided us with dining options, she researched details involved in visiting the many choices of sites and she was thoughtful about the logistics surrounding navigating places we had never been like London and Edinburgh. Joanne put her time into suggesting places we could see beyond the structured tour. She was patient in answering our many questions about accommodations, including everything from, "could we drink the water?" to "what size are the beds?". Together, we studied maps, especially of London, and explored key places to see, like Kensington Gardens, St. James Palace and and St. Paul's Cathedral.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Christmas in Rome
Reviewed By John M - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Rome ~ Italy ~ Europe
She's thorough, professional, knowledgeable, creative and has a terrific sense of humor. Her commitment and follow-up is second-to-none! She is a joy to work with! She helped me with finding the perfect condo, our flights, airport transfers, restaurant suggestions, travel insurance, and booking tours. She created a clear, easy to use itinerary and basically took all of the stress and hassle out of the trip planning process. When our youngest child landed on the Covid list during the last day of our trip, she swung into action and helped me with changing flights, extending our lodging, working through travel insurance issues and and much more. Joanne is a joyful person and it was actually fun working with her. I highly recommend that you clone her. :-)
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
