Alaska; River Cruise; Group Travel Specialist
Kaptain Ken has several passions, but my favorite 3 travel specialties are easy. My favorite Place = Alaska. My favorite travel experience = River Cruise. My favorite work projects = Group Travel. Alaska is truly beautiful; untamed; wild; and interconnected between nature and the circle of life. It's breathtaking views; wildlife; and cool summer temperatures are just a few of the reasons I love it so much. The River Cruise experience is so relaxing, but its also adventurous. Personal service in an intimate atmosphere; inclusive price and features; and visiting historical locations. All of that while traveling and living in luxury with only a small number of guests. That's the real benefits of river cruising. Organizing and customizing my group programs is very rewarding and challenging. Making a travel experience that several of us can enjoy together is the work. Seeing the smiles and getting the thank yous are the rewards. Come join me on one of my next Group Adventures!

Fantastic Adriatic cruise

This was our second trip with Ken. He did a great job of setting everything up for us for a trip overseas. Ken was able to arrange transportation connections to get us from the hotel to the cruise ship.

An epic trip!
Reviewed By S & G - Battlefield, MO (formerly Joplin, MO) | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Ken was great to work with from the very beginning planning stage for our land and sea trip to Alaska all the way through until we returned! From the very beginning Ken’s knowledge and expertise proved to be invaluable. Ken listened and then quickly responded and customized our trip to fit all the things we wanted to see and do. His knowledge of tour companies also enabled us to save money while enjoying outstanding excursions not only on land but in the ports we visited. When we had questions, and there were many, Ken responded quickly and throughly answered all of our questions and addressed any concerns we had. Our land and sea trip to Alaska was an involved trip to plan and Ken enabled it to truly be a trip of a lifetime! I highly recommend Ken Mayer; you will not be disappointed in choosing him to be your travel agent!

Better than we could have imagined!!
Reviewed By Spencer & Rachel Dobbs - Neosho, MO | Traveled to Montego Bay ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Ken gave our multi-family vacation a tailored and specialized approach in our planning. Between educating us on how to make the most of our trip (weather, activities, travel practices with children, pandemic protocols, etc.) and booking us the trip of our dreams, we felt confident our travel was in great hands. Ken and Team have an attention to detail with an itinerary for you to use before/during/returning from your stay. It was a lifesaver in making sure we were prepared and on track for our trip. Knowing we had parties from across the US going, he even accommodated a group Zoom so we were all up to speed with each of our priorities and questions. He answered questions we didn't even know we had. Many thanks for taking care of our group, Ken.
Truly our favorite vacation ever, and we will be using GalaxSea Cruises as our go-to vacation planner moving forward. Next up: group travel...can't wait! Thank you, Ken & Team! You are truly our Dream Team!!
