Julia Starling
Palm Coast, Florida Travel Agent
Specializing in River Cruises
I recently had the privilege of going on an Avalon river cruise to Paris and the Normandy Beaches. The Tapestry II was beautifully decorated and the public areas were comfortable and welcoming. The best feature was the panoramic floor to ceiling sliding windows that brought the lovely countryside right into your room. There are so many wonderful features to share, the fantastic dining, the expertise of the local guides....please view my pictures as a picture speaks a thousand words.....

Biltmore Estates in the Fall
I decided to take a short weekend trip to the mountains with my family last November to Biltmore Estates in Asheville, North Carolina. Known as the largest private home in the U.S., I was eager to see just how grand and luxurious it is. I was not disappointed! The long meandering driveway up to ...

Paris & the Heart of Normandy
This was the trip of a lifetime! From the moment I boarded Avalon Waterways Tapestry II, I was transported to another time and place. Exploring France by river was a truly unique and magical experience. The staff and cruise director were warm and friendly and the accommodations on board were more than ...

A success trip abroad.
Reviewed By Trina F. - St. Augustine, FL | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Julia was quite pleasant to work with. This was my first trip out of the country and she helped me plan a trip to Italy. I asked A LOT of questions and went back and forth multiple times and Julia never appeared to be bothered, which greatly helped my anxiety level. The trip went off without a hitch and we all enjoyed ourselves immensely. THANK YOU Julia for your expertise. I will definitely recommend and will be back to plan our next adventure.

Hawaii lives up to the word PARADISE (went to Mau
Reviewed By Dottie - Palm Coast | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA
She's a busy lady, but always makes time for you, even if it's after hours for her. After giving her ideas of what you'd like and where, she takes the reins and gets the job done. She checks up on flight times and alerts you as necessary. She took care of our flights, and car rentals at two locations. Only issue was had was the flight back from Hawaii, it was too long (9 1/2 hours into Dulles from Honolulu), then another 2 hours from Dulles into Orlando. (going was Orlando to Denver which wasn't bad - just 4 hours, then a break for an hour or two, then on the plane for another 7 1/2 hours to Maui, but it broke it up nicely) - coming home should have been more of another 4 hour with a break and then the remaining hours. But all and all, Julia did a great service for us and we of course will continue to use her and Travel Leaders for our travel needs.
