Cozumel, Cancun, the Riveria Maya and Playa del Carmen. Some of the most breathtaking vacation spots you’ll ever travel to. Imagine, walking down a white sand beach, fresh made margarita in your hand, bright and sunny skies as far as your eyes can take you and the sound of ocean waves rolling up on shore. Are you ready to pack your bags yet? Not quite? Okay, can you imagine yourself relaxing in one of the more than thirty spa resorts these places have to offer? Where professionals at the top of their field will care for your every need. Reset your body, mind and soul with pampering, relaxation and personalized beauty treatments. Now are you ready? I thought so. If all-inclusive is your style Cancun is your place. You’ll enjoy endless food, drinks entertainment and activities throughout the day and night. No need to budget when it’s all you can eat and enjoy. Cancun is a popular destination for honeymooners, spring breakers, families and destination weddings. There’s something for everyone when you visit this paradise on the Yucatán Peninsula. You’ll enjoy activities such as snorkeling in the clear blue waters, hiking along picturesque trails, jet skiing through the lagoons and taking in the spectacular views while parasailing. If you’re a history buff then the Mayan Museum has you covered with its ancient artifacts and iconic pieces of the sites of Palenque, Chichén Itzá and Comalcalco. Or, take a tour through the well preserved Mayan Ruins of Tulum. As your Mexico Travel Agent Advisor I’ll make certain that your dreams come true within your unique budget. Contact me for your next visit to the Cozumel/Cancun area.

Travel Representative for the Amalfi Coast

Travel Representative for the Amalfi Coast

<p>The dramatic Amalfi coastline is dotted with pastel-colored villages  -  villages that spill down verdant hillsides into the turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea. It’s a sight that will leave you speechless - just like it does to me everytime I see it.As a travel representative for the Amalfi Coast, I want you to experience everything this destination in southern Italy offers. Start your morning with a cappuccino and sfogliatelle pastry while overlooking the sea, then work up an appetite by hiking the rugged coastline trails. Indulge in seafood pasta, lemon pizza, and white wine at a cliffside trattoria. As the sun dips into the sea, stroll the cobblestone streets with gelato in hand. When night falls, rest your head in a historic hotel and dream of what discoveries tomorrow may bring in this Mediterranean paradise. The Amalfi Coast awaits your exploration.Indeed, the Amalfi Coast is one of the most stunning places on Earth with breathtaking natural scenery. Miles of winding roads hug the coast, offering amazing views at every turn. Sheer cliffs plunge into the turquoise sea, hidden coves reveal secluded beaches, and picturesque towns are sprinkled along the shore. There are countless spots that allow you to stop and soak in the beauty. Places like the famous lookout Positano Spiaggia Grande or seafront promenade in Amalfi town are truly breathtaking and memorable.For an even more scenic experience, take to the water. A boat tour lets you see the coast from the Mediterranean. Or rent a kayak or paddle board and get an arm workout while surrounded by natural splendor.With a coastline this gorgeous, the beaches are equally stunning. The most famous is Positano Beach, but smaller coves like Duoglio di Tordigliano beach are more peaceful. Pack a picnic, bring a good book, and spend the day lounging, swimming or beachcombing.Lush forests, panoramic vistas, secluded beaches - everywhere you look, it’s a scene straight out of a storybook. A perfect blend of land and sea, adventure and relaxation, the Amalfi Coast has something for everyone. No wonder it’s considered an Italian paradise!Cruise along the coastline to secluded beaches and grottoes only accessible by sea. Stop in picturesque Emerald Grotto near Conca dei Marini. The options are endless.For an active adventure, hike the Path of the Gods trail. The 3-hour trek offers breathtaking panoramas from atop a mountain ridge. Or hike through lemon groves and terraced hills on the Valle delle Ferriere trail. Both are suitable for casual hikers.Head to Marina Grande beach in Positano, a perfect spot for sunbathing and swimming in crystal-clear water. Or visit the secluded beach in the Fiordo di Furore, a dramatic fjord accessed by hikingIndulge in delicious Mediterranean cuisine like homestyle pasta, fresh seafood, and lemon-infused desserts. Don't miss a sfogliatella, a flaky pastry filled with sweet ricotta cheese. And of course, sample the world-famous Amalfi coast lemons in limoncello or lemon granita.Browse the chic boutiques in Positano for resort wear, handmade sandals or ceramics. Pick up handcrafted lemon products, artisanal paper or cameos in Amalfi. Or purchase custom-made leather goods along the winding road in Minori.No trip to Italy is complete without pizza, and the Amalfi Coast doesn't disappoint. Try the pizza alla Sorrentina, topped with mozzarella cheese, basil, and tomatoes. Or sample pizza alla Napoletana, made with mozzarella cheese and anchovies.With the coastline along the Tyrrhenian Sea, fresh seafood is abundant. Indulge in spaghetti alle vongole, pasta with clams, or pasta con le sarde, pasta with sardines. Fish stew, called zuppa di pesce, and grilled fish are also popular.The Amalfi Coast, as noted, is  known for its lemons, and limoncello, a lemon-flavored liqueur, which is a must-try. Also sample other lemon specialties like granita al limone, lemon sorbet; delizia al limone, a lemon cake, and lemon pasta.You can also choose from a variety of Italian wines like Greco di Tufo, a full-bodied white wine, and Aglianico, a bold red wine.The delicious cuisine and wines of the Amalfi Coast, combined with the stunning scenery, create an unparalleled culinary travel experience.Whether you're looking to admire the scenic beauty, explore the ruins of Pompeii, go boating or swimming in crystal-clear waters, or simply stroll through the shops and piazzas with a cone of Italian gelato, the Amalfi Coast delivers. Close your eyes and imagine yourself on the terrace of a cliffside villa, a glass of limoncello in hand, and the sun setting in paints of gold and pink.The Amalfi Coast is paradise found, my friend. That's why I am excited to serve as your travel representative. Give me a call now so we can start planning your Amalfi Coast holiday!</p>

Daena is friendly, knowledgeable and great to work with. It is our second time working with her to plan our Disney vacation. She is very knowledgeable and presents options in a no pressure manner to meet your preferences and budget. She made some great suggestions for new things to try (restaurant venues and tours). Loved them all!!
Mandy - Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Daena did a wonderful job of planning and making all of the arrangements for our cruise vacation to Alaska. She handled the flights, accommodations before and after our cruise, all cruise arrangements, all cruise excursions, dinner reservations, absolutely everything. She made sure everything we needed was handled and we could just enjoy our vacation. I have used Daena in the past and will definitely use her in the future. I highly recommend having her plan your next trip!
