Specializing in Europe, Luxury Cruises & Resorts

Travel is my passion, and it always has been. My goal as a travel advisor is that every client has experiences that delight them while enjoying a hassle-free vacation. I have lived in Europe and all over the US. I have also traveled all over the world as a solo traveler, with my immediate family, in multi-generational groups, with friends and with co-workers. I love experiencing the world with people I care about! I have visited all 50 states and 30+ countries, including Canada, Mexico, Cost Rica, Peru, Israel, Turkey, Thailand, Australia, Singapore, and all of Western Europe.

A memorable vacation with people you care about is a fantastic way to celebrate important milestones. Whether a birthday, honeymoon, anniversary, graduation, retirement or family reunion, exploring and relaxing with loved ones is always the BEST way to celebrate! I love to plan vacations for couples, friends, families, and multi-generational groups looking for a vacation that lets them to discover the world together and build lasting relationships. I want my clients to relax knowing that I have taken care of the details and have designed and coordinated an excellent vacation experience.

My clients definitely benefit from my passion for travel and research! I know how important the details are for ensuring smooth travel, whether it be flying into the right airport, staying in the right part of town, or finding those activities that bring a destination to life. I meticulously research to find the best experiences for my clients, for everything from the perfect place for a romantic dinner, the best hikes for stargazing, or which resorts have excellent accessibility features. I also know the importance of staying within a budget and finding the best value. As a travel advisor, I make it a priority to complete training courses and certifications that ensure I recommend the best properties and itineraries to my clients. I have Expert Level certification in several destinations, including Alaska, Hawaii, and Costa Rica; and on several cruise lines and hotels, including Viking, AMA Waterways, Princess, and Marriott. I stay up-to-date on current events, such as weather, strikes, and political unrest, that might affect my clients planning a vacation or while on vacation. While my clients are traveling, I provide support and handle the logistics if any issues should arise. This means, even in this day of travel hiccups, my clients focus on having fun and making memories!

I would love to personalize a vacation that meets the specific needs for the people you are traveling with so you can make the memories that last a lifetime. Let’s plan your next journey together!

European River Cruise Expert

European River Cruise Expert

<p>Hello, I'm LaDonna Littlejohn, and as a dedicated travel advisor, my passion is to curate extraordinary European River Cruise experiences that transform your travel dreams into reality. Having lived in Europe for several years, I've been fortunate to immerse myself in the rich tapestry of its diverse cultures, stunning landscapes, and timeless history. This personal journey has equipped me with the unique insights necessary to tailor exceptional river cruise adventures just for you.</p>
<p>My extensive travels have taken me on multiple European river cruises. I've explored the scenic beauty and cultural richness of various rivers including the enchanting Rhine, the picturesque Danube, and the historic Seine, among others. I've experienced river cruises at different times of the year and with different distinguished cruise companies. This varied exposure has allowed me to understand the nuances and special highlights each season brings, from the vibrant summer blooms to the charming winter markets.</p>
<p>As a retired teacher and school librarian, I bring my love for history, culture, and storytelling into every travel plan, ensuring your European River Cruise is more than just a vacation—it’s a journey through time and tradition. I relish crafting itineraries that not only showcase iconic landmarks but also uncover hidden gems, offering an authentic taste of local life.</p>
<p>To truly elevate your river cruise experience, I can design the perfect pre or post-stay tailored to the journey’s theme. Whether it’s exploring the rich art history of Paris before sailing the Seine or unwinding in Budapest's thermal baths after a Danube adventure, these personalized stays enhance your trip's depth and enjoyment.</p>
<p>In collaboration with you, I aim to understand your preferences, whether you're seeking luxurious relaxation, cultural immersion, or a blend of both. My meticulous attention to detail ensures every aspect of your journey is thoughtfully considered, from accommodations and excursions to dining experiences that tantalize your taste buds with regional specialties.</p>
<p>One of the most rewarding aspects of my role is the ability to personalize your cruise experience. Whether you're interested in vineyard tours along the Rhine, exploring quaint villages along the Danube, or experiencing the art and romance of the Seine, I am dedicated to crafting an itinerary that reflects your passions and interests.</p>
<p>With Littlejohn Journeys, my mission is to provide a seamless travel experience, one where you can simply unwind and create memories that will last a lifetime. From the moment we begin planning until your safe return home, I am here to guide you every step of the way, making sure your European River Cruise is nothing short of spectacular.</p>
<p>Travel, to me, is about making connections—whether it's with new friends, fascinating places, or your inner self. I'm excited to help you discover the joys and wonders of the world through river cruising, and I look forward to planning your next unforgettable adventure.</p>
<p>Let’s embark on this extraordinary journey together, turning your travel aspirations into an effortless reality. With Littlejohn Journeys, it's not just about the destination, but the journey and the endless memories you create along the way.</p>

Ladonna was excellent for our trip start to finish. She engaged us via telephone to get to know us, got a list of interests from the family we wanted to see, and also made suggestions of great places to go see. She was easily accessible by both phone and text, had quick responses at all times during planning and the trip itself, and is amazingly friendly. She was more excited for our trip than we were at times! She handled all the booking at all hotels, trains, cars, EVERYTHING, and within our budget! It went super smoothly the entire trip, everything worked out with only one minor hitch which was a manual booking a friend had recommended. That said, she worked through the hitch with perfect professionalism and it was a complete non-issue in the end. Considering this was a week in Ireland, a couple days in Northern Ireland, and another week in Scotland with trains, planes, cars, hotels, castles, ruins, the titanic, etc. it was simply amazing all around.
