A journey to the Italian Riviera is like stepping into a postcard-perfect paradise where azure seas meet rugged cliffs adorned with pastel-hued villages clinging to the hillsides. From the glamorous allure of Portofino to the laid-back charm of Cinque Terre, the Italian Riviera captivates with its stunning scenery, delectable cuisine, and effortless elegance.Begin your adventure in the iconic town of Portofino, where luxury yachts bob in the harbor and colorful buildings cascade down the hillside like a painter's palette. Stroll along the waterfront promenade lined with chic boutiques and trendy cafes, soaking in the glamorous ambiance that has attracted celebrities and jet-setters for decades. Climb the winding paths to the medieval Castello Brown for panoramic views of the harbor and surrounding coastline, or take a boat tour to explore secluded coves and hidden beaches along the rugged shoreline.Next, venture to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cinque Terre, a collection of five picturesque villages perched precariously on cliffs overlooking the Ligurian Sea. Hike the famous Sentiero Azzurro trail that connects the villages, passing through terraced vineyards, olive groves, and fragrant citrus orchards along the way. Stop in each village to savor fresh seafood pasta, sample locally-produced wines, and admire the colorful houses that seem to spill down the hillside into the sea.For a taste of old-world charm, visit the historic town of Portovenere, where ancient churches, medieval fortresses, and winding cobblestone streets transport you back in time. Explore the dramatic cliffs and hidden grottos of the nearby Cinque Terre National Park by boat, or simply relax on the sun-drenched beaches and watch the world go by.No trip to the Italian Riviera would be complete without indulging in its culinary delights. Feast on freshly caught seafood, artisanal pesto, and creamy gelato at seaside trattorias overlooking the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean. Sip on crisp Ligurian wines as you watch the sunset paint the sky in shades of pink and orange, casting a golden glow over the rugged coastline.As your journey along the Italian Riviera comes to an end, you'll carry with you memories of sun-kissed days spent exploring charming villages, swimming in crystal-clear waters, and savoring the simple pleasures of la dolce vita. Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or romance, the Italian Riviera offers an unforgettable escape that will leave you yearning to return again and again.

We took a September cruise of the Western Caribbean for my daughters graduation gift. Amber really went above and beyond to help me plan and execute the cruise. After the trip was paid for, she made calls to the cruise line to get us a $50 credit on the ship and dining at a nice restaurant on the ship! She did not have to do any of that. She also booked all of the excursions that we wanted at the different stops along the way. She then compiled all the information in one app so that we would not have to search in different places for each excursion. Without this it would have been so much more effort on our part knowing what we needed to do. Also I looked to see how much I could book the cruise myself, and there were no rooms available with a balcony view. Because of her connections as a travel agent, Amber was able to get me an ocean view balcony room when the ships site showed none available! I will definitely go though Amber for the next trip we plan.

Amber was great in planning a trip for myself and my daughter. Thanks to her amazing help, in just two weeks, we traveled all over Italy. She organized everything including our flights and train trips. I would definitely use her again.

We decided to go to Rome as a group of friends. There were 3 couples and we all wanted to pay separately. Amber organized everything from lodging, activities, private car service and train travel. We didn't have to worry about anything. Amber's knowledge of the area was very helpful and she gave us tips. We had an amazing trip!!
