Family and Multigenerational Travel

Volcano National Park

Hi, I'm Shannon, and it's truly a privilege to share my passion for travel with family, friends, and clients. I've had the joy of exploring diverse locales, including the Caribbean, United Kingdom, Europe, Iceland, Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, South Africa, and much of the Continental U.S. Lately, I've been particularly drawn to crafting itineraries to enchanting destinations like Ireland, Italy, Greece, and France. 

 

Why Choose Me?

Experience matters. With 20 years in travel, my firsthand experiences enrich the personalized journeys I craft. I'm dedicated to lifelong learning, constantly updating my knowledge of the fast-paced travel industry. I am certified with leading industry names such as Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Hurtigruten and AmaWaterways to name a few.  I am also a destination specialist for Hawaii and Alaska. This helps me stay informed and build strong relationships with vendors, offering you a more personalized travel experience.

 

Personal Touch.

The internet is a great tool, but it can't replace the personal service and expertise I offer as a travel advisor. I focus on understanding your needs to create customized itineraries that maximize your time and resources, ensuring that you enjoy each destination.

 

What Sets Me Apart?

It's all about relationships and access. The exclusive access I have to top-notch vendors and partners is something a quick Google search or sites like Expedia or Costco simply can't match.

 

Let's Plan Your Next Adventure!

I'd be thrilled to share my expertise, advice, and services with you as we plan your next journey. Let's embark on this exciting adventure together!
