Let’s plan your perfect trip !

Congratulations on taking the first step to planning the best trip for you. Please take a couple of minutes to answer the questions below. This will help me get to know you so that I can help you choose the perfect river cruise or small ship experience.
 These questions will help narrow down when you can travel, what cruise you’re interested in, the type of cabin you’re looking for, cancellation and medical insurance needs and any other special requirements. I want to make sure that you get the most of your cruise!

Once you have submitted the questions, I will either email or call you to see how you would like to proceed with planning your trip. Unless you have a specific travel date, due to the research time it takes to qualify the best itinerary, ship, airfare, insurance needs, etc – I may charge a $125 planning fee which will be deducted from your final payment.  My only wish is that you don’t take my information and then book directly with the cruise line or an online cruise company as our rates should all be the same. (actually I usually have more value added benefits) and by booking with me, you’re supporting a small business instead of a huge conglomerate.

Having 28 years travel experience, I can deliver personalized customer service and excellent support.  You are not just a number to me and you deserve to be treated like a real human being by a real human being. I actually care if you have a good trip or not and strive to make each one the best trip ever.

  • I can help decipher the differences in the types of staterooms offered by the cruise lines – did you know that a french balcony cabin with one company is only 135 sq feet while most others are 170 sq feet ?  Which would you prefer ?
  • I can help you choose where to sit on the airplane – would you really want to spend 12 hours on an overseas flight right next to the bathroom ?  Ever booked a flight online only to find that “direct” does not mean non stop and your flight made two touchdowns on the way to your destination. Are transfers included with your trip ?  If not, you don’t want to be fumbling with a taxi at an airport where you don’t speak the language.
  • Most people think they have cancellation insurance protection on their credit card but are shocked to learn that many cards only cover once you are in destination and if anything was to happen before departure, all monies paid would be completely forfeited.

With my expertise, I can guide you through all those scenarios and more. Thank you for contacting me and I can’t wait to get started.

 

Don’t forget your Travel Insurance!

You know that old saying "Don't leave home without it" but in this case, its travel insurance. Many people don't realize that they are not covered by their provincial or state health plans when travelling out of the country. I am able to provide quotes for both Canadian and US residents as long as you contact me before you depart. Please don't forget as the cost is minimal compared to the cost if something happens.
