Cruising is a great vacation choice for anyone and everyone.

And there is a ship and a price range to fit every budget and lifestyle.

Whether you travel as a couple, with the kids, or as a cruise group, cruise vacations are a treat. They can be romantic or filled with family fun, and a great place to have a reunion -- all at the same time. While you and the love of your life are enjoying a cozy afternoon together, the kids can be having a great time at the kid's club. At dinner you can enjoy the company of the grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. Everyone can do their own activities during the day and get together in the evening. It's a great way to stay close to loved ones or friends that are scattered across the miles. I am a Certified Cruise Expert with Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line, and have cruise on these lines as well as Carnival, Crystal Cruises and Celebrity. Let me put a fun cruise vacation together for you (and your group)!

In my thirty years in the travel business I have seen cruising evolve into a great vacation destination for everyone of all ages and lifestyles. It is also a great venue for gathering family and friends for a reunion.

My first cruise was to Alaska where we were able to get close to whales and had great views of the eagles. After a full day of exploring it was so nice to get back onboard and to be waited on by the staff and served wonderful meals.

From the large cruise liners to small ship cruising or river cruising I can offer you great value and choices for a tailored made vacation. You can rekindle romance sailing the Tahitian Islands, cruise along glaciers through the Inside Passage of Alaska or sail the Caribbean or Hawaiian Islands with the warm balmy breezes and experience island living. Cruising allows you to discover and explore a region while having the comfort of returning to your ship.

I have completed many of the cruise line’s scholar’s programs as well as their refresher courses to keep me up to date with the latest developments and enhancements.

Cruising is one of the most ideal ways of seeing the world while being able to fully relax at the same time. Let me help you narrow down all the choices to the perfect ship, the perfect destination and all at a perfectly reasonable price. After all, cruising is one of the most cost effective ways of seeing the world, too. And if you choose a far flung location and feel the need to really see that country, I can arrange a cruisetour package that best meets your needs, whether to Ayers Rock in the Australian Outback, a tour of Eastern Europe, or a trek into Denali National Park in Alaska. I have expertise in Hawaii, the Mexican Riviera, Alaska, Canada and New England, the Caribbean, South America (especially the Amazon), Australia and New Zealand, Europe and the Meditteranean, and Asia. I am a Certified Cruise Expert with Princess, Cunard, Holland America, Carnival, Cruise West, MSC, Costa Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises, and am constantly updating myself on these and other cruise lines. I frequently inspect ships. If you have some sort of specialty cruise idea and need help fleshing it out and getting it going, feel free to contact me and let me guide you to the perfect cruise.

Cruising to me is the most relaxing and hassle free way to go on a vacation. It allows you to unpack once and visit exotic islands and countries while enjoying excellent food, onboard service and entertainment on the ship. For families, cruising is the best vacation. Parents don’t have to worry about entertaining their kids. Everyone in the family is well taken care of. I have cruised on mainstream-priced lines Princess and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. I am a Certified Cruise Counselor with Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruise Line. With eighteen years experience in the travel industry, I have arranged numerous family reunion group cruises. There are so many different cruise itineraries to choose from, you can certainly explore the world via a cruise ship. Imagine yourself sailing away on your “Dream Cruise” and enjoying the sunsets and sunrises of a far away land. Call me today to book your next adventure via a cruise ship to see the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, Vatican or even the Sydney Opera House.

Cruising is a wonderful way to explore the world around you: relax with your favorite book, work out in the gym looking out on the ocean; learn new things in an educational seminar, such as in cooking or photography; or dance the night away under the stars. You can do pretty much anything you want or nothing at all if that is your whim. Some of my favorite activities center around the water, either on a beach or exploring below the surface snorkeling. Over the past 10 years I have tried to take at least a cruise a year to keep current and to see first-hand what the onboard service and experience is like. I have cruised the Caribbean both Eastern and Western enjoying both the days at sea as well as exploring my favorite ports. I have cruised Europe, specifically in the Baltic region with my highlight being an extended stay in St Petersburg, Russia. Alaska is another favorite and my latest thrill was zip lining in Juneau; what a rush! My favorite cruise destination thus far, is the Galapagos Islands a few years ago--absolutely a once in a life time experience. Please let me share with you in planning your next fantastic cruise vacation!

Cruising… whether it is river cruising or ocean cruising - this is one of the best ways to travel the world. Just think, one time unpacking and a vacation that includes all your meals and entertainment. Cruising can be a stress free vacation. You cannot say there is nothing to do to keep busy. You can be as busy as you want or not. Whether it is Mexico, Hawaii, Europe, Asia, South Pacific, Australia, New Zealand or South America there is a cruise ship or river barge that sails to that part of the world. Just think of all the fascinating places in the world to visit. Why not cruise there.

With thirty years in the travel business, I believe I know cruising pretty well and can point clients to the cruise line I think they would truly enjoy. I am a Certified Cruise Expert with several cruise lines including: Carnival, Celebrity, NCL, Regent and Royal Caribbean. Let me help you find your perfect cruise.

Testimonials
I love to cruise because a cruise vacation offers many conveniences and comforts to today’s hurried travelers in need of relief: being able to unpack just once while visiting different places, being pampered and spoiled on a ship, not having to worry about eating out and local restaurants while enjoying a pretty fine level of cuisine onboard. I've specialized as a cruise travel agent for many years and have taken cruises in Asia, Europe, the Panama Canal and the Caribbean -- from Mexico cruises to Alaska cruises. I have cruised on many lines, including mainstream-priced Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess and Costa. My goal is to find the right cruise vacation for you at the best value! I look forward to arranging your next cruise holiday! I am a Certified Cruise Expert with Princess Cruises, Crystal and Regent Cruises, and an  Accredited Cruise Counselor.
