Worldwide Vacation Travel Specialist

I have been a full-time travel advisor since 1985 and I still love my job! Everyone ALWAYS asks me "Where is your favorite place that you've been?" - That's a really tough question because I can honestly say I LIKE everywhere I visit as it's always some type of experience. It might be educational, cultural or just relaxing! Doesn't matter to me because I don't think I will ever be too old to learn.  I am proficient in Luxury, Vacation, and Corporate Travel.  

There is no doubt that this industry has changed quite a bit over the last 37 years but I still feel such satisfaction when a Honeymooner returns from a fabulous trip and can't wait to tell me all about it, or when a Grandma/Grandpa arrive at a hotel and are treated like VIPs because I took a minute to contact the front desk and announce their arrival as "very special guests" of mine.

It's a BIG world out there - where would YOU like to go??

I'm VERY happy to help you make that dream come true!

LIFE IS MUCH TOO SHORT - YOU MUST TRAVEL - IT'S GOOD FOR THE SOUL!

 

Never Too Old to Learn

The world is huge and we can't all have been everywhere.  I do know that I am determined to see all 7 continents and I only have 2 left on my list.  In the mean time - I love visiting new destinations, seeing renovated hotels and resorts, and especially seeing the sights and meeting the local people everywhere I go.  I hope my clients ALSO find a love for Travelling the World!  It's the best way to learn about people, places, and things!

The most amazing trip we have taken so far
Karen has booked several vacations for me and my husband, this time she did double the job, setting up everything for us and our friends. Everything went so smooth, from booking our flights, helping us with shore trips. to making sure we had the cabins with everything we wanted. Karen is amazing, she makes you feel like your the only client she has. I tend to have a million questions and she is always there when I need her, without her making me feel like I'm becoming a pest. I can't wait until she works on my next vaction

The best of Ireland with Tauck
Karen always makes travel arrangements easy and stress free. Easy to work with and takes care of all the details. She always follows up including double checking for lower air and rental car costs as trips get closer to departure.

A vacation to remember!
In March of this year, we had Karen put together a trip for us to the Caribbean. We wanted to go back to beautiful Jamaica to renew our wedding vows. Brian and I got married there 20 years ago. Since Karen did such an awesome job arranging that trip, we knew we could count on her to make this one just as wonderful. She did not let us down. Karen is friendly, knowledgeable and always does her very best to make our vacations memorable and fun!

Thanks Sue - After all the years of booking your trips you are more like FAMILY rather than a "customer". Love and hugs to you and Brian and Cheers! to many more happy years of marriage! xo
