Mexico, Costa Rica, Hawaii, Jamaica, Caribbean

I LOVE the sand between my toes and the sound of the ocean. My many adventures to Mexico (Including Rivera Maya, Cozumel, Huatulco, Isla Mujeres), Costa Rica, Jamaica and other Caribbean destinations can help you plan your next adventure. When I travel I enjoy snorkeling (including with manta rays and whale sharks in the wild), bird watching, relaxing on the beach and enjoying good food and beverages-none of that is in any particular order. Let me make your vacation planning easier. Give me a call or send me an email and I can get you one step closer to that well deserved vacation. I have been a travel agent over 34 years and my experience and expertise can you find the destination and accommodation you need and deserve.

This was our first time visiting Alaska and doing a cruise. What a wonderful experience it was! Jacqie was able to explain everything to us prior to our trip starting, so nothing was a surprise! Great experience that we will remember forever!

The Best Trip We Haven't Taken Yet
Jacqie listened to our desires and helped us chose a vacation location that best suited our hopes and needs. She created a luxurious trip within our budget. Once COVID hit and we had to cancel she did ALL THE WORK to get us refunds!
