What do you want to do? - Go on vacation cruise. (It’s why you clicked in here right?)
Why do you want to go? It’s fun. It’s relaxing. You get to see the things and eat the food.
How do you want to plan this vacation? Easily, enjoyably. Stress freely. Not 1 billion open Google tabs and so many choices you don’t even want to go anymore.
Now what are you GOING TO DO? You are going to call me to get started.
I am going to help you plan that cruise to see the Mediterranean, Alaska, the Caribbean or even…Australia. I make sure you hit the cities you know and love and maybe a few fun new cities to explore. You just tell me where you want to go, and I make the magic happen.
The CliffNotes version: You tell me where you want to see in the world, and I build you the perfect cruise vacation.
We include some fun pre or post cruise travel, which simply means you are going to spend a little more time in your beginning or ending port city so you can fully explore that town.
Example – your cruise starts in Barcelona. So you are going to spend 2-3 days in Barcelona before the cruise starts. I book you in a fabulous hotel in the center of the city, where you can just walk out and see all the wonderful things Barcelona has to offer.
I will hand you recommendations on Barcelona attractions and highlights you can simply walk to and enjoy. I give you restaurant recommendations, better still, I’ve already made those reservations for you. You asked to see the city’s highlights, look at that, tours are booked and your tickets are in your hand. All you do is look at your (gorgeous) itinerary and see “Oh, I have the Sagrada Familia today at 2PM”
That is what you are doing today. The rest of your day is either planned out because you asked for it to be OR you are free to stroll this amazing city. A city full of history, food and culture. You are free to step into a little café for lunch just because it looks good. Shopping, lots of opportunity for shopping.
After your tour, you can still wander the city and see the beautiful night life. Or better still you are going to the underground speakeasy I told you about, where you can sit back and have fabulous cocktails and talk about the amazing church Gaudy built. Then you mosey down to the restaurant where you have dinner reservations for paella.
All before your cruise starts.
Once you get on you ship, you will start to see some true bucket list things - Rome and the ancient ruins, Greece and more ancient ruins, you know, what cruises do. Of course, this only works if you choose Greece or Rome.
The trick of the ship is you indulge in your personal butler and housekeeper TAKING CARE OF YOU. There are restaurants and cafes at your disposal...no cooking! No cleaning! Hallelujah!!
The best part? The itinerary is planned by me in advance, so you don't have to wake up every day and and say "OMG, what am I going to do today". IT IS HANDLED. The answer is read the (gorgeous) itinerary you have on your phone and off you go. NO THINKING REQUIRED on this trip....except what to have for dessert.
I take the choices away from you after you tell me what your choices are. Sounds crazy?
How do I work this “no work by you” magic?? EASY! We chat. I ask silly questions and a few important ones. We chat - if you haven't met me yet, I am an expert chatter. But you are going to tell me the important stuff of your wants and desires - where, when, and how do we get there and what do we do there.
Then, with a little travel agent ta-da, I simply present you with the BEST - I mean THE BEST - version of the choices you made during our chat.
You say you love it and I put it all together - the booking, the calling, the detail arranging - and you simply pack. I send you a list for that too!
From the moment you say "YES PLEASE" to the time you walk back in the house with a suitcase full of dirty laundry and memories, I have your back.
A few important things to know about how I work:
• I DO NOT plan the trips we took in college, no Motel 6 or fast food dinners. You have a job now, I plan trips for adults to places with real forks and knives - no sporks.
•You want to take the family. Great, I can work with that, but I work FOR you. Not Aunt Gertrude who decided to call me with a suggestion from something she did back when Reagan was in office.
• I don’t book experiences I wouldn’t take myself. I will guide you to reasonable tours/excursions designed to enhance your vacation, not exhaust and overwhelm you.
• I value quality of your experience - how this trip will make you feel based on what you have told me you want. I don't bring you back 5 formal nights when you told me this is a "no make-up no bra" kind of trip.
If you want a vacation where you can show up and enjoy it, trust the recommendations, and know someone has your back — I'm your girl.
If you want to enjoy the process of planning your voyage - Me, I make it enjoyable.
If you’re looking to price shop, DIY, or control every detail, I’m probably not the right travel advisor for you — and that’s okay.
I don't need to be everyone's favorite, just yours.

Here is where we start to dream the dream.
Oh La La
Unpack once and see so much! The ship is part of the vacation with fine dining and entertainment on board. Disembark and see some of the world's best cities.
There are so many ways to cruise the Mediterranean!
You tell me "I want to go go go all day and my ship should be my refuge to decompress" I've got a cruise for that.
OR
"Heather, I want to go go go all day and all night. I want to use every second of this trip" Guess what? I have a cruise for that.
Not all cruises are made equal, I find the one that fits your style.
Sun and Sand
Warm is where the heart is. Is your idea of a wonderful vacation the ability to go from a beach club to a zip line through a jungle all in one day?
Or do you dream of beautiful islands of white sand, blue water and a cabana boy with drinks?
When you tell me your wish for fun and sun, I can give you the dream ship to get you there.
A lot of the excursions on a Caribbean cruise can be enjoying some time with animals (monkey sanctuary comes to mind) or you can see Mayan ruins in a jungle or hiking and zip lining. But you are never far from a relaxing beach chair and a pina colada.
