My Background
I am happy to be part of the McCabe and Virtuoso families specializing in active, independent, honeymoon, and wellness travel. I believe that travel transforms you, and that these experiences are life's greatest investment. I have had a passion for travel research for years, keeping spreadsheets and writing blog posts about my travels, and after 10 years of corporate marketing and a MBA, I am making a career change to travel. I feel that I am combining skill and passion and fulfilling my career dream becoming a professional travel advisor.
I have traveled extensively inside the United States, including Hawaii, as well as around the Caribbean and Europe. I enjoy active travel, visiting both the attraction you must visit, as well as finding the attraction less visited, and capturing breathtaking and epic scenery through amazing photos. Travel is fun in all four seasons, each with its unique characteristics, and reasons to visit a new destination. I look forward to helping others find the joy in, and increase the value of, their travel experience!

Babymoon in Jamaica
By: EmilieS
Reviewed on: 14 Apr 2016
Jen did a wonderful job planning our trip to Jamaica in January 2016. It was overwhelming trying to find a destination in the Caribbean that fit our budget, date constraints and offered the activities we were looking for. Jen found us the perfect location and took all our stress away. The last thing you want is stress while trying to plan a stress-free vacation! The hotel was wonderful. We were touched to learn that Jen had called ahead of our arrival and got us a free room upgrade and surprise treat! We were honoured to be her first clients and recommend her to all our friends! We can't wait to ask her to plan our next trips. Emilie

Loved the trip to Bermuda! Jen took all the headache out of booking and planning. She was incredibly responsive and even put together a list of suggestions and places that were relevant to us. My wife and I had an incredible trip. Made possible through the assistance of Jennifer Waigand. We will use her expertise again...Hopefully sooner than later for our next adventure. Thank you!

Jen was absolutely wonderful and made the process of planning our perfect trip completely painless. She took care of everything from hotel reservations, car rentals to the excursions and local restaurants we should eat at. She was extremely easy to work with and get in contact with. She did everything we asked and had great recommendations based on her experiences. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect 1st anniversary/baby moon trip! Looking forward to planning our next trip with her already!

Nothing left to chance with Jennifer!
By: RetiredMom
Reviewed on: 03 Aug 2016
We recently spent a week in Ireland on a self-guided driving tour, and we could not have made this trip without the help of Jennifer. We have been to Europe many times, but this trip required us to travel around the country on our own for seven days, changing hotels five times! The logistics of coordinating such a trip overwhelmed us, so this is where Jen took over. She worked with a company that specializes in this kind of trip, and helped us to work out every one of the million details and decisions we had to make. Jennifer researched and recommended hotels, restaurants, and attractions along our route, and she made our airline reservations, airport transfers, and car rental arrangements. As a result of her advice, hard work, and careful planning, all of our questions were answered and arrangements were in order before we left home, so our week in Ireland was a well orchestrated pleasure! Jen was very helpful and professional, and we already have her planning our 2017 vacation

Jennifer was a pleasure to work with. She provided useful advice and recommendations, prompt responses, and was very friendly and accommodating. We asked for a last minute booking over the winter holidays and the trip she put together did not disappoint.

She even came over with an adorable and much appreciated gift at the end of our vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about the level of service provided by Jennifer. 5 stars!!

Let Jen Do The Work
By: Bob & Karan
Reviewed on: 23 Sep 2016
We were looking for a European vacation where we didn't have to do all the planning, drive in crazy traffic, or haul our luggage around. I did some research on guided tours, but many tour companies provide vague descriptions of what their tour actually included. Jen helped us with our decision by doing her own research to answer our questions and find some tours that would best match our requirements. After a few online and phone discussions, we were able to better define what we were looking for, and with Jen's help, were able to finally make a selection. The tour turned out even better than expected. Jen hooked us up with a tour group that used first class hotels, handled all the luggage, and provided an experienced tour director, as well as very knowledgeable local guides. The group had immediate access to all the sites, no lines. Jen made our long awaited European vacation one that we will always remember. Jen is at the top of our phone list for our next trip !

There are not enough positive things I can say about Jen! She advised my husband and me as we sought to add a little something extra to our planned trip to Denmark. She provided an array of tour options - as well as her own ideas and research for sights to see and things to consider. We selected the Viator "Grand Day Tour of Copenhagen" in early October. It was such a treat to see some of the sights beyond the city: Roskilde, the Viking Ship Museum, Frederiksborg Castle and Kronberg Castle. It was a lovely day of sightseeing and experiencing the beautiful Danish countryside. We also enjoyed a fabulous lunch at Café Valentin in Hillerød during a break between stops. HIGHLY recommend this tour for something off the beaten path, and for a chance to see some impressive sights outside the city of Copenhagen. And we wouldn't have gotten to experience it without Jen's guidance and expertise. Thanks, Jen!

Amazing Maui Trip from Jen!
By: Brad32
Reviewed on: 03 Nov 2016
We just got back from a relaxing week in Maui for an anniversary/babymoon. Our travel agent Jen made the entire process of planning the trip stress free and easy. She ended up getting us a fantastic room at the Hyatt Regency and was able to upgrade our car to a Mustang convertible and get breakfast included for the week. The room was a Partial Ocean View, but turned out to be nearly a full view of the ocean and some of the mountain. When we arrived at our room, we were surprised with some treats from Jen to help us kick off the vacation. The Hyatt resort had everything that we wanted and was a short scenic walk to a cool town called Whaler’s Village. Before we left, Jen helped us to find exciting day trips that we could do on the island and we were glad that we took her advice. We did everything from scenic hiking trails on the Road to Hana to snorkeling with sea turtles in Molokini Crater. The trip was perfect and I would definitely recommend using Jen for making travel arrangement.

Wow. Jennifer just helped us take an incredible trip to Spain as a birthday/anniversary add-on trip to a work trip. I wasn't convinced we needed help planning in the beginning because I studied abroad in Spain and we're confident travelers who can use Trip Advisor and Yelp with the best of them. I just wasn't sure what using Jennifer would do, really, but the allure of saving time was enough to get us started. I'm so glad that we did! Jennifer did way more than save us time-she found unique, fun things to do and incredible places to stay that I wouldn't have found among all the options. Instead, we got a whole list of non-touristy things to do around Spain, a carefully planned itinerary that made everything from picking up a rental car to checking in at hotels in five cities easy, and even a bottle of cava waiting for us on my birthday at our gorgeous (but somehow not super expensive-how does she do that?!) hotel. We will absolutely use Jennifer's services again for our next adventure!

Jennifer Waigand is a wonderful and knowledgeable travel services professional. She did a perfect job of planning and booking all aspects of our trip to Hawaii (Big Island), providing awesome recommendations and making our travel preparation so easy. I highly recommend Jennifer. And I plan on working with her again to plan future travel. Jennifer is passionate about travel and experiencing new places. This really came through when she helped us plan our vacation to Hawaii. She had been to most of the Hawaiian islands and was able to share her own favorites with us. She provided great recommendations on restaurants and activities, many of which we took. She is a professional. Superb attention to detail throughout the planning and booking process. She is a great communicator. I felt like she really researched the best deals for us.

We had already booked our flights/hotels but towards the end of wedding planning, we were tapped out. ENTER JEN!!! Referred by a friend, Jen was a GODSEND!! After a brief initial conversation with us, she was able to plan THE. PERFECT. HONEYMOON! She's GREAT about communicating, super responsive and willing to work within your budget! She provided the prefect balance of planned activities & free time to wander. It was so nice to have someone handle all of the planning and researching for us.

Jen recently planned a trip to Germany for my boyfriend and myself. Due to scheduling conflicts, our availability changed multiple times and Jen stayed flexible in the planning! We went to visit the Christmas Markets in several cities including Munich, Frankfurt, Cologne, and Dortmund. Jen was fabulous in figuring out what was most important to us for this trip. She gave options in every city we wanted to visit, and she was right on the money with her recommendations!

First time out of the country!
By: Mel and James
Reviewed on: 21 Feb 2017
Jennifer was great to work with. This was our first time traveling out of the country which we thought would be very stressful. Jennifer made it just the opposite! She helped us every step of the way. We were so impressed when we gave her our 'wish list' along with our budget and we received an organized Excel sheet with all of our options that had met EVERYTHING on our list! We didn't think it was possible for 2 people to go to an all-inclusive resort for 7 nights in our budget after doing our own online research. Not only did Jennifer find us options that met our entire list in one country— but two! She broke each down with a few resorts & flights for a variety of dates that fit into our wish list. We ended up choosing the Grand Palladium Resort & Spa in Jamaica. She even made a list of excursions to check out when we arrived. She was spot on with everything!! I highly recommend Jennifer after our experience. Her dedication & research shows how much she cares about her clients.

Working with Jennifer was easy, and she quickly got a feel for what we were trying to experience in our dream vacation. She not only exchanged emails with us, we met several times over lunch to make sure she understood our needs. The list of choices she came up with were all awesome, and the one we chose, Coco Bay in Antigua, was absolutely perfect!
Now the best part: we had a problem with the bus to the airport, and missed our initial flight. I called Jen at 5am and she was ready to help us! She found a way to get us to our dream vacation! She was OUT OF THIS WORLD great, working with us through the difficult re-booking and we did not lose our Coco bay stay. If you want a PROFESSIONAL agent who is with you before, during and after your vacation, choose Jen. She is simply the best!

Jennifer was the best! My wife and I went to Hawaii for our honeymoon and neither of us had ever been there nor knew where to start planning. I wanted to explore and she wanted to relax. Jennifer planned a perfect schedule of both! On top of that, I had planned on going cheap for hotels and car rentals to save money. Jennifer was able to book us a Mustang Convertible on both islands we visited at an incredible rate AND BEAUTIFUL hotels! Our hotel on Oahu was walking distance to Waikiki Beach and in Kona our hotel was a dream come true. At incredible rates. Our room looked right at the ocean. Jenn provided us an Google Doc excel spreadsheet with tons of great food and exploration options. We had a solid plan and enough time to be spontaneous with her suggestions. Finally she was great to chat with and work with. Very personable and went out of her way to make things right and ensure our trip went off without a hitch. I highly recommend Jennifer!

A+ Service - St. Lucia Honeymoon
By: Mike S.
Reviewed on: 07 Aug 2017
We initially used a “big” travel agency to plan our honeymoon but it was impersonal and seemed like they were just “going through the motions” – then we discovered Jen. A world of difference!! She got to know us as a couple and what we were looking for. Shortly after, Jen sent us a spreadsheet with islands, resorts, and pros/cons based on her own experiences and past customer recommendations. Through continuous conversations, she narrowed it down further by resort, food specifics, flight choices, and activities. She was quick to reply to any questions or concerns. The day before our trip there was a hiccup at the airline– I sent her a 6 am message and within the hour she was on the phone with them to resolve it. Jen was so responsive, professional, and thorough throughout the whole process and we couldn’t have been happier. She made sure our stay had personal touches from her as well – completely unexpected! Don’t hesitate to use Jen for any travel needs – we def will again!

Jen was an amazing travel agent! I have known Jen for a long time, before she was an agent, when she planned great winter trips for our group of friends, which is why I knew she’d nail my wife and I’s Honeymoon. The pre-trip planning and communication was top notch, from phone calls and emails, to super detailed google docs. She was very receptive to our requests to have a longer layover in Dubai, and made sure we hit all the high spots in South Africa. Even when we had a small hiccup with a hotel in Capetown, she went out of her way to help get us moved to a different hotel. The intercontinental and domestic flights worked out great, as well as the travel to/from airports/destinations/cities was flawless.

Jennifer made booking our trip so easy. We had an idea of what we wanted to start. She quickly validated it for us and coordinated our arrangements for the last room available during the dates we could travel. She provided all our documents in a centralized location (even the flight info we booked on our own) which allowed for less searching through my email. So nice! We look forward to working with her on our next adventure!

Fantastic Babymoon!

My husband and I worked with Jen to plan our babymoon. We had an amazing trip to Amelia Island, FL and a beautiful stay at the Ritz Carlton. Through Jen, we received early check in, late check out, breakfast at the resort each morning and even a credit to use at the Spa!! The trip was exactly what we needed to rest and relax before welcoming baby #2 and Jen made the entire experience easy and enjoyable.

Jennifer Waigand helped my wife and I plan a babymoon to Hawaii. It involved three different destinations. She was knowledgeable. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she was extremely responsive and helpful from start to finish. We would recommend her unconditionally!

I really enjoyed working with Jennifer to plan our Patagonia and Chilean Lake District adventure. She was responsive and patient with all my questions, and I would definitely consult her again. I really like her detail- oriented style and we had some great chats and laughs as well along the way.

Thank goodness for Jen! I was so stressed trying to plan an adventure in Arizona for my family. I didn’t even know where to start. I heard about Jen through family and reached out. She had a plan and itinerary ideas set for us faster then I could have imaged! We had an amazing trip and will be booking through Jen again for the next adventure!

Jen found us another great spot to stay, this time with two kids under 2.5 years old near Disney. We stayed at the Wyndham bonnet creek resort which was super kid friendly and near all the Disney parks. It was just what we were looking for. She always pulls through and is highly recommended!

I found Jennifer's name from searching my neighborhood Facebook page and am glad I did! She was so sweet and easy to work with! My original travel plans had to be switched up a bit and Jennifer was very accommodating. She was able to provide us with several options and work with our budget. She was also very honest with her feedback when referring a wide range or resorts by sharing the perks as well as the things she wasn't crazy about. We ended up booking our trip pretty close to our departure date and Jennifer was able to help with insurance, rooms, transportation and answer any questions we had. When we arrived at the resort where we originally booked the cheapest, basic room but we were told that we had been upgraded to a swim up room free of charge when we checked in! We had an amazing time and are grateful to be paired up with Jennifer.
I would absolutely recommend working with Jennifer to anyone! I look forward to working with her again in the future!

Jennifer was incredibly helpful in helping us book our honeymoon to Bora Bora. She planned every detail including shuttles to and from airports and chose accommodating times that were realistic. We spoke to another couple that used a travel agent from a different company and they only had a 30 minute layover once arriving in the United States and had to go through customs and ended up (of course) not making their flight home! Jennifer followed up on any questions I had and even sent me information and travel tips on our destination. This was our first time using a travel agent and it was a great experience with Jenn! Highly recommend :)
