Linda M Raymer
During my 35 year career in the travel industry, I have explored extensively all 50 states and all 7 continents. An avid cruiser, I have sailed on luxury river and ocean ships of all sizes all over the world. I grew up traveling throughout the United States, living in states from Alaska to Alabama; Minnesota to New Mexico, and several others in between! My expertise includes designing custom itineraries for individuals, families and groups, and serving as a meeting planner for corporations and associations.
Travel was always a passion and hobby. However, my introduction to travel as a career began when my husband and I created and produced the International Church Music Festival in Europe for 26 years in England, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. The event annnually involved ten or more choirs from all over the USA, world class conductors, professional orchestras and musicians from more than a dozen countries from across the globe.
I owned WorldClass Travel, American Express for 10 years which became a part of Travelink, American Express in 2000. During the next twenty years, I developed our luxury service platform, Privileged Journeys, served on several industry advisory boards and as President of Travelink's Vacation Division untill my planned retirement in 2020.
Not surpisingly my retirement didn't last as friends began to reach out for help planning milestone travel celebrations. So in 2021, I entered a new phase of my travel career officially becoming an independent advisor for luxury travel. My years of pesonal travel and contacts around the globe allow me to curate custom experiences for travelers who desire fully detailed journeys with door to door white glove treatment.
