My Background
I am a family and adventure travel specialist with over 20 years experience in the industry.
I provide personalized travel planning services for all ages and interests. Though I have become known in the industry as a family travel expert, my clients include honeymooners, retirees, business travelers, solo travelers, and groups. Whether it’s a simple hotel stay to a multi-country adventure, I use my personal experience, knowledge of the industry, and extensive contacts around the world to create exceptional experiences at the best value for my clients.
I am also a Virtuoso certified Wanderlist Specialist, who can design a long term travel plan to help clients meet their travel dreams. I have traveled with my own children since they were infants, and am now approaching the empty nest phase. So I understand the challenges of planning travel for all stages of life, and the excitement of having a bucket list mapped out for the future.
As your Advisor, I do everything I can to find the best value, keep you informed, be your advocate, and make travel planning hassle-free. My goal is to craft an incredible experience for your family that makes memories you will cherish forever.

Suzetter Is Great!
By: MsGreene
Reviewed on: 11 Oct 2013
I wanted to plan our trip, but needed an expert to tell me if I was on the right track. I also needed help booking a few "hard to find" items like specialty tours and sold-out events.
Suzzette was great at answering my (myriad) questions and steered me in the right direction every time. She also had contacts on the ground and helped me book some wonderfully unique experiences.
Bottom line: I will work with Suzzette again in planning future trips.

Best travel agent we've ever worked with!
By: calihannah
Reviewed on: 16 Dec 2013
Suzette really knows how to make family travel special. She goes above and beyond to make sure kids' needs are taken into account when planning trips, including sourcing fabulous activities that are truly appropriate for our whole family. She works with top notch service providers, comes up with new ideas that we may not have considered on our own and is always prepared (and makes sure we are too). I recommend Suzanne to all of my friends who are looking for wonderful family travel experiences.

Awesome South Africa !!!
By: JDS_PMB
Reviewed on: 05 Mar 2014
A last minute work trip to South Africa gave us the opportunity to do a Safari and tour Cape Town. We had no time to plan and we were apprehensive to setup a trip to Africa. Suzette setup all the transportation and put us in a 5 Star/Big 5 safari lodge then gave us a potpourri of touring and dining options in Cape Town. We had assigned staff available to help at the airports and available by phone the entire trip. We were safe, coordinated and well taken care of the whole time. We enjoyed ourselves and want to thank the first class job done by Suzette and Virtuoso.

When making arrangements for our Thanksgiving week in Chicago, Suzette provided comprehensive information on several Virtuoso hotels we could choose from, including reviews from other Virtuoso agents who had recently stayed in the hotels. As I would be traveling with my 2 children, she also included personal suggestions for activities we would enjoy including in our itinerary.

Suzette helped us plan our first Disney cruise out of Miami. She was easy to work with and very responsive! I was planning for both my family and my parents. She found what we considered great deals and was able to get my parents right across the hall from our cabin.

Being a procrastinator, I waited until the last day to book an Early Bird Family Ski package at the Four Seasons Whistler. Due to the time difference (I'm in Hawaii), I decided to book the reservation on my own...not a good idea. Luckily, Suzette was able to help me fix my booking and work out the details to include the Virtuoso partner benefits on top of the already great early bird package perks. Thank you for another great vacation!

Incredible staff, service, location
By: Dee

Windstar Cruises surpassed our expectations! The ship was a large yacht with an expert crew who became our extended family for the week. No on board entertainment but there were plenty of choices to keep you happy. Tahiti, was incredible! We mainly did prearranged excursions I found on Trip advisor-which were cheaper and very personal. On Tahiti-toured the island with Unique Tahiti(Tracey was amazing), Hiked in Moorea with Tahiti Evasion (Michel was Great),. In Tahaa the ship rented a motu for volleyball, water sports, BBQ. In Raiatea we used Excursion Bleue(Bruno was great, snorkeled with sharks, stingrays, coral garden, home cooked tahitian meal, pearl farm, vanilla farm). Bora Bora safari 4x4 found at the dock, great snorkeling with Fabian of Reef Discovery and SCUBA discovery with the boat was wonderful. Final day at Huahine did Huahine Natique wave runners around the island, stopped for snorkeling, a drink-private and worth every penny. Amazing trip!

Suzette saved the day once again. She kept her cool when she found out we needed to cancel a long scheduled cruise due to a medical problem my husband suffered just a few weeks before our trip. Suzette helped us with canceling all of our land reservations, as well as the cruise, too. She sent us the travel insurance claim forms and provided information for the questions we were unable to answer. We are so bummed that we had to cancel our trip, but thankful we have an ally in Suzette to make the claims process easier. Thank you.

Fantastic Vacation Experience
By: Bill
Reviewed on: 15 Apr 2016
We've used Suzette's services multiple times with consistent great experiences. For the most recent vacation in April 2016, our family did not have a specific destination planned. After consulting with Suzette and agreeing to realistic budget expectations, she found what appeared to be a great compromise for our family; an upscale all inclusive resort with separate rooms for parents and kids. Unlike previous trips, we booked this vacation months ahead time. There were many stressful events affecting our family leading up to this vacation. Suzette's planning and attention to details really paid off us. We were picked up at the airport and brought directly the resort. The resort was absolutely perfect for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation. No issues, no stress, wonderful experience. Suzette added value to our vacation by working behind the scenes on our behalf by guiding us and making the appropriate bookings and arrangements so we could simply enjoy ourselves with no stress.

My husband and I had a last minute opportunity to take a vacation - with little time to plan. I was given Suzette's name from a family friend - and WOW - she was impressive.

She paid attention to all the details, offered to set-up transportation as well as day trips while in Hawaii. Even though we were under pressure and had little time to book our trip, Suzette made it all so easy! We stayed at a beautiful property (Halekulani - Hotel, Oahu) and had a great time. Thank you, Suzette for your outstanding service. I will most certainly call you again (but hopefully, not last minute).

Flight-seeing from Talkeetna guaranteed a glacier landing with direct views of Denali, while staying on the north face in a wilderness lodge allowed us to experience Denali from a different point-of-view with hiking on tundra, viewing animals in their native habitats, learning about the gold rush and sled dogs. Her recommendation that we travel independently with a rental car from Anchorage to Fairbanks gave us the opportunity to travel at our own pace and explore some off-beat sites.
Suzette is flexible, patient, timely, and reliable. Hope to work with her again to plan another amazing vacation.

Great Travel Advisor
By: dbl
Reviewed on: 09 Jul 2018
We have worked with Suzette on several trips. She understands us as travelers and does an excellent job planning a trip that exceeds our family's expectations. She does a great job balancing down time with adventure time. She clearly understands what it is like to travel with children and ensures we have fun activities that we all love. She makes sure we have hotel rooms with enough space (or two adjoining rooms), our activities are appropriate for all ages, and our arrangements are seemless. Most importantly, Suzette has delivered phenomenal vacations! She is easy to work and I strongly recommend her to others.

Fantastic Bora Bora
By: TC

We weren't sure what to do for our 25th wedding anniversary other than Hawaii. We had done some research on Bora Bora but were struggling with comparable options. Suzette pulled together all kinds of options around the globe in different price ranges. She provided detail on the locations, tips and peer reviews. It helped us narrow down to FS Bora Bora. She planned the trip and flights. The vacation was outstanding and we'll continue to reach out to Suzette for future trips. Thanks Suzette!

Suzette was a pleasure to work with! My mother had a wonderful 70th birthday, the Four Seasons Maui was beautiful. Suzette was very professional and responded very quickly to any questions. Some of the perks that came with booking through her were an added bonus and the hotel was actually able to upgrade our room at check in for nearly nothing. Thank you Suzette!

African Adventure

Reviewed on: 03 Jun 2019
This is the second time I am posting a review for a vacation Suzette has helped me plan and just like the first one everything was fantastic. My wife and I and another couple worked with Suzette to plan a three week African holiday. The end result was the trip of a lifetime!
Working with Suzette is very easy and she provides great information and advice throughout the process. We spent time in Victoria Falls, Cape Town, Franschhoek, Sabi Sands and Benguerra Island. Planning a trip like this takes a lot of time and care to be sure everything is just right. Whenever we had questions, they were answered quickly and with good information.
Every property was better than the one we just left and all the transfers in between were seamless. The true measure of the service being provided is referring that service to someone else. I've referred friends to Suzette multiple times and will continue to do so.
Thank you Suzette for all you did to make this trip absolutely unforgettable.

We had a phenomenal family trip to Yellowstone and the Titons! Suzette organized a wide variety of fun activities - from animal viewing to learning about geothermal features to kayaking to rock climbing to a rodeo - it was educational and fun filled. Our guides were top notch - they were great for kids and adults. And the trip plan itself was great. We were able to see a lot, but also have days to take our time and explore on our own. The accomodations were wonderful. We highly recommend Suzette - and can't wait for our next trip she plans!!

Suzette is wonderful to work with! Amazingly, we have had issues to deal with on several trips. One had to be cancelled, one had airline changes mid-trip, and now a scheduled trip later this year is up in the air. Suzette is always available to use her expertise to take care of details and guide us through any challenges that arise.
Suzette has also planned amazing trips and add ons to tours. A highlight was three days in Barcelona in a lovely boutique hotel with our own private tour guides. I can't recommend Suzette more highly and can't wait to start traveling again.
