About Me

I collaborate with individuals or groups to plan wonderful, seamless, and worry-free vacations. If you want to go, I have probably been there. I find the best options to match your travel dreams. Save time by leaving the research and logistics to me and you will be well-prepared with my travel tips. My associates and I have been expertly planning vacations for a combined 60 years.

As a lifelong adventure seeker, I am passionate about nature, wildlife, and scenic landscapes. Yet, my history-lover self is enthralled by the cities and cultures of the world.

My specialties include:

  • Expedition Cruising
  • River Cruising
  • Where the Wildlife Is!

I especially enjoy planning trips to the Polar regions including Antarctica, Greenland, Iceland, and Svalbard, plus Africa, Alaska, Australia, Costa Rica, Galapagos Islands, New Zealand, and Tahiti.

As much as travel brings us joy, conveys knowledge, enriches our lives, and opens our minds, it does result in a carbon footprint. Consequently, I incorporate sustainability. I donate to CarbonFund for every flight on your behalf. I also donate a portion of my commissions to the Nature Conservancy, WWF, Oceana, UNICEF, or Doctors Without Borders.
