Start Planning My Trip
Let’s Get Started Planning a trip doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. This is a guided, thoughtful process designed to save you time, reduce stress, and help you feel confident in every decision. I specialize in cruise-focused travel planning for women, families, and groups — with an emphasis on trips I confidently plan and understand.
How It Works
A Simple, Thoughtful Process
Step 1 — Tell Me Your Travel Goals
Share what you’re thinking about, even if it’s not fully formed yet. Dates, interests, who’s traveling — we’ll start there.
Step 2 — I Handle the Details
I guide ship selection, itineraries, cabins, and logistics so everything fits your travel style and priorities.
Step 3 — You Enjoy the Journey
Relax knowing your trip has been thoughtfully planned and supported from start to finish.
What I Help With
A Simple, Thoughtful Process
Cruise Planning Focus
I most often help clients with:
- Alaska cruises
- Caribbean & Mexico cruises
- Group cruises (friends, celebrations, shared experiences)
- Multigenerational cruise travel
European ocean and river cruises (offered) - Select all-inclusive resorts when appropriate
If you’re unsure where to start, that’s completely fine — clarity comes through the planning process.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge a planning fee?
Planning fees vary based on the complexity of the trip. This allows me to provide dedicated time, personalized guidance, and thoughtful planning throughout the process.
When should I reach out to start planning?
Earlier is always better, especially for Alaska and European cruises. Many clients reach out 6–9 months in advance, though some trips can be planned sooner depending on availability.
Do you work with first-time cruisers?
Yes. I regularly help first-time cruisers feel confident choosing the right ship, cabin, itinerary, and onboard experience.
Can you help with flights, hotels, and transfers?
Yes. Flights, transfers, and pre- or post-cruise hotel stays can be included as part of your planning.
What if I don’t know where I want to go yet?
That’s a great place to start. You don’t need all the answers — just a general idea of what you’re hoping for. I’ll help narrow down the best options.
How does payment work?
A payment authorization form is completed before each payment is submitted to the cruise line or supplier. I’ll guide you through the payment schedule and confirm what’s due at each stage so everything stays clear and organized.
