How did you get into the travel industry is a question I am asked frequently. Who would have thought my answer would be that it all started after my honeymoon to Sandals Royal Caribbean Resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica.


 My travel bug was fueled when my husband was offered an expat position in Italy. We packed up and moved across the pond to Modena, Italy (home of balsamic vinegar) with our children, who were 5 and 7 years old. While living in Italy we were immersed in Italian culture and traveled the country.


 I also became an expert on countries like Italy, France, Germany, United Kingdom, Greece and Spain.  We became very smart tourists in big cities and then smaller cities and neighboring countries .…Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Turkey and Palma de Mallorca.  The ongoing family joke was how many stamps can we get in the passports and what’s our latest airline status.  This is what propelled my desire to become a travel agent 15 years ago. I wanted to show people how to travel like a pro.


I am well traveled and have been to most of the destinations that I book, however, there are new destinations that come up frequently and I love to learn about a new place. Some of my favorite European countries are Italy, Greece, UK, Ireland, Slovenia and Hungary.


 Whether you are looking for a boutique experience, guided or independent travel some of my favorite companies are Boutique Escapes, Delta Vacations, Abercrombie and Kent, Adventures by Disney, See Italy Travel, CTC Adventures, Universal Vacations (Orlando), Kensington Tours and Tauck.  


Ocean cruise on Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Lines, Disney Cruises, Virgin Voyages, Celebrity and Princess.


Looking for a river cruise I like AmaWaterways, Avalon and Viking. I take my time planning and treat your vacation like I am planning my own while taking into account your individual needs. Your vacation should be exactly that, yours, not like anyone else’s.


 My expertise is European travel, honeymoons, private yacht charters and river cruises. I use very reputable companies like Ocean Getaways, The Moorings, Sandals and Beaches Resorts, See Italy Travel, CTC Adventures, Travelive and more with highly rated reviews. Having said that I also do Caribbean vacations and cruises along with many other types of vacations and destinations.


I am a Certified Travel Consultant. To attain this rating I had to complete a formal training course and pass a professional examination.  I must also take continuing education credits every year to maintain this accreditation. This keeps me up to date with the newest information so I can confidently book your vacation in this ever changing travel industry.


 My service to you does not end when travel is booked.  I am available to you before, during and after travel to assist you with any questions or concerns.  I love hearing from my travelers after they return. It allows me to gain from their experiences and fine tune both their next trip and apply any necessary lessons learned to my other clients. I am very excited to start helping you plan your next adventure!

My Travel Stories

Quaint Ljubljana

One place I always wanted to visit was Ljubljana, Slovenia as this was where my grandmother was from. I must say I was pleasantly surprised with this destination.

Ljubljana is a small quaint European city and truly is a hidden gem. The city itself is never busy but also never boring.

Made my college graduation trip easy and simple
I must say Jacqueline was a joy to work with. I wanted to reward my grown children with a nice vacation to Jamaica for graduating from college. I reached out to several agents on Thumbtack and Jacqueline was the only one to respond in a timely fashion. She was very polite from the first call to the last. She listened to what I wanted and began working expeditiously on putting a package together. Once I settled on a package she made herself available for questions no matter the day or hour. She kept me informed of flight changes and reductions of cost. I can't express enough of how pleased I was with her expertise and professionalism. This was the best vacation we have ever taken. The smiles on my children's face was priceless. We stayed at RIU Montego Bay and it was beautiful. For a stress-free vacation I strongly suggest allowing Jacqueline to handle all your travel needs. Thanks Jacqueline you are awesome and a gem to work with.
