Trips you can hop right onto
Not everybody wants to build a trip from scratch. Sometimes the best move is to grab a spot on something already taking shape and let the planning be somebody else's job. Throughout the year I host group departures — real trips, real dates, real people coming along. You get the group rate, the perks I've negotiated, and a familiar face handling the details. Reach out and I'll tell you what's currently on the calendar.
What I Plan Here
I put together group cruises by river and by ocean, the kind where a block of us travel together and the shore time, the seating, and the cabins are all arranged ahead. Group sailings tend to fill early, so if a cruise with a built-in crowd appeals to you, ask me what's coming up.
Some of my hosted departures are built around a theme — wine country, a special interest, a reason to bring people together beyond just the destination. Ask what's on the schedule and I'll tell you what fits, who it's for, and what's included.
Because I block space as a group, you ride along on rates and amenities that aren't on the public booking page. Same trip, better deal, and somebody in your corner if anything comes up between now and departure day.
Once you've picked a departure, getting your name on the list takes a couple of minutes, not a week of back-and-forth. Questions before you commit? Call or message me and I'll walk you through exactly what's included and what's not.
Why Not Just Book Online
You're probably wondering whether an advisor actually saves you anything. Fair question. The honest comparison, every moment of the trip: you with a booking site, versus you with me in your corner. The cheap booking is the expensive one when the trip goes sideways.
One thing I'll always be up front about: there may be a planning fee for my time and expertise. The commission is already in the cost of the resort or cruise price, whether you use me or not. The cruise line or resort just keeps my portion if you book directly, and they give you no extra guidance or help. I work for you, not the cruise line or the resort. I will always have your best interests in mind, and everything is customized specifically to you. Have questions, need more information, have concerns? I'm here to help with all of it! Many of the upgrades and money I help you save, more than covers my planning fee too, and you get my expertise and help every step of the way. Booking online, you get the same base price, none of the perks, and no one in your corner when something breaks.

One call. I already know the resort, the ship, the right month, the right room class. I send 1–2 vetted options.
