Venice, Italy
My travel journey began while attending my son’s wedding on a cruise. It was my first one. And ever since, I've been planning travel for my family, friends and clients. What started out as a plan to keep busy after retirement bloomed into a passion for helping others travel. It's in my nature to help; while providing a memorable travel experience for others. Be it small boutique hotels, luxury resorts or cruise; my relationships with top industry suppliers allow me to provide a variety of experiences at competitive rates.
My expertise lies with all-inclusive resorts, cruises and groups. I've planned group trips to Italy, ground packages and cruises. My success as a travel agent; owning my own agency is a result of: Integrity, Professionalism, People Skills, Resourcefulness, Great Communication Skills and Empathizing with the needs of my clients. Last but not least, Attention to detail. Providing an honest assessment of destination desires is as important to me as it is important to my clients.
Being an active member of ASTA (American Society of Travel Advisors) and CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association); provides information to ensure travel advisers are kept aware of industry standards, and trends.

Dorothy helped us plan every detail for our family reunion to Cancun. She was very commutative and organized. She checked in with us everyday to make sure we knew everything that was going on and kept us updated on any last minute changes to our itinerary. I highly recommend her services.

Summer Vacation 2025
Reviewed By Darren - Inglewood, CA | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Working with Dorothy as my travel agent has been a wonderful experience. First off; she was very professional, kind, courteous and was able to answer all my questions throughout this process. She provided a wide list of resorts within my budget, she was able to give me first hand knowledge of all properties because she has visited the properties and can give you the pros and cons which was a big help. She provided payment options, transfer to and from the property which was A1, she was readily available when I called regarding my balance, any problems or issues during my vacation. She was able to switch my shared transfer to a private transfer going back to the airport. I recommend Dorothy for all your vacation needs.

Relax and Reset - Montego Bay, Jamaica
I called Miss Dottie a month before our trip, I know very last minute. We decided on a destination to Montego Bay, Jamaica. We gave her our budget and she did not disappoint with so many great options. We decided to go with Secrets Wild Orchid Resort upgrading to the Preferred Club, best decision ever! Miss Dottie made sure all of travel arrangements were in place, from our flights and hotel, all we had to do was enjoy and relax. My husband and I called this vacation R&R (Relax & Reset) and it was much needed for our marriage. Thank you Miss Dottie for your true dedication and helping our family make memories in 2022.

First Hawaiian Family Vacation
My Husband and I were planning a family trip to Hawaii to see our son. I tried planning it on my own but it seemed too much to handle. I highly recommend Dottie. She was so welcoming and her schedule was flexible with ours which was wonderful. She helpful with our questions, and gathered information and gave us some options on hotels, flights and transportation. She informed us of the hidden fees and what to expect in Hawaii. This was good, we had never been to Hawaii. We were able to make a deposit the same day we met with her. On the day of our trip, our flights were delayed due to Airline issues. Dottie was able to contact all parties to change some things since there was a delay in arriving in Hawaii. She was a true blessing because we would have not known who to contact. This was a little hiccup in our trip but Dottie was on it ASAP. Overall our trip to Hawaii was the best Vacation ever! You're the best Dottie! Angel and I are so thankful. Can't wait to book our next trip.
