About Me

Premium/Luxury Cruises & Exotic Tours Specialist

Hello Friends & Family!

Passion for travel to exotic & far away destinations was ignited in me long ago...I've since devoured the South Pacific 3 times over, leaving my heart behind, on several private Motus of French Polynesia...But, the hunger to travel continues...

We have been at this for almost 2 decades & over that time, we've had the opportunity to meet so many amazing & inspirational friends & families...many of those through your referrals! Thank You!

Looking back over the years at our adventures, whether we spent our days being taken to another snorkelers dream destination to explore gorgeous coral reef gardens & various colorful tropical fish under the sea...

or...

Touring through some magical rain-forest of French Polynesia as the ocean breeze swirls botanical aromas through rich foliage & gently swaying palms...

or... Staying in private villas nestled in palms, overlooking some of the most breathtaking Caribbean views on Earth...& sailing around them...

When we started cruising, we really discovered a whole new world. There is nothing better than waking up in a new destination each day where the next adventure awaits. By day's end, returning to our air-conditioned sanctuary of our newly dressed stateroom to be pampered once again!

When we are not travelling or working hard on your holidays we can be found singing, gardening and renovating our sanctuary!We are grateful to all of our awesomely loyal clients & the friendships we have built over the years!

    Society Islands by Paul Gauguin
    Kim, "We got into Papeete on time. The water ferry ride was a delightful 30 - 35 min ride to Moorea. Manava is about 10 km from the dock area. We enjoyed a fabulous buffet and Polynesian Show that night. It was first class and one of the best that any of us have been to. Thanks to you for being so gracious for doing - Kudos to you Kim. Our over the water bungalow was amazing. Lots of coral throughout the entire bungalow area with a glass floor to watch fish, especially at night. The room was nice sized and the view out onto the ocean and reef had great views. We did a circle island tour via our car and mostly relaxed by the pool. The Manava is an extraordinary resort to stay. PG cruise - rooms were spacious and as you know the balcony was very nice to have and enjoy. I can’t say enough about the crew on Paul Gauguin! You are an amazing travel agent and you really put yourself into everyone’s trip as if it was your own vacation you were taking."

    Egypt & The Nile - Kensington Tours
    "Thank you Kim. Yes today is our last day in what has been a very wonderful experience. Janie and I agreed last night it is the most significant and exciting trip we have ever taken. You and Scott are a big part of a successful trip. I don’t know how anyone could do this without people like you. Anyone who cannot take this trip is missing a lot. Jens

    Egypt & the Nile Cruise - Kensington Tours
    "Thank you Kim for organizing a delightful eleven day trip of Cairo and a Nile River cruise from Luxor to Aswan. Kensington Travel was always on time to pick us up even for the 2AM airport arrival. Our Kensington guides were very knowledgeable and their English was perfect. We feel as if we made two new friends with our guides Ashraf Naguib and Doran Mordechai. I would recommend this trip to anyone wanting to explore Egypt and the 5,000 year old temple ruins!"

    Paul Gauguin - Society Islands
    Kim, "Thanks for reaching out. We loved French Polynesia and the cruise was incredible. The staff on the ship were friendly and always took great care of us. I enjoyed my first ever scuba diving excursions and I'll look for future opportunities to go scuba diving again. We all loved the underwater walk on Bora Bora and the Intercontinental Hotel on Papeete was the perfect setting. Please keep Rhonda and I in mind for future African Safari opportunities and thanks for your help with getting our Tahiti trip planned and booked!" — Mark & Rhonda, F

    Danube Waltz - Viking Hermod
    Kim, "We returned back to D/FW last Thursday afternoon after a very enjoyable trip. The hotels in both Prague and Budapest were very nice and the suite accommodations on the Viking ship were roomy and comfortable. The cruise itself was well organized and I would recommend anyone to travel with Viking. The food was good at all times and the Silver Package made the drinking much better that it would have been otherwise so thank you for that. Margie and I very much appreciate all of your help in making this happen and I am sure that Claire and Al had a great time as well. I hope that we may be able to work together again in the future. All the best," Ben

    Danube Waltz - Viking Hermod
    Dear Kim, "It was a great trip. Viking took good care of us and everything went smoothly. The post-extensions were great and The New York Palace in Budapest was amazing. We loved Prague and Budapest two beautiful cities. The cruise ship was lovely and I am so glad that we had a suite! All in all it was a delightful experience and I thank you for all the hard work that you put into it. Have a blessed day, and I look forward to our next trip."

    Rhine Getaway - Viking Eir
    Hi Kim, "We had a great trip with both parts of it. The Viking Cruise was wonderful with exceptional service. The ship was spotless, very good food and drink and a great crew. The Band of Brothers tour was outstanding. Very full days seeing the sights of the landings and battles. The museums were terrific. Highly recommend it to your future clients . Thanks for checking in and will definitely keep you in mind for a future trip." Best regards, Bill
