About Me

Luxury Travel and Bespoke Experiences

I love travel. Years before the world wide web, I scoured travel brochures and destination books preparing for family vacations.  My passion for travel grew with each memory-making vacation experience.  I couldn't wait to explore a new destination or enjoy fun activities and excursions with my family.  I was also the reliable friend assigned to fact-finding and organizing travel for groups of friends to Mexico.  Transitioning to travel planning as a career was an easy changeover for me.  I continue to dive into current resources now at hand for pairing perfect vacations with client expectations.  Mexico, the Caribbean, Europe, China and Costa Rica are a few of the destinations I have booked for clients. 

Today, my goal is to help you realize your vacation dreams.  I enjoy forming and fostering relationships with clients looking for memory-making travel experiences.  

You work hard to earn your vacation time.  Avoid the stress of planning and perfecting your trip, let me do it for you.  After a conversation to gather personal information and assess your preferences, we will explore vacation options that fit you wish list.  Several companies cater to specific destinations and of those, each offer different experiences. By employing my travel experiences and expertise, you are guided to the perfect vacation options to fit your goals.  You can rest easy on vacation too . . .  I am available should you need assistance during your trip.  

Pack your bags!  It's that easy.

Hidden Beach, Bay of Banderas, Puerto Vallarta Mex

We were looking for something out of the ordinary for our 20th anniversary.  Lori came up with 3 destinations that matched our criteria. She gave us a ton of information on each destination to help us choose. We chose a condo (that’s right she found us a condo) and the excursions we wanted to do. She booked absolutely everything for us - even researched best days to do each excursion so they were not over crowded. Lori is more like a personal concierge! We definitely recommend her to anyone that wants to travel to new exciting destinations! We were so pleased with our summer vacation we just had her book our winter vacation as well. We highly recommended Lori to all of our family and friends!  Mike W

Wonderful Bachelorette Getaway!
Reviewed By Hala - St. Louis, MO | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
I’ll start by saying I’m well traveled and usually book all travel myself, but decided to use a travel agent as I was planning a bachelorette getaway for eight people. Lori came highly recommended and she definitely delivered!
She gave us options with different price points, and catered to everything we decided once we booked. Her personal relationships plus experience knowing the industry and property we went to was definitely a huge benefit for our group!
Everything went so smoothly and we had such a great time. Highly recommend for any of your travel needs!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Easy Travel Planning with an Experienced Agent
Reviewed By Sarah Caravia - St. Louis, MO | Traveled to Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
In our 20+ years of domestic and international travel, Lori is THE BEST agent we have ever partnered with for our travel needs. She listens to our preferences and advocates on our behalf to ensure our requests are fulfilled with the best pricing possible. She takes the worry (and complexity) out of travel planning and no detail is overlooked. Reach out to Lori today to plan your next travel adventure (big or small) - you will be glad you did!

Best time ever!
Reviewed By Mariam - Los Angeles, California | Traveled to Philippines ~ East and Southeast Asia
Lori was an amazing travel agent to work with. She went above and beyond to ensure our travels were seamless and in line with our goals for the vacation. This was by far the least stressed out I have been about planning a long vacation. Our tour guides were so friendly and also flexible if we wanted to veer off the plan a little. She was even able to keep a surprise that my parter was working on a secret the whole time we were planning. I highly recommend Lori when booking anything from a weekend trip, to a long extended vacation. She meets with you ahead of time and is able to work with your individual budget and goals for your vacation. Overall excellent experience! Thanks Lori!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
