Agency Owner & World Traveler
I have owned Travel Leaders Galaxy Travel since 1999 and it has been a whirlwind of fun!
Giving back to the community is very important to me. I've been an active member of the Rotary in Farmington, Minnesota since 2002 and served as president twice. I'm also involved with the Apple Valley and Dakota County Chambers of Commerce.
I love my job and every day I look forward to what the years ahead will bring.

Smooth Sailing!
Reviewed By amh1769 - Victoria, MN | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
My family and I had the pleasure of working with Sara for our Disney Cruise. I had done some initial research and quickly was inundated with information and options. Sara took a very overwhelming task and simplified it for me which was so fantastic and saved me hours of research and second guessing myself. She took the time to ask questions about my family to find out what was most important to us for our cruise and came back with exactly what we were looking for!
She goes the extra mile with her customers and is with you from the time you book until long after you trip is done following up to ensure you had a wonderful time.
She knows Disney so well and her passion for the brand/product is evident and gave me the confidence to know we would have a fabulous time. We truly enjoyed our 4-night cruise aboard the Disney Dream and have so many "magical" moments that will last a lifetime! Thank you Sara - you are the best -can't wait to book our next adventure with you!

We love working with Sara!
Reviewed By Anne - Farmington, MN | Traveled to Ireland ~ Europe
I have taken three trips through Sara, including a multi-generation group trip to Ireland, and she has provided fabulous service and recommendations in each instance. She is sensitive to and knowledgeable about all aspects of planning a trip - from budget and convenience to details regarding accommodations.

Dream location!
Reviewed By JLP - Prior Lake, MN | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
When we first contacted Sarah about helping us plan our spring break trip, we really didn't know where we wanted to go, we just knew we wanted warmth, sunshine and the beach. Sarah provided us with many options, different locations and different budgets. Once we made our decision, Sarah walked us through the process and helped guide us up until our departure day. We can't wait for Sarah to plan our next trip! We already know the location, can't wait to see what she suggests for accommodations (if it is anything like we just experienced, I know we won't be disappointed)!
