Alaskan & Caribbean Cruise Expert, Honeymoons
My travel passion is cruising, and I love introducing others to this exciting form of vacationing! Alaska and the Inside Passage is one of my biggest sellers, easy to understand with the wildlife and natural beauty available there. Seeing/hearing a glacier calve is indescribable. But the blue waters and warm weather of the Caribbean have my heart! Eastern, Western, Southern - I'm there as often as possible, which makes me uniquely qualified to help others with those cruise destinations.
I also book all-inclusive resorts, from Negril to Cabo, Cancun to Punta Cana, and I especially love crafting memorable honeymoons for newly married couples. Taking the time to understand what they really desire and researching the best options is all part of my service. I want the beginning of their lives together to create priceless memories and set the tone for the years ahead. Nothing makes me happier than hearing what a wonderful experience they had on their wedding trip.

Family trip 2026
Reviewed By Noni - Hillsboro, Illinois | Traveled to Caribbean Sea | At Sea | At Sea
We had already booked a family cruise for 15 during our last cruise vacation. I quickly realized that I was struggling with the airfare, hotels, transports etc. I contacted Nancy and she responded very quickly to our needs. Seamlessly booked all the airfare with for the whole group, even though 2 were flying from a different local airport. She booked our pre-cruise overnight stay at an awesome hotel, complete with all our needs (breakfast & oversized rooms) and arranged A+ transfer service for our large group using a shuttle service. Using top notch services, everything went off without a glitch!!!
Nancy was very responsive in emailing and was going over and above to fill my requirements.

Wonderful Italy!!
Reviewed By Helen J. - Edwardsville, IL | Traveled to Italy | Europe
We wanted to travel independently and with Nancy's help, we were able to do so very well. She took the time to understand our goals for the trip as well as the things we wanted to avoid. Her attention to detail in navigating trains, ferries, buses, airplanes, etc. gave us the confidence to take our trip of a lifetime and enjoy it in a way that was tailored exactly for us!
Nancy Richardson responded
"Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm thrilled that your trip to Italy allowed you to experience a more "authentic" Italy just like you wanted!"

Goes the extra mile
Reviewed By WorldTraveler999 - Peoria, IL | Traveled to Riviera Maya | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Nancy has been fantastic on all of the trips I’ve used her for, but the one that really stands out is my trip to Mexico. On the day I was scheduled to travel home, I was so sick that I couldn’t leave the resort. Nancy got on her computer at 6AM on a Saturday to change my flight and airport reservations for me, so I’d have one less thing to manage while fighting food poisoning. And then after I returned, she checked in regularly to see how the process was going with getting some money reimbursed by the trip-insurance company.
Nancy’s a great travel agent, but what truly sets her apart is her dedication to her clients and the personal touch she takes with us!
Nancy Richardson responded
"Thank you, Heather, for your wonderful review! It's always a pleasure to work with you and see what challenges you can give me to stretch my abilities. Looking forward to booking many more trips with you!"
