She made our bucket list trips come true!
Reviewed By Betsy - San Antonio, Texas | Traveled to
As a former flight attendant, I love to travel but hate all the complex planning that is involved in making our vacations fun and meaningful. Maria Moore has been helping our family plan travel for 20 years! There doesn't seem to be anyplace in the world or any type of tour that she can't handle. Maria has put together our bucket list trips of a lifetime. She helped my husband and I plan a pilgrimage hike from Nazareth to the Sea of Galilee - the Jesus Trail that is a 40 mile route that literally follows in his footsteps and immersed us in biblical history. Closer to home, she has arranged cruises from Florida - both girls trips and family trips with the kids. She works with a private tour company to make special memories such as the one we enjoyed in Jamaica - climbing a waterfall and swimming with dolphins! She has also helped us find the best places in Arizona (she was born and raised there and knows all the best spots in Arizona). Since she is a certified Disney expert, she has also gotten us insider access to Walt Disney World. She even added an extension to Vero Beach Florida, where we got to go on a special turtle walk on the beach. Last year she helped me plan a trips to Paris and London with my two teenage daughters. Our memories will last a lifetime and Maria Moore will always be the very first person I contact when I decide to go to a new destination! Close to home or far away, I know I am in good hands with Maria and her team at Smooth Sailing Discount Cruises.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

she made our trip to Peru magical
Reviewed By patric - tampa, fl | Traveled to
I absolutely loved the way how seamless everything went for us. From the pick up at the airport to the hotels to the end of the trip, it was absolutely wonderful. Maria Moore had everything organized, and she was very patient with us. This was a very complicated journey with 9 total segments involved with planes, buses and trains. . We went to Lima then Cusco as well as the famous Pisac Market and the spectacular ruins of Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu, and the Sacred Valley are magical destinations for a Peru vacation. Maria accompanied us with the local guides, and she was energetic and knowledgeable. Bravo to Maria Moore for putting together this trip of a lifetime. I would highly recommend Maria and this tour to Peru. . Machu Picchu was amazing and beautiful. Pictures truly cannot capture the beauty of this place.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

She made it easy to travel the world even in a wheelchair
Reviewed By Mary and Tom - Show Low, AZ | Traveled to
There are a lot of travel agents out there, but Maria Moore is truly a travel professional. When we started looking at cruises we found a lot of confusing fine print. Maria explained everything from what to do if we needed to cancel, book shore tours with local companies and more. She was our best resource and an invaluable guide. It 's hard to travel with my husband being in a wheelchair and scooter, but she found the ship and itinerary where we could see everything easily. She took a lot of time to help us explore our many choices and book our dream cruise vacations. She sent us on two Holland America cruises. She sent us to Hawaii and the South Pacific. We are a retired couple and live in a very small town and this was a way that we were able to experience the other side of the world but still be very comfortable. We know that Maria can help anyone have the experience of a lifetime.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Many wonderful years of cruises and travel planned by Maria
Reviewed By Karla & Pete - Boulder, CO | Traveled to
I met Maria on a Princess Cruise from Santiago to Buenos Aires many years ago and have been traveling the world with her assistance ever since. Maria has helped my family and friends plan trips around the world from Antarctica to the Carribean and beyond. She is experienced, extremely knowledgeable, very professional, efficient and fun to work with. She never fails to go the extra mile which really shows how much she enjoys and appreciates her clients.She can think "out of the box" to find and create the best trip that will be perfect for your needs. I highly recommend you call her if you are looking for a GREAT travel agent. She can help make your dreams come true!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

My Amazing African Adventures

Great journeys often involve great contrasts. Africa is a case in point. Having been on 5 African safaris ranging from 14 to 28 days I've been through 34 degrees of latitude and four countries, but, most engagingly and contrastingly, I experienced the diverse excitement from Southern to Eastern Africa . There's  Cape Town with their Afric...
