About Me

Ah, that first glimpse of your next destination!
Ah, that first glimpse of your next destination!

I was bitten by the travel bug at an early age. 

My parents were always ready to go on an adventure. We travelled much of Canada & the United States (even some of Mexico) in our truck & camper. My first flight was to Quebec for a student exchange with my high school French class. There is nothing like being immersed in a culture to truly appreciate and experience it.

Since then I have been blessed to be able to travel extensively throughout Canada, USA, Mexico and the Caribbean. A European River Cruise has been the latest trip I've checked off my travel to-do list. I've travelled solo, with my husband and kids as well as in groups with my extended family and friends.

I live in the Canadian prairies and enjoy the most amazing sunrises and sunsets that come with wide open spaces. I also have the longest winters and that makes me love and appreciate the sea, sun & sand! I'm forever in search of the next great beach!

I've been researching and organizing trips for family & friends - and groups of both - long before I was a travel advisor. Group travel is kind of like herding cats, it's hard to get everyone on the same page and deal with all the different personalities. That happens to be one of my strengths.

Contact me when you are ready to book your next vacation - be it by yourself, with your significant other or with a group of your nearest & dearest. I'll do all the hard work so you can focus on creating lifelong memories with your family & friends!

Destination Wedding
Reviewed By Tasha K - Saskatchewan | Traveled to Varadero ~ Cuba ~ Caribbean
Not sure how much room I have to write about not only a fantabulous travel agent but a wonderful lady whom I think soo highly of. Lori you worked sooo hard at communicating with our resort and getting us the information and contacts we needed to have a great wedding. I loved our chats about the wedding and life in general. You made the experience a personal one as if I was planning our wedding with a friend. You just can’t find that anymore in this day and age. I can guarantee everyone who books through you will have an amazing experience as you helped us in soo many ways! Kudos and a huge thumbs up Wanderlori Travel!! You rock and I will forever be booking through you
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Costa Rica
Reviewed By JT - Saskatchewan | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
Lori helped my wife and I plan a beautiful trip to Costa Rica. The (brand new) resort we were to stay at wasnt finished on time as promoted , so Lori went above and beyond to set us up (on short notice) with a sister resort. She negotiated a room upgrade (to a Villa) , got us $1000US in resort credits , and made sure that everything was locked in place (with Air Canada and the resort) before we got there. We didn't want unwelcome surprises (others weren't so lucky). She also helped us with information on some excursions. And best of all , set us up with our ENTIRE itinerary with her phone app "Trip Plans". This keeps track of all flights , excursions , vehicle rentals etc. so a person won't forget a thing. Thanks Wanderlori! Looking forward to you booking our next trip soon!

Shout Out to Wanderlori Travel
Reviewed By Connie B - Saskatchewan | Traveled to Las Vegas ~ Nevada ~ USA
Just got back for a 5 day , 4 night stay in Las Vegas and want to give a shout out to Lori. From start to finish our trip was planned so well! The flights were at perfect times for us , allowing total usage of our time in VEGAS. Lori went out of her way to do up a birthday certificate to announce the trip to my daughter (it so is the little extras that set Lori above & apart from other companies). Lori found us the perfect (within our budget) hotel in the middle of the strip. All of Lori's advice and helpful hints were bang on. She even stayed on top of things so far as to send us a reminder list a couple days before the trip & did some aftercare too! Upon our return home we received a welcome home and a 'how was it' kinda email! Never have I had such a personal touch added. I mean she cared how our trip went and wanted to know if she could've done anything to make it better!I highly recommend her company for any of your travel needs big or small she's your gal!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Beautiful Resorts - Friendly People
Reviewed By The Zacs - Carlyle, SK Canada | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Lori has always been friendly, energetic, and hard working to meet our travel needs. I usually have many requests and questions regarding our travel and she spends the extra time to find the answers if she doesn’t have them. She also communicates through email, text, phone, and her travel app all the way up to the week before we leave. I also need to mention Lori offers several destinations at our budget along with date options! I really appreciate having choices of destination and all inclusive resorts. We have booked with Lori on many holidays and we have never been disappointed!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Oh, Beach Please!

Why You Need a Beach Vacation

The Sea. The  Sun. The Sand. Need I say more? (no, but I will!) The sound of the waves lapping the shore, the way the wind ruffles your hair, the smell of the fresh air, the sight of all the hues of blue in the sky and the water, and the feel of the sun kissing your skin. It's relaxing, soothing and it elevates your mood....
