About Me

As a Group Travel Specialist, I bring people together through thoughtfully curated journeys that are seamless, enriching, and tailored to the unique dynamics of traveling with a group. Whether you're organizing a multi-generational family vacation, a milestone celebration, a themed voyage, or a special interest trip, I manage every detail with care and precision — so all you need to do is show up and enjoy the experience.

With years of expertise in designing and managing group travel for both land and sea, I understand the nuance required to make each journey feel personal, even with many guests. From helping you choose the perfect cruise or resort to coordinating flights, transfers, exclusive excursions, dining, and events, I offer concierge-level planning and support from our first conversation through your return home.

At EBA Travel, I believe travel is about connection — and group travel, when done right, becomes a shared memory that lasts a lifetime. My goal is to make sure every member of your group feels valued, inspired, and taken care of, no matter the size or complexity of the trip.

If you’re considering hosting a group getaway, I’d be honored to help you bring it to life — with elegance, ease, and unforgettable moments along the way. Would you like a variation of this for use in proposals, presentations, or a one-sheet to market group travel services to clients?

{Fantastic Paris & Normandy River Cruise
Reviewed By Marianne F - Brooklyn, NY | Traveled to France ~ Europe
Erika Bodwell was the wonderful travel agent who arranged our recent river cruise which went from Paris to Normandy and back. We had never river cruised before, and Erika held our hand through the whole process. She is a very well-informed agent who totally understood our needs as older travelers. She helped us find a river cruise that was financially appropriate and perfectly suited to our interests. Erika was fun to work with and easy to talk to. I highly recommend seeking her advice and guidance if you are interested in traveling conveniently and comfortably with many opportunities to learn about our world
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Italy trip of a lifetime
Reviewed By Bonnie M - Deltona, Florida | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
“My husband and I planned a trip to Italy with Erika. We went at the end of April and took my mom, who is a healthy 83-year-young woman! I explained to Erika what we all wanted to do and see and left the rest up to her. With a few tweaks to our itinerary we set off to Italy! What Erika put together for us was absolutely amazing! From the hotel stays, private tours, and train transfers, I did not have to worry about one thing, except for having fun and relishing in the beauty around us! It was such a special trip with my mom and husband and the memories we made will last a very long time.

Erika is so easy to work with and stressed over and over that she is a phone call away for any questions. Thank you Erika for knowing what we wanted and getting it done for us. We wouldn't have changed a thing.”
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
