Luxury & River Cruise Enthusiast
Today, luxury is not made of marble. Luxury is offering exclusive experiences the ordinary traveler doesn't have access to. Wanting to try a new destination? With over 30 years of being a travel snob, I understand that having coffee with kangaroos in Australia and a Vespa tour through Tuscany should not be missed. Don't forget cooking with a "Nonna" in Italy, Funicular ride to the top of Mt. Pilatus in Switzerland to finding the best quaint hotels some of the world has to offer or some of the best overwater bungalows the south Pacific has to offer. After all the devil is in the details!
I have river cruised on almost all of the rivers in Europe including the Seine, Danube, Rhine and Rhone along with Tulip time in the Netherlands. I have sailed with AMA waterways, Avalon, Uniworld and Viking. I can tell you the difference in quality and held guide you in making a decision that works best for you. After all, that's what makes and expert is first hand knowledge.

Missy is a joy to work with
Reviewed By Cindy - Minnetonka MN | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy is one of the most passionate agents I know. She really truly cares
about her clients. I know this because I am one of her Whole Sale Business Development Managers. I have worked with Missy for many years. She puts her heart and soul into every booking to make sure she is giving the best advise for the best price to each and every client. When things go right she is so excited about the trips she has planned and takes delight in hearing her clients stories. The very few times things go wrong she is right there trying to get things fixed to the satisfaction of her clients. If my family or friends were looking for an agent Missy would be one that I would recommend. She is knowledgeable, she listens to what your needs and wants are, she makes suggestions based on her experiences and she does this all with a smile.

Magical Experience
Reviewed By Happy Campers - St. Paul, MN | Traveled to Europe
Missy provided outstanding service in assisting us with our vacation planning. She was methodical and patient, working on general ideas first, then focusing on hotels, travel modes (trains, flights, etc.), and finally, specific activities which required advance reservations. She was able to offer alternative ideas through her vast experience of travel that were amazing additions to our trip. And by the time our planning was complete, she packaged everything in a neat, concise travel packet with everything documented in a day by day itinerary. And although we never needed to use them, we were given emergency contacts and numbers in the event of problems on our trip. Thank you Missy!!!

Our Wedding
Reviewed By Sean - St. Paul, MN | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Our experience was terrific. We came to Missy with the plan of getting married on a beach in the Caribbean. Missy guided us through many different options to help us find the right one for us.
Missy not only was in constant contact with us, but also with our wedding planner at the resort to ensure that everything went according to plan. What could have been a very difficult and stressful process was made very simple. Her recommendation was great. We really enjoyed our resort, it was perfect for our group.
Missy was on top of every detail and prompt with responses to any questions we had or problems that came up.
Shortly before we left Missy sent us a package with travel checklists, some hints for do's and don'ts in the Dominican as well other relevant information about our destination. She even sent us luggage tags with our information already on them.
Missy provided us with everything we expected and more. We will only use Missy for our travel needs from this point forward.

No trip, but still great service.
Reviewed By Tom - Edgewater, FL | Traveled to Europe
Missy planned a superb trip for us, which unfortunately we were unable to take due to illness. So my review is primarily about the great job she did securing complete refunds from the cruise line and insurance company, including all airfare and deposits. I filled out a couple of forms and she took it from there.
If every trip went off without a hitch, we wouldn't always need a great travel agent. But they don't, and we do. And Missy is a great travel agent.

Missy was amazing! She arranged a great vacation for us at a good price. Our only criteria were "an all-inclusive someplace warm".
Unfortunately one day into our trip, we experienced a medical emergency and had to fly home. This is where Missy truly shined! She was able to get our return tickets transferred to a flight home that afternoon, and not only that, was able to get us a very generous voucher for a redo on the trip.
After our experience, it's safe to say we will be using Missy for all future vacations, and recommending her to anyone we know who will be traveling.

Still Dreaming of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
Reviewed By Jillian - Blaine, MN | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Working with Missy is a pleasure every time. This is the third time we have booked a vacation through Missy. I find it beneficial to use a travel agent when traveling to a foreign country, because it makes things a lot easier when you get there in terms of finding your transportation from the airport to the hotel, then departing, etc. We had a bad experience in Cabo with the hotel (which had nothing to do with Missy) and she made it right for us. I like working with Missy because she is prompt, friendly and really knowledgable. I have thrown a lot of scenarios out at Missy when planning a vacation and she never minds giving us as much info as we need to make us feel comfortable planning our vacation.

I have been working with Missy Skoog for many years. She is always pleasant to deal with and very efficient when making our bookings. She is always available by phone, email or in person. I am currently working on 2 cruise bookings with fairly large groups of people with Missy and she has helped with everything from booking the cruise, selecting cabins, making dinner reservations and getting friend referrals set up.
Our group primarily uses Missy for cruise travels but have also had her investigate all inclusive resorts in the Caribbean and she provided a wealth of knowledge and first hand experiences with many of the resorts we were looking at.
I look forward to continuing my relationship with Missy and booking MANY more vacations with her. I HIGHLY recommend Missy - she is a GREAT travel agent.

Missy has been amazing since the first time we used her services! She went above and beyond to help us plan the most amazing wedding trip ever! We have continued to work with her and send all our friends and family to her because she always makes sure you're taken care of.
On our first vacation, we encountered an issue with our room reservation. I got Missy on the phone and explained the issue. She said "Don't worry about it. Go have fun and I'll take care of it." Sure enough, 2 hours later, a resort employee found us and told us everything was taken care of! Amazing!
Not only that, but working with her on picking this resort proved to be way worth it! She helped us narrow down our options and we ultimately decided on Secrets Silversands. She told us that she loved these resorts and that we were picking a great one, and boy was she right! We have continued to go back to Secrets because they are so wonderful!

Reviewed By Joni - Andover, MN | Traveled to Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Missy was so helpful from the start! Beautiful resort and location. Weather was perfect! While we were in Mexico, the Covid pandemic and social distancing started back home. Missy reassured us that we will be fine getting home and was in touch with our crew giving updates everyday. While we were aware of everything and uncertainty at home, we were still able to enjoy our vacation knowing Missy was taking care of everything and would notify us of any changes.

Better than expected
Reviewed By Jenniern - Cozumel | Traveled to Mexico
Secrets Aura Cozumel was better than I was expecting. I had read some bad reviews, but our experience was great! We had hot water in the shower and the air conditioning worked as well. We did have a little dripping from the air conditioner in our bathroom and maintenance tried to fix it for us, but it kept dripping on and off all week. No big deal. The staff were wonderful! Very friendly and helpful. The food was great at the a la carte restaurants. Our favorite was the hibachi dinner on the roof at the Sky Bar. The chef was great and the food was delicious. The buffet left a bit too be desired. Not very many things to choose from and the food was pretty bland. The beach was great, but it was kind of difficult to get into the water because of the rocks right off the beach. Missy did a great job steering us in the right direction for where to go on our vacation again this year - she always does. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone as a travel agent.

Wonderful Trip!!
Reviewed By Happy Traveler - Maple Grove | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
I have worked with my travel agent Missy Skoog for quite some time now and she is extremely helpful through the whole traveling process, from the first phone call to book my vacation, to answering all my questions on suggested places to travel and the different hotels and options, to the welcoming home email she sends after every trip, she truly is a very patient, caring, informative agent who sets your mind at ease when traveling abroad. After traveling to Cancun and staying at the same hotel (Fiesta Americana Condesa)for several years, (which by the way is a wonderful place to go) I decided I wanted to try a different hotel (Riu Palace Las Americas) and Missy was very honest with my hotel choice and told me that I may not be as happy with my choice of hotel that I wanted to try and gave me the reasons why. I decided to give the Riu a try as I was traveling with three other people and had to consult with them. We ended up being pleasantly surprised and extremely happy at the Riu Palace Las Americas in Cancun. The hotel was beautiful on the outside, a very clean bright white building with flowers all around, the inside was beautiful with huge dark wood pillars, a stained glass area overhead when you walked into the hotel, nice clean comfortable furniture to sit on. The check in and check out was fast and efficient, all of the staff were wonderful no matter what you were doing or what area you were at. The food was good and they had plenty of options. The most impressive about this hotel is how immaculately clean it is and how well they have kept it up for its age!

Missy is absolutely the BEST!
Reviewed By RyanONeill10 - Bloomington, MN | Traveled to Punta Cana | Dominican Republic | Caribbean
Missy Skoog did an absolutely AWESOME job coordinating travel for The Minnesota Real Estate Team’s recent Top Producer Trip to the Dominican Republic. Planning for a group of 50 people is no small task, yet Missy handled every detail with professionalism, patience, grace, and genuine care from start to finish.
She is incredibly kind, responsive, and knowledgeable, and she made herself accessible throughout the entire process. No question was too small, no concern was overlooked, and she consistently went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt informed, prepared, and confident before departure. Travel plans can change quickly, especially with a large group, but Missy navigated every situation calmly and efficiently.
What stood out most was her heart for service. It never felt transactional. And she truly wanted each person to have a smooth, enjoyable experience and worked hard to provide real value every step of the way. Many on our team commented on how supported they felt by her, which speaks volumes about her dedication and attention to people, not just logistics.
If you are planning individual travel or coordinating a large group trip, I cannot recommend Missy highly enough. She brings expertise, patience, and a genuine desire to help that is rare to find. We are very grateful for all she did to make our trip such a success. And we will be working with Missy again next year :).
Thank you again for all you have done, Missy! Your kind and generous heart shines through in all that you do.
Take care,

My wife and I and friends have been using Missy to book our trips for years. We continue to book with Missy because she is not only very professional, but always very pleasant, easy to work with and goes the extra mile.
My wife and I just got off a cruise on Royal Caribbeans Allure of the Seas and we had a great time. However, we had an issue with our car rental in getting to the port. Missy had nothing to do with our car rental, I booked that myself. However I called Missy on a Saturday for help. The office was closed but she called me back within five minutes. Missy spent over an hour trying to work on solutions, even though this wasn't her issue. We made the ship by the hair on our chin, but made it.
During that time Missy gave me good advice and worked hard to assist us.
We just booked another cruise with Missy and continue to always suggest that our family and friends use her.

The ship AMAKristina, was clean, modern, well appointed and the staff were terrific. The food was very good and the evening entertainment was also very good.

The resort is very clean, gorgeously landscaped, has multiple pools and bars, and the people are super friendly! We never had a bad meal either! Only problem was we should have stayed an extra week! :)
Thank you, Missy - we had an amazing time and you again, made it so easy!!

Reviewed By none - Shoreview, MN | Traveled to Maui Island | Hawaii | USA
Missy has scheduled many our trips to Maui which we go to every January. She does a great job handling all of our arrangements. We stay at Kaanapali Shores in Maui every year. It is very comfortable, is right on the ocean and has great whale watching. Each year it seems as though we say this was our best trip but I think this year was even better. We love Maui and can't wait to have Missy start soon on our 2026 Maui vacation. We are probably biased but feel Maui is the best of the Hawaiian islands. Aloha!

We have used Missy as our travel agent for years because she takes the time to listen! Missy knows what we love to do on vacation, our favorite activities, and suggests trips with the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. We could figure out all the pieces of planning ourselves but Missy makes traveling so easy! From our flights to transport to our destination and finding the perfect place for our budget and interests, and assisting with booking excursions Missy hasn’t failed yet! Her experience with travel is invaluable in making travel decisions easy and worry free!

Missy is a great agent. She returns texts, emails, phone calls quickly. She scheduled a 12 day Delta Vacation to Hawaii. She stayed within the dollar amounts I asked for. We did not go big with Resort accommodations, but we were very pleased with both resorts- Royal Kona Resort-Hawaii and Sheraton Kauai Resort-Kauai. Big beautiful rooms over looking ocean in both. Perhaps a bit dated showers in both (shower in tub). Great included breakfast at Royal Kona overlooking waves crashing the rocks below.

My husband and I traveled to Riu Palace Riviera Maya with 3 children (ages 9, 13, and 16). It was important to us to stay in a place that guaranteed adjoining rooms. We read so many bad reviews of resorts where families asked for adjoining rooms and didn't get them. We felt much more comfortable working with a travel agent to make sure our family's needs were met. We loved our resort and had clean and spacious adjoining rooms.

Working with Missy is always great! We tell her where we want to travel, our timing and a general itinerary and she takes it from there. On our last adventure, we went on a cruise and wanted to spend some extra time in Athens before embarking on our ship and more time in Venice as we disembarked. Missy sent us options for not only hotels in Athens and Venice but also transportation and tour options in both of these cities. We told her our choices and she booked them for us. Since payment wasn't due at the time of our bookings, Missy sent us reminders on when payments were due. I never worried we'd miss a payment deadline and lose the reservation. I can't understand why anyone would book any trip without using Missy! Her services are unbeatable!

Awesome Trip of a Lifetime
Reviewed By Sue P - Ramsey, MN | Traveled to Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Missy set my husband and I up with the trip of a lifetime - a 12-night Mediterranean cruise. We cruised on Celebrity's newest ship the Ascent, leaving out of Barcelona, Spain. We hit one port in France, three ports in Italy, one port in Turkey and 4 ports in Greece. All the destinations were lovely, but the stops in Greece - Phenomenal! When I told Missy what I wanted in a vacation, she suggested Celebrity and, as always, she was completely right. Everything was fantastic - from the ship, to the captain, crew, meals, entertainment, state room and excursions. There was one stop in Greece, where all the excursions had been booked already, so Missy stepped in and I was able to book an excursion through Travel Leaders. This was by far the best trip my husband and I have ever taken and we could not have done it without Missy. Thanks so much Missy. You're the BEST!!!

A Great Tour Guide
Reviewed By Curt - Palm Springs, CA and Hayward, Wisconsin | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Missy is delightful to work with. She is efficient and on-task always. She starts each trip planning process with her going over what she thinks it important; she sends out maps and sample itineraries, then lets us figure out the rest. She has down complete tours for us and has down a portion or segment of a trip allowing me to plan and organize the rest. She also taps into her international network if she believes an international insight or connections will help make our trip more meaningful. When we experienced no-show tour people, or tour accidents (with no fault to her at all), she helped us try to get resolution or compensation after we returned to the states. Her upbeat attitude is great. She is our go-to resource for any international travel we plan!

The most helpful travel agent during the pandemic
Reviewed By Bill & Diane - Ham Lake, MN | Traveled to Europe
We had booked a group tour to Europe which included the Passion Play in Oberammergau. Missy helped us book hotels to extend our vacation for 10 days. When the pandemic hit, and travel to Europe became impossible, we were quite concerned because we had booked our hotels at the non-refundable rates. Missy worked endlessly for us, and every dollar was refunded to us.

"This has been the bumpy road to say the least. While I have done everything I can to make things as stress-less as possible for my customers these are a win when I can make these miracles happen.

Italy trip the way it should be
Reviewed By Murrah W. - Cohutta, GA | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
I had long desired to go to Italy but really didn't know how to go about getting the experience of several different locations with an adequate amount of time in each. My research turned up Missy Skoog's name as not only someone who was an expert on Italy but also someone who loved it as well. Right from the start I knew she had been a great find. She listened to my vague ideas and then turned them into a practical and detailed plan. We worked with each other to develop an Itinerary that accomplished my goal and met my budget. There were a lot of details to consider which she meticulously took care of with amazing ease. I am absolutely positive that I could never have put together a trip like this without her expert help.

Easiest vacation planning I’ve ever experienced
Reviewed By Sarah - St Paul, MN | Traveled to Ireland ~ Europe
Missy was very helpful in helping me plan my vacation to Ireland! Trying to plan our trip alone was stressful. I had no idea what I was doing, and overwhelmed with all the choices until we got Missy’s help. She booked great hotels that were in the center of the cities we wanted to see so it was easy for us to see as much as possible. She provided a couple of different itineraries so we could choose which was best for what we wanted out of the trip and the one we chose was perfect! The day tour to northern Ireland was wonderful because we had a great tour guide that gave us so much information about the history of the area. It was an amazing trip and I will always remember our first adventure to the Emerald Isle. Of course we’ll be going back in the future. And with Missy’s help, she makes the planning easy, quick, and within our budget. She is very knowledgable and experienced in travel and will definitely use her services in the future.

38 days through the Pacific to NZ and Australia
Reviewed By pdq - North Oaks, MN | Traveled to Australia & New Zealand
Missy has planned a couple of trips for us now, and she's shown herself to be both knowledgable and easy to work with. For instance, I recently (foolishly!) had her book with a carrier against her advice, because it was a little cheaper than her original recommendation. My attempt go cut corners backfired when the cheaper carrier cancelled our return flight, and we had to book on the airline Missy had originally recommended, at the last minute. I learned my lesson- she knows her stuff!
We have enough confidence with Missy and her agency that we can let them book tours for us on our travels, and they've always turned out great.
