About Me

The view from the top! Hiking in the Galapagos!

Hi, I'm Shelley Embrey! I grew up in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and moved around a bit after graduation. In 1996, while living in Honolulu, I completed a Travel Agency Management program and that's when my travel agent career began. In January 2013 I left the corporate world behind and started my own business as a home based independent agent. I absolutely love the freedom and flexibility of owning and operating my own agency!

My goal is to provide my clients with attentive, professional, and personalized service. I love to design custom itineraries based on my client's individual wants and needs!

I specialize in honeymoons, all inclusive packages, premium/luxury ocean cruises, river cruises, corporate incentive retreats, wellness travel, escorted tours, customized tours, and groups. 

I would love the opportunity to help you plan your next adventure!

Knew it, Did it!
Reviewed By HoHo - Austin, TX | Traveled to
Shelley LISTENED to what my vision of the trip was and then brought it to life! She asked questions and made suggestions that changed a great trip into a MEMORABLE trip. Shelly was organized, easy to communicate with AND followed up on an item AFTER my trip was over for me. FULL service with a smile. We visited Cardiff Wales, Stoke-On-Trent and London England. She highlighted the transportation options that would provide the most fun and ease of travel. She provided travel insurance information which I hadnt ever used before~this was important as I was traveling with an elder family member. It was details like that that made my confidence Shelley's professional skills soar. Most importantly for me, she answered questions, so many questions. I left on the journey with only great expectations of fun, all my "what ifs" were handled.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
