Global Leisure Travel Agent Expert
I am a passionate global traveler whose journey across four continents has been shaped by curiosity, respect for culture, and a deep love for exploration. Travel for me is not about marking destinations off the list, but about understanding places through their art, history, landscapes, and people.
My interests span arts and architecture, ancient ruins, castles, cathedrals, as well as nature, adventure, and responsible travel that respects and protects the environment. I am especially drawn to experiences that combine intellectual discovery with meaningful connection-travel that informs, inspires, and leaves a positive footprint.
With experience ranging from budget conscious family travel, adventure enthusiast or luxury cruisers, I understand how to create value at every level. My goal is to help others to travel confidently, offering guidance that balances culture, adventure, sustainability and comfort-tailored to curious, open-minded travelers seeking depth as well as joy.

Fantastic trip
Reviewed By Bella - Miami, FL | Traveled to Belize | Central America
That was our second time using Susan's service. She is such a pleasure to work with. We take her recommendation, because we trust her. At the beginning she ask lots of questions, that's how she knows what kind of travelers we are, our hobbies, interests, likes and dislikes. She takes care of our budget too, never pushes our limit just to sell. That is a big concern for us (these days everyone wants to sell sell sell, that can be very annoying.) Not with Susan. She respects our request, and we really appreciate it.
Our travel was fantastic, we enjoyed every moment. That's the reason we keep coming back to Susan knowing we don't have to worry, only focus on to have the best time. We kindly recommend her to our friends, family.

Here we come Nashville, TN
Reviewed By Yee haw - Lakewood Ranch, FL | Traveled to Nashville | Tennessee | USA
One that loves country music must go to Nashville. Right? So thankful to Susan that dream became a reality. Susan planned for me every logistics, recommendations to must see, must go places, and booked me to the luxurious Gaylord Opryland Resort. Yee-haw!
I love the fact, that Susan is very professional and knows exactly her customer's needs and she delivers it. I would not work with anyone else, when it comes to travel, and have a stress free, fun filled time. I keep recommending her to my family and friends.

Last minute weekend getaway
Reviewed By FunnyChef - Naples | Traveled to Marathon | Florida | USA
I use Susan's service for awhile, because she always finds great deals, last minute vacation and she is only a phone call away. Requesting a trip with such short time energizes her, because she is so passionate about sending her clients to a wonderful vacation, short or longer time. She is pleasure to talk with, very reliable and knowledgeable. I called her up to find me something exciting, also relaxing ( if I wanted to) for a quick weekend getaway. She had some idea, we decided to go to one of the Florida keys best Resort and Spa. Susan jumped in to book a garden room with private patio (knowing that I may bring my girlfriend), ordered a bottle of Champagne and sweet bites to our room. It was such a nice touch from her.
Needless to say we had an amazing, unforgettable weekend.
Thanks again Susan! As always I recommend her service to everyone I come contact with.

Best family trip in Disney
Reviewed By EvaZnB - Easton, PA | Traveled to Walt Disney World | Florida | USA
I called Susan to help me with a trip to Orlando, since she lives in Florida not far from Orlando. I expected she knows the whole area, specifically Walt Disney World, what was dream of my five years old little son. After the initial phone call Susan started to plan our vacation. She suggested a few resorts keeping in mind that our son loves water, so the resorts must have nice pool area, more pools are the better. Distance to the Magic and Animal Kingdom from the Resort should be just a short shuttle ride, since we didn't want to rent a car. Susan carefully paid attention to our request, helped with all the small details and gave recommendation, and useful tips how to make our vacation more fun less stress. She was very professional really knowing her craft. We had an exhaustingly good time in Orlando, trip that we never will forget. Many thanks to Susan!
We highly recommend her and will book our next trip with her too.

Fun business trip
Reviewed By Roby - Atlanta | Traveled to New York City | New York | USA
Just came back from a business trip, that thanks for Susan, turned out actually a fun trip. I am not too keen about flying, but I must do a quick business trip to NYC. Susan insisted to fly on first class, she booked an amazing Hotel looking over Central Park. She also surprised me with a Broadway show ticket she booked for me on-line. We had a long business relationship, she knows my interests, hobbies. She brings out the best even of a supposedly boring business trip. With her professionalism I surely had great time. Gladly recommend her to my friends.
