About Me

Saint Maarten, Royal Caribbean Cruise
Saint Maarten, Royal Caribbean Cruise

Since 2019, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients plan unforgettable vacations around the world. What started as a passion for travel has grown into a trusted, client-focused business built on attention to detail, strong industry relationships, and a commitment to delivering seamless travel experiences.

I hold professional certifications and advanced training with many of the industry’s leading travel brands, including Royal Caribbean, Carnival Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, Virgin Voyages, Sandals & Beaches Resorts, Apple Vacations, Funjet Vacations, Delta Vacations, Europe Express, Palace Resorts, Secrets & Dreams Resorts, Xcaret, Globus/Cosmos, Kensington Tours, Aurora Expeditions, MSC Cruises, Princess Cruises,  Allianz Travel Insurance, Disney Destinations, and Universal Orlando,  among others. I am also CLIA-certified and hold elite training designations through multiple cruise and tour operators.

As a member of Travel Leaders Network, one of the industry’s premier travel consortiums, I’m able to offer my clients access to exclusive amenities, preferred partner perks, and added value such as onboard credit and special inclusions when available.

With firsthand experience traveling to more than 28 countries, I bring real-world insight to every itinerary I design. I understand that no two travelers are alike, which is why I take a personalized approach to every trip, whether it’s a luxury getaway, bucket-list adventure, cruise, or group experience.

My background as a Spanish teacher has shaped my approach to travel planning. I prioritize clear communication, organization, and thoughtful preparation. I take care of every detail behind the scenes so you can travel with confidence and fully enjoy the experience.

Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with a group, I’m here to turn your vision into a well-planned, stress-free journey.

So much fun!
Reviewed By Celi Surita - Elk Grove, CA | Traveled to Universal Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Allyssa made our vacation planning so easy. It was an extreme weight lifted off my shoulders as I usually am the one doing all the vacation planning and researching different prices for our large family of 8. She was quick to respond to every question I had and so easily reachable even though we live in different time zones. She checked in with me often to make sure our family did not need anything else. Plus, she made amazing recommendations for our trip. She is extremely knowledgeable. She truly went above and beyond with arranging our theme park tickets, our hotel arrangement, and even making sure we had transportation set up being that we are a large group. Then to top it all off we all had such an amazing time. We cannot wait to go back. When we do we will for sure be reaching out to Allyssa again. I cannot thank her enough.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Family Universal/Disney Orlando
Reviewed By Neener - Rapid City SD | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Allyssa was awesome. I explained that we wanted 3 days at US and 2 at Disney with the specific parks we wanted to see. With her expertise and knowledge she made it all happen. Loved her spread sheet of things that needed to be done and when. With her knowledge of how to ride the rides at the parks we were able to ride the ones we wanted. Will definitely use her services again. Don’t be afraid to use her services even if you don’t live near her, I live 350 miles away from her. You can do things virtually.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

New York
Reviewed By Traveler - VA | Traveled to New York | USA
Destination: New York I decided to take an impromptu trip to New York during Christmas. Just about every place was sold out, but Allyssa was able to find us a really nice place to stay near the places we wanted to go. She is quick to respond and very organized. We had a great trip and will be using Allyssa again next time.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

My Travel Stories

The Battle of Culloden

Walking Through Outlander’s Scotland

Scotland has always been a land of legends, but seeing it through the lens of Outlander brought it to life in an entirely new way. From the moment I stepped onto the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh, I could feel the echoes of history all around me. But nothing compared to standing at the base of Doune Castle, which served as Castle Leoch...

Canadian Railway Adventure

Alaska by Sea: The Ultimate Summer Adventure

There’s nothing quite like sailing through Alaska’s Inside Passage aboard the Ovation of the Seas. From the moment we boarded in Seattle, it was clear this was going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The air was crisp, the views endless, and the excitement onboard was contagious. We cruised past towering glaciers and emerald fjords, ...

Client Testimonials

Allyssa was great since the beginning.
It was very easy to book with her and her response to all my questions was very fast. As being my first time booking with a travel agent I was a little nervous but she was very nice and made great suggestions for my trip. I would definitely recommend working with her.
Gabriela Rodezno
Allyssa has been amazing to work with!
Planning the first trip to Disney World was daunting but she has been so amazing and helpful! Its a relief to know I can rely on her help and knowledge! Cannot wait until our Disney trip in December
Alicia Odland
Highly recommend her
We've been working with Allyssa on an Alaskan vacation that included extra time in Anchorage. She's outstanding on working out all the details, from the travel from the airport to the hotel...5 star...to the cruise south..to the travel from the docks to the hotel and airport for the trip home. Shout out to her for all she did, and in a really quick turnaround.
Rudy Whitehurst
Allyssa was great to work with!
I loved our vacation! She seamlessly helped us reschedule in an hour(probably less)as hurricane Milton altered our travel plans. Not to mention all the great tips and tricks she provided about Disney world.
