AmaWaterways ship on the Rhone River
River cruises are a carefree and luxurious way to explore the world, visit new destinations or return to them and have a more immersive experience. I can’t say enough good things about river cruising, and I really encourage anyone who has an interest in Europe to try a river cruise on the Rhine or Danube as your first river cruise.
There are also many options for cruising rivers in France and Portugal, that it’s worth taking a second, third or many more river cruises to enjoy this wonderful mode of travel! Other parts of the world are also ideal for river cruising: the Yangtze in China, the Amazon in Peru, the Chobe in Botswana, the Nile in Egypt, and of course, right here in our own backyard on the Mississippi or through the Pacific Northwest.
To get started, simply contact me with your preferences and time frame. I look forward to working with you!

DAN TWOMEY is a caring, attentive professional Travel Agent who follows through on my requests for information. I have booked 2 long tours with him this year & one for 2020 and one already for 2021. I am able to communicate with him while I am on a ship or at home. I feel loyal to him because of the assistance he has given to me and my husband in the past and for future travel. He is a credit to Cruise Specialists & I am certain is appreciated by his clients!

Dan is a personable professional
Reviewed By Kathleen - Lakewood | Traveled to South Pacific
Dan is a pleasure to work with. He has a terrific sense of humor and is never too busy to listen to a cruise experience or to look up some information about your particular travel issues. If you call him with a question, he will respond the same day if he doesn't have the answer immediately. After our recent cruise, he was reviewing our future cruise documents and called to question whether we had booked two cruises back to back with no possibility of making connections. We had not done so, but were grateful that he caught the error before we were asked for payment.

2024 World Cruise on Regent Mariner
Reviewed By Randall & Nancy Garrett - Boerne, TX | Traveled to World Cruise | Other
A WC was a "Bucket List" thing that we booked with Dan for 2022 but the itinerary was changed and we exited early. We rebooked for 2024 on 3 different lines as a "back-up plan." We ended up choosing the HAL itinerary but we switched back to Regent in mid-November when Dan said he had a suite open up. We felt VERY FORTUNATE to have had Dan as our TA for many years and the trip was marvelous. So much so that we are considering another WC on Regent. We've had another TA in the past and believe Dan is the best. Truly a great guy whom we admire both personally and professionally!

Reviewed By Tiger123 - Kelowna B.C. | Traveled to Tahiti | French Polynesia | South Pacific
I am a new solo traveller which meant paying the single supplement. Dan was able to find me an unobstructed outside cabin which suited my needs and was within my budget. I was on the main level just down from the Atrium which proved to be a great location close to the dining room and activities I wanted to participate in. There was nothing above me so the room was very quiet. Dan made sure I was aware of any changes to the cruise. Whenever I called if he wasn't available he always got back to me in a timely manner. I didn't have any problems during the cruise itself so I didn't need to contact him about anything.

Great advisor
Reviewed By David - Lafayette Hill | Traveled to Europe
Dan helped us put together a river cruise to France with Scenic river cruise company. He was able to get us free tickets to the Lido show in Paris. Scenic has a difficult webpage to navigate and getting information from them is sometimes difficult but Dan was able to work through these barriers. We truly appreciated his persistence.

Professional & Friendly Service
Reviewed By Linda - Myrtle Beach, SC | Traveled to Caribbean
This was a last minute booking as we had to cancel a cruise 24 hours prior to departure due to a gastrointestinal issue on our booked ship. Dan was easy to work with and got us booked on our requested ship & suite within hours. He worked diligently to find flights and a hotel for us. We have been clients with Cruise Specialists for years and will continue to use their services. We do not hesitate recommending them to others.
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

21 cruises on American Cruise Lines
Reviewed By Grandma J - Albuquerque, NM | Traveled to Florida | USA
As seniors, we enjoy small ship cruising within the United States. We discovered American Cruise Lines about fifteen years and continue to like their style. We usually book our net cruise onboard to take advantage of their 15% discount and inform our Cruise Consultant when we return. We have worked with Cruise Specialists for 25 years ;-)
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
