Planning for a trip can be exciting and exhausting.  With all the options and information out there, how do you know if you are doing it right?  Putting the pieces together can be pretty darn complicated.

I have put together the following curated collection of hotels, cruise lines, transportation companies and tour operators which I have worked with, experienced and would recommend.  It is only a small sampling but hopefully can help lead you in the right direction. 

As I’ve worked in the travel industry and been a “professional tourist” for most of my life, I am relatively familiar with what is out there.  If there is a hotel or travel company that you would like an opinion on, send me a message and I will be glad to give you my two cents worth.  It is all about helping to make planning your next adventure simple and efficient.

Keep in mind that my forte is neither budget travel nor ultra-luxury.  I am not a college student on a gap year and (unfortunately) I do not have access to a private plane.  I have traveled Economy, Business Class and First Class and can provide feedback on the benefits of each.  I have also stayed in rooms the size of a bed as well as suites larger than my apartment and can appreciate the variety of options that exist and advise when each is appropriate and worthwhile.
