“Travel has taken me across the United States and far beyond, from cruising the turquoise waters of the Caribbean to exploring the stunning coastlines of Alaska and Europe. I’ve also sailed on expedition vessels, experiencing destinations in a more immersive and adventurous way. These journeys allow me to share firsthand knowledge and help you choose the travel experiences that are perfect for you.”— Janelle, Travel Advisor

FROM THE PEOPLE WHO’VE BEEN THERE
I’ve used Janelle for planning family vacations. A cruise for 11 of my family members was the smoothest travel arrangements I’ve ever had. She worked hard to get the best fares and accommodated travel needs. I will use her for all my future travels.
Janelle booked a cruise for my wife and I. She handled everything perfectly. We knew right where to go and what to bring and the entire trip was excellent! Logistics were smooth. We will definitely use her for our next trip!
It was our first cruise. We had a GREAT time. Janelle did a terrific job selecting the right time and ship.
