I have been traveling since I was 9. It started when my mom became a travel agent to make some extra money. During those years, times were tough and we only had my Dad working at the time. I began to learn the "ropes" and developed long standing relationships with some of the top suppliers and executives. As I was traveling and cruising the world, I had some experiences that I really wanted to share with people that I could provide for them and give them what they really wanted. Not only could I plan a vacation of a lifetime full of great memories but also provide outstanding customer service, to be treated like family. As time went on, I built a great rapport, relationships, and a reputation that exceeded all my expectations. I fell in love with traveling and cruising that now I am at my 80th cruise! Cruising is the only way to travel to see Europe, Asia, Mediterranean, Panama Canal, Hawaii and the Caribbean Islands! Its almost like a "sampler" to see which Island you would like to stay on more, and sometimes more cost effective! However, all-inclusive vacations are great too. One price for everything, but only if the weather holds up. I have some great pictures of places I have been and love looking back on them and remembering the good times I have had.

Lisa has been so thoughtful and helpful with planning my cruises. She is quick, effiicient and extremely friendly and conscientious. I have really appreciated her help with our special vacation planning. Our upcoming Mediterranean cruise she booked for us for June 15, 2019 on Celebrity is our 50 th anniversary cruise. I did not tell her this detail and probably should have.

Our agent, Lisa Shindler was very helpful a year ago when we booked our 50th anniversary Panama Canal cruise, and has stayed in touch with us ever since. On our way to the cruise we drove through Tampa, where Lisa was, and she met with us and took us to lunch. Because of Lisa's help and kindness we have looked to Lisa to help us find our next cruise.

I have always booked everything myself but have been exploring the world of travel agencies after reading so much about getting extra value by using them. We bookedwithcostco travel last year. We got the perk of $225 cash back when we got home on a similarly priced cruise when we used Costco travel last year. They were out of our roo category so I started comparing other places. I had talked to Lisa last year & liked her so decided to go with her. She gave me the quote & said the perk with her is $50 onboard credit. I approved it, then the price went up by $100. She said she would request extra onboard credit since it went up that quickly. If that happens I will be bumping up the rating for sure. Lisa was patient, answered all my many questions & if all goes well, I look forward to working with her on future trips

We have already made referrals. I took a photo of our agent's business card so that I can text and email it to friends and family! Lisa provides us with excellent customer service and she is always accessible!
