Travel Expert

Tim Kersting

I am a travel agent who works with family and friend groups to create memorable experiences and maximize their time together on the most luxurious cruise vacations that the Caribbean and Mexican Riviera have to offer. I am passionate about curating organic opportunities for your group to deepen relationships and create life-long memories. Arranging travel, to me, is like putting together the most rewarding puzzle, and the prize is hearing that my clients had the vacation that they had been envisioning. I'd love the opportunity to match you up with your perfect vacation experience. My general specialty is Luxury cruising and family group cruising. I also enjoy working with my clients by matching them up with my all-inclusive resort partners. My goal is to guide you from an idea to planning a vacation and coordinating the various details, through to the departing airport toward the trip of a lifetime. I'd love to become your trusted travel advisor, let's talk and see if we work well together.

Having been raised by what I affectionately call a tree-hugger, I care very much about leaving a small carbon footprint so I most especially enjoy 'eco-tourism', but am not opposed to being pampered. ·I love backpacking and exploring. ·As a lifelong resident of northern California, I've probably been to Yosemite National Park 100+ times in over 40 years. ·Spending a summer living in Hawaii with friends as a teen was my first time on an airplane and when the travel bug began. I've been back 7 times since then. ·I will always love road trips and have been on more than I can count, even though Travel Agents have access to the world's most exotic resorts and travel itineraries. ·Cruising is a great way to enjoy the world and get spoiled at the same time, my wife and I love to cruise and do it as often as we can. My favorite ship is the Royal Caribbean Oasis of The Seas, but I can't wait to see the Icon of the Seas (world's largest cruise ship). One of my favorite vacations is when my grandma sent me and a number of my cousins and aunts and uncles on a cruise...it was so eye-opening to see what a true vacation was like. ·By far the most impactful trip I have taken is 2 weeks in South Africa. To see the third world and Western civilization clash is something everyone should experience. Talk about having a greater appreciation for everything! ·My wife and I love Mexico and we go as often as we can find time to go. From the Baha coast to the Mexicali dunes, of course, we can't resist a great deal down in the Mexican Riviera. I hope I can bring you in touch with your travel passion as we create your adventures together.
