Why Book Your Next Vacation With Me

There are plenty of people walking around calling themselves travel advisors, so before you entrust your vacation to a friend of a friend or an amateur hobbyist, it pays to ask what truly makes an expert. When you work with me as your dedicated Dream Vacations travel advisor, you gain access to an industry powerhouse backed by a nationally recognized brand while enjoying the personalized care of an experienced business owner, who completed rigorous training at our Fort Lauderdale headquarters and additional regular training after that. Choosing to partner with me offers distinct advantages for your next getaway:

 

1. My Services Are 100% Free to You

My services cost you nothing out of pocket. The cruise line or resort compensates me directly to book, service, and manage your reservation, so you get expert assistance and advocacy at zero extra charge.
 

2. I Do More Than Just Booking Vacations, I Travel

My passion is cruising. I have been to most of the North American cruise ports. I have taken over 35 cruises on most of the major cruise lines. I have booked cruises to many of the South American and European cruise ports. So I speak from experience, not just what I have read; however, I also have access to webinars and training from the suppliers too. When booking all-inclusive resorts, I use feedback from clients that I have sent to those areas, plus some of the cruise ports are also homes to all-inclusive resorts, so I have been able to experience those areas.

3. Advanced Professional Tools

The booking and planning tools provided to me by Dream Vacations and major cruise lines are significantly more powerful and detailed than anything available to consumers online, allowing me to view exact stateroom schematics, deck plans, and inventory nuances.

4. I Work for You, Not the Suppliers

I am completely independent of any single travel supplier. This gives me the freedom to provide true, objective comparisons between options and introduce you to alternative itineraries, ships, or resorts you might not have known about.

5. One Dedicated Point of Contact

You never have to navigate a massive corporate call center or deal with a representative who knows nothing about you. You have a single, direct contact point for every moving part of your trip, and I am always available whenever a question or need arises.

6. Official Pricing Plus Exclusive Perks

Because I book directly with the cruise line, your base pricing is set by the line and is identical whether you book direct or through my agency. However, I occasionally have access to exclusive pricing, cabin upgrades, special onboard perks, and group block pricing—some of which cannot be advertised online and will never be offered with a direct booking.
