Booking Trips Around the World

There's nothing I love more than a good plan. For years, I have been creating travel itineraries for my family and friends as well as their family members and friends. I design the plan, and then I always create a back up plan just in case one of the original ideas falls through.

Recognizing my passion for traveling and for helping others see the world, I decided to take the next step forward and become a professional travel agent. I specialize in booking trips throughout the United States and Europe, and my favorite destinations include:

  • New York City — New York City is the largest city in the country, and there's so much to see and do when you visit. I like to create personalized itineraries for the city based on my travelers' interests.
  • Washington D.C. — The nation's capital city is an iconic vacation destination. I enjoy creating itineraries that include notable attractions, such as the White House and the Lincoln Memorial, as well as lesser-known museums and educational experiences.
  • Florida — Florida is the perfect family-friendly destination because it is filled with sunshine, beaches and theme parks. I'm a Disney College of Knowledge graduate, and can create customized vacation packages for my clients who want to meet Mickey Mouse.
  • London, England - from history to art to outdoor adventures to amazing shopping and dining -- there is something for everyone here. This is my personal favorite. I love starting from scratch and creating the best itinerary so that you can get a feel for the real London
  • Paris, France - From the most recognized monument in the world (the Eiffel Tower) to Disneyland Paris - this is a bucket list location for many! I travel here frequently and can help give you the ins and out of the city. 

I believe that I am a valuable resource to my clients because not only am I trained as a professional travel agent, but I also am an experienced traveler. I have traveled independently on my own, I have booked trips and brought my own young son with me, and I have participated in organized group trips. These personal experiences allow me to be a knowledgeable guide for any type of traveler.

Take advantage of this moment, and book your next vacation with me. You won't regret investing in quality time with the people you love the most.

Expanding My Horizons

Where I am most comfortable at

Before becoming an agent I preferred major cities, but now I have become certified in multiple All-Inclusive brands and locations and around half of my bookings come from All-Inclusive vacations in the Caribbean and Mexico.

Along with becoming certified, I have also traveled to a variety of new locations to experience what different countries and brands have to offer. While traveling to new places I mix it up and spend time at the properties and venturing out into the local towns/villages to connect with the culture.

I love that I have become a more rounded traveler and that I am able to help people realize that traveling can be done on any budget, regardless of where their heart is leading them.

Every trip Samantha has booked for my family (3 and working on the 4th) has been flawless! She takes great care of us and is very knowledgeable! She responds promptly, checks on us while we are gone, and ensures we have the best accommodations! Highly recommend!

Best Travel Experience Ever!!!
Reviewed By Wandering But Not Lost - Bastrop, Lousiana | Traveled to Paris ~ France ~ Europe
Wish there were 10 stars! Samantha went above and beyond making sure we got the best deals with all of the perks. She was available 24-7, before, during and after, to assist or just checked in to see how things were going!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Best experience you’ll ever have!
Reviewed By Andrea - Hampton, Ga | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
If your goal is to take a vacation based on your wants, needs, didn’t know you needs & more, Samantha is the TA for you! Between making everything age appropriate for our 3 year old, letting me change my mind a thousand times & making sure every detail is perfect she has made our vacations beyond enjoyable! I wish I could give her more stars, honestly! We have booked Jamaica, Disney, Vegas & Turks & Caicos with Sam, all very different yet she made them all perfect! Each time we have presented Samantha with our “must haves”, projected dates, price range & interests and she has found the best fit for our family. After booking she has been able to take us through every step of the planning process making sure every aspect is how we imagined. While traveling she monitors our flight, our testing, literally everything! Upon arrival she once again checks in on us, helps with reservations & excursions, communicates with the location as necessary. I seriously can not recommend her enough.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Magical Moments
Reviewed By Krysti - Delhi, LA | Traveled to Florida ~ USA
There are not enough words to express my gratitude for Samantha! She made our daughter's graduation trip a dream come true! Even while on a trip herself she woke up early to help make our day magical! As someone who overthinks and worries over everything, I 100% recommend her. The stress of traveling was lifted, and my family and I just let her do what she does best!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing trip to Rivieria Maya!!
Reviewed By Karen - Monroe, LA | Traveled to Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Samantha took such great care of us for our trip to Riviera Maya! She was in constant contact with us throughout the whole trip and I knew if we had any issues, she would take care of them. The process of booking the trip was so easy and I appreciated all the options she gave us! I have referred friends to her since then!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
