Specializing in Family and Friends Travel

I raised my family about 1 mile north of Disneyland in Anaheim and my sons grew up feeling that Disneyland was their playground. Over the years we traveled our area on getaways, and on longer trips, we explored Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Napa and San Francisco. I love California and its byways. My major in college was French. So I studied the culture, geography, and history as well as the language of France. It will always be my favorite European country and I love to send clients there. Italy is on everyone's shortlist of countries to visit, and it is on mine too. I've been many times and still am so looking forward to my next visit. I've sent many clients to Italy and everyone loves it. A cruise is one good way to see Italy as well as many other parts of the world. A client favorite is Alaska! Alaska is the favorite request of my clients, and a Celebrity Cruise to Alaska checks all the boxes that they are looking for!

Having Fun in the Evening onboard!
Just Cruisin!
     My first cruise was wonderful, everything was new and thrilling. I remember flying from Los Angeles to Mexico City and taking a bus to Acapulco, arriving there at about 9Pm. There was music every where, and the ship was scheduled to depart Acapulco at 2:00am. I found something to eat and went to bed exhausted. The next thing I knew, I was w...

St. Emilion, authentic village in Bordeaux Region
Paris, Normandy Beaches, Bordeaux
   Once you see Paris at night, you will understand why it is called the City of Light. And, most impressive are the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe. The Arc sits at the top of the Champs Elysee, so as you stroll, shop or sip your way along that beautiful boulevard, the Arc's glow is ever present.    For me, one ...

    Excellent cruise advisor.

    Amazing trip
    Reviewed By Kevin - Yorba Linda | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
    She’s amazing! She’s gone above and beyond several times, from helping us get an additional excursion on our cruise to quantifying how much we could recoup if we had to postpone it.

    Reviewed By Dorie - Green Valley, Arizona | Traveled to Los Cabos ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
    Jerrie has gone above and beyond to accommodate us on our latest trip which involved 6 of us. Three of us came from Tucson and three came from Ohio so that was tricky to plan and get us to our resort within 30 minutes of each other arriving !!!!
    Jerrie McLaughlin responded
    "Thanks so much Dorie! It's such a pleasure working with you. I really appreciate your keeping me in the loop during your relaxing vacation in Los Cabos. Your whale pictures were exceptional!"
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    She pays close attention to our parameters
    Reviewed By First Class - Colorado | Traveled to Paris ~ France ~ Europe
    I have used Jerrie for all my travel experiences for more than a decade. She has always put together great experiences for my husband and I. In one case, I was told by another agent that "you can't get there on a train from here", but she found that it WAS possible! They loaded the train into a ferry. So cool!
    Jerrie McLaughlin responded
    "Thanks Sue, I appreciate the kind words and I'm always happy to work with you."
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
