Independent Travel Consultant
I am excited to work with people from all walks of life to help them plan travels that will bring joy to their lives. I am an experienced traveler, domestically and internationally. I have traveled with family members, with friends, with my wife and now with our children! Travel and the experiences that I've had around the country and abroad have brought great happiness to my life and I want to share my knowledge and planning skills with others to help them find that same happiness. Travel experiences create bonds and form some of our most cherished memories. I am here to help you create memories that will last a life time!
As a vacationer, I've been all over the map and have travelled to a variety of destinations. Here's a list of some of my favorite experiences.
-Disney World Vacations - I have been to Disney World many times, the most recent being in March 2023! Our latest Disney adventure included two little ones in tow along with extended family members where special memories were made! Disney is a place for everyone, young and old, with kids, without kids, with a group or just your family. I've enjoyed all of my travels to the Happiest Place on Earth! As a graduate of the College of Disney Knowledge I look forward to helping you plan your next Disney Vacation!
-France & Spain - My Wife and I took a romantic journey through France and Spain together in 2018. We landed in Paris and hopped a train to Bordeaux to take in the iconic wine destination city and its beautiful Chateaus. Then we flew down to the Mediterranean beach town of Marbella Spain. Enjoyed some rest and relaxation as well as a day trip to Sevilla, including the beautiful scenic drive through the Spanish countryside and stops at the Catedral de Sevilla and Plaza De Espana. We also spent time exploring Barcelona, including La Sagrada Familia. We wrapped our trip back in Paris and took in the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triumphe among other things. Coming out of this trip, I only drink French Reds and Spanish Whites!
-Scandinavia - In 2017, my Wife and I travelled with a group of friends to Iceland, Norway and Sweden! Over the span of two weeks we experienced all that we could, filling our itinerary with plenty of sights and experiences, but also balancing that out with relaxation and samplings of the local drink & fare! Some of the highlights were the Blue Lagoon (IS), Gulfoss (IS), Langjokull Glacier (IS), Oslo (NO), Lillehammer (NO), Trolltunga Hike (NO), Bergen (NO), Stockholm (SE). It was an amazing trip and really strengthened friendships that we had with our fellow travelers. What an amazing experience?!
Europe is full of amazing places both natural and man-made. The opportunities are endless! I have a trip to Italy in my sites for the future, and have plenty of interest to experience other European destinations as well. Let me help you and explore your wanderlust, and allow me to book your European Adventure!
-Family Travel / Beach Vacations - Over the years I've been to many beautiful beach destinations. Some of my favorite memories are spending time with friends and family on the beach! Relaxing with a cold drink, listening to some good time tunes and soaking in all the sun we can! Recently, we took a trip to Virginia Beach as a little family in August 2022 and seeing my son have fun playing in the sand and splashing in the water are memories I'll forever cherish. I've also spent time in the Outer Banks NC, Myrtle Beach and Charleston SC Beaches as well as beaches in Florida (Gulf & Atlantic). Internationally I've experienced stays in Mexico, Spain and had a stop by the Bahamas on a cruise. No matter what you're looking for, peaceful and tranquil or a beach town full of all the typical summer fun activities or even an all-inclusive resort stay, I'll be more than happy to help you find your spot to sit in the sand, enjoy the water and take in some rays!
-Sports Travel - I am an avid sports fan. Being a lifetime resident of Western Pennsylvania my allegiances fall with the local Pittsburgh based sports teams and Penn State University (alumni). I attend MLB, NFL, NHL, College Football and College Basketball games both locally and on the road. I have taken in sporting events such as the Super Bowl (XLV - Dallas), MLB Playoffs, B1G Championship Game (Indianapolis), NHL Playoffs and NFL Playoffs, along with regular season events of the aforementioned sports and leagues. Allegiances aside, I am confident that I will be able to help you take your act on the road and show support for your favorite squad! I have a breadth of experience that I'd be happy to share and help you plan your game week itinerary and travel arrangements!
Whenever you're ready to get out and find your happiness in a new or familiar destination, I'll be waiting to help you achieve your goal and fill your heart and mind with joy and memories!
Cheers,
Good Time George
