World Cruise & Hosted Cruise Expert
On a cruise, you’re treated to a special way of life. On a World Cruise — a voyage around the world that lasts several months — that special treatment is elevated in every sense of the imagination. It’s my goal as a World Cruise Consultant to help you find the World Cruise that is right for you. I also specialize in Grand Voyages that showcase specific regions of the world, and love arranging back-to-back river cruises for my clients so they can maximize their time away.
Another one of my specialties is arranging hosted cruises. A hosted cruise is an ideal way to enjoy camaraderie and have an extra layer of reassurance on your cruise by sailing with a Voyage Host provided by our agency, and it’s complimentary. You can read more in my Hosted Cruise bio, below.
It’s my pleasure to listen to you carefully, make recommendations based on your preferences, and utilize the many resources available to me at Cruise Specialists to arrange the perfect getaway!
