Italy, Europe, Cruises & Group Travel Specialist

Traveling is more than just seeing new sights. It’s gathering experiences, bonding with your friends and family, and introducing a new culture into your life. Wherever you want to go, I will make it unforgettable!  My love of travel has taken me to several parts of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii), Italy, England, France, Greece, Germany, Central Europe, many Caribbean Islands, Canada, Bermuda, and the Mid East.  I travel both by land and by sea to many far a way place. 

I specialize in European vacations with a focus on Italy. Married to an  Italian-American, we have developed a passion for the old country.  I have cultivated a vast network of contacts in Italy to personally shape your next adventure! I will customize your itinerary so you can focus on your passions. If you want to learn how to cook homemade Italian meals, I will find you a memorable class with a renowned chef! Whether you want to stroll from town to town in Cinque Terre, or stand almost alone in the Sistine Chapel, I can make it happen.  Visit famous museums, or lounge at a seaside resort, have dinner prepared for you en famalia: all of this can be yours!  I will work with you to find the best options.  Additionally you might prefer England with it's royalty and pomp or France and it's romance both offer special opportunities to see and enjoy the wonderful difference that is European Travel.

I want your vacation to be filled with stunning sunsets, heavenly meals, and exciting offerings you won’t get anywhere else!

Booking without a travel agent can be frustrating, and you may miss out on wonderful opportunities. I have a lifetime of experience in Italy, Europe, and beyond, and I will provide you with insider tips to make the most of your vacation. As your personal travel agent, I will:

  • Take care of all bookings including flights, transfers, rooms, and activities
  • Reduce your stress by preparing you for your trip
  • Maximize your time in any destination
  • Provide unique offerings to enhance your destination
  • Be available 24/7 to answer questions or assist you in any way
  • And more!

I love the Tuscany region, and I can recommend exceptional wine tours, dining options, and amazing villages that are often overlooked.

I book for families, couples, and groups of all sizes. Whether you're traveling with a large group or solo for some peaceful time away, I want your trip to be the best it can be. I can also help you prepare for your trip by providing tips and hints along with other fun things so you can dive deep into your dream vacation! If you can dream it, I can book it.

Cruising the Baltic with Barb
Reviewed By Susie - Ashtabula | Traveled to Baltic Sea ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Barb took care of all the incidentals of our wonderful vacation, all we needed to do was get to the airport on time. By taking care of our reservations early we received many complimentary perks from the cruise line. She also arranged a private tour for the three days we spent in Russia which was half the price of the equivalent excursion offered by the cruise line. Barb puts a lot of effort into researching destinations. She also took care of all our dining reservations at the specialty restaurants...coordinating ten people isn't always easy. Barb goes above and beyond for her clients to insure a wonderful experience.

Exciting, fun, easy!
Reviewed By Anne - Shaker Heights, Ohio | Traveled to Cuba ~ Caribbean
Barbara researched, planned, and facilitated a cruise to Cuba for myself and my friend. My friend had never been on a cruise and has always been very involved in planning her extensive travels so I was a little apprehensive about how she would react but Barbara made sure that everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) went off without a hitch! My friend and I were thrilled and the trip was amazing. Thank you Barbara.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Once in a lifetime Family Italy trip
Reviewed By Sandy - Murrieta CA | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Barb was wonderful to work with. She was so patient with us and all our needs in planning our first trip to Italy. We have returned from our trip and it was absolutely wonderful. It went very smoothly with all our tour reservations, flights and lodging which Barb helped to plan for us. I would very highly recommend her services and hope that we will be able to use her services again to plan another trip.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Best travel planner
Reviewed By Scot - Arizona | Traveled to Europe
Barbara is truly an exceptional travel planner. We traveled to Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and Italy in 2019. The trip had 7 air connections, a car rental, 2 train connections, rooms (one included a palace), and limo transfers at each stop. It was like clockwork. The trip was perfectly planned by Barbara.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
