It's a new year and it is hard to believe that we are now in the second week of 2017!  With the new year, I have decided to scale back my hours a bit and close the office on Sunday's. 

Office hours will now be: 5:30pm - 9pm Monday - Friday and 9am - 9pm Saturday. 

2017 is already off to a great start and the last two weeks have been busy helping clients turn their travel dreams into a reality and preparing for our 2017 group trips. 

I look forward to updating this page more frequently and wish everyone a great year ahead!

Cheers!  Courtney

Back to blogging!  To say that I took a leave of absence would be an understatement.  I have been wanting to blog and talk about everything going on in my travel world but truthfully haven't made it a priority.  I also struggle with what to write, that I consider my writing skills to be subpar and that no one will read this.  So this morning, I have carved out some time and added blogging to my ever growing task list. 

Have you ever wondered how we pick our group trips?  I won't deny that it is a lot like the picture I posted above.  We throw many options on the table,  look at the pros and cons of each destination, travel time to the destination, inclusions for the tour or cruise and most importantly the price point.  While I am an office of one, Mike is instrumental in helping me select destinations, compare itineraries, crunch numbers and produce flyers to help promote the next great adventure. 

For 2016, we still have space available for our Great Italian Cities adventure!  Space for this group will close on July 23rd, so if Italy is on the top of your bucket list now is a great time to join us for this adventure. 

I wanted to also use this post to announce our 2017 groups!  Most years we only offer one group but 2017 we will have two great opportunities!  Up first will be our return to Caribbean cruising!  We haven't escorted a cruise group in a few years and I love that a cruise allows us time to travel with our group but also have some downtime that a land tour might not always offer.  We have chosen a great itinerary on Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas for a 9 night adventure.  Full details are over on our promotion page!

Our second group offering for 2017 will be something we have never done before.  We will travel to Albuquerque, New Mexico for the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta!   This will be a four night escorted tour departing the first week of October 2017.  We are still putting the final touches on the itinerary and hope to roll out complete details in the coming weeks. 

Stay tuned for new posts coming your way soon!

Welcome to our new website!  I am thrilled to launch this beautiful new site and also start back blogging on a regular basis.  Being our ninth year in business, I thought it was time for a bit of a facelift!  So, over the last few months I have been working with Katie Kelley of Kathleen Kelley Designs to develop a new website and I am super excited to share it with all of our travelers or anyone that may be interested in travel. 

In the coming weeks look for additional photos to be posted and I will start sharing on the blog as well!  Thanks for visiting our website!
