We are a certified Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) under corporate supplier diversity requirements of the Federal, State, and Local governments and many corporations.

In today’s Internet-savvy world, many people choose to take control of their travel plans. And we’ve all heard the horror stories – undisclosed travel times, the luxury hotel suite that was anything but luxurious, the lackluster tour guide that took the luster off the tour experience, or the airfare price found online that was too good to be true but wasn’t.
Some travelers like the risk and adventure of do-it-yourself traveling, but the more discerning traveler knows to let a travel specialist do what they do best.
A travel specialist is your advocate – someone who is accountable for the time and money you are investing. Your travel specialist works for you, not for the hotels, cruise lines, or airlines.
As a proud member of Virtuoso, North America’s most respected network of travel agents, we can offer increased value over other travel agencies, and unparalleled choices that you won’t find anywhere else. Virtuoso travel agencies are the top 1% of travel agencies – local businesses with worldwide connections.
