Speciality: Adventure & Destinations for All Ages

I have always wanted to travel. The journey was just as important as the destination. Seeing new things, meeting new people, and having new experiences was a treat. I never envisioned I would get too far from home. Little did I know my future ...

Roatan Adventure & Relaxation Advisor

Honduras has many faces and stories to tell. Visit the ancient ruins of the Mayans at Copan, watch cigar making in Santa Rosa de Copan, and explore the bustling city of Tegucigalpa. After exploring the mainland, catch a flight or ferry to the Bay Islands and explore the largest reef system in the Americas.

Not scuba certified? No problem! Take diving lessons at one of the many schools on island or snorkel from the shore to see the vibrant colors of the local sea life. Take a ride on a kayak, powerboat, or sail to see the island from a new perspective. Explore the bights and cays that sit just yards off the island shore. Canoe through the mangrove to see shrimp and other crustaceans.

Water not our thing? Roatan has a rich history; from British pirates to Spanish control to the present. Traveling the one main road from West to East or reversed is truly a unique experience. There are tropical forests, zip lines, an iguana farm, Garifuna village, and much more to fill your days in this Bay Island. Take a day trip or even stay at one of the less traveled islands for an even slower pace.

When you are ready for Honduras and the Bay Islands, I am ready to help you have a spectacular adventure.

upcoming trip

Marian is both knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She also thinks of things I never would. Which is way you would use a travel agent.

The most unbelievable trip!

Anything less than amazing would be an understatement without Marian my trip wouldn’t have been as productive and organized. With Marian’s help I got to see the most stunning places of Italy. Marian was so easy to work with and was very flexible with time there wasn’t a moment she wasn’t available seriously. I am so grateful that I got to work with Marian and I will not go anywhere else for a travel agent!

Spectacular Family Cruise

Marian made our travel arrangements to take our children on a Caribbean cruise. She picked the correct ship for our 3 children and us. When we needed a little adult time, there were clubs for the children to attend. We are adventuresome, and that was the vibe of our ship. Bravo, Marian, for assessing our needs and matching us up so well.

Thank you for the opportunity to assist in making your family adventure a success. I really knew we had a fit but needed to have a work through. You made my hunch become a reality. I know there will be other family adventures to follow.

Biggest Trip in Retirement

My wife and I are currently having the pleasure of working with Marian on our upcoming two week trip to Italy. We have found that Marian is resourceful, knowledgeable and timely in answering any questions we have. Marian gave us a beginning itinerary and has worked with us to adjust and change it to meet our goals. Her recommendations and expertise has made this process simple and smooth.

Held my hand throughout.

Marian did the impossible - she got a flight that met up with my Australian girlfriend in Frankfurt so we could arrive together. She also kept me calm when not one, but two flights were missed and guided me through the steps to get back on track. Her fee is ridiculously low for the service she supplies. I will use her once again as I have in the past.
