Puerto Rico a Hidden Gem!

La Parguera
La Parguera

Puerto Rico has always been a favorite destination for me and my family, I think of it as a hidden Gem! Let me explain why. 


Puerto Rico is an exceptional travel destination that offers a rich blend of natural beauty, history, and culture. As a U.S. territory, it provides the convenience of easy travel for Americans without the need for a passport while still delivering the feel of an exotic getaway. The island boasts stunning beaches, lush rainforests, and vibrant coral reefs, making it a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers.


El Yunque National Forest (a must see!), the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System, offers hiking trails, waterfalls, and incredible biodiversity.


Beach lovers will appreciate Flamenco Beach on Culebra Island, often ranked among the world's most beautiful beaches, with its soft white sand and turquoise waters.


Beyond its natural attractions, Puerto Rico has a deep cultural heritage influenced by its indigenous Taino roots, Spanish colonization, and Afro-Caribbean traditions. The capital, San Juan, is home to Old San Juan, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where you can explore centuries-old forts like El Morro and walk along colorful, cobblestone streets.


The island is also famous for its vibrant music, cuisine, and festivals, offering visitors a chance to experience lively salsa dancing, taste delicious mofongo, and immerse themselves in Puerto Rican hospitality.


Additionally, Puerto Rico is home to unique natural wonders like the bioluminescent bays, where glowing organisms light up the water at night, creating a magical experience. Whether you're looking for adventure, history, or relaxation, Puerto Rico offers a rich and diverse travel experience.

Fantastic trip to Kauai
Trust me, Diane knows her stuff on Kauai! She provided my family and I with a wealth of information about the island, including the best times to visit, must-see attractions, and hidden gems that only a seasoned traveler would know.
Our accommodations were outstanding. The amenities were top-notch. Diane also arranged a few excursions that truly made our trip unforgettable. We did a helicopter tour over the Na Pali Coast (highly recommend!) and a kayaking trip down the Wailua River, each activity was seamlessly organized and exceeded my expectations.
Thank you, Diane, for an unforgettable trip! We will be back as soon as we replenish the vacation fund!!

Wonderful world of Disney
Has anyone ever attempted to plan their own trip to Disney? Well, at the very least it can be like a full time job. Luckily a friend referred me to Diane and right off the bat she made it a breeze. From finding the perfect hotel (Floridian) to insider tips on avoiding lines and snagging the best spots for parades, everything was spot on. The kids had a blast, and we couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Her attention to detail made all the difference. Thanks for making our Disney dreams come true! Diane, your expertise turned what could have been a planning nightmare into a dream vacation. Can’t wait to book our next adventure with you!

Your recs for the Pitons -those twin peaks just own the skyline. Hiking them totally worth the sweat. The views were unreal. Saint Lucia is a total win. Can't wait to go back!!

Alaskan
We recently returned from an unforgettable Royal Caribbean cruise to Alaska and we wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks to Diane for organizing such a wonderful trip.
The ship was stunning (ovation of the seas) so many amenities and activities to enjoy. We particularly enjoyed the north star observation capsule, which offered breathtaking views. Your knowledge about the ship, itinerary, and excursions, was exceptional, and we felt well prepared and excited for our trip. Your recommendations for cabin selection and dining options were spot on, and we appreciated all the responses to our questions and concerns.
The shore excursions you helped us select were highlights of our trip. The whale watch in Juneau was our fav! Second place were the glaciers in Skagway.
The combination of Royal Caribbean’s top notch service and your meticulous planning made for such an enjoyable vacation. We felt well taken care of from start to finish, and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel agent!
