Florida Travel Agent Specialist

Disneyworld with the Family
Disneyworld with the Family

It's great to serve as a travel agent professional for Florida, as I am also a Disney travel specialist for Disney World. You can also ask me about scheduling itineraries for area attractions such as Duck Key, Islamorada, Key West, and Kissimmee. I traveled to Disney World when COVID-19 restrictions were in force, and I can say it was still a magical experience. Yes, masks were required, but because of the shorter lines,  you only had to wait about 20 minutes to get on a ride. By using the site's app, I was able to make good time and plan accordingly. I can also do the same for you. If your wish is to go to Disney World, I can give you all the recommendations you need for the perfect vacation. While I loved riding the Skyliner at Disney, I discovered the buses were far more efficient. Also, I would recommend seeing the new Star Wars attractions at Hollywood Studios. Besides seeing Disney World, you might have time to visit nearby Kississimee, which is south or Orlando. The city sits next to the shore of Lake Tohopekaliga, simply called Lake Toho. You will love visiting the city's Waterfront Park, with its walking paths and fishing pier.  I can also arrange vacations to Key West, Islamorada, and Duck Key. For instance, Islamorada represents a village made up of the six of the Florida Keys. Known for its coral reefs, Islamorada is home to the Theater of the Sea, where you can take part in dolphin encounters. The area highlights several state parks, one of which includes Lignumvitae Key Botanical State Park, home to a tropical forest. You can also connect with dolphins at Duck Key or plan a resort or cruise vacation to Key West. An island city, Key West is part of the archipelago of the Florida Keys and is situated at the southernmost point of Florida just 90 miles north from Cuba. Known for its pastel-colored conch-type homes, the cruise-ship port destination can also be reached from Florida's mainland by taking the Overseas Highway. Divers and snorkelers alike enjoy planning a Key West holiday. However, you don't have to be an avid diver or snorkeler to appreciate Key West. You can relax on the beach or engage in another water sports activity. If you want to see Florida, I'm the travel agent professional you want to contact. Send me an email or phone me now. Let's start planning your Florida vacation today.

Adventure of a lifetime
Barb planned our trip through the United Kingdom. We started in London and spent a month traveling through Wales, Scotland and Ireland. She created the most amazing itinerary with stays in castles and routed us to so many wonderful spots. Her attention to detail and adding all the extras made our trip truly wonderful. I never had to worry about anything. She was checking on us through our whole trip and whenever we checked in to our location, many of them commented, "Oh yes" we just talked to your travel agent. It was very comforting knowing all was under control and all special requests were filled.

Ireland Dream Trip!
Barb created a wonderful adventure to Ireland. We were nervous about driving so she set us up with rail tours throughout Ireland. It was such a pleasant experience to enjoy the countryside without the stress of driving. We had knowledgeable local tour guides at each city and still had plenty of free time to enjoy the local pubs and music. Barb made sure every detail was taken care of and it was a comfort to know that even being many time zones apart she was always available. It was a great vacation and I will be using her services in the future for all of our travel.

Excellent family vacation to Catalonia
Barb was always willing and ready to respond to our questions and concerns, both during the planning of our trip and while we were on it! She helped us navigate a european vacation with our three small children amid changing COVID restrictions, helping us with trip insurance and ultimately changing our whole flight/car package from Scotland to Spain only three weeks before the trip. We were quite happy with the homes she recommended and booked for us and our flight arrangements.
