 As a travel advisor, my passion is helping others explore the incredible world beyond it. Whether you're planning your honeymoon, a family vacation, a destination wedding, or your first solo adventure, I'm here to ensure that your trip is everything you’ve dreamed of—and more.

 

  One of the key things that sets me apart is my commitment to really listening to you. I believe that every great trip starts with understanding what you want. I ask thoughtful questions to get to know your travel style, interests, and budget, so I can tailor my recommendations to fit your specific needs. Whether you're a first-time traveler nervous about your adventure or a seasoned cruiser looking for your next great voyage, I’ll guide you through every step, from destination selection to booking, with 

My goal is always to come in under budget without sacrificing the experience. I’ll show you options that fit your price point and make sure you know exactly what you're getting. I also believe in educating my clients. I’ll share everything you need to know about your destination, including local customs, must-see spots, and hidden gems. You’ll feel confident and informed, ready to embark on a trip that meets your expectations—and exceeds them. 

 One destination I absolutely love to book is Antigua and Barbuda. After being hosted by the island’s Tourism Board, I had the opportunity to tour the entire island, visiting a range of resorts and beaches. Antigua is a beach lover’s dream, with 365 beaches to explore, and offers resort options for every type of traveler. Whether you're a honeymooner looking for a romantic getaway, a family needing a kid-friendly resort, or a solo traveler seeking tranquility, Antigua has something for you. One of my favorite memories was helping a client find an overwater bungalow option in Antigua for a fraction of the price she would have paid in Fiji or the Maldives. She was thrilled, and I love being able to deliver that kind of personalized service.

 I'm a certified specialist in Antigua and Barbuda, Hawaii, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Mexico, Funjet Vacations, Virgin Voyages, and many more. I also hold a degree in Travel & Tourism, so you can trust that I have both the knowledge and experience to handle your travel plans with precision and care.

Building relationships with my clients is the best part of my job. I get to know you, not just as a traveler, but as a person. That bond makes the planning process enjoyable, and many of my clients become lifelong friends. I travel extensively and use my firsthand experience to recommend the best spots for you.

For example, when a couple contracted COVID-19 during their honeymoon in St. Lucia, I worked closely with the resort and tour operator to ensure they received the care they needed, from arranging doctor visits to coordinating their safe return home. It’s this level of personal service that I’m proud to offer every client.

When I'm not traveling, I enjoy exploring local farmers' markets, attending music festivals, and trying new restaurants in Chicago. And while I love adventure, sometimes my favorite thing to do is just relax at home. 

Let me help you plan your next unforgettable journey, contact me today!

Making My Way Through Cabo San Lucas

Can you say Cabo San Lucas!! What an amazing destination to visit and vacation in. I first visited Cabo back over 10 years ago and fell in love with it.

My husbands first and greatest trip so far!
Veronica is a well rounded traveler with great expertise. She is quite knowledgeable and does accurate legwork for the best deals, airline and resort rooms. I was nothing but pleased and amazed with her business and professional savviness.

OUR 40th Birthday
Veronica was exceptional when it came to communication and professionalism. She booked 7 DIFFICULT (LOL) women on a 4 day trip to JAMAICA! Veronica remained professional and optimistic when it came to our last minute questions and changes. She provided options for us to choose from and she made sure we understood the process. I really appreciated her efforts and her going the extra mile. By the way JAMAICA for our 40th was amazing! The resort we chose wasn't the best but Veronica explained that to us in the beginning that we also had other options. I would definitely be using Veronica in the near future for my travel needs.
