All-inclusive Travel Expert

I am here to help you craft unforgettable escapes to the sunny shores of Mexico and the Caribbean. With a passion for exploration and a knack for all-inclusive getaways, I can help turn your travel dreams into reality.


My love for travel started as young as I can remember.  Growing up on the east coast, we spent every summer "down the shore" either in NJ, MD or SC.  Florida was a big destination as well, taking long car rides from PA down the interstate stopping at all the fun places along the way to Disney World and beyond.  My first trip out of the US was to Cancun in 1992 and I was hooked.  I've since traveled to Mexico multiple times as well as the Caribbean, Europe and as far away as Japan. This is a dream job for me and I look forward to helping curate the perfect trip to meet your needs and fulfill your dreams.

My Reviews

Fabulous trip planning and customer service!
Kristin was great with planning our flight and hotel to London and France. She listened to our wants and needs and met them! During our trip our flight was delayed going to London, which caused us to miss our connecting flight. She rebooked us so that we arrived within a couple hours of our original time. Our return flight out of Paris was delayed 3 hours and she worked to find another flight if we miss our connection even though she was in a totally different time zone! Thanks for working your magic with our flights!

First trip to Florida!
I reached out to Kristen for a last minute trip for my husband’s company. She was able to book our flights, car rental, and Disney World trip in just a couple of days. She made sure that the timing of the flights were most convenient for our family with 3 kids. She is thorough and quick. Definitely plan on keeping Kristen in my contact list for future vacations.
