Cruising Across the Oceans

Many customers ask about the experience of sailing a trans-ocean crossing - either a Transatlantic or Transpacific cruise.  2023 is my year of ocean crossings!  I was fortunate to experience both a Transpacific cruise in the spring and a Transatlantic cruise in the fall!

The best travel agent ever
I have booked several cruises/trip with Terri and have been very pleased with each and every one. I have cruised since 1980 with over 60 cruises and Terri is the first travel agent I have met that has traveled more than me and knows a lot more about things. She pays attention to details and I am always impressed with her professionalism and way that she has to add all those extras to your trip that you didn't even know existed. Terri could not be any better. She is the BEST!!!

Amazing Galapagos - a trip of a lifetime!
Terri was an absolute pleasure to work with! She took all the stress out of traveling and made sure every detail was addressed. You don't have to worry about anything! We booked our first trip with Terri for a trip in Dec 2022 - since then we have booked 2 more. Need we say more!

New Zealand
We feel comfortable with Terri she listens well and when we have questions and she doesn’t know she will find the answer and get back to us and she’s a good communicator.

The Viking Experience
Terri gave us excellent service from booking, special requests, and assistance at the end of our cruise when we needed to contact a Viking agent. She was responsive and efficient with every request we made, and pleasant to deal with at all times. She reminded us of important deadlines and helped with payment details. We had traveling companions, and she was just as attentive to their needs. I would highly recommend using Terri to book your cruises. She has talent and connections that bring results.

Cruise of a Life Time!!!!
Terri was wonderful to work with. Her knowledge of cruising is obvious. We were planning our dream Alaskan cruise with our children and wanted to make sure we did everything right. She helped us chose the cabins, cruise packages and gave us great recommendations for on-shore excursions. I highly recommend Terri to help anyone plan their next cruise vacation. I know who I will be calling next time we will be cruising.
