Cruises

Ready to embark on the adventure of a lifetime?

I love cruising—there’s nothing like sitting on a balcony, feeling the breeze and hearing the waves. Cruising offers a unique way to see multiple destinations without the hassle of constantly packing and unpacking, and often, the ship itself is part of the adventure with endless dining and entertainment.

With so many options, from ocean to river cruises and different ships within each line, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in! Having sailed on dozens of cruises, I know the best options to match your travel style, whether you’re drawn to top-tier onboard experiences, immersive port visits, or a mix of both.

If you’re curious about cruising, I’d love to help you explore its perks and address any questions or concerns. Click the button below to complete my cruise questionnaire or reach out directly to get started planning your next unforgettable journey.

"We are first time cruisers and Melinda took the time to explain everything to us so that we felt comfortable with our choices. She was always responsive when we had a question. When an unexpected medical issue caused us to cancel our cruise, she was so helpful in taking us through that process. When we are ready to travel again, we will definitely reach out to Melinda!"
