🚢 My Last Ship Tour of the Season! 🚢

And what a season it has been! I’ve been lucky enough to step aboard some pretty amazing ships this year, and today I wrapped things up with the beautiful Majestic Princess, right here in the Port of Halifax! ⚓️

Majestic Princess first set sail in 2017 and underwent a refurbishment in 2025. And I have to say, I was impressed from the moment I walked onboard!

The first thing that caught my eye was the stunning atrium! 😍 And even better, it was all decorated for Halloween! 🎃👻 Such a fun touch!

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to tour any cabins today because the ship was sailing full. But we did get to explore the common areas, and I really liked what I saw!

🚢 A few fun facts about Majestic Princess:

⚓️ She can accommodate approximately 3,560 guests, with around 1,346 crew members looking after everyone.

⚓️ She’s over 1,000 feet long with 19 decks!

🍽️ Plenty of dining options, from casual bites and pizza to specialty restaurants like Crown Grill Steakhouse.

🍹 Beautiful lounges and bars where you can enjoy a cocktail, listen to music, or just sit back and relax.

🏊‍♀️ Spacious pool areas, hot tubs, and the Hollywood Pool Club, which has a covered pool area. Perfect for those days when the weather isn’t cooperating!

🎬 Movies Under the Stars, where you can enjoy a movie on the big screen while relaxing poolside.

🌊 The SeaWalk, a glass-floored walkway extending out over the ocean. Not sure that’s for everyone afraid of heights! 😂

🎭 Live entertainment, theatre productions, a casino, and plenty of activities throughout the ship.

One thing I really noticed was how well laid out the common areas were. There were so many places to sit, relax, enjoy a drink, or just people-watch. And let’s be honest, people-watching on a cruise ship can be some pretty good entertainment! 😂🍹

The pool areas were spacious, the ship had a really nice flow to it, and I have to give a special shout-out to the pizza because it was on point! 🍕😋

But what really stood out to me was the overall atmosphere.

Not everyone wants waterslides, go-karts, zip lines, and a million things happening around them while they’re on vacation.

Sometimes you just want a beautiful ship, good food, a comfortable spot to relax, some entertainment in the evening, and the chance to actually unwind.

And that’s exactly the vibe I got from Majestic Princess. ❤️

This is a ship I would definitely suggest to someone looking for a more relaxed cruising experience without giving up the amenities of a larger ship.

One of my favourite things about being a travel advisor is getting to experience these ships firsthand. Pictures and brochures are great, but actually walking around a ship gives you a completely different perspective.

And after touring so many different ships this season, one thing I’ve learned is that there really is a cruise ship for everyone. It’s just about finding the right one for you!

So tell me…

Are you the type who wants all the bells and whistles on a cruise, or are you happy with a cocktail, a comfy chair, some good food, and an ocean view? 🍹🌊

Because I think I’m becoming a little more of the second one! 😂

✈️🌴 MORE VACATIONS BOOKED THIS MONTH! ⛳🚢

Another busy week of getting some amazing clients booked for their vacations! And once again, two completely different kinds of trips!

⛳🌴 FIRST UP… PUNTA CANA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC!

This one has been in the works for a while, but we finally have everyone booked!

20 golfers and 2 amazing wives are heading to Iberostar Waves Punta Cana for a full week of golf, sunshine and probably a little friendly competition! 😂

I have a feeling there might be a few stories coming home from this trip!

They'll be enjoying a beautiful beachfront all-inclusive resort, with access to the nearby Bávaro Golf Club, an 18-hole course designed by P.B. Dye.

And for the two ladies who aren't spending their days on the golf course? I'm thinking beach chairs, sunshine and a few cocktails sound like a pretty great plan! 🍹☀️

Organizing a group of 22 people takes some planning, coordinating and a whole lot of emails, but seeing it all come together makes it worth it!

🚢🥂 NEXT UP… A MILESTONE BIRTHDAY AT SEA!

An amazing couple is going to be celebrating a very special milestone birthday aboard the beautiful Star Princess! 🎂❤️

And what a way to celebrate!

Star Princess is one of the newest ships in the Princess Cruises fleet, with beautiful spaces, incredible dining options, entertainment and plenty of places to sit back with a cocktail and watch the ocean go by.

There's just something about celebrating a special occasion on a cruise. Unpack once, enjoy different destinations and let someone else do the cooking and cleaning! Now THAT sounds like a birthday present to me! 😂🥂

I love that my clients are choosing to celebrate life's big moments by making memories instead of collecting more stuff.

❤️ This is what I love about being a travel agent.

One group is getting ready to hit the golf course in Punta Cana, while another couple is preparing to celebrate a special birthday at sea.

Different vacations, different reasons for travelling, but all about making memories!

A huge thank you to my clients for trusting me with your travel plans. Whether it's coordinating 22 people or planning something special for two, I love being part of it!

Now tell me… would you rather spend a week golfing in the Caribbean ⛳ or celebrating aboard a beautiful cruise ship? 🚢🍹

🌴☀️ WHO'S READY FOR A FAMILY VACATION IN PUNTA CANA? 💦🍹

If your kids love water parks, swimming pools and having fun in the sun, this one might be worth a look!

🏝️ Lopesan Splash Cove Resort, Spa & Casino

✈️ Departing Toronto with Air Canada Vacations
📅 April 11–18, 2027
🌴 7 nights, all-inclusive

Now, let's talk about why the kids might LOVE this one! 😍

💦 Water park fun, with slides and splash areas to keep the kids entertained.

🏊 Beautiful swimming pools for cooling off after a day in the sunshine.

🏖️ Beach time! Because who doesn't love a little sand between their toes?

🍕 All-inclusive dining, so nobody has to worry about cooking, dishes or hearing "What's for supper?" every night! 😂

🎉 Family-friendly activities and entertainment to keep everyone busy.

🌴 And hopefully a little relaxation for Mom and Dad too!

I always say, a great family vacation is one where the kids have so much fun they're exhausted by bedtime, and the parents actually get to enjoy themselves too! 😂❤️

✈️🌴 WHAT DID I BOOK THIS WEEKEND? 🏰✨

It was a busy weekend booking vacations, and I have to say, these two bookings couldn't be more different! But both have me so excited for my clients! ❤️

🌴🍹 First up… CANCUN, MEXICO!

I have 6 amazing ladies heading to the beautiful Riu Palace Las Americas for a well-deserved girls' getaway!

And let me tell you, these ladies are going to have a fantastic time!

A little about their resort:

☀️ Adults-only, so no little ones running around the pool!

🏖️ Beautiful beachfront location with gorgeous Caribbean water.

🍹 Three swimming pools, including infinity pools and a swim-up bar. Because who doesn't love a cocktail without having to leave the pool?

🍽️ Plenty of dining options, including Italian, Mexican, Japanese and a steakhouse.

🥂 24-hour all-inclusive, so the food and drinks are taken care of!

🎶 Live entertainment, nightly shows and access to the famous RIU themed parties at nearby Riu Caribe.

🛍️ Located in Cancun's Hotel Zone, close to shopping and nightlife.

I have a feeling there will be lots of laughs, cocktails and memories made on this trip! 🍹😂

🏰✨ Next up… A FIRST TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD!

Now this one makes my heart happy. ❤️

I booked a Disney vacation for a family, where the grandparents are taking their granddaughter to experience the magic of Disney for the very first time!

How special is that?!

There's something about a child's first Disney trip. Seeing Cinderella's Castle, meeting their favourite characters, experiencing the rides and watching their face light up when they realize they're actually at Disney World.

But what makes this one even more special is that her grandparents get to experience all those firsts right alongside her. 🥹❤️

Those are the memories that will stay with them forever.

And THAT is one of my favourite parts of being a travel agent.

One booking is six ladies heading off for sunshine, cocktails and some girl time. The other is a family getting ready to experience a little Disney magic together.

Two completely different vacations, but both are about the same thing… making memories with the people you love. ❤️

Thank you to my clients for trusting me with your vacations. It truly means so much!

Now I'm curious… would you choose a girls' getaway to Mexico 🍹 or a magical trip to Disney? 🏰

𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 + 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲? 𝗬𝗲𝘀, 𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲!

A little exploring. A little adventure. Then a whole lot of slowing down.

If you love the idea of Europe but also want time to put your feet up, this Portugal getaway might be your perfect match!

Start with 𝟯 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝗯𝗼𝗻, wandering colourful streets, hopping aboard the iconic yellow trams, and lingering over fresh seafood and a glass of w**e. Explore at your own pace, with plenty of café stops along the way.

Then, hop aboard a 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗴𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗲 for 𝟱 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 by the beach.

Your agenda? Beach or pool. Cocktail or coffee. Head out to explore the coastline, or settle into a lounger and stay awhile.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗜 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗿𝘆! You get the culture, food and exploring that make Europe so special, with time built in to actually relax before heading home.

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲𝘀:

• Return flights from Halifax
• 3 nights in Lisbon with daily breakfast
• A 24 hour Lisbon Card for exploring the city
• First class train travel to the Algarve
• 5 nights at an all inclusive beachfront resort
• Airport and resort transfers

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀:

• 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟭𝟭 𝗼𝗿 𝟭𝟴, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳: $𝟯,𝟮𝟳𝟵 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻

Beautiful scenery, amazing food, so much character, and excellent value for a European getaway!

And with this trip, you don’t have to choose between exploring and relaxing. You have time for both!

Another cruise ship tour in the books! 🚢💙

I was so excited to have the opportunity to tour another cruise ship! One of my favourite things about being a travel advisor is getting to experience these ships firsthand. Pictures and videos are great, but actually stepping onboard gives me a much better idea of what I’m recommending to my clients.

This time, it was the Sapphire Princess, and I have to say, she did not disappoint!

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from a ship her age, but I was pleasantly surprised! Yes, there were a few areas that showed their age and could use a little updating, but the ship was incredibly clean and so well maintained. You can tell they take pride in keeping her looking her best.

The open spaces were absolutely stunning! I loved how spacious and inviting everything felt. And can we talk about the food? Everything we tried was delicious, and of course, I had to sample the ice cream! 🍦😂

The crew were another highlight. Everyone we encountered was so sweet, welcoming and genuinely seemed happy to have us onboard.

One thing I’m learning from touring different cruise lines is that every ship has its own personality. Bigger and newer doesn’t always mean better. Sometimes it’s the atmosphere, the service and those little details that make a ship special.

I’m so glad I had the opportunity to see Sapphire Princess for myself. It’s another ship I can now confidently talk about when helping clients plan their next cruise.

Have you ever sailed with Princess Cruises? I’d love to hear what you thought! 🚢💕

✈️ A little update from me! ❤️

If you’re waiting to hear back from me, I promise I haven’t forgotten about you! 🥰

It’s shaping up to be another busy week over here, and with me heading back to my full-time job next week, I’m working hard to get caught up on all your travel requests.

Right now, new inquiries are taking approximately 48–72 hours for a response. I’m just one person juggling two jobs, a family, and a love for helping you plan amazing vacations! 😂✈️

I truly appreciate your patience and understanding. I want to make sure I’m giving each client the time and attention they deserve, rather than rushing through your vacation plans.

Thank you for keeping me busy, trusting me with your travels, and supporting my little travel business. It really does mean so much! ❤️🌴

And don’t worry, if you’ve messaged me, I’ll be in touch as soon as I can!

🍁🧡 Happy Thanksgiving, to my Canadian followers ! 🦃🍂

Today is a day to slow down, enjoy the little things, eat way too much turkey, and spend time with the people who mean the most to us. ❤️

I’m feeling especially thankful this year for my family, my friends, and all the wonderful people who have supported me along the way.

To everyone who has trusted me with their travel plans, recommended me to a friend, shared my posts, or simply followed along on my adventures, THANK YOU! It truly means more than you know. 🧡

Whether you’re spending today surrounded by family, celebrating with friends, travelling somewhere special, or enjoying a quiet day at home, I hope your heart is full, your belly is fuller, and you have plenty to be thankful for.

Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter, and maybe an extra slice of pumpkin pie! 🥧🍁

🌴 Next stop on my Mexico hotel tour… TRS Yucatan! 🌴

Now, this is a resort that knows how to make you feel special!

TRS Yucatan is the adults-only luxury section of the Grand Palladium complex in Riviera Maya, and let me tell you, this property is absolutely beautiful! 😍

The first thing I noticed was how lush everything was. Stunning tropical greenery everywhere you looked. It really gives you that feeling of being tucked away in a tropical paradise.

But what really stood out to me? The SERVICE!

From the moment you arrive, it’s all about YOU. The staff genuinely want to make sure you’re happy, comfortable and have everything you need. They really go out of their way to make your vacation special.

And let’s talk about food allergies and intolerances for a minute. I have NEVER been asked so many questions about dietary restrictions at a resort! 😂 And I mean that in the best possible way. They really take it seriously and want to make sure you’re looked after. That impressed me!

Now, let’s talk about our room. We had our own private little plunge pool, and I’m not going to lie, we had SO much fun with it! 😂 There’s just something about having your own little pool to jump into whenever you feel like it.

A few other things worth mentioning:

🌴 Adults-only luxury with a more relaxed, upscale atmosphere.

🍹 Butler service to help make your stay that much easier.

🍽️ À la carte dining with some fantastic options, plus access to additional restaurants throughout the Grand Palladium complex.

🏖️ Access to the larger resort complex, so you can enjoy more pools, entertainment and activities while still having your adults-only retreat to come back to.

💦 Swim-up and private pool suite options for those who love a little extra luxury.

🚙 Golf cart transportation! This is a big one because the property is HUGE! They have golf carts to shuttle guests around the complex, making it easy to get from one resort to another, head out for dinner or explore. Trust me, your feet will appreciate this! 😂

What I really liked about TRS Yucatan was that you get the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the quieter adults-only atmosphere or venture out and explore the other resorts within the Grand Palladium complex.

Would I recommend this resort? Absolutely! Especially for couples looking for a romantic getaway or adults who appreciate great service and a beautiful tropical setting.

One thing to keep in mind is that this is a large resort complex. So if you prefer a small, intimate resort where everything is just steps away, this might not be your first choice. But with the golf carts available, getting around is much easier!

And seriously, that little private plunge pool was definitely a highlight for me! 😂

So tell me… would you rather have your own private plunge pool or a swim-up suite? 🌴🍹
