Curated by Laura Poe

Specialties: Premium & Luxury Ocean and River Cruises, Land Tours, Expedition Experiences, Multi-Generational Family, Adults-Only, Wellness, and Adventure Travel I love getting to know my clients to understand their preferences so I can design the very best experiences. I take care of all the details from research to booking, checking in with you throughout your trip to ensure everything is going well and connecting when you return to further refine your preferences. As an affiliate of Travel Planners International, I have access to industry leading perks and amenities through the Signature Travel Network as well top tier industry affiliations. As a Top 100 Travel Advisor in North American and Top 10 in North and Central Florida with Virgin Voyages, I have found a special niche in premium cruising. Travel is a passion for many people but it’s also part art and part science. Don’t leave your dream vacation to chance — work with us to create an experience of a lifetime. With high attention to detail, relationships with the best suppliers in the business, as well as communication before, during and after your trip, we go above and beyond for clients. The icing on the cake — We’re able to offer industry leading perks and access to amenities through an established network with Virtuoso and other industry leading partners. From tropical getaways to snowy mountain retreats, we can help plan the perfect trip wherever you’re going. We specialize in learning about our guests preferences and then pairing them with 4 or 5-star accommodations to meet their needs and identifying all the best things to do and places to enjoy while there. When should I start the travel planning process? While we know how to make it work in a pinch, our best work is done with plenty of time to craft the perfect itinerary. Depending on your vacation details, we recommend beginning the planning process 6-12 months in advance. Will pricing be the same as what I see online? When you book with Curated by Laura Poe, you can have confidence that we have access to exclusive industry rates, promotions, and amenities for clients. While we know you can search online booking engines on your own, often we are able to save you money, add a higher value to the trip, or both! We work with best in class suppliers, which allows us to provide you with the VIP treatment and perks you can’t access on your own. What if I need to cancel my travel? We understand that plans change, especially now during the pandemic. We highly recommend booking insurance through one of our trusted partners to ensure you’re covered when things come up so that we can help you navigate the cancellation process if need be. Depending on your specific travel details, you may incur cancellation fees.
