Dynamite Travel

08/08/2026

18 years ago, I took my first step into the travel industry, and I had no idea how far that step would take me.

Eighteen years later, I've built Dynamite Travel into a business I'm proud of, survived a pandemic that nearly took the whole industry down with it, earned the title of Travel Advisor of the Year, and helped thousands of clients turn their milestones, celebrations, and long-overdue trips into journeys they'll never forget.

None of it happened by accident, and none of it happened alone.

To every client who trusted me with their vacation, every partner who believed in my vision, and everyone who has followed this journey from the beginning: thank you.

Here's to 18 years, and to everything still ahead.

My Canvas Rebel interview just went live, and the timing couldn't be more perfect!

Tomorrow, I'll be celebrating 18 years in business with Dynamite Travel, and this feature captures so much of the journey that got me here: the leap from professor to full-time entrepreneur, the uncertainty of pushing through a pandemic that nearly took this industry down, and everything that led to being named Travel Advisor of the Year in 2023.

If you've ever wondered what it really takes to build something you believe in, even when the path isn't a straight line, I hope this gives you a little insight, and a little inspiration. Link to the full feature below.

We're excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Dr. Terika L. Haynes. We hope you'll enjoy our conversation with Dr. Terika L. below.

Journey with Dynamite Travel to Alaska!

I've had the opportunity to sail these incredible waters, and no matter how many photos you've seen, nothing compares to standing on deck as glaciers come into view, watching whales surface nearby, or taking in scenery that makes you stop talking for a moment.

That's why I'm excited to invite you to join me in July 2027 aboard Celebrity Solstice for an unforgettable Alaska adventure.

I'm hosting a group cruise tour to Alaska, July 2-9, 2027, and I'd love for you to join me. This cruise will be a full Alaska experience.

We'll embark in Vancouver and sail through some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world, with stops in Sitka, Endicott Arm, Dawes Glacier, Icy Strait Point, Juneau, and Hubbard Glacier, before disembarking in Seward.

For those who want to extend the adventure, there are cruise tour add-ons taking you deeper into Alaska, Denali, Talkeetna, Fairbanks, Alyeska, and more.

Rates start from $947pp, with a $250pp deposit to hold your spot. Drinks AND WiFi are included.

Space in a group like this doesn't last long, so if Alaska has been on your travel wish list, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience it together.
