Coasters & Castles Travel- Barry Branaugh

I plan vacations for people who want new life experiences, to create lifelong memories, and find the hidden gems the world has to offer.

Travel has always been a part of my life. Growing up, my family took trips around the U.S., sparking my love for exploring new places and cultures. In 2012, I joined my daughter on a school trip to Scotland, England, and France, and I was hooked. With over 32 years as a high school Social Studies and Language Arts teacher, I've taught about global history, deepening my passion for travel. A stando

ut moment was visiting Omaha Beach in Normandy, reflecting on the D-Day landing. In 2016, I helped plan my mother’s dream trip to Ireland and the UK for our family. That experience inspired me to pursue a career helping others plan their travels. I love combining history, culture, and relaxation in travel. I’ve journeyed through Central Europe, Scotland, Ireland, and beyond, enjoying everything from whiskey tastings to tropical getaways like a Princess Cruise to the Mexican Riviera and a week in Belize. I've traveled to Canada, Mexico, Belize, Ireland, the UK, France, Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Spain, and Portugal. I focus on creating personalized trips that meet both group and individual needs. It is truly and honor and pleasure to be able to help people reach their travel goals!
