✨ Just Booked: An Epic Alaska Adventure! ✨

Next summer, my clients will embark on an incredible 17-day Alaska land and cruise journey with Princess Cruises!

Their adventure begins in Fairbanks and takes them deep into the heart of Alaska, with stops in Denali, Copper River, and the beautiful Kenai Peninsula. Along the way, they’ll stay at five different Princess Wilderness Lodges, enjoy guided wilderness experiences, and soak in the breathtaking scenery of Alaska’s interior.

One of the highlights? Two unforgettable rail journeys aboard Princess’s famous dome trains, offering panoramic views of some of the most spectacular landscapes in North America.

From Whittier, they’ll board the Discovery Princess and set sail through Alaska’s stunning coastal waters, with opportunities to view glaciers and visits to Icy Strait Point, Juneau, Sitka, and Ketchikan before ending their journey in Vancouver.

I am so excited for them! This truly is one of the best ways to experience Alaska—combining the rugged beauty of the interior with the incredible scenery and wildlife of an Alaska cruise.

Thinking about Alaska in 2027? Now is the time to start planning! Ships, lodges, and the most popular itineraries are already filling up. Whether you’re interested in a cruise, a land tour, or a cruisetour like this one, I can help you find the perfect Alaska experience.

One more post about Celebrity Cruises! 🚢✨

Last week we had the chance to experience Le Petit Chef aboard Celebrity Reflection, and it was so much fun!

This specialty dining experience comes with an additional cost, but it was absolutely worth it. Each course is introduced through a charming animated story projected right onto your table, bringing your meal to life in a truly unique way. It was entertaining, interactive, and unlike anything I’ve experienced at sea.

One of my biggest cruise tips? Make room in your budget for at least one or two specialty dining experiences. The food, service, and atmosphere are often a highlight of the trip. Celebrity also offers dining packages that can be purchased before your cruise, which can help you save a little money.

Now that I’ve had some time to process my first sailing with Celebrity Cruises, here are my thoughts! 🚢✨

Celebrity is definitely an elevated mass-market cruise experience. The atmosphere is quieter, more relaxed, and has a more adult feel than many mainstream cruise lines.

There are kids clubs and family-friendly activities, but I think Celebrity really shines for couples, adults traveling together, older kids, and multi-generational groups.

The food, service, and entertainment were all fantastic! My favorite spots onboard were definitely the Martini Bar and World Class Bar—both delivered amazing cocktails and great atmosphere every night. 🍸

The spa was huge, and the Thermal Suite was a wonderful place to relax. Casino lovers will also find plenty to enjoy onboard. 🎰

I loved the variety of activities available—from pool parties, trivia, cooking demonstrations, and mixology classes to plenty of quiet spaces where you can simply sit back and relax. One of my favorite places was the adults-only Solarium, where I spent time reading and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. 📚☀️

Since returning home, I’ve been quoting Celebrity cruises like crazy! Our agency has some fantastic group space available in 2026 and 2027, plus a great June booking promotion on select Caribbean sailings.

If you’ve been thinking about trying Celebrity Cruises—or planning your next Celebrity sailing—I’d love to help. With itineraries to more than 300 destinations worldwide, I’m sure we can find the perfect cruise for you!

One of my favorite things on Celebrity Cruises? The Martini Bar! 🍸✨

Not only are the martinis absolutely delicious, but the bartenders put on a nightly show that’s so much fun to watch. From flair bartending to incredible energy, it’s one of those experiences that keeps guests coming back night after night.

Great drinks, great atmosphere, and a little entertainment all rolled into one. Fabulous! 💙

Heading home from my cruise aboard the Celebrity Reflection, and what a fun few days it was! 🚢☀️

I’ll be sharing more soon about what makes Celebrity Cruises one of my favorite cruise lines, but today I wanted to talk about a first-time experience for me—Perfect Day at CocoCay!

Royal Caribbean and Celebrity’s private island in the Bahamas truly has something for everyone. From beautiful beaches and a huge water park to live entertainment, pools, dining, and more, it’s easy to spend an entire day enjoying everything the island has to offer.

We spent our day at Hideaway Beach, the adults-only area, and I absolutely loved it! With pools, swim-up bars, great food, plenty of lounge chairs, and a fun atmosphere, it was the perfect place to relax and soak up the sunshine. 🌴🍹

Interested in visiting Perfect Day at CocoCay? I’d love to help you find the perfect cruise itinerary that includes this incredible destination. Reach out to learn more!

Even though it’s cloudy it’s still a great day in Perfect Day at CocoCay! Loving Hidden Beach adults only paradise.
