Welcome to my new website! I am excited to introduce you to my new travel company. I have been a travel advisor for over 25 years and have had the privilege to collaborate and create many one-of-a-kind adventures for my clients over the years.
I specialize in small groups, leisure, and unique travel experiences. Getting to know and collaborate with my clients to create moments and memories that last a lifetime is what I love to do. Travel has been a big part of my life since I was about 13 years old and experienced my first trip to Nain, Labrador in 1979. Talk about culture shock! This trip opened my eyes to new adventures and meeting other Canadians.
I love life at sea and have personally sailed over 25 times with a variety of cruise lines including AMA Waterways, NCL, National Geographic, Uncruise Adventures, Windstar, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Holland America, Princess, MSC, and Carnival. Each voyage was been memorable and unique in its own way.
Past clients have enjoyed amazing safaris, adventures in faraway lands, and hot air balloon rides over the Serengeti. I have arranged group travel for destination weddings on cruise ships, and at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico, and as far as Curacao. Ask me about Costa Rica… a destination I have visited 8 times!
2017 brought me to the Galapagos with Lindblad Expeditions and Vietnam/Cambodia on AMA Waterways River Vessel, the AMA Dara accompanied by 22 other great adventurers. 2018 took me to the Grand Canyon and Ireland. Ireland should be on your bucket list! It was on mine and did not disappoint! 13 curious travelers joined me and our private guide to explore the whole island. 2019 fulfilled another dream destination Croatia… such a beautiful country. Nothing like swimming in the Adriatic Sea. January 2020 was a wonderful 9-night Caribbean cruise where I snorkeled in Bonaire National Marine Park. The fish was incredible! While the world of travel has changed, I look forward to more exciting adventures.
Over-tourism has become a current issue. One solution can be to travel as a responsible tourist; to travel in ways that maximize positive impacts and minimize the negative ones. Let’s embark on this journey together!
You can put your trust in me to make your next trip an experience you will never forget!
Hear From My Past Clients:
“Colette was referred by a friend and I am so happy we went with her. She was exceptionally friendly as well as professional. We gave her an idea of what we were looking for for our honeymoon to Jamaica and she did not fall short. She offered many options for what we were looking for and made suggestions as well. All of which were very helpful. We have no complaints about our trip at all. Thank you Colette for helping us find our perfect honeymoon!”
“I would highly recommend Colette for organizing any & all of your travel needs. She was absolutely amazing to work with. She worked within our wants & even recommended a few other options that made our honeymoon in Costa Rica truly one to be remembered. We provided Colette our time frame on when we were available to travel & a couple suggested resorts on where we would have like to stay. She made it all happen. We were there for 2 weeks, and since we changed resorts she even arranged private transfers to & from the airport and in between resorts. Everything we expected & more!! Truly amazing to have worked with her. Thanks so much Colette!”
“WOW, where do I begin!! I am extremely lucky and blessed to have had Colette make suggestions, plan, organize, and follow through with all of my family and personal trips for 15 years. She is beyond patient and always quick to return my phone call – so important! A few of our holidays have been to the Galapagos, Africa x2, Australia, Portugal, Costa Rica, Ireland and the Canary Islands, which require a professional touch, a knack for detail and an understanding of these countries. When searching for polar bears, swimming among beluga/whale sharks or observing ancient architecture, it is a comfort knowing that Colette is always there, should something happen. She is a superstar!!”
“Colette is by far the best Travel Advisor I have ever used. Her attention to detail is unparalleled and she misses nothing. Such a pleasure to deal and travel with her. Will definitely be working with Colette again.”
“Awesome, she leaves no stone unturned, her attention to detail is second to none. No surprises or snags anywhere on the entire journey. Cannot wait until the next trip.”
