Hello from the Mediterranean, yachting Star Pride
Hello from the Mediterranean, yachting Star Pride

My mission statement is “Move life forward – live life now, don’t wait!” Whatever your interest: music, history, culinary wildlife, adventure, or something else, I can help you create your next travel memory. 

I started my travel industry career with Holland America Line at 24 years old and I understand that oceans connect and move us. They, along with the destinations that cruise ships bring us to, offer life, color and beauty. I have been with Cruise Specialists since 2012, and this allows me to bring together my passion for travel along with my desire to offer an enriching travel planning service to discerning travelers. My expertise lies in planning World Cruises and Grand Voyages, Hosted Voyages, river cruises (including unique back-to-back river cruises) and expedition cruises. 

My passion for travel has taken me to many intriguing places — I’ve been to Alaska at least 10 times and have covered much of the Caribbean several times over. I’ve experienced Europe, throughout western and eastern Europe (including a Danube river cruise), and many other wonderful places. Travel is what connects us and I cherish these memories, as well as helping my clients make their own. 

In order to be able to answer your questions and enhance the services I offer to you, I have experienced these cruise lines firsthand:

  • Silversea
  • Holland America Line (worked there for 10 years)
  • Oceania Cruises
  • Viking River Cruises
  • Windstar Cruises
  • Seabourn 
  • Scenic Luxury Cruises

I have also toured and inspected ships with the following cruise lines:

  • Celebrity Cruises
  • Oceania Cruises
  • Princess Cruises
  • Regent Seven Seas Cruises
  • Royal Caribbean
  • Seabourn
  • Silversea
  • UnCruise Adventures
  • American Queen Steamboat Company 

Some of my favorite cruise highlights include:

  • A two-week Crystal Cruise in the Caribbean. The all-inclusive nature of Crystal makes it such a relaxing experience! And the staff-to-guest ratio is truly outstanding.

  • A 7-day cruise on Oceania Sirena, from Barcelona to Malta. The cuisine on Oceania Cruises is touted as The Finest Cuisine at Sea. I can personally attest that their food is beyond incredible, with an emphasis on fresh, local ingredients their chefs gather in the ports being visited. 

While I have been on many more cruises, the above experiences help highlight some of the ways I am looking to enrich your travels. 

Voyage Host 

Another cruising highlight that has enhanced my understanding of client needs is that I have served as a Voyage Host. As a Voyage Host on a Windstar Cruise in the Mediterranean, I was an extra resource for a group of 40 travelers who had reserved their cruise through our special group. You can read more about this in my Hosted Cruises bio. 

Finally, as a Cruise Consultant with Cruise Specialists, I have the support of a strong and experienced team that helps me respond to any need you may have. We have decades of experience in working with detailed reservations, planning pre- and post-cruise hotel stays, travel protection and much more.   

I look forward to meeting with you via phone or email, hearing about your travel dreams and making your next trip unforgettable.

Scenic Eclipse

I recently sailed on the Scenic Eclipse and my overall experience was outstanding.  The yacht-like ship carries only 228 guests with a reduced occupancy on Arctic and Antarctica cruises (200 guests).  The Eclipse has a luxurious residential style and delivers personalized six-star service, outstanding cuisine, and an array of discovery tours...

  • Another World Cruise

    Reviewed By Barbara - Pacific Palisades, CA | Traveled to Japan ~ East and Southeast Asia
    I don't remember how many years Teresa has been my agent. I am very happy to have her as my agent. She has been very good at handling the many emails I send her and taking care of the bookings we make for our cruises with Holland America. We usually book our cruises on the ship and then Teresa takes it from there to make sure we receive our invoices from HAL and Cruise Specialists. She also handles the payments we make for our cruises and sends us updated invoices so we can keep track of our balance due. I not only consider her my agent, but also my friend.

    A couple of recommendations that Teresa made were great!! Get near the middle of the ship (Viking River ship, we were the closest room to the center and all events, strm 301) and get a 3rd level (top) room. With all of the locks that you go through in 15 days (67 of them) the top floor has the best view and is blocked visually the least. Note: The Viking crew said that about 40% of their 15 day river cruises get bused around low water levels to another ship, so go when the water levels have highest chance of high. Wonderful Crew and fun ship. Limited activities on the ship including 5 straight days when "Sun Deck" (top) is closed due to low bridges.

    Great service and great help with everything I asked for. And she’s great to talk to, answers email queries right away. It truly was a trip of a lifetime. I still haven’t taken it all in. I feel Teresa as extremely helpful, got me a good deal and made it effortless on my part. Any changes, ask Teresa? Don’t understand something, ask Teresa!

  • Memorable Trip with Sister

    Reviewed By Shelly K. - Cherryvale, KS | Traveled to Alaska | USA
    We had a memorable trip on my sister’s first cruise to Alaska and her first time sailing Holland America. The itinerary was excellent, we had amazing accommodations, and a flawless travel experience. As always, our cruise consultant Teresa handled all the details and was there to assist by phone or email whenever we had questions, modified flight arrangements, etc. Another fabulous trip made possible by Cruise Specialists!

  • Expert Advice for Our First World Cruise

    Reviewed By Shelly - Cherryvale, KS | Traveled to World Cruise ~ Other
    Teresa is WONDERFUL! She remembers little details about our travel arrangements, wishes, etc. She was very helpful as we booked and planned for our first world cruise. We thought we would be booking an inside cabin as the most economical choice. Teresa helped us analyze all the early booking incentives, enabling us to book an outside cabin as the best deal. Later, she helped us upgrade to a balcony and her prompt service allowed us to snag an amazing location. We couldn't have booked and planned this trip without her!
