Samantha Garrick - Travel Advisor

Still thinking about Adriatic sunsets, ancient stone streets, yacht days, late dinners, and views that make real life feel slightly offensive upon return.

If you’ve also reached the “I’d rather be in Croatia” level of Maycember, I can help with that! 🩵

The food & drinks & snacks onboard , hallelujah 🤌🤌

I’m still struggling to re-acclimate to normal life (and making dinner every night 😅)

Absolutely blown away by the talent of Tamara, Dejan, & Branko. Hvala!

I’ve just returned from Croatia- one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever been! And after spending a week on a yacht, I fear I’m permanently ruined for cruising. I was made for

With a max of 36 guests on board, incredible chef-prepared meals, personalized attention, and the ability to visit smaller ports with a top deck hot tub to enjoy the nights… I’m not getting over this vacation any time soon!!!

If this sounds like your kind of trip, let’s set up a time to chat! 🛥️🥂

Today is Global Travel Advisor Day ✈️

I don’t take for granted how special my career is.

This industry is built on relationships, & I get to experience that every single day. From collaborating with other advisors who genuinely support each other, to working alongside incredible partners who help me bring my clients’ trips to life in the best way possible.

But the heart of it all? My clients!!

You trust me with your vacations! The time you’ve worked hard for, saved for, and look forward to all year. That’s not something I ever take lightly.

Whether you’ve booked a honeymoon, a once-in-a-lifetime trip, or referred me to someone you love… thank you. Truly. That kind of trust means everything to me!

I love what I do, and I hope you feel that in every detail of the trips I plan.

It’s been a very cruise-heavy week over here… and I’m not mad about it 🚢

Just today:
– a Danube Christmas Markets sailing with Avalon Waterways in a gorgeous panoramic suite
– two Royal Caribbean cruises for next Thanksgiving in spacious Grand Suites

And that’s on top of quotes and spring sailings already in motion this week!

Here’s the thing about cruises: when they’re done *right*, they’re one of the easiest, most seamless ways to travel.

But how you book them matters: the ship, the itinerary, and especially the stateroom you choose can completely change your experience!

If a cruise is on your mind (whether it’s a holiday sailing, Europe, or something warm and easy), now is a really good time to start looking at options!

Send me “CRUISE” and I’ll help you find the one that actually fits what you’re looking for.

🏰 Disney 2027 just opened and parents are asking me this…

“Is it too early to start planning?”

Short answer: no!

This is actually the best time to start. When Disney opens bookings this far in advance, it gives you the biggest advantage:
– the best resort options (before they’re picked over)
– the most flexibility with dates & room
– time to plan dining and other special experiences

The families I work with who have the smoothest, most enjoyable trips are almost always the ones who start early, not the ones trying to piece things together a few months out.

If a Disney trip is on your radar for 2027, let’s start now to set it up the right way from the start!

If a fall trip to Europe is on your list, now is the time to plan!

Think:
– boutique hotels in Paris, Florence, Riga, or elsewhere
– smaller, experience-driven tours
– availability for the dates that work with your schedule

By early summer, a lot of the good options are limited, and what’s left could be either overpriced or not the best fit.

If you want a trip that’s thoughtfully planned (not pieced together last-minute), now is the time to start.

Comment “EUROPE” and I’ll help you map it out!

Everyone loves to talk about Disney deals… but here’s the truth: The loudest promotion isn’t always the best one. (!!)

I spent today pricing out a first-time trip for a family of 4, and the difference between offers was over $1,600 - on the exact same vacation!

💫Same resort. Same dates. Same magic.💫

The only thing that changed? Which promotion I applied.

That’s where working with a travel advisor makes ALL the difference. I compare every available offer so you don’t have to guess.

If a Walt Disney World vacation is on your radar for 2026, now is a great time to start planning (and locking in the right deal). Send me a message and I’ll take a look at options for your family!
