Arenal Volcano- Costa Rica

Growing up in sunny Southern California exposed me to great beaches, vast cities, and awesome weather. It’s only natural that I gravitated towards the Caribbean as well!


I began traveling to Costa Rica regularly and enjoyed zip-lining, hiking in the rainforest, and visiting historic coffee plantations. I love this country so much that I even want to retire there! As my own vacations grew more complex, I realized that I enjoyed planning almost as much as arriving! I decided to leave my previous job and jump right into the travel industry, and I couldn’t be happier!


I now specialize in exciting vacations that mix leisure and adventure in numerous destinations. I want my clients to truly understand the culture of their destination while also enjoying the best it has to offer. I prepare unique experiences based on my client’s interests, and I create an itinerary that is guaranteed to be memorable.


Every vacation is unique, and I will work with you to create a personalized trip that’s beyond compare! As your travel agent, I will:



  • Simplify the booking process

  • Ease any worries you have before departure

  • Maximize your time and enjoyment

  • Create an itinerary tailored to you

  • Be available 24/7

  • And more!


I recently booked the first Orange County Catholic Cruise for a charity organization, and I hope to continue booking for charity groups around the world. Knowing that I helped make this important trip possible means the world to me, and I want to make a difference in all of my client’s lives by providing the perfect vacation!


I try to live life without stress, and I will bring the same philosophy to your vacation. I will prepare you for your trip so you arrive without any concerns or worries. I will also be available around the clock so you always get the assistance you need.


I want to make your next vacation the best it can be. Call me today to start booking!

A Trip to Remember!
Joe did a wonderful job in listening to what type of experience I was looking for in my trip to Costa Rica and set up all the details that I had asked for. He provided lots of information while planning this trip and communicated with me several times as the trip was approaching with additional details and to be sure I was comfortable. He made sure we had all the forms completed including Covid tests. I really couldn’t ask for more. He nailed it!

Australia Trip
Joe was very knowledgeable and very easy to work with. He made planning/booking our trip seamless. I was in over my head planning a trip to Australia and he took care of it all making sure all the activities I wanted were on the itinerary. All the hotels we stayed in were nice and in great areas as well as seamless transfers to and from our hotels. It was also very nice that he reached out mid trip as our last stop on the itinerary was being hit by a cyclone. He assured us we’d be taken care of and was going to make adjustments if necessary. It was comforting knowing we weren’t alone and could keep enjoying our trip

Thank You Joe
Joe went above and beyond to help us plan our 1st trip to Costa Rica in Jan 2025. We had a minor problem while in Costa Rica and he was there to help and get the situation resolved. During the planning process I had lots of questions, as this was our first trip to Costa Rica. He helped with what we could expect and helped with a list of things we would need while there. Thank you Joe for all your help! We can't wait for our next adventure.
