Your USA Travel Experts: For Your Best USA Vacations

I am a third generation Californian; a proud son of the left coast. When not heading off to Asia, I enjoy exploring the nooks and crannies of the West Coast. There is more to this part of the country than Fisherman's Wharf and Disneyland! The Oregon Coast, the California Gold Country, the Mojave Desert... Did you know that California has eight National Parks? My personal experience includes extensive travel in California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona and Nevada. My favorites include the California Redwoods, San Diego, and hiking Angel Island in San Francisco Bay.

There are so many things to do in this part of the country! You may have noticed the bias towards the National Parks? While I enjoy a good walk in the woods, I am not a fanatical hiker, and you do not need to be to see some incredible scenery. I am also a baseball fanatic! The west is home to seven major league teams and some of the best stadiums in baseball. But if you really want to enjoy baseball in the old-fashioned way, may I suggest a minor league game? For a fraction of the cost of a major league experience, you can sit right behind home plate and hear the chatter between the players.

Food. I love good food! Seattle has some of the most amazing seafood in the world. The further south you go, the better the Mexican food gets. Of course there is the Napa Valley, but did you know Oregon makes some very good wine? And there are old growth vineyards in Sierra Foothills that have been producing for over 100 years.

I am also a museum junkie! But think beyond the obvious; the Getty is great and San Francisco is Museum Paradise. If you make it to Tucson, do not miss the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum. So much to do much to see, so much to eat! If you need help planning your West Coast adventure, please contact me!

I grew up as a Navy brat so definitely “saw the USA in a Chevrolet.” A Biscayne to be exact. My family’s many cross country trips were unforgettable, always ending in an exciting new home, school and neighborhood. The thrill of seeing the Grand Canyon, standing on the Great Salt Lake, circling giant Sequoias, Mt. Rushmore, and the Lincoln Memorial checkered my childhood. These experiences fueled my desire to become a world traveler but I never forgot where I came from. Whether you would enjoy river rafting down the Colorado, skiing in the Rockies or a more urban theatre weekend in New York or a Las Vegas getaway, let me help you plan your own American experience. I have arranged many and varied successful trips in the USA and have experience in adventure travel, family vacations, luxury travel, and independent as well as escorted travel. In addition to being an expert travel planner, I have the connections to make your trip a success and add extra value. I can even rent you a car, maybe not a Biscayne, but definitely a Chevrolet.

A lot of people look outside of our extraordinary country for travel, adventure and education. NOW is the time to start experiencing this awesome land we are privileged enough to inhabit. I have had the good fortune to live in many parts of the United States, from the East Coast, through the rugged Rockies to Hawaii and back to California. My family is widely scattered from New England to the South. While living and visiting in these diverse areas, I traveled extensively in the vicinity, educating myself on the beauty and treasures that are offered.

If you want to get to really know the United States, from the trendy urban experiences to the exquisite beaches to the secret “outback” of the US (yes, it exists!), I am ready, willing and passionate to help you in the perfect American Adventure.
