Whether you're setting sail on a cruise, relaxing at a Caribbean all-inclusive resort, exploring Alaska or Hawaii, or planning a custom itinerary, you'll receive thoughtful recommendations, expert guidance, and personalized service from start to finish.
Rather than overwhelming you with endless options, I carefully curate recommendations that best fit your travel style, priorities, and budget.

Personalized travel consultation
Destination and supplier recommendations
Customized itinerary planning
Booking coordination
Reservation management
Supplier communication
Travel documentation assistance
Pre-departure support
Planning Services & Fees
Every vacation is unique, and the amount of planning varies depending on the destination and complexity of your trip. To provide thoughtful, personalized service, certain vacations require a planning fee before research begins.
Cruises & Caribbean All-Inclusive Resorts
A $100 Planning Deposit is required per household before planning begins.
Once your reservation is confirmed through WildKind Travel, your $100 Planning Deposit will be applied toward your final trip balance.
If you choose not to move forward with your reservation before booking is confirmed, discontinue the planning process, or choose to book elsewhere, the Planning Deposit is forfeited and retained as payment for the professional planning services already provided.
Alaska & Hawaii Land Vacations
A $150 Planning Fee is required per household.
These vacations often involve multiple accommodations, transportation, activities, and customized recommendations that require more extensive research and itinerary planning.
This planning fee is nonrefundable once planning begins and is separate from the cost of your vacation.
Custom Destination Planning
Planning for destinations outside WildKind Travel's core specialties, or for highly customized itineraries, begins at $250 per household.
Examples include:
Europe
Multi-city vacations
National Park itineraries
Ski vacations
International land vacations
Complex custom itineraries
This planning fee is nonrefundable once planning begins and is separate from the cost of travel.

Payments for travel are made directly to the travel supplier unless otherwise stated.
