I grew up traveling, and now I want to help other families share those same kinds of experiences together. I understand what it's like to travel with kids, so I plan with the whole family in mind. I'm also budget-focused, and I work hard to stretch your travel dollars as far as they can go. Tell me what you're dreaming of, and I'll help you make it happen.

Frequently asked questions
Does it cost extra to plan with you?
Ask us about any fees up front. We'll always be clear about what you're paying for before you book.
Is there a membership fee to join the club?
No. "Club" is just part of our name, a playful nod to a favorite song. There's no membership fee to work with us, and anyone can request a quote. [PLACEHOLDER: Julio to confirm]
I've never been on a cruise. Can you help?
Absolutely. First-time cruisers are some of our favorite people to plan for. We'll explain how cruising works, help you choose a cruise line, ship and stateroom that fit your group, and walk you through what to expect from booking to boarding day.
What information do you need for a quote?
The basics: roughly when you'd like to travel, how flexible your dates are, how many adults and children are going (with kids' ages), your preferred departure port and a comfortable budget range. The quote form covers all of it.
Which departure ports can I sail from?
It depends on the cruise line and itinerary. Southern California travelers often look at West Coast ports for Mexico and Pacific sailings, while many Caribbean and Bahamas cruises depart from Florida. We can compare options, including whether flying to another port makes sense.
