About the Owner

​​​​​

Hi there and welcome to Vibrant Travel. Tina here, the agency owner, certified travel counselor, and concierge travel consultant.

 

My love of travel began many years ago when my father took us on a family vacation across the country. We traveled from Delaware to California in the family station wagon and stopped at many amazing places. I saw a rainbow inside the Grand Canyon, hiked Garden of the Gods, crossed the Hoover Dam, visited Reno, and of course Disneyland! I spent a month in Spain and France during college experiencing the life, culture, and people of those countries, and I was hooked on travel from then on.

Since then, I have traveled to almost all 50 states within the United States and visited many different countries around the world experiencing their food, history, and culture. My travels have helped me understand the pitfalls of travel and how to avoid them. I'll share those with you along the way.

Professional Experience

 

My professional travel experience began with a major cruise line, a major resort brand, and vacation ownership. I earned my Certified Travel Counselor, from the Travel Institute and continue to earn certifications in destinations around the world. I left the travel industry for several years and became a project manager. That role requires extensive attention to detail, and the ability to take several workstreams and ensure that they all fit together. When I decided to leave the corporate world and venture out on my own to start Vibrant Travel, I was well equipped with both project management skills, customer service skills, and travel experience that ensures I get the details right for you on your next trip.
 

Specialties

I specialize in unique destinations, honeymoons, group travel, and custom-built trips to Europe with a focus on Ireland, Iceland, and Italy.  I love building once-in-a-lifetime trips like a trip to Kenya to see the animals in their natural habitat, or Iceland to see the northern lights, Japan to have tea with a Geisha, or maybe you would like to see a Koala in Australia.  All wonderful trips for honeymoons, travel with family, and trips with friends. I love assisting with Destination Weddings in the Caribbean and Costa Rica too; they are rich in both history and natural beauty.

​

 

I will leave you with one of my favorite quotes. I wish you amazing vacations and happy travels!
