Life is Better Traveling 

Kris Vanderlinden

European and Cruise Specialist

Hi my name is Kris, I live in Darnestown, MD just outside Wahington, D.C. I've lived in many states in the US from California to NYC.


Customer service is my main focus. I believe if you treat people right, they will come back. Repeat, happy customers is how I gauge success in my business. If you want very detailed itinerary, I'm your agent!


Traveling has been a big part of my life. I've traveled then entire East Coast from Canada to Florida and much of the West Coast. My goal is all 50 states!


I've been to 12 European Countries and nothing makes me happier than immersing myself in the culture and people along my travels. Iceland is my current hot spot and love!


I'm Disney and Universal certified and very savvy with cruise planning.

Helping others plan culturally rich, memorable vacations is my passion!
