Cruise Expert including River Cruises
Ann-Marie on her Rhine River cruise
I have been in the travel industry for almost 25 years with the last 22 as Owner of my cruise focused travel agency. Before I opened Cruise Holidays I worked for a "full service" agency and I realized that it is impossible to know everything about every area of travel. My passion is cruising and I decided to focus on cruises so I could truly be an Expert.
When I go on vacation, the majority of the time it is on a cruise. This allows me to personally experience the different cruise lines, cruise ships, destinations and what to see and do. Because of this, my expertise lies in everything to do with your cruise including flights, transfers, pre and post hotels, insurance, shore excursions, etc.
I have cruised on almost 100 cruises to many destinations including but not limited to Galapagos, Russia, Australia/New Zealand, Europe, Vietnam & Cambodia, Alaska and, of course, the Caribbean. Many of those cruises have been river cruises which I must admit are my absolute favourite.
My Areas of Expertise

5 Star Academy with Celebrity Cruises
Commodore with Princess Cruises
