Cruise and Travel by Donna

About

Donna has spent 17 years turning travel dreams into reality. A true cruise authority, she has personally experienced more than 60 cruises across ocean and river lines and excels at designing itineraries that balance shipboard luxury with immersive destination experiences. Donna is particularly skilled with group cruises — from family reunions to special-guest sailings — and arranged a Hawaiian cruise for a popular Hawaiian DJ and several of his top listeners, ensuring a seamless, memorable trip for everyone involved.

Beyond cruising, Donna is passionate about destination weddings and takes a hands‑on approach: she learns each couple personally and is happy to travel to the wedding locale to assist on the big day. As a frequent traveler to all‑inclusive properties, Donna provides first‑hand recommendations and is credentialed as a Sandals Specialist and AMResorts Master Certified Specialist. Families love working with her for theme‑park vacations — she has deep experience planning trips to Universal Studios, Walt Disney World, and Disney Cruise Line and tailors each plan to suit ages, interests, and budgets.
