Hello, my name is Stuart Gustafson, and as an independent travel advisor, I have access to the same booking engines as every other travel agent. One big difference, however, is that there is no pressure for me “to make quota.” I have chosen to specialize in Cruises and Amazing Destinations around the world because I know them very well. If I am not the best fit for you, I will point you to someone who is.
I charge an upfront Consultation, Research, and Planning Fee ($80 per traveler, waived for established clients) for putting together a travel package based on your inputs. The fee is fully refundable upon return from those travels that I researched and booked for you.
Join me and others on the December 2025 Imperial Cities and Yuletide Markets Cruise.
As a traveler and America’s International Travel Expert®, I’ve been to 85 countries, 231 different cruise ports, and have flown 1,500,171 PAID miles on a single airline! If you want travel plans crafted for you by THE Expert and Traveler, and not just a “seller of travel,” I’d love the opportunity to help you fulfill your travel wishes.
“The anniversary cruise you booked for us was everything we could have hoped for … and more!”

The U.S. Passport Office has re-opened for processing new passport applications, but the wait times are quite lengthy. I suggest you use a expediting service to get your passport (or foreign country visa) if you are traveling within the next six months.
With travel restrictions and requirements changing frequently, the best source of up-to-date information is the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Consular Affairs. While there, I highly recommend that you sign up for their Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP).
If you want a fabulous trip created for you, please fill out the brief form below and then hit SUBMIT. I will set up a time to discuss it with you to ensure that everything you want is part of the plan.
