I’ve Got Your Back
Why Choose KLR Travels
Let’s cut through the noise – when you’re searching for “travel agents near me,” you’ll find plenty of options. But here’s what makes my travel agency different: I’m not your typical travel consultant who just scrolls through booking engines. Unlike large travel agencies and tour operators, when you work with me, you get someone who’s literally walked the beaches, sampled the restaurants, and tested the service at hundreds of destinations.
Think of me as your brutally honest friend who happens to be a travel expert. While other traveling consultants might just forward you a brochure, I’ll tell you straight up if that Instagram-famous resort actually lives up to the hype (spoiler: they often don’t). I spend about two weeks each month on the road, personally vetting destinations and experiences. Why? Because I believe your precious vacation time deserves more than a guess-and-hope approach from traditional travel agencies.
What sets my travel agency apart:
Direct, no-BS approach to travel planning
Monthly destination research trips (yes, I’m probably messaging you from a different timezone)
Advisory board experience shaping the future of luxury travel
Extensive hands-on experience with every major cruise line
Personal relationships with resort managers and tour operators worldwide
As your dedicated travel agent, I specialize in crafting those “how did you pull this off?” moments – whether it’s securing that impossible-to-get restaurant reservation in Santorini or arranging a surprise proposal setup that looks effortless (but required 17 emails and 3 Zoom calls to coordinate perfectly).

Want to skip the hometown wedding drama and say your vows somewhere incredible? As a Sandals WeddingMoons Silver Specialist, I’ve helped countless couples navigate the whole destination wedding thing.

Fun fact: I’ve personally visited over 40 wedding venues across the Caribbean and Europe this year alone.
