Grand Forks, ND

Certified River Cruise Specialist & Resort Expert

You should be my next VIP client!

My passion for travel is why I chose this career a decade ago. My travel experiences are the base and I build on that base through constant education and travel.

Through certification courses, meetings, webinars, conventions and trade shows. I spend many weeks each year traveling on ships, visiting new countries, inspecting hotels and resorts. I believe experience is the best teacher and actually 'being there' is what propels me above the competition.

I wrap it all together with personalized customer service for a truly seamless experience. I have traveled the globe and experienced many of my bucket-list travel dreams. My travel experiences directly benefit my clients and I continue to add to this growing foundation each year. I have now been to over 41 different countries, with repeated visits to many. Some of my favorite countries are Ireland, Croatia, Montenegro, Italy and the islands of the Caribbean.

Two of my specialty niches are all-inclusive resorts and river cruises. These are my pride and joy when it comes to booking clients. I know these very well and have extensive training and certifications in them. This is my realm and why you need me. My contacts in this industry are second to none. 

Coming to me will save you money and time. I will expertly match you to a cruise, resort or destination that fits you perfectly. Seamless travel and support along the way. I work for you, not the cruise lines or hotels, so someone is always in your corner when needed. No fees for my most of my services and I only take on about 50 clients per year, so I have the proper time it takes to devote to my customers.

You are by far the best travel agent that we have ever worked with. Our last agent didn't provide nearly the amount of assistance that you have. We will FOR SURE be working with you again in the future (if you will have us)! Thank you again and again for all that you have done for us.  Andrea W.

Hi Pete!! OMG! Loved the butler service and the general manager Mr G meeting us when we arrived! Thank you so much for all your special touches, we truly felt like Royalty. Tiffany J.

We cannot THANK YOU enough for all the work you did, in fact, I am sending your contact info to some others we met there who definitely did not get the service from their travel agents like we did. I am confident they will contact you for their next travels! Michelle H.

Wonderful Christmas Getaway
We had a great time on our family vacation planned by Peter Larson. He thought of all the details, gave us tips and tricks and found a resort that met my picky family's wants and desires. Peter has a ton of experience booking travel around the world and has traveled to Jamaica many times. He was also our go-to travel agent for our first Disney cruise a few years ago when my teenagers were younger.

Pete has your back.
We decided to do a Danube River Cruise. It was spontaneous and already late in the season. I checked with Pete. He informed me that the cruise I picked out was already booked solid. He said to let him look for other options. He found another cruise, on another cruise line (Emerald Waterways). Skipping ahead - as our cruise date approached, the Danube River was having some low level issues. Pete stayed appraised of the situation and kept us informed of our options. We opted for a modified itinerary with a couple coach transfers where the river was too low to cruise. This was a rare situation BTW. Emerald has a cruise warranty that covers this situation and Pete processed the papers for partial reimbursement. Pete had our back. We have used him before on other Cruises with great satisfaction. Pete has us booked on an “around Cape Horn” cruise for later next year.
