Turks & Caicos' Gorgeous Grace Bay

I have always loved to travel, and have been all over the U.S, including Alaska and Hawaii.  I have also been to Prague, Japan, Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, Playa del Carmen and Cozumel, Mexico, parts of the Caribbean and on two Disney Cruises.   

With all the above travel experience, I am well versed in travel and have gained a lot of knowledge to help you plan the trip of your dreams. Even during the pandemic year of 2020, I was able to help clients travel in the US during this difficult travel time. 

I have taken our children to Disney World more times than can be counted and I'm also a certified Disney agent.  I would be excited to help you make the "Magic" come alive for you and your family, by taking all the work out of your Disney planning.  I can take all the planning off your hands  to make your Disney vacation truly Magical.  I would welcome the opportunity to make a truly memorable vacation of a lifetime for you, your friends and family, whether it's a trip across America, trip to Disney, a cruise or a tour of Europe.    

My goal is to book your leisure and business travel either around the world or domestically, whether it is by rail, air, cruise, a tour, or just needing a car or hotel, with the excellent customer service that my clients deserve.   

As a travel agent and one who has traveled a lot, I enjoy sharing travel experiences and tips with others so as to make their vacation as stress free and the best one possible.

Amazing Family Vacation to Hawaii

6/2024 Helen planned the most wonderful trip for my family and I to Hawaii, covering both Oahu and Kauai islands. From start to finish, her attention to detail and understanding of our preferences made the entire experience unforgettable. In Oahu, we loved exploring the beautiful beaches, historic sites, and vibrant nightlife. Helen's recommendations for local dining were spot on, and we especially enjoyed the hidden gems she pointed out that we wouldn't have found on our own. Kauai was a paradise of its own with its lush landscapes and serene environment. The activities Helen arranged, including the breathtaking plane tour over the Na Pali Coast, were absolutely spectacular. Every hotel she chose for us was luxurious, comfortable, and perfectly located. Helen's expertise and personal touch transformed our vacation into a dream come true. We can't thank her enough and highly recommend her services to anyone planning a trip to Hawaii or anywhere else for that matter.

Anniversary Cruise to the Bahamas

Absolutely amazing to work with! She's always there for questions. She helped us with everything. From the cruise line and date, best hotel prices, plane tickets and ride from our port. She made packing lists for us to make sure we didn't forget anything. Even helped us with questions while we were on the cruise. We had the best vacation imaginable. We will definitely be using her for all our trips in the future.

Most Amazing Trip Ever - Hawaii!

I must give the biggest shout-out to Helen Sims of Wander The World Travel Services! She helped plan the most amazing trip! This was truly a trip of a lifetime. There were a lot details: land tours, excursions, transportation, and a 12 day cruise. She truly planned every aspect of this trip with me for us, planning every detail in advance along with her app at my fingertips that had every voucher, ticket, reservation, touring reservation, I could have imagined, along with recommendations for dining & shopping along the way. We haven't cruised in a very long time; she was a wealth of knowledge on what package was the best fit, and she was spot on. Honestly this was a seamless trip because of her. She even notified me for the return trip home to be sure AA had notified me of our delayed flight. We've booked another cruise in the future. This trip was EPIC and it would not have been half that amazing without her help, input & planning. If you are planning a trip, call her! .
