Portfolio

Trips I've planned, and how they came together.

This is the portfolio of a luxury travel advisor who books real trips for real people out of Sioux Falls. A family in Ireland, three countries in one European trip, ten days in Cozumel for six, a winter week on the Texas coast. The reviews from these clients are on their own page.

Destination wedding at the Cliffs of Moher, July 2026

Ireland

The Cliffs of Moher from the water during Robin's daughter's destination wedding trip to Ireland

A family trip built around a wedding at the Cliffs of Moher, with travel and timing sorted for the whole group.

  • Country house stays and transfers arranged so the family could focus on the wedding, not the logistics.
  • Day-of timing and local contacts handled, including the coastal towns the family wanted to see.
  • A private guide for the Cliffs of Moher area, which gave everyone a break from driving.

We had an absolutely exceptional experience with our travel agent for our trip to Ireland. From the very beginning, every detail was handled with such care, professionalism, and thoughtfulness. Traveling internationally can feel overwhelming, but we were able to truly enjoy our time in Ireland knowi...

Anniversary trip, July 2026

Italy, France and Ireland

Riccardo and his wife in the Tuscan countryside on a multi country Europe anniversary trip

Three countries in one trip, with the excursions booked before departure and one luggage rescue in the middle.

  • Lunch at the Eiffel Tower and a dinner cruise on the Seine, both reserved months out.
  • A private guide through the coastal towns of Ireland.
  • Bags lost in Chicago, found, flown over, and couriered to the hotel in Paris while the trip carried on.

Beverly was amazing to work with and delivered exactly what we wanted on our European trip to Italy, France, and Ireland. Every excursion (lunch at the Eiffel Tour, dinner cruise on the Seine, private guide around the coastal towns of Ireland) were magical. She even went above and beyond to locate o...

Group of six, ten days in April 2024

Cozumel and Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Sunset over the beach club at Cozumel, Mexico, a ten day group trip planned by Paradise Travel

Ten days for six people where every day had a plan and nobody had to organize it in a group chat.

  • Jeep rental for the island loop, with Punta Sur Eco Beach Park, the lighthouse and a rum tasting.
  • The Otoch Mayan Experience with a private guide, and Chankanaab for the dolphin and manatee swim.
  • Glass bottom boat and reef snorkeling, San Miguel for dinner, and a ferry day in Playa del Carmen with the table already held.

My group of 6 spent ten days in Cozumel. Beverly at Paradise Travel planned the whole thing and that's the best decision we made. Jeep rental to tour the island with stops Punta Sur Eco Beach Park to see the crocodiles, the lighthouse and a rum tasting. The Otoch Mayan Experience with a private guid...

Winter getaway, February 2026

South Padre Island, Texas

Pool and palms lit up at night at the South Padre Island hotel Gary stayed in on his winter getaway

A short winter escape without a passport, with the excursions sorted before arrival.

  • Beachfront hotel picked for the walk to the water rather than the brochure.
  • Parasailing, a Brownsville tour and the SpaceX site, spaced out so the week didn't feel like a schedule.

Our South Padre Winter Getaway was a great time the hotel was perfect and the employees were helpful. Our excursions of parasailing, Brownsville tour and Space X were enjoyable. Thanks for your help.

Snowbird stay, February 2026

South Padre Island, Texas

Sunset over the Gulf from the hotel at South Padre Island, Texas, on a month long stay

A full month in one room, which makes the room choice the whole trip.

  • The specific room category and view held, not just the hotel booked.
  • Location chosen for the errands too, so a month there worked like living somewhere.

We spent an amazing month at Hilton Garden Inn and Suites thanks to Beverly Schulte's great help! We had the perfect room with a beautiful view of the ocean! Loved the sunrise every morning. Beverly did a wonderful job getting the room we wanted and it was easy to get to where we wanted to go.

Resort search for a couple

Caribbean

The trip where the work was narrowing it down, not booking it.

  • Several rounds back and forth on resorts and islands until the fit was right.
  • Notes on the things people forget, sent before the deposit rather than after.

Beverly is amazing! She is so thoughtful and really listens to what you want out of your trip. She went back and forth with me many times to get the perfect resort and location that met all of our needs. I will definitely be working with her on our future trips!! She made it so effortless and easy t...
