Aruba

Aruba has always been a favourite tropical destination for our family. In fact, we have been going since our youngest daughter was just a toddler.

From gorgeous turquoise waters to warm island breezes, cool attractions, and friendly locals, you can’t beat the charm of “One Happy Island.”

As our family’s expert travel planner, I have become a master at packing as much into a trip as I can.

Whether we are in a city for 24 hours, several days, or a full week, I know how to make the most of our time.

And over the years, I have picked up some valuable tips and tricks to help other travellers maximize their vacation experiences as well.

Whether you are planning a family getaway, honeymoon, or solo trip, I can help you make it memorable.
