I started my career as a travel professional in 2019, amidst the challenges of the pandemic. It was both the best and worst time to dive into the industry. Business was nearly at a standstill, and there were so many changes going on. I consider all the extra education and training that was required during this time very beneficial, and I've learned to pay very close attention to detail.
With my own travel agency and support from my Host Agency, I proudly hold certifications from Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), and Signature Travel Network.
Traveling has gifted me priceless memories and a great appreciation for diverse cultures, with culinary adventures being a personal favorite! Beyond a career, it's my passion to craft unforgettable journeys for others. Whether it's cruises, tours, or bespoke adventures, I'm dedicated to being your personal travel concierge, ensuring every trip is a lifelong memory in the making.
Kindly,
Mae Joy Gaviola, VTA, CCC

Do you have a cruise booked, and are still wondering what to do while in port? There is so much to explore and do, no matter where you are - tequila tasting, snorkeling, horseback riding, cooking classes, and so much more!
