I plan unforgettable cruises — ocean, river, and expedition — so every detail is handled before you ever step onboard.
Hi, I'm Stacy Hodgson — a Certified Cruise Counselor (CCC) and Certified Autism Travel Professional based in Bloomington, MN. I've personally sailed on 40+ cruises around the globe and used every bit of that experience to help families, couples, and solo travelers find the voyage that fits them perfectly.
Whether you're dreaming of the Caribbean, a European river, Alaska, or a world cruise — I handle every detail, from cabin selection to shore excursions, transfers, private tours, and pre/post land packages, so your only job is to show up and enjoy.
From first-time cruisers to seasoned world travelers — I cover every style of vacation with the same level of care and expertise.
Caribbean beaches, Alaskan glaciers, European cobblestone — if it's on the water, I know it. I'll match you to the right ship, line, and itinerary for your exact travel style.
Pre- and post-cruise land packages, private tours, guided tours, transfers, travel insurance, and bundled itineraries. Every connection handled so your trip flows from door to dock and back.
When a cruise isn't the right fit, I find the resort that is. Sun, sand, and all-inclusive ease — with the perks that come from booking through a Travel Leaders specialist.
From Disney Cruise Line to multi-generational sailings, I plan trips that actually work for families — with kids' programs, accessible cabins, and itineraries everyone enjoys.
Planning a group sailing, reunion, or corporate retreat? I coordinate group rates, group amenities, and all the logistics so you can focus on the people, not the paperwork.
As a Certified Autism Travel Professional (CATP), I specialize in trips that work for every traveler. From airport assistance programs and handicapped accessible cabins to logistics help for special needs and adaptive equipment — no one gets left behind.
Booking a cruise online takes minutes. Planning the right one takes expertise. Here's what you get when you work with Stacy.
I know these ships, routes, and cabins personally. No guessing — just the right fit for your style and budget.
Flight delays, cancellations and trip interruptions, itinerary changes — I handle it all before and during your trip. You have one person to contact.
Skip the tourist traps. I know which excursions are worth it, which ports deserve more time, and which you can skip.
As a preferred travel specialist, I often unlock onboard credits, upgrades, and amenities not available when booking direct.
As a Certified Autism Travel Professional (CATP), I plan trips that work for every traveler — including those with sensory or accessibility needs.
I provide ongoing support and advocacy. From our consultation to tailored recommendations and a custom online itinerary.
