Our journey began 37 years ago with a wedding—and a shared love of adventure. On our 10th anniversary, we traveled to Oahu and Kauai and instantly fell in love with Hawaii’s beauty, warmth, and rich culture. That trip sparked a lifelong passion for exploring not just places, but the people, traditions, and flavors that make each destination unforgettable. Over the years, we’ve explored all four Hawaiian Islands, soaked in the sun of Cancun/Riviera Maya and Puerto Vallarta, wandered the historic streets of Italy, Barcelona, and Greece, and marveled at the wonders of Israel, Turkey, Cyprus, Ireland, and Scotland—not to mention cruises in Eastern, Western, and Southern Caribbean, the Mediterranean, Mexican Riviera, and Bahamas. While we love visiting new countries, what we treasure most is connecting with local cultures and, of course, sampling their incredible cuisine.  After eight years working as a travel advisor with an agency, helping clients book unforgettable vacations, we turned our passion into something bigger—and Pack Your Bags Travel was born.  Now, we get to chart our own course—designing dream vacations for others, one passport stamp at a time.
