  • I have a great winter escape option for you this year. Instead of travelling in peak summer, this Journey aboard EXPLORA II from Rome to Barcelona (05 March to 14 March 2027) lets you experience places like Florence, Cannes, and Málaga when they’re quieter, easier to explore, and far more enjoyable.

It’s a more relaxed way to travel across multiple countries, with sunny days, less waiting, and more time to enjoy each destination without the pressure of high season.

Let’s secure your Journey while availability is still there.

  • ❤️ MORE THAN ONE VACATION…
For Steph Austera, being a travel advisor isn’t just about planning your next trip. It’s about building a relationship that can last through years of adventures.
“I don’t just want to plan your trip—I want to get to know you and become your trusted travel resource that will grow with your family’s wants and needs over the years.”
Your first trip together might be your honeymoon. 💍
Then a family trip to Disney World. 🏰
And a few years later, an unforgettable family adventure through Europe. 🌍
As your life changes, the way you travel changes too—and Steph wants to be there to help you plan what comes next.
✈️ Where will your next adventure take you?

Why Use a Travel Agent for Luxury Trip and Vacation Planning?

Unlike an online-only service that finds you cheap fares, WorldTravelService® is a complete travel management platform that facilitates your entire trip and beyond. In addition to getting you the most cost-effective fares and rates on the luxury vacations of your dreams, we provide you with a range of value-added benefits that you simply won’t find anywhere else.

Our Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC leisure travel agents are invaluable when it comes to:

  • Tested and trusted insider knowledge. Your travel agent brings you destination expertise, discounted hotel rates and airfares, all-in-one package deals, and exclusive specials and promotions. Helping you determine your budget and refine your options is the first relief that comes with working with a professional.
  • Savings that go beyond mere discounts. Think a travel agent is too expensive? Think again. Rather than paying more for your vacation, you are likely to pay less—and get more. A good travel agent is your advocate and puts your interests first.
  • Peace of mind—at every step. Your vacation planner is there for you before, during, and after your trip. And that bonus peace of mind comes at no extra charge.

So, what have you been daydreaming about? Hiding away on a tropical island? Cycling through Singapore? Cruising the Mediterranean or touring Europe? Start planning your trip by contacting a WorldTravelService®  travel agent today.
