My quest to travel and experience other cultures came from my English mother who traveled professionally as an air hostess at a time when travel was at its most romantic and in its golden age – after World War II.
Her stories of Russian pilots flying in and out of the wings of American Overseas Airline planes traveling into war-torn West Berlin live on as vivid memories.
At an early age, she took me on a transatlantic cruise, showed me London, enchanted me with the English countryside, and encouraged me to experience the culture and food of Paris and France – I was hooked.
I am a graduate of Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and later obtained a legal degree with an emphasis on international law from McGill University in Montreal where I met my wife, Rita a vivacious Latin American – again I was hooked.
Together we founded Royal Adventures, at first concentrating on Latin America and later expanding to Antarctica, Europe, Australia, Asia, U.S. and beyond.
At Royal Adventures, we specialize in educational travel and design and build experiences. We hope you join us on a future meticulously handcrafted Royal Adventure.
Our excellent tour directors on expertly planned itineraries will escort you to extraordinary places that will turn you into a storyteller with memories that will live on long after your return.
Thank you for entrusting your trip to us for it is your adventure and our passion.
I have been developing educational travel programs for top non-profit organizations throughout the U.S. and Canada since 1985.
I was raised in El Salvador where my father was a coffee producer and exporter.
My family instilled in me an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to experience the world.
I have traveled internationally since the age of two and as a student traveled on several exchange programs.
I received my undergraduate degree with a major in art and business from McGill University in Montreal, Canada where I met my husband, John.
It was during a trip to Costa Rica while having breakfast on the veranda overlooking spectacular 360 degree views of the Pacific Ocean and Manuel Antonio National Park, that we agreed we needed to start our own travel company.
That was the beginning. Since then, we continue to explore new destinations and revisit existing ones to bring customized educational travel programs to some of the most prestigious institutions of learning in the United States as well as private groups of friends and families.
I am a proud mother and new empty-nester of three beautiful adult kids – my treasures, and make my home in California with my husband John and always super trooper travel companion.
We hope to have the pleasure of your company on an adventure to one of our uniquely designed travel programs.
Our mission is to create meaningful and inspirational programs that nurture our travelers’ passion for learning and discovery while providing exceptional, personalized customer service. We firmly believe that every travel experience has the potential to enrich our lives and minds by inspiring personal growth, cultural understanding, and joy.
To develop a repository of educational travel programs and to strengthen connections between people across the globe through shared experiences and a passion for continuous exploration and learning.
