My Story
I learned to love travel from my parents. My father was a curious explorer willing to travel roads to see where they led, and my mother enjoyed fine dining, museums, and shows. So, my curiosity always led me to explore to learn about people, food, music, and cultures.
Travel Style
I love traveling in style, comfort with value. Explore local cultures, arts, music, and food! I believe traveling well means using all of our senses to return with lasting memories.

Howard customized my journey at every step. Howard was not just a travel agent but a curator of a one of a kind experience. He listened attentively and provided the perfect accommodations, sights, and suggestions to make this trip exceed my expectations. What I also appreciated was that he also allowed it to still feel like a vacation with enough rest in between. Wish I could give him 10 stars instead of 5!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Howard Tucker to plan my trip to Salvador, Brazil, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Howard's professionalism was truly outstanding. From our initial consultation, he was attentive, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable about Salvador and the surrounding area. He listened carefully to my interests and budget, and crafted a personalized itinerary that perfectly matched my needs. He was always available to answer my questions and address any concerns, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. I felt confident that I was in good hands, and his expertise truly enhanced my trip. The combination of Howard's excellent planning and the Mercure's prime location and amenities made my trip to Salvador truly unforgettable. I highly recommend both Howard Tucker and the Mercure Salvador Rio Vermelho to anyone looking for a wonderful travel experience in Brazil.

Visiting Philadelphia - UNESCO World Heritage City
Independence Park Hotel, BW Premier Collection is a wonderful gem located in the heart of the historic Old City section of Philadelphia. It is a fully renovated, nationally registered historic hotel. Very comfortable rooms, cozy and warm on chilly Fall evenings. Friendly and attentive service team. This hotel is excellent for families, couples and solo travelers. The best part is the location. The hotel is within short walking distance to all the major museums, monuments, restaurants and parks. The Museum of the American Revolution is literally across the street. Please refer to my Experience Philadelphia travel guide for my Insider recommendations.

Breathtaking Sunset in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil
The Fera Palace Hotel is an iconic landmark located in the Historic Centro District in Salvador. Fully renovated, the hotel windows gleams in pastel sunsets. I took my wife and daughter to enjoy the rooftop lounge and experience the elegant accommodations.

The Magnificent Ocean Blue of Bahia, Brazil
I revisited the first hotel I stayed in Bahia, Brazil. I was first drawn to the Mercure Salvador Rio Vermelho by the infinity pool. Blue water in the pool. Blue ocean. Blue sky. The Bahia shades of blue. My dream was to sit at a Brazilian poolside over the Azul blue of the Atlantic with a cocktail in hand...

The Elegance of Trancoso, Bahia, Brazil
In October 2023, I went to experience the elegance of Trancoso with my wife for our anniversary. I read the reviews of the Etina Casa Hotel and was intrigued by the privacy and wonderful amenities. Our visit was amazing; Trancoso in a must-see place in Brazil.
