Travel style

As a former finance exec in a large corporation, I understand the needs of the business traveler and the cost controls needed for travel expense management. On the leisure side, I have been taking my family on international trips since my children were toddlers, and have learned first-hand what makes a great itinerary across ages and interests. For the past few years, I have been enjoying planning all-inclusive girls' trips for my mom-friends!

Ruth 's reviews

Booking experience was good. If I needed to do it again wouldn't have done Board for dinner - but I think that was Pete's call.

She was a wonderful cruise ship director ! Organized and considerate of everyone. Very detailed and allowed the attendees to just relax and not have to worry about what to plan next . Thank you for an unforgettable week!

Ruth Walker was exceptional! She single-handedly took care of 21 moms to give us an incredible, memorable and fun-filled first-time experience on Virgin Voyages. Our dinners were pre-booked, outfits color-coordinated and we became famous on and off the ship as “The Mom group”. Ruth even arranged a special behind-the-scene private viewing with the enchanted magician. We have experienced a voyage never to be forgotten and look forward to the next adventure Ruth will plan for us.
