Cruises and Charters
Luxury Cruises and Yacht Charters
I'm Beverly Schulte, and at Paradise Travel I plan luxury cruises and yacht charters in the Caribbean, Mexico, and Europe. Some trips want a small ship where the crew learns your name. Others want a private catamaran and a captain who knows the quiet anchorages. I help you figure out which one is yours, then I book it.

Cruises I book, and who they suit
I'm certified with Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, Silversea, Scenic, Azamara and Celebrity, and I hold 60+ professional certifications across cruise, resort and destination programs. That covers a lot of ground, from a small yacht-style ship in the Mediterranean to a big ship the grandkids won't want to leave.
River cruises are what I suggest to people who've never cruised and aren't sure they'd like it. You're in town most days. The Danube at Christmas is the one I'm building a hosted group around, and the details are on the hosted journeys page.

Private charters
Yacht and catamaran charters
A crewed charter works best for a family or a group of friends who want the boat to themselves. You pick the islands, the crew cooks, and nobody's fighting for a lounger. I'm destination certified in the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, and that's where most of my charter requests land. I also arrange charters in the wider Caribbean and the Mediterranean, and I pair the sailing with a few resort nights on either end. The full charter guide is on my private yacht and catamaran charters page.
Charters pair well with a honeymoon or a milestone birthday. For the land side of the islands, read my Caribbean and Mexico luxury travel page.
