Portfolio

Trips I've planned, and how they came together.

This is the portfolio of a luxury travel advisor who books real trips for real people out of Sioux Falls. A family in Ireland, four countries in one European trip, an island hop in Hawaii, ten days in Cozumel for six, a winter week on the Texas coast. The reviews from these clients are on their own page.

Destination wedding at the Cliffs of Moher, July 2026

Ireland

The Cliffs of Moher and O'Brien's Tower at golden hour, County Clare, Ireland

A family trip built around a wedding at the Cliffs of Moher, with travel and timing sorted for the whole group.

  • Country house stays and transfers arranged so the family could focus on the wedding, not the logistics.
  • Day-of timing and local contacts handled, including the coastal towns the family wanted to see.
  • A private guide for the Cliffs of Moher area, which gave everyone a break from driving.

We had an absolutely exceptional experience with our travel agent for our trip to Ireland. From the very beginning, every detail was handled with such care, professionalism, and thoughtfulness. Traveling internationally can feel overwhelming, but we were able to truly enjoy our time in Ireland knowi...

How I plan Ireland

Anniversary trip, July 2026

Italy, France, England and Ireland

Four countries, one anniversary, and a family wedding at the end, with a private driver waiting at every stop.

  • Venice for one night, with a private gondola wine tasting led by a sommelier.
  • Florence for family and winery visits for his wine bar and Italian restaurant.
  • Paris for their anniversary, with lunch at the Eiffel Tower and a dinner cruise on the Seine.
  • Eurostar to London in the top class, a flight to Shannon, and the trip ending in Ennis for a family wedding at the Cliffs of Moher.
  • Private drivers, every hotel, every reservation, and bags lost in Chicago, found and couriered to the hotel in Paris.

Beverly was amazing to work with and delivered exactly what we wanted on our European trip to Italy, France, and Ireland. Every excursion (lunch at the Eiffel Tour, dinner cruise on the Seine, private guide around the coastal towns of Ireland) were magical. She even went above and beyond to locate o...

Europe luxury travel

Island hop, December 2025

Oahu and the Big Island, Hawaii

Rainbow Falls in Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii

A December trip to see Tara's daughter, who's stationed on Oahu, with a hop to Hilo in the middle. Tara and Ken got engaged on this trip.

  • Flights to Oahu and home, plus the inter-island hop to Hilo and back.
  • A rental Jeep for getting around.
  • A search for a calf roping event on Oahu and the Big Island. There wasn't one, so they heard that up front instead of chasing it.

Bev is your one stop shop for all your travel needs! When we were in Hawaii, our island hop excursion was excellent! She made everything effortless!

Group of six, ten days in April 2024

Cozumel and Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Ten days for six people where every day had a plan and nobody had to organize it in a group chat.

  • Jeep rental for the island loop, with Punta Sur Eco Beach Park, the lighthouse and a rum tasting.
  • The Otoch Mayan Experience with a private guide, and Chankanaab for the dolphin and manatee swim.
  • Glass bottom boat and reef snorkeling, San Miguel for dinner, and a ferry day in Playa del Carmen with the table already held.

My group of 6 spent ten days in Cozumel. Beverly at Paradise Travel planned the whole thing and that's the best decision we made. Jeep rental to tour the island with stops Punta Sur Eco Beach Park to see the crocodiles, the lighthouse and a rum tasting. The Otoch Mayan Experience with a private guid...

Winter getaway, February 2026

South Padre Island, Texas

A short winter escape without a passport, with the excursions sorted before arrival.

  • Beachfront hotel picked for the walk to the water rather than the brochure.
  • Parasailing, a Brownsville tour and the SpaceX site, spaced out so the week didn't feel like a schedule.

Our South Padre Winter Getaway was a great time the hotel was perfect and the employees were helpful. Our excursions of parasailing, Brownsville tour and Space X were enjoyable. Thanks for your help.

Snowbird stay, February 2026

South Padre Island, Texas

A full month in one room, which makes the room choice the whole trip.

  • The specific room category and view held, not just the hotel booked.
  • Location chosen for the errands too, so a month there worked like living somewhere.

We spent an amazing month at Hilton Garden Inn and Suites thanks to Beverly Schulte's great help! We had the perfect room with a beautiful view of the ocean! Loved the sunrise every morning. Beverly did a wonderful job getting the room we wanted and it was easy to get to where we wanted to go.

Couples trip, Hideaway at Royalton Negril

Negril, Jamaica

Beach cove and swim-up pools at Hideaway at Royalton Negril, Jamaica

The trip where the work was narrowing it down, not booking it.

  • Several rounds back and forth on resorts and islands until the fit was right.
  • Notes on the things people forget, sent before the deposit rather than after.

Beverly is amazing! She is so thoughtful and really listens to what you want out of your trip. She went back and forth with me many times to get the perfect resort and location that met all of our needs. I will definitely be working with her on our future trips!! She made it so effortless and easy t...

How I plan the Caribbean

Questions I get asked

About this work.

Yes. Every trip here is one I planned and booked, and most of them have a review from the client attached.

No. A winter week on the Texas coast and a month in one oceanfront room are on this page for a reason. The planning matters just as much when the flight is short.

Groups are some of my favorite work. Six people, one plan, and nobody trying to organize it in a group chat at midnight.

Next

Yours could be on this page.

Send me the rough shape of the trip, where, when, and who's coming, and I'll tell you what it takes to do it properly.
