What bespoke means here
From scratch
Every itinerary starts with how you like to travel: your pace, your tastes, the room you want to wake up in.
One advisor
You deal with me from first idea to final day. If a flight cancels or a port changes, you have one person to call.
Relationships
Long-standing contacts with hotels, cruise lines and villa managers, built over eighteen years in the industry.
Independent
No brand quota to fill. I recommend what genuinely suits you.
The gap between a beautiful listing photo and the actual stay can be significant. Closing that gap is the job.Christopher Alford Adams
Sail Seabourn with a host already on board
On select Seabourn departures, guests booked through my host agency's network receive extras the brochure does not include. You travel independently, with a few thoughtful moments arranged for you along the way.
- A private welcome reception early in the voyage
- A dedicated host on board for questions and plans
- An exclusive shore event in a chosen port
- On select Venture and Pursuit expeditions, $400 shipboard credit per suite in place of the shore event
Hosted benefits apply to select departures and may not cover every segment of a combination voyage. If a sailing is no longer hosted, the shore event may be replaced with shipboard credit. Details confirmed in writing before booking.
Eighteen years on both sides of the gangway
I'm Christopher Alford Adams. I spent my career inside the hotels and ships my clients now book, working on board and shoreside. That's where I learned what separates a good stay from a remarkable one, and which details are worth fussing over.
Cruising is still my favorite way to see the world: unpack once and let the coastline come to you. Today I plan independently, for travelers who want it done properly.

Meet Skylar Celeste
Happiness Ambassador
The collection is named for Skylar, my labradoodle, service dog and constant travel companion. She has taught me firsthand how much planning goes into traveling with an animal.
If you travel with a service animal, I can help you work through airline, cruise line and border requirements well before departure.
