Cathy Udovch: There and Back Again Travel

Cathy Udovch: There and Back Again Travel This is all about cruises & tours, those I've gone on & those I hope to go on. Contact me to book your travel. Affiliate of TravelStore

I'll share tips for shore excursions, pre & post cruise hotel & activity suggestions, & the places on my wishlist. I am a Travel Agent with over 15 years of experience in selling cruises and special needs travel, with destination specialties in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific along with Europe for cruises, escorted or customized land tours. I also work with groups, be they family reu

nions or special affinity groups, both on cruises and land tours. I began traveling at age 2 when my father became a pilot for a major airline, and have had a wanderlust ever since then. I travel as often as I can now, both for pleasure and for the learning experience of new destinations, the hotels, and tours available to my clients, all to make sure I can give you first-hand knowledge of where to go and what it will be like when you arrive. When it comes to special needs travel, I've been doing this nearly my entire life as well. My younger sister has Down Syndrome and has required certain accommodations over the years for her travel. I also worked in Group Homes for Developmentally Disabled Adults for 16 years and have a Master's Degree in Special Education, so I look at every travel experience I take with an eye towards what is accessible and for whom, and what is not accessible. I have assisted people with CPAP machines, assistance dogs, diabetes, Alzheimers, COPD, wheelchairs and/or walkers, dialysis, and more, so please feel free to ask me any questions, even if your special need is not on this list. I am always looking to add to my list of Resources. Feel free to email me at [email protected] for any query you might have.

The Winter months are when most people plan vacations, mostly because it is cold where they live and they want to go somewhere warm, and maybe a little tropical.

With that in mind, I introduce you to a little slice of heaven in Fiji. There are dozens of islands and resorts to choose from, including some islands that just have one resort, to some of the bigger islands that have lots of options.

And for those of you with families, Fiji is an awesome place for kids because of the nanny/buddy system. Nearly every resort has a kids program, and the nannies and buddies take such good care of the kids, showing them all sorts of games and teaching them about the ocean and the creatures within, that they don't want to go home.

Anyhow, if you are looking to escape the recent spate of Blizzards, reach out to me and I'll get you down to where they Sing you into their resorts, and they sing you away as well. Fiji is not a place you forget once you've been.

Emirate's Wolgon Valley Resort, operated by One&Only at the time these videos were taken back in 2016, parted ways around the time there was a landslide blocking the only road in and out of the valley. I've been waiting for over two years to hear what might be happening with this stunning property, and just discovered that Emirates is now teaming up with Ritz-Carlton to launch their first Lodge experience. Read the press release from Emirates and Ritz-Carlton below. My videos are nowhere near as good as the video at the bottom of the article below.
