Cruise Masters Adds Another Division

	Co-owners Christine and Paul Niskanen

When we recently arrived at our safari camp in Botswana, we saw a prominent sign, "Welcome Cruise Masters!" A day or two later our guide asked us what cruise ships had to do with a fine safari? A good question! On another occasion one of our good travelers came in to see us and told us how she had just returned from a week at one of Hawaii's top resorts. She told us, "I wish you sold resort vacations". Well, we do. And, yes, our name confuses many travelers and many travel suppliers when we plan vacations incorporating hotels, spas, villas, resorts, trains and other non-cruising related travel components.

Though we have sold cruises for 20 years and still sell them vigorously today, a rapidly increasing segment of our business does not include cruise travel. Therefore, rather than changing our name, we are adding a new division, Concierge Travel Advisors.

As you look through this website, you'll see our team's remarkable capabilities including extensive training and up-close, first-hand experiences on every continent. Of course, we cannot say that each of us has traveled to Antarctica or Sorrento or Nairobi but at least one or more of us has. Since we work as a team, we'll draw upon our team's collective knowledge to plan the best vacation for you.

It's no wonder both Travel + Leisure and Conde Nast Traveler magazines recognize us as one of our country's top 128 agents.

If you have questions or concerns about this new addition to our family, please don't hesitate to call or e-mail.
