What Our Travelers Say

“Terri planned our Cancun trip for 18 people. Kept us all organized and had all the answers! She was able to work with the resort to add my daughter almost last minute for a great rate. Her knowledge, expertise and willingness to help made this one of the best trips my family has ever had! 1000% recommend this team!”
“I highly recommend Blue Water Travel. Just returned from Europe. Terri's planning was perfect. All of our flights went through without a hitch. No long layovers, able to get through customs, no delays or missed connections. The boutique hotel in old town Zurich was perfectly located to walk and see all Zurich had to offer. She was quick to respond to questions about getting cheese through customs!! Also encouraged us to get TSA precheck, which was invaluable!”
“What an awesome trip, thank you Terri and Blue Water Travel! We had a great time on our vacation to Mexico! We stayed at The Fives Resort in Playa Del Carmen. Beautiful inclusive resort! Terri took care of everything from beginning to end when it came to our airline tickets, our airport transfers, all of the arrangements and inclusivity at the resort, and was willing and able to book any of the excursions or trips that my family may have wanted to go on! We sincerely appreciate Terri's help, and I will definitely be using Terri in the future, and look forward to many many more memories made with my family!”

Frequently asked questions
Why use a travel advisor instead of booking online?
When you book with Blue Water Travel, you gain a real person who advocates for you before, during, and after your trip. We handle changes, solve problems, and often secure perks and pricing you won't find on your own — at no extra cost to you for most bookings.
Do you charge planning fees?
Many of our cruise, resort, and tour bookings are compensated by our travel partners, so there is no fee to you. For complex custom itineraries, destination weddings, or extensive research projects, we discuss any planning fees upfront before work begins.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Lake Lotawana, Missouri and proudly serve Kansas City, Lees Summit, Blue Springs, and travelers nationwide. Consultations are available in person, by phone, and via video.
Can you help with destination weddings and honeymoons?
Absolutely. We specialize in destination weddings, honeymoons, and vow renewals — coordinating guest travel, room blocks, group rates, and romantic add-ons at resorts and cruise lines worldwide.
How far in advance should I book?
For peak seasons, destination weddings, and popular cruise sailings, we recommend 9–12 months ahead. That said, we can often find great options on shorter notice — reach out and we'll advise based on your dates and destination.
