Stacia Lynch, Owner & Travel Advisor Scenic Locations Leisure Travel
Hello! My name is Stacia, I'm a travel advisor and own Scenic Locations Leisure Travel, LLC. I work with clients worldwide to create custom curated travel itineraries. After working in healthcare administration and management for over 20 years and traveling for respite from stressful positions, I decided it was time to change pace and take care of me. I realized traveling is not just something that I enjoy but something that fills my cup and keeps me motivated.
I am an avid traveler and enjoy researching and traveling to new destinations and cultures. I support my clients from day one until they return home and beyond, which means I am available to my clients if something goes sideways, even if I am traveling myself!
I specialize in leisure travel for adults and families worldwide and my passion is curating custom itineraries that allow you to create treasured memories in all the world's Scenic Locations.
Leisure, group, and special occasion travel includes not just all-inclusive destinations but tours and cruises as well. I love the islands and all they have to offer! I am working my way through visiting our world’s islands and hold specialist designations for many of them. There aren't any beaches that are the same in any part of the world; they are all unique and that is what makes it fun to see them all.
Cruise travel is how I started my own travels many years ago. It's an economical way to see many places in a short amount of time and then you can re-visit your favorite locations for longer trips in the future. I also hold specialist certifications for many of the major cruise lines.
Romance travel is one of my other passions. I love working with newlyweds to create a special experience for their honeymoon. Whether that is an adventurous trip with an abundance of activities or relaxing from all the planning and excitement of their nuptials in a romantic destination; their honeymoon is custom tailored to their needs.
I have traveled extensively for business thus am familiar with the details a business traveler needs to ensure a successful trip and welcome the opportunity to partner with business travelers, even if that is just for assistance with their flights.
I am a member of ASTA (The American Society of Travel Advisors), CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association), The Family Travel Planning Association, The Travel Institute, and Travel Leaders Network. I am continually educating myself on new destinations through courses and hands-on experiences. I am in the process of receiving my CTA (Certified Travel Advisor) designation and my Leisure Travel Certification.
I look forward to partnering with you to create new memories on your next vacation, group trip or business trip!
