About
The origins of this travel agency is rooted in our family's travel experiences. My wife Lynn and I have raised three now adult successful sons, Joseph, Joshua, and Jacob. Ever since our sons have been young, we have tried to provide memorable yet cost effective travel experiences. Now, as all of our sons are establishing their own independent lives, we knew that opportunities for us to get together for the typical family vacation were going to be more and more elusive.
So we chose to make it a priority to create those opportunities. So, many factors must be considered when choosing and planning a trip. When you have that many people involved, with their own schedules and commitments, the planning and decision making can be quite difficult. Now we would like to help your family too.
We chose a cruise vacation for the many benefits a cruise can provide for a group of travelers that all have their own interests and desires for activities or relaxation. Before this, we never even considered a cruise as an option. Our perception of cruising was that it was to expensive for a "normal family" such as ourselves to afford. We were so wrong! We found that the value was tremendous. The costs compared to the benefits can be greater then so many other travel or vacation options.
Additionally, for our first cruise we navigated the complexities of the optional "Packages" that are offered over and above the base fare of the cruise. These add-ons provide the guest access to drinks and dining experiences that are not included. We chose a number of these additional packages that we felt were right for our circumstances. We can help you determine what might be right for you and your family, based on your unique needs.
For us, what transpired was a trip that exceeded our expectations, and experiences that far outweighed the costs. From that moment on, this trip fostered within us a deep-seated ever-present desire to "Get out there".
What we found was that cruising is a great vacation option whether you travel as a single, as a multi-generational family or anything in between. Additionally, accommodations are seamlessly made for travelers with special needs, such as mobility issues and special dietary requirements. Whether your idea of a perfect vacation is quite relaxation or action and adventure, 3J Travel is ready to match you with your ideal cruise experience.
For families with kids, there are many ships with a variety of children's programs and activities. We at 3J Travel want to make sure families are aware of all the kid-friendly features and options that are available on cruise vacations. With our help, vacationers can build a comprehensive plan that easily meshes both adult's and children's distinct interests. There is no better way to a great vacation experience and life-long memories. The key to getting it right the first time, is determining your needs and wants and matching you and your family with the the right ship with the right features and offerings.
So, when you find yourself considering your next vacation options, 3J Travel is eager to answer any questions you may have. Our goal is to help provide an unforgettable experience that will be cherished for a lifetime . We'll help you "Get out there".
