The most rewarding part of this work is being able to share experiences that I have personally lived and loved myself. Whether it is a river cruise through Europe, an expedition through the Galápagos, or a multigenerational journey through South America, I love helping clients experience the world in a way that feels seamless, enriching, and deeply memorable.

With more than four decades in the travel industry, including nearly 40 years with Tully Luxury Travel, Loretta brings an extraordinary depth of knowledge and long standing industry relationships to every journey she designs. Specializing in luxury and expedition cruising, she has built a loyal multigenerational client base through her thoughtful guidance, attention to detail, and ability to truly understand how each traveler defines luxury for themselves.

Her travels have taken her across Europe, East Asia, South America, Africa, and the Mediterranean, with a particular passion for expedition and river cruising. Loretta has experienced the Galápagos three separate times aboard different cruise lines and has sailed on numerous river cruises throughout France, Portugal, Italy, the Rhine, and the Danube with leading luxury partners including Uniworld, Riverside, Viking, Tauck, and AMA Waterways. Clients especially value her firsthand perspective, calm expertise, and ability to create journeys that feel both effortless and unforgettable.

Sandra and Loretta of Tully Luxury Travel are outstanding. We've used them for three voyages already, and we would not take a cruise without going through them. Normally, we handle our own flights and hotels, but this time life got in the way and we asked Sandra to handle all of that a bit late, and she took care of everything, quickly, masterfully, and cordially. Our shipmates have been impressed and envious of the tours and excursions we booked through Loretta and Sandra of Tully because they were so much better and luxurious than the tours and excursions offered through the cruise line. We've also noticed that all of the transfer drivers Tully booked for us in Europe were either ex-law enforcement or ex-military special operators. I don't know if that was intentional, or coincidence, but it added a nice level of comfort.
