Andrea Auger

At Vacations by Andrea, I believe travel should transform the way you see the world and yourself. Travel isn’t only about visiting new places; it’s about deepening your understanding of culture, history, and the joy of discovery.


As a former teacher and homeschool mom, I know firsthand how powerful travel can be for creating perspective and building lifelong memories. 


I carry that mindset into every trip I plan.


I take the time to listen closely, ensuring that each itinerary reflects not only your destination goals but also the type of experience you want to have.


From luxury cruises to immersive safaris or rail journeys across breathtaking landscapes, Vacations by Andrea is committed to crafting seamless, worry-free adventures that leave you inspired, enriched, and eager for your next journey.

Our Speciality

At Vacations by Andrea, I specialize in luxury cruising, wildlife safaris, and luxury rail journeys, each designed to be immersive, eye-opening, and unforgettable.


For luxury cruising, I match clients with the right river and ocean itineraries, handling every detail from staterooms to shore excursions so you can simply enjoy sailing in style.


My safari and wildlife trips take you to extraordinary places, from African savannas to polar landscapes, curated for seamless logistics and meaningful encounters with nature.


And with luxury rail, I combine slow travel with world-class service, offering breathtaking views and cultural immersion across Europe and beyond.


Clients choose me not just for itineraries but for opportunities to connect with the world in a deeper way, leaving each journey not only refreshing but transformative.
