Travel Agent: Rachael Buckelew

With a background in customer service and having traveled the globe extensively, becoming a travel advisor was the perfect way for me to combine two of my passions. I love building lasting relationships with members while helping them explore the world!

My areas of expertise are Alaska (where I once worked as a small-boat guide and camped along the Alaska State Ferry!), Hawaii, Europe, Vietnam, London, and destinations across the U.S. I’ve traveled by river cruise, bike (including a ride from Bruges to Amsterdam!), backpacked through Europe, road-tripped across the U.S., explored Vietnam on a guided vacation, lived on a Hawaiian tea farm, and cruised through Mexico. My most recent trip took me to Vietnam, and I’m heading to Mexico’s Tren Maya region, as well as Albania and Montenegro next.

I specialize in special occasion travel, adventure experiences, luxury escapes, solo journeys, and family trips. Whether you're looking to backpack off the beaten path or celebrate a milestone in style, I bring firsthand experience and a deep love for authentic, immersive travel. Wherever you’re dreaming of, I’m here to help you get there—with insight, enthusiasm, and care.
