Jeanne Tschoepe Albrecht is the owner of Cruise and Tour Center—and will be the first to admit that she is addicted to travel, especially cruises. She is zealous…finding the best match for your interests, time, budget and style —whether it’s a cruise, walking trip, bus tour or immersion visit to one city. Jeanne’s assistance doesn’t stop when the cruise/tour is booked; she can take care of the myriad of details before, during and after your trip: travel insurance (even if you have pre-existing medical conditions), transfers, hotels, excursions, tour guides, etc.  She and her husband Don have enjoyed 20+ cruises in the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Australian/New Zealand, Hawaii, Baltic, Greece, South America and Alaska…and several River Cruises throughout Europe.  Next up: river cruise on the Rhine and car trip to Lake Como and Cinque Terre. Jeanne is also an independent Public Relations/Special Events consultant and coordinator, working as a consultant for a variety of incredible commercial and non-profit clients, and as a contract freelancer for large and small PR, marketing and branding firms.

Sherry Garman’s love of travel began as a teenager with yearly ski trips all over the United States and Canada, eventually leading her to a career as a flight attendant with Continental/United Airlines. She also enjoyed a career in sales and marketing for almost twenty years and has lived throughout the United States. A few of her trips have included cruising Tahiti and the Society islands and snorkeling through black pearl farms, enjoying the most romantic Greek Island, Santorini with its brilliant sunsets, along with many trips to Hawaii, and cruises through the Caribbean. Her career came full circle when she became a travel consultant to help clients experience that same excitement, see the world, create beautiful experiences, and build a lifetime of memories.
