I am a Verified Travel Advisor and have owned Travel Paradise 4 U LLC for nearly 2.5 years. I have helped couples, families, friends and solo travelers plan and book their dream vacations. I grew up in Germany and traveled throughout Europe including France, Gibraltar, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria and Luxembourg. I have also visited Mexico, the Dominican Republic and the Cayman Islands. While living in the US I have traveled to more than 40 states including Florida, Hawaii, Texas, Chicago, Missouri, Washington DC, Maine and New York. I enjoy traveling by car, train, rv and automobile and visiting new places, learning about the culture, trying local cuisine and meeting new people. In my free time I enjoy spending time with family, going to the beach, photography, reading and being around and creating art. I like helping people and have worked in the retail sales and non-profit industry for over 30 years. I look forward to combining all my knowledge and talents and helping you book your dream destination!

Here is what my clients are saying:

Anke has been amazing to work with while planning our honeymoon to Europe. Communication has been consistent which has been comforting. I will definitely recommend her to anyone and will hope to use her again in the future.

Anke has amazing hospitality. She is so attentive and has very quick responses. She made the vacation planning process as easy as possible!

 Anke paid attention to every detail planning our summer vacation to ensure we had everything we needed. She covered all the bases for our flight, hotel and cruise resulting in an amazing trip! From determining what we wanted to booking the flight and cruise, and following up with us before we left, she was on top of everything!

Amazing!
Anke was amazing! She listened to what we were looking for in a trip and gave us wonderful options to choose from. Anke kept up with everything from the booking all the way through the completion of the trip. She made sure we didn’t miss anything. Anke was thorough, professional and fun to work with.

Italy
This was a trip of lifetime! Four friends spent 11 days touring Rome, Tuscany, Florence and Venice. The hotels were fabulous and the private tours were personalized and just outstanding. We learned so much about the art and history of these beautiful cities. Highlights included wine tastings, a cooking class, time to wander through medieval cities, a tour of Prosecco country, and a 5 star gourmet lunch atop a hill with spectacular views. Thank you Anke! The trip was amazing and perfectly planned!
