About Ashley Gatewood

I make dream vacations come to life!

Traveling is a passion for many, but for me it's an obsession. Living overseas with a military spouse gave me the opportunity to really explore Europe. I've been blessed with the opportunity to visit over 30 countries in our incredible world. Now that we're stateside, based in Atlanta, I am thrilled to have the chance to share my love of exploration with you.

Paris, Rome, Alaskan cruises, Disney, Asia, adventure travel, leisure - anywhere you want to go, anything you have to see, I can help you get there!

I have spent years planning trips for myself, family, and friends. Becoming a travel professional means sharing my experience and expertise to provide a perfect, customized experience so you can create memories that last a lifetime.

Ashley booked our trip to Rome and on to a 9-night RC cruise in the Mediterranean. Everything was just as planned. She booked our private transportation to hotel, from hotel to cruise, and from cruise to airport. Drivers were on time and waiting with our names to make it easy. Our Rome hotel was a small boutique hotel that was perfect. It had a wonderful rooftop breakfast and was perfectly located in the middle of everything. All of our excursions were booked through Ashley (they were not RC excursions) and were excellent. Ashley made it easy at every step of the way. Her expertise on Europe was extremely valuable for all of our selections from hotel to transportation to excursions and of course the ship itself. Many thanks Ashley! We highly recommend her to everyone! - Tony G.

Working with Ashley is wonderful.

She anticipants our needs and understands our likes and dislikes. Can't say enough positive things about Ashley. Highly recommend using her as your travel professor.
Ashley planned a fabulous trip to Greece for 8 ladies. We stayed 3 nights in Athens, 3 on Santorini and 3 on Mykonos. Airport transfers were seamless and all the accommodations were lovely. Can’t wait to work with her on an upcoming trip to Spain! - Julie F.
Ashley has now planned three trips for me - all post-pandemic. She put together a fantastic trip to Croatia for me and my husband, a guided tour through Ireland for me and my old college roommate, and a family cruise to Alaska. All very different trips, all perfectly planned and executed! I've been so pleased with all three experiences, I'm sure I will use her again! - Elizabeth B.

Wonderful help & guidance on our first ever cruise celebrating out 60th anniversary. - Pat & Dale B.
Ashley Gatewood planned a wonderful fourteen day trip for my sister-in-law and I. We started in Amsterdam with a cruise extension, then a seven night Viking cruise and ended with an extension in Switzerland. She answered all of our questions and addressed any concerns. I am definitely looking forward to my next adventure with her planning. It was a great worry free experience! - Reta W.
Our Viking Rhine River cruise could not have been more wonderful! Ashley worked out every detail so the experience was easy and worry free. She has sent me on travels before, and I will definitely be asking her to send me somewhere again. Soon hopefully! - Susan G.
This was our first cruise in Hawaii, and for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Due to the significance of this trip to us, we decided to work with a cruise planner for that trip and Ashley Gatewood came highly recommended. We absolutely loved the cruise and our trip, and feel the success of that trip was most certainly a result of Ashely's patient and dedicated help throughout the planning process and even during the trip. We found Ashley to be extremely helpful, trustworthy, very friendly and candid in her advice and always willing to answer any question (from the most challenging to the most simple). It was all of those attributes and our confidence in her that moved us to select and book our second cruise through her. We couldn't recommend her more highly. - Jeffrey B.
