About Unique Family Adventures LLC


Our Journey


Unique Family Adventures LLC has been an established member of the Cruise Planners franchise since 2014. We built this business on three things that never go out of style: honesty, integrity, and long-term client relationships.


Because travel is expensive. Your time is limited. And you deserve advice that’s based on fit—not whatever is easiest to book.




Mission Statement


To design travel experiences that match your ambitions—customized, well-paced, and handled with concierge-level care.




Who We Are


Unique Family Adventures plans cruises, Europe travel, multigenerational trips, and exploration travel for clients who want it done right.


That means:




  • You get clear recommendations (not a thousand options)




  • You get smart logistics (flights, pacing, transfers, pre/post planning)




  • You get a trip that feels seamless—because someone competent is actually managing the details






What We Plan


Multigenerational Travel


Traveling with grandparents, adult kids, and grandkids is incredible—when it’s planned correctly. We build multi-gen trips that balance different ages, budgets, and energy levels, including options like:




  • Family-focused river cruises such as Tauck Bridges and Adventures by Disney sailings




  • Itineraries with the right mix of together time and built-in flexibility




Cruises: Ocean + River


From Alaska to the Mediterranean and beyond, we help you choose the right cruise line, itinerary, and cabin strategy. We also plan European river cruises, and we’ll tell you plainly when river cruising is (or isn’t) a good match for your group.


Europe Travel


Europe is not the place to “wing it” if you want a smooth experience. We plan Europe with smart pacing—whether that’s a custom itinerary, an escorted tour, or a cruise-based approach that keeps logistics easy.


Exploration Travel


This is the bucket-list category—done with realism and experience. We plan exploration trips such as:




  • African safaris




  • Galápagos




  • Arctic




  • Antarctica




Exploration travel has limited space, seasonal windows, and supplier rules (including minimum ages on many trips). The right operator and the right timing matter—and that’s where we come in.


Caribbean Getaways


When you want sun and ease, we can also plan Caribbean vacations with the same “fit first” approach: the right island, the right property, the right room category, and the right time to go.




Why Choose Unique Family Adventures?


Customized, Not Cookie-Cutter


Your trip should match your travel style—not a “deal of the day.” We tailor recommendations to your priorities, pace, and comfort level.


Intelligent Choices, Not Information Overload


We help you make decisions you feel good about—cruise line selection, cabin categories, routing, and timing—so your vacation doesn’t start with stress.


Concierge-Level Support


From planning through travel, you’re not alone. If things change (and sometimes they do), you have a real advisor who knows your trip and can help you navigate options.


Relationships Matter Here


Many of our clients come back year after year because they don’t want to re-start from scratch every time. We learn how you travel—and we plan accordingly.




The Unique Family Adventures Difference




  1. Concierge-level service from first consult to return home




  2. Preparation + excitement so you feel confident before you go




  3. Long-term client relationships built on trust, not transactions






Travel with heart. Travel with a plan.
Unique Family Adventures LLC—where the details are handled, and the trip actually fits you.

Starr did an oustanding job once again assisting us in creating the itinenary for celebrating our 55th wedding anniversery. Every detail occurred on time as planned. After the Cruise, our trip to Capri was filled with many highlights. Once again,the Regent cruise was outstanding as expected. - Raymond L.
Starr amazes me every time. She wrangled my herd with air and car on very short notice. She's gone out of her way to plan a group cruise for me, and most recently booked my husband and me on our first cruise. She's even helped my friend long distance for a trip to Europe!
Starr is the BEST! - Jordan C.
Thank you Starr for helping us juggle the unexpected changes with our cruise last week. It ended up being a great end-of-summer family trip for us! - LUCINDA P.
Starr arranged our Tours by Locals excursion. Brad, our guide, was awesome! Our tour took us to Red Rocks, Golden, The Continental Divide, Breckenridge and back. He's an expert driver especially on all the switchbacks up and down the mountains. We highly recommend Brad! - Kathleen R.
Liked the hotels you chose in Ireland and Scotland. Gave us good travel advice - Diane M.
She did an awesome job. And was there for us when there were delays at the airport with any questions we had. Would definitely use her for our future travels
I don't know where to begin. This was such a well planned, wonderful trip! Starr was available to answer our questions no matter how silly they probably were and everything was so organized we really didn't have to do anything but show up! It was great having a very professional driver pick us up at the airport and then deposit us when our trip was over. In the past, we have had to take our chances that the driver wasn't surly, he could understand what we were saying and knew our destination. The tour itself was perfect. Our tour manager was bright, knowledgeable and saw to the needs of everyone in our group. I felt totally safe with our bus driver who was also very pleasant and helpful. I had never used Cruise planners or Colette before but I will definitely use them again.
Starr has always made traveling a pleasure! She listens to what we’re thinking and helps us choose just the right place. She goes above and beyond to be sure your trip is a special time you’ll always remember!
I was transferred to Starr after our last agent retired. She has been amazing and helpful on every trip. Even with all the changes & rescheduling throughout the pandemic. We highly recommend as she is full of knowledge when it comes to traveling and will not disappoint! Our latest trip to Costa Rica got a little messed up on way home. While we are very independent people and tried to fix and cancel flights ourselves…we were having a hard time as many flights were delayed/canceled that made wait times & disconnects very frustrating. I contacted Starr to see if she could help. Without hesitation she had us taken care of in mins! Life saver ???? I look forward to working with her in all our travels to come! Next up South Africa. Thank you for everything!
Starr helped me plan an amazing cruise vacation for my family. When the cruise we were considering was completely booked, she was able to get us the rooms we wanted and the dinner seating we wanted. Plus we got perks like a free specialty dining and gratuities included, that we would never have gotten on our own. She made everything so easy. Traveling with my college aged children and my parents could have been a challenge to meet everyone's needs, but she booked our hotel rooms, transfers and gave great advise on excursions that could keep everyone in the group happy. Thank you Starr, can't wait to plan the next vacation with you!! - KRISTIN M.
On October 27, 2019 my sister Maggie and I embarked on an adventure that turned out to be far more than we expected. Thanks to Starr & John Woldarski, my go to Cruise Planners, not only were the sights, sounds, food and company perfect but the included tours were educational as well as beautiful each and every day. Along with Starr and John our group also included BG & JG . Every evening whether we spent the day together of a tour or went our own way, we got together to talk about our experiences have a cocktail and eat dinner together. We became a family on this trip. Our guides were professional and extremely well versed in the history of every tour we were on. Our coach drivers professional and really good drivers! The staff on the Avalon ship was exceptional and the food just perfectly cooked and presented, like a 5 star restaurant every meal. Entertainment on the ship provided fun and camaraderie among all of the guests on the ship. I heartily recommend you contact Cruise Planners extraordinaire Starr & John! - Barbara B.
We are back! What a fun and strenuous and stimulating trip. All was incredibly planned, our tour guide was extraordinary. Crowds were very large, but the private tours to the Sistine Chapel and Uffizi were of a lifetime. No chaos until JFK! Egads!! But thank you for your help and guidance, see you soon, need sleep!??
Starr is AMAZING!!! I am so clueless and indecisive when it comes to traveling. She helped me pick a resort and find the best dates for the best price!! I am so excited for my vacation, and couldn’t have done it without her. I highly recommend her for all of your traveling needs!
We had an absolutely fantastic time in Bermuda! I treasure the time I got to spend with my family in such a glorious place! We made memories that I will treasure for years to come! Thank you, Starr, for planning and overseeing our trip every step of the way! You will forever be our travel guru!!??????????????
I highly recommend Cruise Planners! Starr is more than a travel agent, she goes above and beyond and does more than cruises. We have gotten to make some priceless memories as a couple and a family thanks to Starr. She has helped us to travel to fabulous destinations! She’s amazing as she checks off every detail of your trip and then is sure to keep an eye on your flights and is there to the rescue if a flight gets cancelled or delayed. I travel with peace of mind knowing she’s a phone call away!
I want to thank Starr Wlodarski, our travel agent for this wonderful family time. Everything was well planned out and was beyond our expectations. She notified everyone of little man's allergies and they made sure he was well taken care of. He was treated like a VIP. Actually we were all treated like VIPs! If you are looking for a truly professional dream vacation planner contact Starr. She is also Disney certified! Take a peek at our pics. There were many happy moments captured in them and many more that are captured in our hearts. Thank you, Starr!
