Alotta Travel

Hello! I’m Rick Talotta, and I’ve been working full time in the travel industry for over 2 years. Travel is my passion — not just the destination, but the planning, the details, and the joy of turning someone’s vacation dreams into reality. Over the years I’ve been fortunate enough to explore the world in many ways: I’ve booked and enjoyed 12 cruises, taken 10+ trips to Walt Disney World, and visited an array of destinations including sports-venues, weekend getaways, and cities like New York City, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Niagara Falls — among others.

​

What these trips taught me is this: whether you’re locking in a huge bucket-list vacation or simply heading out for a well-earned weekend escape, organization and thoughtful planning make all the difference. When you’re investing in a vacation — both financially and emotionally — you want it to be smooth, stress-free, and full of fun.

​

That’s where I come in. As your travel consultant, I’m not just handing you a booking confirmation; I’m designing your journey, tailored exactly to you. From selecting the right cruise line and cabin, to choosing the perfect hotel at Disney, to mapping out a city-break itinerary with just the right mix of relaxation and adventure — I’ll cover the details.

​

Here’s what I offer:

• Personalized itinerary planning: I’ll take your preferences, your budget, and your time into account and build an itinerary that reflects you — not just a “package” from the internet. 

• Expert destination knowledge & insider tips: Because I’ve traveled widely myself and booked many different types of trips, I know what works, what’s worth the upgrade, and what you might want to skip. Consultants like me bring tailored advice that goes beyond what you’ll find via cookie-cutter searches.

• Full-service support before, during and after travel: I’ll help with everything from flights/hotels/transfers, to documentation and special requests, and I’ll be your point of contact in case surprises come up while you’re away.

• Stress-free booking & best value: One of the biggest benefits of working with a travel consultant is that I handle the legwork so you don’t have to spend hours researching. You get peace of mind, and often access to deals, upgrades or amenities that might not be obvious online.

 

Every trip has its story: the moment you step off the ship after a perfect cruise. The look on your child’s face when they meet their favorite character at Disney. The excitement of arriving in NYC or Las Vegas where the energy is palpable. I love creating those moments for people, and making sure the story is as seamless as possible.

If you’re ready to turn your next vacation into something you’ll remember — without the stress of trying to figure everything out yourself — I’d love to help. Let’s chat about your dream, your timeline, your budget, and together we’ll build something special.
