Hi, I’m Lori Beard, owner of The Wandering Turtle Travel. I started this journey with a passion for helping people experience the joy, excitement, and connection that travel creates. I believe travel should feel inspiring and stress-free, and my goal is to make planning your next adventure simple, personalized, and enjoyable.
I specialize in cruise vacations and empty nest travel experiences, helping individuals and couples rediscover adventure and create meaningful memories during a new season of life. Whether you’re dreaming of sailing to tropical destinations, planning a romantic getaway, celebrating a milestone, or simply ready to explore what’s next, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
While cruises and empty nest escapes are my specialty, I love helping clients create all types of travel experiences—from relaxing beach vacations and family trips to custom itineraries and bucket-list adventures.
I am an affiliate with Cornerstone "Let's Go Travel".

At The Wandering Turtle Travel, every itinerary is thoughtfully designed with care, personal attention, and the belief that life is meant to be explored.
