Christy Bartlett
I founded Daydream Cruise and Travel in 2014 with one clear vision: to turn extraordinary travel dreams into cherished, lifelong memories.
Travel has always been more than a profession for me — it’s a true passion. For over 30 years, my husband and I have shared a love of exploring the world together while raising our two children. Those experiences shaped my belief that travel isn’t just about where you go — it’s about how you feel while you’re there, and the memories you carry home.
​
Today, I design exceptional, luxury travel experiences tailored for discerning travelers — whether you’re a busy professional in need of a seamless escape, an empty nester ready to rediscover adventure, or enjoying the freedom of retirement. I specialize in ocean and river cruises, along with custom-tailored European itineraries, crafting journeys that are effortless, refined, and deeply personalized.
​
My extensive personal relationships with leading cruise lines and premier hoteliers allow my clients to enjoy unparalleled access, exclusive amenities, and VIP privileges. From complimentary upgrades and private tours to behind-the-scenes experiences and thoughtful surprises, every detail is curated to elevate your journey beyond the ordinary.
​
As an award-winning travel advisor, I am known for meticulous planning and seamless execution. I handle every detail with care and precision, so you can relax and immerse yourself fully in the beauty, culture, and elegance of your destination.
In short, I transform travel into something truly extraordinary.
​
If you’re ready to explore the world with special privileges, effortless luxury, and unforgettable experiences, I would be honored to design your next exceptional escape.
