Shawn Goldberg
Westbury, New York Travel Agent
Luxury Advisor Who Loves Adventure and Wildlife
As much as I love to travel, I equally enjoy immersing myself in the process of creating and personalizing trips for my clients. A planner and organizer by nature, I spent the earlier part of my career in financial planning and operations within the technology industry. Becoming a Travel Advisor was a natural fit for me as I decided to follow my passion and make it my career. I apply the same consultative approach that made me successful in business to foster long-term relationships of trust and collaboration with my clients. I pride myself on the personal attention and attention to detail I provide. I truly love what I do and I would love to help you plan your next vacation!

For this once in a lifetime trip we decided to stay in a luxury villa instead of a traditional hotel. This enabled grandparents, cousins,... Read more from my Costa Rica story.

African Safaris
I have been very fortunate to experience not one but two African safaris so far in my lifetime. I can honestly say that these were life altering experiences and that if you are even mildly considering a safari that you should book one. Immediately.
My first safari was to experience the migration... Read more from my African Safaris story.

Perfect Getaway
Thanks so much for helping us figure out a brief getaway last month. You steered us to the perfect place for our three night escape and we really enjoyed it. Thank you again for your guidance. I can say with perfect hindsight you were right. The little touches you added also made us feel special - like the family picture in the amazing room you picked for us. This line of work really suits you! Thank you!!!
We Loved The VIP Treatment!
We LOVED the VIP Treatment, especially our upgrade to an oceanfront suite - thank you again so much! You can truly tell there's such a different and better experience booking through you than doing it online. Thank you again!
Best Trip Ever - Even During a Pandemic!
What an incredible vacation! From the moment we decided we were going to travel Shawn Goldberg was amazing, attentive and beyond patient! Once we arrived at The Grace Bay Resort we were treated like royalty! From our upgrade to a beautiful 3 bedroom villa overlooking the water to treats delivered to our room daily! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, because of you, we were able to share an incredible week as a family amidst the craziness of the times. Most importantly feeling safe!

Michelle - I am so glad that your family enjoyed Lake Placid as much as I knew they would! The videos of your kids wake boarding and tubing were priceless - and I know that seeing the site of the 1980 hockey championship was super special for your son. I can't wait to plan your next adventure!
