Your Hosts

Marc & Judy

We're Judy and Marc, the team behind Twin Palms World Travel and Twin Palms TV. Judy is a travel advisor who loves the matchmaking part of this work — listening to what you actually want, then pointing you to the right ship instead of just any ship. Marc is right alongside for all of it, usually with a camera in hand, so the people who follow along get an honest look at what a trip is really like.

Between us we've sailed a lot of lines, big and small, and we've learned what a calm, well-run, unhurried experience is worth. Best of all, when you sail with us you're not handed a booking and a wave goodbye — we'll be on board with you the whole way, and you'll always have a real person to call before, during, and after.
