The journey is half the joy.

I'm Denise Cabalza — a nurse anesthetist by training, a cruiser by obsession, and a travel advisor by very happy accident. After years of planning trips for family and friends, I made it official: DC Cruise Travel is my way of bringing that same care and detail to anyone who'll let me.

I specialize in family voyages and first-time cruisers — the people who want the magic without the spreadsheets. I'll handle the research, the timing, the cabin choice, the dining, the excursions. You handle the deciding what to wear to the captain's dinner.

"Half the fun of a vacation is the planning and anticipation. I want yours to feel like part of the adventure — smoother, more comfortable, effortless from day one."
