Paul

Founder & Luxury cruise specialist

Hi, I'm Paul—founder of NovaVia Travels, and yes, that's also me as 'The Real Travel Geek' if you've run into the content. I built this agency around the kind of cruising I actually love: the private, ship-in-ship experience—Yacht Club, Retreat, Haven, Suite Class, and The Sanctuary—plus the full luxury lines for travelers who prefer a smaller ship top to bottom. NovaVia works through Worldvia and Travel Leaders Network, which means real access across current events and travel category; but honestly, my favorite part of the job is still matching someone to the right experience, whether it is their first big trip or their 20th. When I'm not planning cruises, I'm being walked by my two dogs, who run the house more than I do.
