History

Established in 1978.

The agency was started in 1978 as the dream of Gini Thiesen. She loved to travel and wanted a way to help others find their dream. During that time period most people took road trips, and traveling to far off destinations was a dream most people could not fathom. Travel agencies provided an easy way for people to explore the options available to them. Gini was active in the community and was also an international volunteer. She provided businesses in Eastern Europe and South Africa help and support in improving their business models.

Sadly, she passed away in 2007, but her spirit lives on through her daughter and husband who currently run the business. They are active with the North Metro Children’s Advocacy Center and continue to help the community achieve their vacation dreams.
