Thank you so much for stopping by – we’re truly grateful for your visit!

CruiseTayo was inspired by the joyful phrase often shared among Filipino-American family and friends: “Cruise tayo!” — Let’s cruise! What started as a dream has now grown into a passionate travel business powered by a team of dedicated cruise enthusiasts, all excited to help you explore the world by sea and beyond.

I was born in the Philippines and now call sunny Florida home. After catching the travel bug, I joined Archer Travel and became a proud CLIA graduate. That journey opened doors to incredible industry knowledge and exclusive deals that I now get to share with you.

Alongside my amazing CruiseTayo team, we’re here to help you plan unforgettable vacations—whether it’s a destination wedding, family reunion, girls’ getaway, or that long-overdue relaxing escape. We’re certified with multiple cruise line partners and bring real experience and insider tips to every trip we help design.

From island-hopping in the Caribbean to glacier-spotting in Alaska or indulging in all-inclusive luxury in Europe or Asia, CruiseTayo is your go-to travel resource.
