We've been exactly where you are.
In 2011, Rachel and I boarded our honeymoon cruise with no idea what we were doing. Fifteen cruises later, we became the people everyone turns to for cruise advice.
Eventually, it made sense to make it official. I handle the planning and bookings, Rachel brings the mom perspective, and our young daughters Emily and Charlotte give us insight into what really matters for kids.
Together, we are Deckers on Deck.
The experience behind the advice
📍 Every port we've visited
Our process:
Custom built for busy families.
Who's coming, dream destinations, any questions. I'll guide the conversation and send you a custom proposal. The right ship, cabin and itinerary for your family. Not a list. One tailored answer.
Once you approve the proposal, I handle the booking. The cruise line pays my commission, not you. And because I built my own tools instead of relying on expensive agency software, there are no advisor fees. Ever.
You get access to my planning dashboard that walks you through every phase to boarding day. No scrambling. By the time you step on that ship you'll feel like you've done this before.
What families are saying
"We had no idea where to start — three kids, two grandparents, and a week off in July. Chris came back with one option that fit perfectly. We didn't have to research a thing."
"I've booked travel on my own for years and always assumed an agent would just push whatever paid the most commission. Chris was the opposite. He talked us out of two ships before landing on the right one."
"The planning dashboard after booking was worth it alone. I always feel like I'm forgetting something before a trip. This time I didn't."
