Meet Travel Advisor Carolyn Consalvo

Carolyn Consalvo’s love of travel began as a child, riding in the back seat of her parents’ 1963 Ford Galaxie. Family road trips took them all over the U.S., from national parks and big cities to theme parks and roadside attractions. In 1985, she turned her first love into a career as a travel agent. Today as an Andrew Harper Travel Advisor, she gets to assist travelers with their trips in North America, Central America, the Caribbean and Mexico. She especially enjoys helping clients plan holidays to celebrate the big milestones of their lives — special birthdays, honeymoons, anniversaries and retirement. Carolyn really means it when she says, “Get your bucket list ready, I can make it a reality!”
