Hi, I'm Donnetta.

Donnetta Byrd, travel advisor and owner of Byrd AdventuresDonnetta
Byrd Adventures

Six years planning the trips I love most.

I'm a travel advisor in San Antonio, and I plan the kinds of trips I'm genuinely passionate about, train travel, river cruises, and ocean cruises. Most of my clients are retired, and many of them served in the military. They've worked hard, they've earned a trip that's done right, and they want good value, not the cheapest option and not five-star for its own sake.

What I hear most often is that they're tired of guessing. They don't want to spend their evenings comparing cabins and cross-checking train times. That's my job, and I like it. You tell me how you want to feel on the trip, and I handle the hundred decisions underneath it.

How I work

Quality trips, real value, no guesswork.

I plan around you

Guided touring with real time to explore on your own. I match the route, the ship or the seat class, and the hotels to how you actually like to travel.

Honest value

I look for the trip that's worth it, not the one with the lowest price tag. My clients trust my recommendations because I tell them the truth about what's worth the money.

I stay with you

From the first conversation to the day you get home, you have one person who knows your trip. If something comes up while you travel, you reach me, not a call center.

If you're near San Antonio, I'd rather sit down with you in person and hand you a printed, bound itinerary than email a file you squint at on your phone. My clients tell me they keep them long after the trip.
