About us

Florentina (Tina) Armstrong knows the cruise business from the inside out … literally! A native of Amsterdam, Holland (The Netherlands), Tina worked for many years for the Holland America Line in a number of different capacities aboard ship and ashore. She knows all of the cruise lines operating today and provides her clients with an insider’s view of what cruising is all about.

Tina met a handsome American on one of her journeys and his job with Budweiser brought the Armstrong's to Fairfield, CA where they continue to reside after his retirement. They live in a beautiful mountainside home with their faithful dog “Truffles” and manage to take three or four cruises a year just to keep their hand in the operations side of the business.
