Toni’s Background

I have been in the travel business since the year 2000 but have been interested in this field since my teens.  My travel experiences have taken me on adventures of seeing and learning about the places of visit.  These journeys include history, architecture, the arts and the beaches in places like Turkey, Russia, Greece, Italy, Spain, Caribbean and Bermuda.  Most importantly I love learning about the people and their tastes, traditions and stories.  I am detail oriented and will help with all your needs of travel.

Working with Toni is always a great experience. She is a true professional. She seems to be able to answer our questions before we even think of them. We know she has many other clients but when we deal with her we feel like we are the only ones she is concerned with. We would not think of planning a cruise or any trip for that matter without her assistance.

11 Day Caribbean Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

It is a delight working with Toni. She worked closely with us in our initial booking of a balcony cabin and later when we upgraded to a Junior Suite with Large Balcony. She arranged alternate travel insurance when NYS foreclosed RCI from booking insurance directly. And best of all, prior to making final payment she was able to save us $800.00. We have been working with her for 7+ years and with NorthStar Cruises for 31 years. They are the best!

Working with Toni Lanfrank and Northstar is always a pleasure. She is extremely knowledgeable,attentive to details and takes the time and makes the effort to address any and all individual concerns.

We have worked with Northstar and Toni for many years. Toni knows the cruise business — which can be confusing to the layperson— and goes to great lengths to provide great service. She knows the likes and dislikes of her clients and suggests ships and itineraries appropriate for the client. Unlike many travel agents, Toni is never “pushy”, but provides the client with sufficient information to choose the right cruise.

Early in 2018 we booked a month long European land and Regent cruise with Toni. Then we had to cancel due to an illness and surgery. The surgery and rehab was a success and our Doctors agreed that our previously planned European vacation would do us good. Called Toni and asked if she could resurrect our previous plans and she said “let me see what I can do” and she pulled it off…perfectly! A pleasant personality with a positive attitude wins everytime.
