About Me

Hello world travelers! I am Sara, the owner of Purdy’s Journeys LLC and I have over 12 years of experience working in the best industry.. travel! I began my career as a Travel Consultant and Team Leader of a retail store managing a team of travel advisors, before joining Envoyage and starting my own business based on the Jersey Shore.

I have hosted and attended countless travel seminars and trainings to become knowledgeable in all areas of the world. To provide my clients with first-hand destination expertise, I have traveled to 35 countries and counting. I enjoy all kinds of travel, ranging from luxurious getaways at 5* resorts, to eco lodge adventures in the Amazon Rainforest, to sightseeing and dining my way through European small towns and big cities.

When it comes to taking care of my clients’ travels, I provide first-class service and attention to every detail. I look forward to building meaningful relationships with my clients and getting to know your exact preferences so that I can personalize your travel experience.

I am a member of the American Society of Travel Advisors, the New Jersey Association of Central Jersey Travel Professionals, and am an Envoyage Ambassador. I earned the ILT Rising Star Award in May 2023, was inducted into Celebrity Cruises’ Iconic Advisor Club in October 2023, won an Envoyage Envy award for Best Travel Experience in May 2024, and am honored to be a top 10 Envoyage advisor as an ICON in July 2024.

I look forward to connecting and becoming an important part of your journeys around the globe!

Client Testimonials

"We just returned from a vacation scheduled by Sara and I cannot recommend her enough. She recommended the perfect resort and took care of every detail. Our ground transportation was prompt and very safe. Everything about the resort she recommended was extraordinary (facilities, food, drinks and most of all service). Any time I had a question she responded quickly (even when she was traveling in the Amazon rainforest). I would highly recommend Purdy's Journeys to anyone looking to take a memorable trip!"

"This was our first time working with Purdy's Journeys, but it certainly won't be our last. Sara was great to work with, super responsive, and very helpful throughout the process. We basically gave her some of the things we wanted to do and see, and she sent us back an awesome itinerary. Having someone who is more familiar with locations and logistics is essential to have a fun, efficient trip. Looking forward to our next trip with her!"

"Sara did an incredible job of planning our belated Honeymoon to Greece (Chania, Heraklion, Santorini and Athens)! She set us up on some extremely special tours with locals who really helped us immerse in the culture, something we would not have found on our own, for example a culinary tour of Chania visiting a local farm to table traditional restaurant. She took our preferences into consideration and made a trip tailored just for us that felt like it should have cost way more than it did! She also let everyone know we were celebrating my birthday and our marriage and we we treated to free wine and upgrades everywhere we went. The hotel she found for us in Santorini was something out of my wildest vacation dreams! Sara was also extremely responsive while we were away and helped us figure things out when our tour guide had to switch things around. Cannot recommend Sara's services enough and can't wait to work with her again!"
