Meet Your Travel Specialist
Ree Lesher


Hi there! I’m Ree Lesher, the travel-loving soul behind In Search of Elsewhere Travel—where I turn wanderlust into reality.


I may be a certified travel advisor, but my true expertise comes from firsthand experience—because I don’t just plan incredible trips, I live them. I’ve cruised the Nile in Egypt, driven Iceland’s epic Ring Road, explored Hobbiton in New Zealand, hiked around Uluru in Australia, and soaked up the sun in the Caribbean. These adventures have shaped how I see the world—and how I help you explore it.


I specialize in bucket list cruises and as a proud Pacific Northwest Specialist, I also love helping travelers uncover the beauty of the rugged coastlines, forests, and national parks right here in my own backyard.


Whether you’re dreaming of a tropical escape, a culture-filled cruise, or a scenic road trip through Oregon and beyond, I’ll help you plan a trip that’s seamless, personalized, and unforgettable.


So, where to next?



Why Book your travel with me?

Firsthand Travel Experience – I’ve explored destinations around the world, from cruising the Nile in Egypt and the Caribbean to road-tripping through Iceland, giving me insider knowledge to help craft your perfect trip.


Certified Travel Expertise – As a Certified Travel Agent Affiliate with Cornerstone Collective (Let’s Go Travel) and trained with major cruise lines, I have the resources to find the best deals, exclusive perks, and hidden gems.

Cruise & Land Travel Specialist – From luxury cruises and tropical escapes to off-the-beaten-path road trips, I help you explore the world by land and by sea.


Support Before, During & After Your Trip – Travel hiccups happen, but I’ve got your back! Whether it’s a last-minute change or a question mid-trip, I’m just a call or message away.


No Extra Fees – Booking with me doesn’t cost you extra—in fact, I often save clients money by finding the best value for their budget! The only exception is airline tickets: there is a minimal fee if you’re booking air travel only.


Passion for Adventure – I don’t just book trips—I live for travel! I’ll help you discover must-see spots, hidden gems, and unforgettable experiences that make your journey one-of-a-kind.
