I love to travel so in my partially retired life I decided to adapt my passion for travel along with 25 years of experience in Travel & Tourism to create Trips by Patty.
I received a BA in American History from UNC-Chapel Hill. Not knowing what I was going to do with that degree, I started working as a desk clerk at a hotel in Raleigh. I enjoyed the hotel business and the career path began. Hotel operations and sales, Convention Center operations and marketing, destination marketing with a Convention Visitors Bureau and even a stint as a tour guide. What happened to the history degree? Well, many times when I am escorting my trips I share the history of the destinations we visit.
It's a great feeling to take your career skills and adapt them to your own small business. I love what I do and hope you'll join me on a trip one day!

We loved how informative this trip was! We got to do so much, learn so much, in such quick trip. Thank you so much for all your effort in arranging this. Our complaint would be, the hotel was so removed from anything and didn’t have a bar to be able to gather with other travelers and get to know each other better. Of course we got the room with no heat, no fault of yours, but it did make us not want to spend much time in there!

An absolutely wonderful trip....Well organized, filled with great tours/experiences, plenty of information to help navigate trip and
great accommodations at the Hotel. Very much looking forward to another tour.

This trip exceeded our expectations! Comfortable bus, snacks, and stops plus nice hotel stay. The Candlelight Christmas tour of Biltmore was fabulous and not rushed. The King Tut exhibit was wonderful as well as the holiday lights and trolls at the Arboretum. The guest guides on the bus gave insights into Biltmore's history and the estate. So much more plus some free time! Highly recommend this trip organized by Patty!

We packed in a lot of activity on this trip which was great! I really enjoyed all the tours. Patty does a great job with the arrangements!
Hotel was lacking though, heat was an issue in several of the rooms and it would have been nice to have had a bar for gathering.
Unfortunately some people on the bus were too crotchety, a few downright nasty, so I won’t be going on any more of these tours until I’m much older and can’t drive myself.

We had a great time on the bus, being with friends and enjoying dinner. The show was good but sometimes to corny. I enjoyed most of it.

So enjoyed the Annie Leibovitz trip! This was my first over night trip. Patty and team are pro's, with friendly, and considerate, "can do" attitudes. Top notch planning and execution. Great hotel! Looking forward to my next Bryson City Train and Biltmore trips!
