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 had a wonderful time. No complaints. The planning was excellent and the ladies who took care of us were very professional.
Looking forward to more trips. Please keep us posted on any new trips by Patti. Thank you again for a wonderful trip.
Have a nice Thanksgiving.

We always enjoy Patty's trips. This trip did not disappoint. Both wineries we visited were beautiful and, most important of all, made outstanding wine--we have found that many wineries in NC just aren't up to par, but these two (Rayson and Shadow Springs) were spectacular.... We also enjoyed the wonderful lunch and tastings at Southern Distilling. The tasting room and event room were lovely with antique cars and motorcycle collections. Our stop at Rescue Ranch far exceeded my expectations...the animals were adorable, everything from a giant tortoise to a llama--we also saw, what we believe to be the largest cow in the world--his back was over 6 feet high.. We really enjoyed this trip, as well as the wonderful customer service provided by Patty and her team.

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!
