ShoreTrips Information

Meet Barry and Julie Karp—owners of ShoreTrips. Barry has been in the travel industry for over 30 years. He has been traveling all his life—as a vacationer, travel agent and as a group leader. He has experienced, first-hand, the evolution of leisure travel from pre-Internet days to the present. Julie has known Barry all her life and has traveled that long, as well. She started her career as an interior designer 30 years ago, but switched to travel thinking it would be fun to make her hobby her profession. ShoreTrips seek out the best of the operators. We go directly to the source to determine who we feel are the best suited to deliver a great product. We examine their equipment, hold their insurance and build a relationship. We have met with every operator we work with and, by understanding the port of call and knowing the tour, we can confidently offer our activities. In addition, our operators are all professionals in the travel industry and they guarantee to return you to your ship on time.
