Welcome to Venture Out Vacations with Irene!
Where your dream vacation begins stress-free and full of excitement!

Hi, I’m Irene Plaisted — a travel specialist with a heart for creating joyful, easy, and unforgettable travel experiences.

I started this business because I’ve always believed that travel should feel exciting, not overwhelming. After years of helping friends and family plan their own getaways, I realized just how much people appreciate having someone who truly listens, understands their needs, and takes the stress off their shoulders.

Now, I do that every day for clients just like you.

What sets me apart is how personally I take your trip. I treat every vacation as if it were my own — making sure you’re informed, supported, and completely confident from the moment we start planning. I’ll keep track of every little detail, look for the best value, and make sure you’re taken care of every step of the way.

And the best part? My services are completely FREE.

That means no extra fees, no pressure, and no stress — just someone in your corner who wants you to have an amazing trip, whether it’s a romantic destination wedding, a tropical all-inclusive, a cruise with friends, or a quick weekend escape.

If you’re ready to venture out on your next adventure, I’d love to help you make it effortless and fun.

Let’s plan something amazing,
Irene

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs



Are there fees associated with your services?

Most services are complimentary, and no cost to you. I am paid from the Vendor (Cruise line, Disney, Universal, etc.) and no additional costs are passed onto my clients. 


How are services free? 

The vendors I partner with provide a commission for booking new clients and taking care of their vacation details, payments, and questions. The benefits of this are that guests receive quality and personalized service from myself, as vendors are no longer charged with having to take care of every single guest with limited means and staff, and my clients get to have incredible vacations planned for free. It is truly a win for all!


I prefer to plan my own trips, how can I benefit?

I completely understand — you decide how much you’d like to be involved, and I’ll take care of the rest. I’ll handle the initial booking for you and be your safety net if anything comes up during your trip. I’ll also keep an eye out for new promotions and apply them when available so you always get the best value. Since each vendor may require different details before arrival, we’ll go over those together and you can choose the parts you enjoy handling. Everything else? Leave it to me!


What if I have already booked my trip, can you still help?

Yes, in some cases I can! Depending on the vendor, there’s often a specific timeframe after the original booking where I may still be able to step in and provide my complimentary services.

If your reservation falls outside of that timeframe, don’t worry — we can still connect and go over your options. I’ll help determine whether your existing booking qualifies and share what services I can offer to make your trip as smooth and stress-free as possible.
