Renée boasts a remarkable tenure in the travel industry, with over 50 years of experience shaping her expertise. She's been a valued member of the Action Travel team for over 13 years, leveraging her vast knowledge to craft exceptional travel experiences. A Certified Travel Consultant (CTC) from the early days of her career, Renée has witnessed the travel landscape evolve dramatically, with the world becoming increasingly accessible.

Renée's travel spirit is particularly drawn to destinations that offer a glimpse into cultures beyond the Western world.

She's also well-traveled within the United States, having visited all but five states (with multiple trips to Hawaii, but Alaska yet to be explored). However, Israel holds a truly special place in her heart, capturing her imagination for over 40 years.
