Meet your travel advisor
Hi, I'm Marissa.
I'm a US-based cruise travel advisor and Royal Caribbean specialist. I've been cruising personally for over 20 years, and after turning that lifelong obsession into a career, I booked 300+ cruises in my first year alone.
Independent advisor with Best Day Ever Vacations, certified across every major cruise brand, and on track for over $1 million in sales this year. One person who picks up the phone, every single time. And it costs you nothing.

How I got here
It started with the first cruise my husband and I took together, just the two of us. Waking up in a new port, sharing sunset dinners at sea, that easy rhythm of life on the water. I was hooked. Five years later, and as our family grew, the love of cruising spread through all of us. We've been cruising together ever since!
Friends started asking me to plan their trips. Then friends of friends. Just over a year ago I made it official, joined Best Day Ever Vacations as an independent advisor, and got certified across every major cruise brand. In my first year as a travel advisor I booked 300+ cruises and I'm on track to do over a million dollars in sales this year.
I specialize in Royal Caribbean because it is the line I know best, the line I sail most, and the line that delivers the broadest range of vacations: families, first-time cruisers, multi-generational reunions, milestone birthdays, and adults-only escapes all in one fleet.
I'm an independent travel agent affiliated with Best Day Ever Vacations, a host agency that gives me direct access to the same supplier relationships, group rates, and promotions as the largest agencies in the country, while letting me run Wright Way Travel as a true boutique. You get big-agency pricing and perks with one dedicated person handling every detail.
My service costs you nothing. Cruise lines pay me directly, which means you get expert planning, price-drop monitoring, and a real human advocate at no added cost. The fare on royalcaribbean.com already includes my commission. Book direct and that money just stays with the cruise line.

What clients say
"Marissa Wright was incredible from beginning to end. I reached out just weeks before our expected travel date for a large group and she was incredibly responsive and immensely helpful. She kept in touch even after we booked, sharing helpful tips and answering the most random questions and final hour requests from our group. I am so grateful to have found her to make our complex trip seamless."
Sherry D., large group booking (Google review)
"She went above and beyond to find us the most affordable and fun cruise that would fit our family of 9! Since this was our first time on a cruise, Marissa was super helpful in answering my MANY questions and letting us know exactly what to expect. We had an absolute blast."
Jeanice F., first-time cruisers, family of 9 (Google review)
"Marissa did a fantastic job helping us with the coordination of our vacation on board Celebrity Beyond. She made the booking super smooth, enabling us to make the right decisions for our vacation style. All that putting aside the excellent price that she was able to get for us. It will be a no-brainer to contact Marissa for our next vacation trip."
