Courtney Tapken

Hi! I’m Courtney, and I’m the wellness specialist and Europe specialist here at 417 Travel. 

I love to travel—so much, in fact, that my husband and I took a three-month trip through the southwest in our van that he converted into a camper. I love an all-inclusive resort with a great beach. I also love visiting cities all across the world to learn about different cultures. My favorite thing about traveling is getting to try authentic food in native places.

When I’m not planning your next trip, you can find me snuggling up with my two pups—a 75-pound Great Dane / Hound rescue named Memphis and a French Bulldog named Leonard.

Travel has always been something I’ve been passionate about and planning every detail of your trip is right in my wheelhouse! 

My Last Vacation – Republic of Ireland

My Favorite Resort – Hotel Xcaret in the Riviera Maya

My Last Vacation – Iberostar Grand Paraiso in the Riviera Maya Mexico

My Dream Vacation – Greece! I would love to spend three days in Athens to visit the historical sites. Then I want to head to the coast and sail to each island. Spend at least four days at each location and end the trip in Santorini eating all the delicious Mediterranean food. A month-long trip soaking in the sun, immersing myself in the culture and eating great food!
