David & Kathleen Suratt-Dream Vacations
Meet the Suratts
Welcome to our agency! We are David and Kathleen Suratt, and we are absolutely thrilled to help you plan your next great escape. Our own journey together began long before we entered the travel industry—we have been happily married for nine wonderful years, but we’ve actually known each other and been dating for seventeen years total. Over nearly two decades, travel has been the heartbeat of our relationship.
We love exploring everything this world has to offer, from extensive domestic road trips across the United States to international adventures, including our favorite voyage exploring Caribbean gems like Cozumel, Grand Cayman, and Jamaica.
When we founded our Dream Vacations franchise, we did it with a singular mission: to provide you with the perfect, stress-free vacation. We know how overwhelming planning can be, which is why we handle every single detail so all you have to do is show up and enjoy the destination. We don't just hand you a ticket and wish you luck; we are here for you before, during, and after your trip to ensure you have an unforgettable, seamless experience from start to finish. Let us take care of the logistics while you make the memories!

Co-Owner & Premier Faith-Based Travel Advisor
My passion for exploring the world truly ignited during my time in the Army National Guard when a deployment took me to Germany. Having plenty of off-duty time to immerse myself in the country, I fell in love with the thrill of international travel. That experience shaped my entire philosophy: whether traveling domestically or abroad, I believe in seeing as much of a destination as possible, stepping outside comfort zones, embracing new cultures, and connecting with local communities.
Today, as the co-owner of a premier faith-based travel agency, I channel a lifelong passion for exploration into crafting meaningful, stress-free itineraries for church communities and travelers of all backgrounds. Whether you are seeking a sacred pilgrimage, a church group cruise, a refreshing all-inclusive getaway, or a complex international journey, I bring deep, brand-specific expertise to every detail.

Co-Owner & Premier Full-Service Travel AdvisorIronically, my own love for international travel also began in Germany! I traveled there to visit a close friend who had lived with my family as a high school exchange student. As an Indian-American born right here in the USA, I have always had a deep appreciation for diverse cultures, but that first trip abroad completely opened my eyes to the joy of global connection.
Today, I channel that passion into co-leading a premier, full-service travel agency dedicated to crafting unforgettable journeys for every type of traveler. Whether you are looking for an all-inclusive beach retreat, an ocean cruise, an immersive guided land tour, or a custom domestic getaway, we handle every detail with meticulous care.
My favorite international journey so far was a group tour through Ireland. I completely fell in love with the country, and the trip was so meaningful that a group of us who met on the tour still stay in touch every single day! When I visit a new place, I jump in with both feet—diving into local history, soaking up the culture, and savoring authentic food. I bring that exact same enthusiasm, meticulous attention to detail, and personalized care to planning every aspect of your ideal vacation, wherever in the world you want to go.
