Founder & Lead Advisor

Diane Bean,

My name is Diane Bean and I’m the owner of Off On Vacation Travel, a luxury boutique style travel agency located in Bangor, Maine. I was born in Berlin, Germany and I speak both English and German. I’ve been a professional travel advisor for over 30 years, and have clients from all over the United States. I’ve been a front line travel agent, travel agency manager and now I’m an agency owner. I love what I do. My personal specialities are European, Culinary, Romance and Exotic Island travel. I love working with my heavy referral and repeat clientele.

I get to really know my clients, many who become my friends. I find out what their travel dreams are and I design a trip that is customized especially for them. I want that trip to be their most amazing and memorable trip ever.

Ute Harshbarger

My name is Ute Harshbarger. I was born and raised in Germany. From the age of 18, I moved back and forth from Germany to the US on an average of every 3 years; I speak both languages fluently. My husband, Jim, and I have 3 wonderful children, along with three beautiful grandchildren.    

My greatest passion is Disney. My family and I have visited Euro Disney, Disney World and Disneyland countless times. When I had the opportunity to become a travel agent with my daughter Jamie it was was an easy choice to specialize in Disney. My other passion is cruising. We try to cruise twice a year whenever possible! I have taken many travel courses to learn the ins and outs of cruising. I am a Disney Cruise line Platinum member. I am experienced in Ocean Cruising, as well as European River Cruising. I love to help clients travel to Europe to experience the many different cultures. My priority is to have happy and satisfied clients, and I go above and beyond to achieve this.

BOOK WITH UTE

Travel Advisor

Karen Rublee,

I have been in the travel industry for over 31 years. I have worked as a travel agent, manager, and mentor. Travel is what I know and what I love. I treat my clients’ vacations as I would my own. I strive to bring a personal touch to each and every vacation I plan. After all, the vacations come and go, but the memories last a lifetime.

I have always had a fascination with castles and medieval history. I also love the great outdoors (hiking, RV camping, nordic skiing, you name it!) and I enjoy sharing that with my clients. I have a passion for selling European river cruises, and have taken six of them myself. I also specialize in trips to Ireland, Scotland, and England. Prince Edward Island and Ireland are two of my favorite places! When I'm not traveling, I'm home enjoying living near the ocean and visiting Acadia National Park. I would love to help you plan your special vacation. Let the memories begin!
