Lars Federhar

I have more than 18 years of experience in the hospitality industry. Before opening my agency in January 2016, I was a Regional Business Development Manager for Sandals and Beaches Resorts.

While working for them, I got to travel extensively all over the Caribbean and Mexico as well as the US. I worked closely with travel agents across the county in training them on how to sell and market their agency. After two years of working with them, I realized that I could bring something completely different to the table for my clients, hence me opening Alternative Travel Services.

Prior to working for Sandals and Beaches Resorts, I have been a national sales manager for several transportation companies, a corporate sales manager for Red Lion Hotels and a catering and convention service manager for Hyatt Hotels as well as two internships at Walt Disney World.

My wife and I are lucky to have a 8-year-old daughter, and we travel extensively with her. We understand the challenges of traveling with children and will assist you in making it as easy as possible. I am also a Special Needs Group Certified Accessible Travel Advocate. I also have several clients with disabilities and have planned extensive trips for them around the world.

My passion and experience for the travel industry, has helped me create long lasting relationships across the world. This is what makes me different than your ordinary travel professional. By having these relationships and experiences, I can ensure that you get that customized trip each time, while saving you time and money.
