Brian Forrester
Brian brings an entrepreneurial spirit to Cruise Holidays of Scottsdale.  In 1990
he was looking for an opportunity to take him through his retirement years and beyond - and to have some fun!  He purchased his own Cruise Holidays in West Vancouver, B.C., Canada.  Yes, he's Canadian, eh!
A few years later he decided to join his wife in the warmer climes of Arizona, and thus, met up with Cruise Holidays of Scottsdale.
He enjoys his time with the team in Scottsdale and strives "to exceed your expectations."
