Hawaii, June 2023

My personal travels have allowed me to experience many destinations first-hand. Using a professional travel agent is much more than a transaction. I provide insight and peace-of-mind when you are planning to visit a new destination.

With so many vacation options to choose from, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. I work as your value interpreter. I find amazing experiences that exceed your every desire, but not your budget. With my services, you can be confident that your vacation will be perfectly planned, hassle-free and filled with moments you'll never forget!

I WORK FOR YOU, NOT THE SUPPLIER. I am here to help you with every detail of the process. If you need any assistance, I'm just a telephone call or e-mail away; so you will receive the immediate attention you want, need and deserve. I will provide you with the personal service that the automated online, bulk travel sites cannot offer...I answer my own phone, respect your personal preferences, understand your needs, and usually even recognize your voice! I am here for you.

Beautiful scenery and great culture

Reviewed By Lee - Columbus, Ohio | Traveled to Lisbon ~ Portugal ~ Europe
We took a trip to Lisbon, Portugal and it was amazing. Our travel agent Amber arranged everything from our tours, airport transportation, hotel, and flights. Provided advice on locations to visit and even tips for departing Lisbon. It removed stress because we didn't have to do anything but show up and enjoy our vacation. I have already told friends and colleagues about Amber. If you want someone that's knowledgeable in traveling, professional, and friendly; then Amber is your new travel agent! You will not be disappointed.

Our trip was a dream!

Reviewed By Mary - Hoover, AL | Traveled to Maui Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
We recently went on a trip booked by Amber and it was a dream! She was great to work with and made sure we had everything we needed. When flights were delayed, she was right there with us every step of the way in case we needed to reschedule our connection (fortunately we made it right as they were closing the doors!) We would recommend Hayes Travel Group to our family and friends and definitely plan to book a trip with her again in the future. Thanks so much Amber!!

Take the stress out of planning

Reviewed By Chandrika - Columbus, OH | Traveled to
I also book and plan my own vacations. I chose Amber, not for the savings (though she did provide information to help save), but because it took the stress out of planning the trip. My daughter and I went on a second cruise with Royal Caribbean and did not have to worry about flight delays or changes, trying to locate transportation from FLL to Miami, and a nice, convenient hotel in FLL when we landed. I would definitely recommend and book with Amber again.

A breeze

Reviewed By Megan C. - Columbus, OH | Traveled to
Amber assisted my husband and I with booking our honeymoon at Disney World. She made the process a breeze. She was able to arrange a great trip within our budget. She made herself available to answer any and all questions that I had and responded promptly. Unfortunately, we were affected by the Delta outage. With that being said, Amber was attentive to us and our situation. She worked towards making sure we were on our way ASAP and checked in with updates. I highly recommend her as a travel agent!

Fantastic help in a pinch!

Reviewed By Jen R. - San Diego, CA | Traveled to
Amber was a huge help on a trip I took to Romania last summer. I had to adjust my schedule to accommodate both work and leisure and doing so meant I was unable to find a single hotel during the stay with my work agency and would have to move around. Amber jumped in and in no time found me the option to stay the entire length in my preferred hotel, and for a better deal even. It was a real life saver and I would go back to her again and again thanks to her extensive knowledge and quick responsiveness!

Perfect trip planned in days!

Reviewed By JKSnyder - Newark, OH | Traveled to
We decided on very short notice (10 days out) that we wanted to plan a cruise over the Christmas holiday. We called Amber with a few specifications and she replied back in less then a business day with several options. This was pretty incredible, considering we gave her such short notice! The rooms availability fluctuated hourly with holiday demand and she was able to help us reserve a room that was unavailable to the general internet. She also worked through on night to help us find perfect flights. She gave us a lot of information about the difference cruise lines and made the entire process painless and easy, especially given the tight time frame we gave her! We had such a great experience that we are using her to plan another Christmas trip to Disney this year! Already, she has made this trip as easy as the other. She reserved multiple character meals as well as park attractions. For Disney newbies like us, she has been an absolute blessing while planning this trip as well. Using Amber to book our vacations has been the easiest part of the vacations!

Awesome anniversary cruise.

Reviewed By Nick Kahn - Canal Winchester,Ohio | Traveled to Cozumel ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Had previously booked Hawaii vacation with Amber and she did an awesome job. So we decided to take our first cruise and have Amber set everything up for us. Amber asked where we wanted to travel to and gave us some pointers on where to start. We decided on a western Caribbean cruise with Carnival and she took care of all the rest. Was in constant contact with us with deciding what kind of stateroom we wanted and if we wanted early or late dinner time. Amber also recommended we fly in day before because I was going to fly in the same day as cruise departure. This way if something happened with flight we would have time to make other arrangements. She helped us with hotel bookings coming and going and made car reservations to and from airport. The hotel was very nice we got back to hotel after cruise at 9AM and they had a room available. I was worried because check-in was at 4PM. The car service was exceptional the drivers were very nice and courteous. Have recommended Amber to others.

Our Dream Vacation

Reviewed By Jelly Gee - Pataskala, Ohio | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Amber was always available. She went out of her way to help us.....even with the smallest of concerns. Amber answered all of our questions and gave us some very good recommendations about how to handle different situations. We had to call her from overseas and she went out of her way to fulfill a request we had that required assistance on our way home.

We so appreciate all Amber did. We knew she was there for us in every situation.

We highly recommend Amber and hope we have the opportunity to go through Hayes travel group again.
