My fiancé and I just booked our honeymoon with Kim!!!! We are so excited! We have been planning a wedding and working so much and hadn’t put much thought into the honeymoon aspect. We knew we wanted to go to Hawaii and that was about it. We talked with Kim about a few things we were interested in, and BOOM, we have the entire trip booked, and we didn’t have to do a thing! For someone who is easily overwhelmed by all the little details of planning any kind of trip, let alone my HONEYMOON, It’s such a relief knowing this is one less thing we have to plan! I would definitely recommend giving Kim a call if you’re planning any kind of trip, big or small! Can't wait for our honeymoon!

Stress free and VIP!
Reviewed By SMH - Royal Oak, MI | Traveled to Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Working with Kim made our trip the easiest booked vacation I’ve ever had! When we were deciding on resorts, she was so incredibly knowledgeable about the amenities at each and asked up a lot of questions on what was important to us, allowing for more specific recommendations. We absolutely loved where we booked and would have never discovered it without her guidance. The whole trip went off without a hitch and Kim was there checking in to ensure nothing less. It was nice to feel like all her attention was on us and ensuring we had everything we could want!

Kim worked with us on every step of our honeymoon. From finding the perfect cruise to hotels before and after the cruise. It was my first time traveling overseas and she helped relieve my stress about it. The trip itself was perfect! She had everything that could be done prior to leaving done! We just showed up and enjoyed our time. It was a once in a lifetime experience and we owe it all to Kim.

The best vacations!!
Reviewed By Beth - Farmington Hills, MI | Traveled to Europe
Kim is the BEST! We have done many trips with her. She is always excited to plan with us, and she thinks of every detail from transportation, accommodations, and activities and is mindful of our budget. She spends time learning about what we enjoy and researching the destination to ensure we have the best experience. I never have a worry, and she is always available if there is a snafu along the way. My trips are so much more relaxing and fun because of KimI was never one to use a travel agent, but I thought I could use some help with travel between cities, so I connected with Kim. I was so amazed and delighted by the full range of what she did that I use her for every trip now. We've done many countries in Europe, as well as South America and the Caribbean. I have many more places on my bucket list, and Kim will be part of all of them.
