Dream family vacation

Reviewed By Dave - Glenview IL | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Dawn is knowledgeable professional, helpful, insightful, prompt and courteous. My boys were 9 and 11 in May 2019 when we booked and took our trip to Universal Studios, Orlando. Their mother and I had talked for years about such a trip, and after stops and starts researching our trip ... thought it would never happen. From the moment we contracted Dawn, she made the planning seamless, answered all our questions and steered us in the best directions ... many that we would not have considered. Dawn found us reasonable first class accommodations at a truly amazing hotel, beautiful suite, early park entry w express passes, We are so grateful for Dawn's expertise and thoughtful, knowledgeable trip suggestions. Until the next time we book with Dawn, ... truly the trip of a lifetime for our family.

A Great Trip with Little Stress

Reviewed By Punta Cana Honeymooners - Hanna City, Illinois | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Dawn was great in setting up our Honeymoon. I told her what I wanted and where I was thinking of going and she stepped up and helped me out step by step. Took the stress out of the planning and at a cheaper rate than I could do myself, I looked. Dawn was great in responding quickly to any questions we had with the costs, travel and resort / excursions that we were thinking of. Dawn was great in giving us some tips for getting the most out of our travel and resort stay. Thank you very much Dawn.

Amazing trip.

Reviewed By Christine - Beach Park IL | Traveled to Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Dawn was amazing. We booked this trip for March 20th and we had to cancel the day before because of covid. It was a mess. Dawn was very helpful in rescheduling our trip and assisting me on our refund. When our trip finally came we were dealing with hurricane issues and Dawn was monitoring it and helping with a plan B. She did an amazing job.

A memorable Familymoon

Reviewed By Hobsons - Fox Lake, IL | Traveled to Mexico
Dawn did an excellent job throwing together a last minute "Familymoon" for our family. Getting a group with multiple family members is NOT an easy task but she did it. She was also a great help for me who was traveling for the first time with all my kids out of the country. Its overwhelming to ensure you are being safe and doing what you need to. Thanks for all your help and checking in with us throughout our vacation as well.

What a wonderful trip to Now Sapphie in Mexico. Dawn posted a trip on social media about a mom's getaway, that sounded amazing. A group of friends and I went and the trip was fantastic. Dawn was at the resort to make sure the trip was perfect. She handled all the details to make sure we were getting exactly what the resort offered. We stayed at an all-inclusive and Dawn made sure we had everything we could want during our trip. Dawn, Thanks for a trip full of memories!

Best Travel Agent EVER!

Reviewed By Jon and Janel Fry - Caledonia WI | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Dawn is the best! She listens to what you want and then offers all the options. Everything is in writing. She goes above and beyond to make her clients happy! We have booked two trips with Dawn and they were awesome!

Our latest trip was to Punta Cana Dominican Republic. This was the best trip we have ever taken. We went over Christmas and it was beautiful. At first the trip got booked for the wrong week, but Dawn was able to fix it at the last minute and everything went perfectly! She gave us a list of things we could do and see and we picked what we wanted and she booked it all for us. No headaches - everything was smooth and carefree!

I will use Dawn at Twilight Discount Travel again and will tell everyone I know to use her also for all of their travel needs!

Amazing trip because of our travel agent!

Reviewed By KR4 - Spring Grove, IL | Traveled to Puerto Aventura ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Dawn was amazing for our first trip as a family of 6 to Mexico! She booked our entire vacation package. When our flight had technical difficulties, she contacted transportation to our resort to make sure we were taken care of. When we arrived at our resort, we were a little lost by everything that was going on at the resort. She contacted a concierge and we were given a tour and told a the details of our trip! She made us feel welcome by giving us champagne and cookies! We were upgraded to VIP status by Dawn also! She definitely put me at ease when I worried about traveling with my kids! And she was right about everything! We were safe, happy, and had the best trip! We will be booking our next trip through Dawn, for sure!!!

The Most Memorable Trip of Our Lives!

Reviewed By Amanda - Spring Grove,IL | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Dawn was nothing but amazing!! This was my fiancé and I’s first all inclusive trip. We had no idea where to start. I contacted Dawn through a recommendation on a Facebook page. She messaged me back in such a timely manner each time I contacted her. She answered all my questions and trust me, I had A LOT of questions. She was so patient with us as we decided on our trip.
Our trip to say the least was everything and more! We actually got engaged at the resort! The resort was everything Dawn described to us and I couldn’t be more thankful!
Dawn was so fabulous. She checked in with us before we left to make sure we had everything and were all ready. She even contacted some of the employees there to advise them we were coming and when we met them we were greeted with a big hug! It felt like home! Dawn also followed up with us after the trip to see how everything was!
I would highly recommend Dawn as a travel agent! She is very attentive, caring and helpful! I will be using her again!

Best travel agent!

Reviewed By Cam - Bethesda, Maryland | Traveled to Grenada ~ Caribbean
It was a pleasure working with Dawn. I never met her and found her on the Internet as an agent focusing on St. Vincents and the Grenadines. Logistically, I did not have the time to go there. Dawn suggested Grenada, and booked me at the Rex as a VIP solo travel. Because of that, they upgraded me for free to a suite. The resort was beautiful with views of the ocean and the lake. As I love wildlife, the lake had so many birds and turtles and benches where you could sit and watch. Simply beautiful! I am already planning other destination and will def use Dawn!!!!!!!!

HONEYMOON BLISS

I wanted to take a moment out of my day to share my experience with Dawn Olson as our Travel Agent. My husband & I were married this past April, while trying to get everything arranged for that I literally had to do nothing as far as booking our honeymoon. Dawn took care of EVERYTHING, even got us an upgrade for barley a portion of what it was worth. I had no headaches with the process of booking our trip. She gave us step by step, even went out of her way to make sure we knew how to get our passports, offered to turn all the paperwork in for us and such. I could go on and on , but i will spare you our details of the beautiful resort with all inclusive food, drinks and entertainment. We are a big family with 5 kids, there was NOWAY i thought my husband and I could ever afford to take a 7 night 8 day vacation financially, she made it happen by taking payments and trusting us as much as we trusted her. I honestly cannot express in words what she did for us!
