We have had such great experiences working with Globe Sage and Christie on our travel plans! She’s incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, thorough, professional, prompt, and skilled at getting us a great deal that fits within our budget every time. I especially appreciate how she goes the extra mile to take into consideration our family’s unique needs and all the things she has learned about how we like to travel.

Best Travel Agent/Consultant/Advisor Ever !!

Reviewed By Diana D - Boston, MA | Traveled to St. Martin ~ St. Martin ~ Caribbean
Christie and her team are absolutely AMAZING. I am the Organizer of a Travel Meetup Group for over 6 + years and have used a number of Travel Agents in the past. Christie is GEM!! She is not your ordinary Travel Agent, she is a Travel Advisor/Consultant and is superior to none in travel planning. She listens, her attention to detail is astonishing, she always adds an element of surprise to our trips, a great communicator, always available to answer questions. I absolutely love her booking system it's so easy. She takes care of everything for my travel group and I do not need to worry about one thing - The only thing I need to do is enjoy and relax on our group trips, no matter our large or small. I cannot say enough of how much I love working with her. We have planned trips to: Sedona, Arizona & Albuquerque, NM: Rose Parade & California; Antigua; San Francisco; a Small Yacht trip to Croatia and land tour in Montenegro. I will never use another Travel Advisor !! Perfection!!!

Lifesavers!

Reviewed By African Mama Travel - Rancho Cucamonga | Traveled to Argentina ~ South America
I cannot express how wonderful these ladies are! We had a pretty complex family trip to Argentina planned before COVID hit. Once we realized this trip was not going to be possible with COVID, Christie and Docoda came up with a swift plan to tackle all the cancellations, refunds and presented all the options. to me quickly. I would NOT even have known where to start..
We had a detailed itinerary with accommodations and activities suitable for my young daughters (one of whom is autistic) . Christie and Dacoda were mindful of what activities would be autism friendly and made sure the tours/activities would work for your family. In the end they provided a beautiful app with an itinerary and additional logistical details.
We will still make it to Argentina and other destinations and look forward to using Globe Sage Travel.
These ladies are truly a dynamic duo - you can just sit back and enjoy dreaming about your trip!

Best impromptu trip ever

Reviewed By M - Rancho Cucamonga | Traveled to Croatia ~ Europe
I have worked with Christie before and enjoyed her professionalism but this time was a real testament of how great she is! She arranged a trip to Croatia in THREE DAYS and it was flawless! I had to cancel a previously planned trip and pivot into a solo trip that had to be planned in a few days and she pulled it off. From selecting a beautiful gem of a hotel, arranging all the transfers and my desired activities she made my trip relaxing and just what the doctor ordered! The speed with which she handled all the changes and created a new itinerary was amazing. I had a brand new trip arranged in three days and it was just super from beginning to end.

Best first cruise experience!

Reviewed By Marquisha N - Las Vegas, NV | Traveled to Ensenada ~ Baja California Norte ~ Mexico
Christie is AMAZING! I had a very quick turnaround to plan for my brother’s birthday celebration and we all decided on a Royal Caribbean cruise. I was literally 2 weeks out from our trip when I contacted Christie, and she made the process extremely simple. We are first time cruisers, had no idea what to expect, how to prepare, and after multiple YouTube recommendations to hire a travel agent – I began my search and was so thankful I stumbled upon Christie. As mentioned, this was a first-time cruise and first-time experience working with a travel agent. As nerve-racking as this could be, Christie ensured we were in good hands. She listened to our requests, made recommendations to suit our needs, and offered so many tips/tricks to make the most out of our vacation! The cruise was amazing and all the information she provided made us well prepared! We made the most out of our vacation despite the short turn around for planning and that would not have been made possible without her.

Christie Costello responded:
Marquisha, you are so kind! I am thrilled that I was helpful, but I'm even more excited that your cruise was amazing! Yay!!!

Thank you for allowing me to serve, and please let me know if I can be helpful in the future - groups, celebrations, custom trips, you name it. Looking forward to assisting you and your family again.

My family and I have had the most wonderful experience with Christie Costello. We wanted to recreate a past vacation to Alaska. We contacted Christie and told her the places we'd like to visit. She then proceeded to plan the most incredible trip for us! She researched excursions that would be appropriate for the ages of our party and scheduled a wonderful exciting trip for us. Each month prior to our trip, she sent us valuable information as to what to expect at each location and how we could prepare to take full advantage of our trip. Three weeks out, we received a digital itinerary complete with all vouchers and tickets. Additionally, we received a FedEx package with the same printed information and additional treasures! She sent us a hard cover National Geographic. We could not have asked for better service than what we have experienced! We will continue to recommend and book Christie's services in the future. She is a wonderful travel agent!
