Best Honeymoon Ever!

Reviewed By Melanie - Denver, CO | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Alicia put together our Honeymoon to Disney & Universal and we could not be happier. She got to know both of us so she knew just which hotel we would like the best, which restaurants we would like to eat at and even which parks to go to each day. She spent so much time making sure our honeymoon was the best. Thanks Alicia!

An outstanding trip !

Reviewed By Carolyn - Littleton, Co | Traveled to Spain ~ Europe
Alicia is the best! She is now "my go to" for most everything. I found her only by chance. I usually do the planning for most of my family and have been doing this for years. This was a trip to Spain over the Christmas holidays and I ran into some unusual problems. She had the answers and stayed in touch the entire time. In particular, the trains in Spain, which present unique challenges. She always responded in a timely manner. Her
complete knowledge of travel in Spain was especially helpful. You can relax
if she is helping you plan a trip. I will most certainly call her in the future.

Epic Trip

Reviewed By DC - Kirkland | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Alicia handled our family trip to Alaska which included a land tour package. She gave us great advice about doing the land package first which was so much easier on my 85 year old parents. All of the transportation and transfers were seamless. She also helped handle a last minute passport issue which could have been catastrophic but was happily resolved. We've already booked our next trip with her.

The Trip We Dreamed Of

Reviewed By Marilee - Steilacoom, Washington | Traveled to Europe
Alicia was referred to us by a former travel agent who no longer worked in the industry. We could not have been happier. She was available when I needed her and extremely helpful when booking hotels, flights, train information. You name it, she could do it. She understood the way we like to travel but advised us if she wanted us to think of other options. That really was helpful when it came to booking some high speed train travel. Alicia really stepped up with hotel arrangements and found us the perfect places to stay.

Planes, Trains, Cars with Alicia

Reviewed By Carol Evans - Kirkland, WA | Traveled to Europe
Alicia planned two wonderful trips for us. The first one was with our entire family (including two little girls) to the UK, with multiple stops. The hotels were exactly what we requested - boutique hotels with history. Alicia arranged all of the tours and rail passages. Before the trip, she met with us to make sure everything was okay with us. She also gave us helpful tips, such as using carry-ons so that we can get on and off trains easily. Alicia was available 24/7 while we were on our trip. For our second trip, we told Alicia that we wanted a calm, leisurely travel to places from our favorite British shows. At the last minute, while on our trip, we wanted to change the itinerary. Alicia was able to find us a centrally located hotel in London, and obtained refunds on previously booked hotels and rail tickets. Both trips were memorable, and we will call upon Alicia for future trips!
