Our first cruise
Reviewed By Doug - West Lafayette, Indiana | Traveled to Caribbean
Stephanie helped us plan our first cruise when she was working for AAA. Since it was the first cruise we had been on, we needed lots of help. Stephanie was fantastic. She walked us through every aspect of the cruise, and guided us every step of the way. We were so impressed with Stephanie's service, that we are having her help us plan our next cruise, we will continue using her company to help us with any future travel plans we have.

No fuss travel made possible with Travel Girl!
Reviewed By Business Trip - Lafayette, IN | Traveled to Palm Springs ~ California ~ USA
Stephanie booked my annual Business Trip for me to Palm Springs, CA. She took care of EVERYTHING! From planning the flights, hotels and car rentals, she made my trip truly simple and efficient! I needed someone to do the work for me and do it well and she nailed it! And, yeah, I could have done the trip myself, but why? She saved me tons of time and money AND I was helping to support a small business. It's really a no brainer for any one with a busy schedule.
The super cute itinerary was perfect also. Flight, hotel and car information all in one place. And she even put local hotspots for dining in the back along with nearby parks and places of interest.
Stephanie did not skimp on one single aspect of my trip and I am thrilled that she is planning my next trip. I look forward to working with her in the years to come! Thank you Stephanie and Travel Girl for taking care of me!

Travel Detail and Inspiration to Explore!
Reviewed By Steven - Lafayette, IN | Traveled to St. Lucia ~ Caribbean
Stephanie has provided me with excellent background info so that my wife and I can travel, explore , relax and truly enjoy our vacation time. She has helped us plan trips to California, Denver, two separate vacations to the Grand Caymans, and she helped us find and book a week at Jade Mountain resort on St. Lucia, which is located inside a United Nations nature preserve and rated the #1 luxury resort in the entire Caribbean. We have also used Stephanie to book other long weekend trips in the United States. Stephanie is wonderful to work with -- we recommend her enthusiastically!
