Fly Fishing in Alaska

When I planned our family trip to Alaska, I knew we'd be having some experiences that were "firsts" for us. I had reserved a guided fishing trip in Willow that was family-friendly, from the shore, with multiple guides to help our family of 7. Little did I know, it would be ...

Amazing memories, brought to us courtesy of Ami!

Reviewed By spanishmiss430 - Albion, Maine | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Ami helped us plan an Orlando vacation that we had been dreaming about for years. She was amazing! She sat down with us to ask all about our priorities and must-do rides and attractions. She shared helpful videos and resources for us to review. She created detailed trip plans for each day of our adventures, incorporating all our priorities and in an order that would save us the most time/energy over the course of the day. She also helped us figure out systems that were new to us, helpful apps for our trip, and checked crowd calendars to ensure we had chosen the best possible days for each park we visited. Going on this trip without her help and expertise would have felt so stressful, and instead it felt like a true vacation. I highly recommend her services!

Just what we needed!

Reviewed By JulieMcK - Albion, ME | Traveled to Maine ~ USA
Ami helped us with our 25 year Anniversary trip a few hours away from home, and it was PERFECT with our goals of a getaway, on a lake, with canoes available. Ami identified two possibilities and both would have fit our desires but the one we chose turned out to be just outstanding! What a lovely cottage right on Brassau Lake! Ami was easily reachable, approachable, & informative, and she was very tuned in to our needs and desires! Thank you to Ami & we will certainly continue to utilize her services!

Checked off our bucket list!

Reviewed By Carrie - Bangor, ME | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
This was my first experience using a travel agent. My adult children and I wanted to see Alaska. I contacted Ami Newell and provided a wish list. She put together a fabulous itinerary. We also need special consideration for gluten free options. Ami worked diligently to find local restaurants and order GF meals on our excursions, if available. We saw bears, walked on a glacier, went sledding with champion Iditarod dogs, hiked Hatcher's Pass, panned for gold, went 43 miles into Denali National Park and cruised the bay. It was a trip we will always remember. I also appreciated that she was a call or text away if there were any problems. Luckily, we did not encounter anything. I highly recommend Ami Newell. We look forward to planning our next trip!

Ami was very helpful when we were booking our delayed honeymoon trip. We researched several locations prior to making our selection. She answered all questions thoroughly and promptly. While we were on resort, we had an issue canceling a pre booked excursion and the website would not let us do it on our own. Ami quickly resolved the problem. Thanks Ami for making it a great trip!

Our Best Family Trip Ever!

Reviewed By Newell Family - Fairfield, Maine | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Ami was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and fashioned our trip according to our likes and wishes and budget. She also had a solution to a potential problem before we even knew it was a potential problem. She helped with all the planning along the way, so that once we got on sight, there was very little to worry about. She answered any and all questions we had along the way. She was even available for any concerns we had mid trip. Our trip would not have been as smooth as it was without her!

Ami took care of it all!!

Reviewed By Jeff - Nashville, TN | Traveled to Bar Harbor ~ Maine ~ USA
Ami went above and beyond at planning all the details of a 5 day trip for a small group of 6. She planned and arranged activities, reservations for recommended restaurants, knew how and when to arrange for the "special sunrise" event atop Cadillac Mountain. She arranged back up support when I was on the trip and had to change plans at the last minute due to weather. In short, she was an awesome agent! Highly recommended. Many, many thanks!

Trip of a lifetime!

Ami planned a very complex trip for my family of 8 to Alaska all the way from Georgia! Everything went smoothly and the trip was absolutely amazing. We flew, rented a car, got on a train, a bus, multiple shuttles, even a boat! We stayed at 5 different places. I couldn’t fathom having to have navigated this without her. Highly, highly recommend!

Amazing road trip!

Reviewed By Spanishmiss430 - Albion, Maine | Traveled to Washington D.C. ~ District of Columbia ~ USA
Ami helped us plan our recent two-week road trip with our pop-up camper, to Washington, D.C. We were initially very overwhelmed with all the possibilities, and trying to figure out an efficient plan for how to best tackle the many things we wanted to do. Ami took in all the things we were interested in and did her research! She helped us see what would be reasonable for our time frame, the weather, etc. and what might be a reach and better saved for another time. She figured out the ins and outs of which places required tickets, timed entries, or were okay to simply walk in; and gave us dates/times to set as reminders on our phones to ensure we got tickets to everything we wanted when they became available. She also helped idenitfy a few choies of campgrounds for us to explore and helped us see the pros and cons of each. She also found interesting opportunities (like a private museum tour) that we never would have known about on our own, and really enjoyed. We highly recommend her!

I would never cruise without Ami's help!

Reviewed By Sarah White - Seattle, WA | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
I was terrified of taking my first cruise, especially during covid with so many rules and things that needed to be done. Ami helped me to get the best rate, recommend hassle free covid tests, sent me reminders over 18 months about what I needed to do and when. She helped me during the cruise to get a refund on an excursion that was cancelled. It is so helpful to have an expert navigate the stresses of a new experience and help you get the best deals.

As soon as I got home I booked a cruise to Antarctica through Ami. She is so helpful and accessible. I feel so fortunate to have found her.
