Travel Agent
Aloha, from Hawaii
Hi. I'm Leslie, a New Orleans based Travel Agent who loves all things travel. I graduated from Louisiana State University (Geaux Tigers) and worked in the hospitality industry before I started growing my family.
Once we started traveling more, friends would often reach out for advice/ assistance and encourage me to "plan vacations for my job."
..and the rest is history!
I care deeply about my clients and value each and every opportunity that comes my way. When you book with Brightside Travel Co., you aren't just another booking to elevate my spot on a leader board. Guest experience is what I value most- your vacation memories are so important to me. As your planning partner, I'm here to guide you every step of the way and provide you with a smooth, happy and memorable travel experience, wherever that may be!

Leslie made our trip to Disney unforgettable and everything we hoped it would be! She gave us tips to get tickets to a sold out Christmas party and managed to get us reservations for some dinners that are nearly impossible to get! She will stay on the phone for hours at all hours of the day to make sure everyone has a wonderful trip!

Best of the Best!
Reviewed By tonylejarza - New Orleans, LA | Traveled to Sedona ~ Arizona ~ USA
Working with Leslie has been such an amazing experience! We first booked with Leslie for our honeymoon to Sedona, AZ. I was absolutely amazed by the work that Leslie put into our trip! Since then, Leslie has taken care of us with traveling to Mexico via Disney Cruise, as well as a "Mom & Dad" vacation to the Battle House Renaissance Hotel in Mobile, AL. The consistency of Leslie has left me speechless. She has taken care of a honeymoon, first family trip out of the USA, & a small getaway, & the service has been exceptional.
Leslie has left a life impression on us & we will continue to rely on her for her expertise!
She is AMAZING!
Thank you for all that you do!

Great planning experience
Reviewed By Ashley - Berkley, California | Traveled to Europe
My husband and I took a 2 week trip to Europe a few months ago. We used Brightside Travel to book our train tickets, hotels and activities. It took all the stress out of planning such a big trip. Leslie was available for all of our questions before our trip and even during it with the huge time change. She worked hard to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. We had the best time thanks to her hard work (and no work on my part).
