Alison was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of our trip. She was patient with our big group never seemed bothered to answer and re-answer many of the same questions. Everything she planned for us ran smoothly. We had absolutely no complaints. She is great at what she does!

My 86 year old mother had always wanted to go visit the settting of her favorite childhood book, Anne of Green Gables on Prince Edward Island. When we decided to go, I immediately called Alison and she made EVERY SINGLE ARRANGEMENT for us; flights, hotels, theatre and car. She even wrote out a tentative daily schedule for us. This was incredibly helpful as my mom wanted to know what we were doing everyday. Even during the trip when we had a small issue, Alison was right on it and helped problem solve it for us. This trip was immensely low stress and one of the most memorable trips. My mom also commented on how much she trusted and appreciated the work Alison put into the planning. I would, and have, highly recommend Alison to any and all friends and family who have inquired about my travels. I plan to have Alison plan all of my future excursions!

Alison is super thorough and friendly, too! She is really quick to respond to questions and was always happy to provide new, updated options when our dates/destination changed. She found us an amazing deal! We loved the hotel and are glad she pointed out that bike rentals were included with the resort fee because we had a blast biking on the beach!

Very helpful and timely. Wonderful tools and information provided at every step. Also, an excellent resource while abroad.

Alison made the planning and preparation for our trip easy and free from worry.

Allison was very organized and helpful every step of the way! She even made sure there were vegetarian options for me on the plane and river cruise. Her attention to detail was much appreciated!

From beginning to end, Alison made our trip unforgettable! Her dedication to our preferences was spot on and did not disappoint! Alison did not leave any detail unturned! We were grateful to the excursions recommended and used as well as the extremely quick airport service! We were able to bypass any lines! We were pleasantly surprised when we were delivered a beautiful bottle of champagne along with a special note and fruit! Alison truly made this vacation one to remember!

Alison has been an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish of planning our most recent Europe trip. She took the time to listen to our preferences and tweaked our itinerary until it was perfect for us. Leading up to leaving she provided tips and and useful information to set our travels up for success. During our trip (with a 6 hour time difference) she was responsive and efficient in assisting us with some things we needed help with while overseas. After our trip, she listened to the positives and worked with the appropriate parties for rectify a negative experience we had (which was no fault of hers or the agency). The App is amazing and I'm so glad this was a feature we could use to download our itinerary and communicate with Alison. We're already planning our next trip with her. THANK YOU for helping with what was the best vacation to date!!

Allison is hands on to ensure you are ready and prepared for your trip. She is ready to take care of you if you have any issues while traveling, thankfully we had none .

Alison is always prompt, professional and helpful. I highly recommend letting her help you with any travel needs.

Alison did a fantastic job planning our trip. She provided options and information to help us make the perfect decision. Every detail was taken care of and she provided information to ensure our travels and experiences were perfect. Alison is wonderful.

Alison is always on top of all of the questions we have had for her. She is coming to us letting us know important dates as they come up such as final payments due.

Alison was very efficient and friendly. She answered all our questions quickly, offered suggestions, and completed our finalized trip with ease. We loved the goodie bag she sent us (a small backpack, charging cords, beach towel chair holders) and our full itinerary. She followed up with us before, during and after our trip with timely reminders, and a genuine interest in our happiness for our overall experience. We would highly recommend Alison Evanson for all our future travel plans! You should, too!

Great. Knowledgeable. Personable. Well communicated & hassle-free. We anticipate & enjoy the trip while Alison takes care of the nitty gritty logistics... From ideas, to planning, suggestions, execution, & updates.

Alison is detail-oriented, which means everything... especially when traveling internationally. The clerk at the first hotel at which we stayed was thrilled by the amount of advance work Alison had done for our check-in because it made his job so much easier.

Alison is always so pleasant to work with! She looks for the best packages and keeps the customer's budget in mind. Alison is very prompt with getting quotes and is always there if I have any questions at all. If she doesn't know an answer to a question, she will find out and get back to me A.S.A.P. Alison goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes smoothly with my trips. If there are ever any hiccups, she addresses them right away and keeps me in the loop about what's going on. I really love the extra touches that she gives, for example, she sends thank you cards and even mailed us some luggage tags and a little backpack! She is just the best! I'll always use Alison for when we travel!

Alison is excellent. Great attention to detail. Lots of informative communication and follow up. Very responsive when we had questions. Highly recommend.

Excellent! Answers all my annoying emails, txt and phone calls! ??

Our Amalfi Coast honeymoon, planned with The Happy Suitcase, was the easiest experience and most fun we’ve had on a vacation yet. We had the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation, without the worries of how to get from one place to the next or what tour to take. We officially can’t go back to the way we used to travel.

Alison was amazing to works with! her communications were clear and planning outstanding. We wanted for nothing!

Alison was so helpful in answering all questions and planning all details for our honeymoon to St. Lucia. She was knowledgeable about all covid protocols, even as they were constantly changing. It was wonderful knowing that she had prepared and communicated everything we would need for our trip, especially with the craziness of planning a wedding! She helped put our minds at ease, so we could truly enjoy this once in a lifetime trip without all the stress!

Words cannot put into words all Alison endured to get our group of 11 our dream vacation together all coming from 3 seperate locations. Alison is so patient, informative, and reassuring - especially with all the guidelines in place because of Covid. I will never travel without booking through her - she is amazing.

Alison planned our 1st post pandemic trip for two best friends. She listened to our ideas and suggested several activities and places to visit. It turned out to be an epic Chicago adventure for us. She arranged reservations, tickets, maps, and even rescheduled an outing when a medical situation developed. Great planning and I will continue to use Alison at The Happy Suitcase for future travel.
