We felt like VIPs
Reviewed By Andrew - Maywood, New Jersey | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
I reached out to Denise Ambrusko-Maida to book my family trip to Nickelodeon Resort in Punta Cana for July 2018. This was one of the best decisions I ever made. Denise was efficient, expedient, enthusiastic, and most of all patient in handling all of my family’s needs. Denise was thorough in everything she did. She verbally told me, emailed me, and mailed me everything we needed for our trip.
Fast forward to the trip. When we arrived at Nickelodeon, there was an issue with making reservations for dinner. I called Denise and without hesitation, we were booked in one of the restaurants and treated like VIPs while there.
I can’t thank Denise enough for all that she did to make my family trip unforgettable. Anytime anyone is planning any type of vacation, you would be wise in contacting Denise to handle all your travel needs.

Travel Brilliant helped us with our trip to Puerto Rico with Gays with Kids, and it was the most organized trip ever! From start to end, Denise was on top of everything. She made sure we had fun, and everything went smoothly. If we ever travel again, we will definitely be returning back to Denise and Travel Brilliant.

Honeymoon for the Ages
Reviewed By Bret - Buffalo, ny | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
When my wife and i decided we wanted to go to Greece for our honeymoon we felt overwhelmed by the abundance of amazing places there that were options. I found Denise online and from the first time we spoke, i knew we were in good hands. She put together the most organized and amazing itinerary with tours and experiences in Athens, Ios, Naxos and Santorini. All we had to do was show up. All the travel vouchers, hotels, ferries etc were taken care of. It made our honeymoon stress free and absolutely perfect. She was so great i am working with her on creating golf getaway trips with our golf ball company. I will be working with Denise again, and again and again!

Literally, the best vacation ever!!!!
Reviewed By Lisa N - Amherst, NY | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
Many thanks to Denise for putting together a fantastic vacation for my family and me. I have always planned our family vacations, so placing this incredible task in someone else's hands was challenging. I searched for multiple reasons to worry, but Denise was so knowledgeable and reassuring that she made it easy to trust her expertise. She selected the location as well as the resort. Both were breathtaking and felt as if this was exactly where we should be.
When East coast weather forced our connecting flight to cancel, Denise secured two rooms so we could go to another lovely hotel when we landed. She just made everything so much easier. I cannot praise her enough for her kindness and her service. I will never plan another vacation ever again. Thank you many times over, Denise.

Incredible Alaskan Cruise Adventure
Reviewed By Matthew P. - Buffalo, NY | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
We worked with Travel Brilliant on a trip to Alaska and had an absolutely fabulous time. On Denise's recommendation we took a helicopter to the top of a glacier and hiked around for the day, it was an absolutely perfect day. The helicopter pilot said it was the best day all year as she flew us around the Juno ice field allowing to see absolutely beautiful vistas! It was a an incredible experience and look forward to our next trip!
