Amazing Travel Agent!
Reviewed By Elizabeth S. - Santan Valley, AZ | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
She was very clear cut and to the point. She heard what I wanted and what was important to me and gave me options to choose from and when I asked her opinion on things she was very transparent. She was very detailed and made sure my trip with my husband was perfect. I don't think I'll ever book my own trip again. We had the best vacation ever.

We had been searching on other travel sites before reaching out to Jackie and couldn't find a place that met all our wants/needs. After reaching out to her, she immediately gave us the perfect spot with several other suggestions as well. It was so easy to book with her and cheaper than going through other sites.

I wouldn’t have been able to put together out family trip to Italy without Jackie! She was on top of every detail from beginning to end and everything in between! So thankful for Jackie’s help and support throughout our planning process! With a large group of 8, to me it seemed extremely difficult. For Jackie she handed it like a pro!

Family Vacation success to Hard Rock Riviera Maya!
Just had a family amazing vacation in Mexico! Thank you to Jackie Garcia, Vacations By J for literally doing everything for us!!! We told her where we wanted to go and what our interests are and gave her a budget and she nailed it! She planned all of it! Jackie knows her stuff! We are not experienced travelers and she went above and beyond from answering every single question we had to getting a late night panic call when we were ready to fly out and 1 person had the stomach flu. She was just always there for us! We will definitely call Vacations By J for every trip we take!
