The Hana Highway is a 64.4-mile-long stretch of Hawaii Routes 36 and 360 which connects Kahului to the town of Hana in east Maui.

Bermuda Honeymoon
Reviewed By Sd129905 - Zanesville Ohio | Traveled to Bermuda ~ Caribbean
Sherry is amazing. She is personable, down to earth, laid back, but can definitely take care of business! She planned our honeymoon from just a n are bones statement of " we need to plan our honeymoon." She helped us pick a cruise vs resort, where we could go without passports, etc. She helped with documents, papers, and making sure we knew what we needed to do. We couldn't have done it without Sherry!1

Sherry saved my Honeymoon!
Reviewed By Alyssa M - Kingston, NH | Traveled to Puerto Rico ~ USA
Sherry is on top of everything! Sherry planned our honeymoon (and rescheduled due to flight cancellations), she was patient with me while I was freaking out, responded quickly and was able to answer every question we had. Since then, I go to Sherry for even the littlest things like booking a hotel room and future vacation ideas.

Once in a life time amazing trip to South Africa!
Reviewed By Sheila - Merrimac, Massachusetts | Traveled to South Africa ~ Africa
My daughter decided to study abroad in South Africa and so we decided to go visit her while she was there. I knew when we planned the trip that I would need help and a friend had recommended a different travel agent. I quickly learnt that not all travel agents are the same. I found Sherry online after only a few interactions with the other agent. Within a few days of talking to Sherry, I had a full presentation of places to stay, choices of flights and a list of excursions. We did every excursion that was on Sherry's presentation and they were all fantastic. If I had a question, both before and during our trip, Sherry always got back to us so quickly. We stayed at three different hotels and they were all great. The people in South Africa were so friendly. I would highly recommend a trip to South Africa and I would highly recommend working with Sherry to book it. I can't say enough great things about Sherry and how great it was to work with her on our trip!

Phenomenal Two Week Family Tour of UK and Ireland
Reviewed By Jameson - Portsmouth, NH | Traveled to United Kingdom ~ Europe
Sherry's expertise and knowledge helped us tremendously to plan all aspects of a two week UK and Ireland driving tour. She helped identify excellent places to stay (including a castle), eat (many great local restaurants and pubs), and visit (palaces, castles, distinct landmarks and fun local places of interest). This is our second trip that she's helped to plan. Her experience, work effort, and resources are second to none!

Sherry makes both planning & travel SEAMLESS!
Reviewed By Stacie Delzingo - ARLINGTON, MA | Traveled to St. Thomas ~ Virgin Islands ~ Caribbean
Sherry works hard to build us vacations of a lifetime. We like to immerse ourselves in the culture and let it take us where the wind blows, rather than have a planned itinerary. Sherry understands our travel style so well, always finding niche offerings & out of the ordinary experiences that we really enjoy. Traveling at the height of Covid presented all of us with unique challenges and restrictions, but Sherry made it her mission to send us off completely prepared and with good understanding of the rapidly changing rules.. I have recommended her to everyone I know and would never use anyone else. Her enthusiasm and willingness to go the extra mile make it truly a pleasure. Thank you, Sherry.

The best Travel Agent Ever
Reviewed By Very satisfied Nana & Opy - Merrimac, Mass | Traveled to Florida ~ USA
This past year we decided to use a referral for an experienced travel agent/person to help us in planning a trip to Disney with the family that has never been. (five of us)Sherry went above and beyond what we expected. She took care of everything and anything. Left us with only planning what clothing items we would bring on the trip. I never realized how easy she could actually make things happen. I would rely on her expertise no matter where or when we are planning a trip. I have also happily referred her to others.

Multi-Generation Family Vacation Success!
Sherry booked an amazing multi-generation family vacation for us! Our ideas probably changed 100 times as we began planning: Would we go on a cruise? Stay at an all-inclusive resort? Rent a house? Sherry was always willing to answer questions, give experienced advice on each option and send us pricing packages... and never seemed frustrated as we kept changing paths We ended up pleasing everyone in our extended family of 9 with a day at Disney, a day at Universal and a beach house rental (plus flight, car rental, hotel...) Sherry got everything set up and booked for us, including travel insurance, and followed up on any further questions we had. Before we left, she presented us with personalized folders of our travel documents and reminded us of her availability if we needed anything during our trip. We had the best time, and it was exactly what we all needed/wanted! I whole-heartedly recommend working with Sherry for all your vacation needs: I know I will!
