Hudson Valley Group
Reviewed By Trish - Ardmore, PA | Traveled to New York ~ USA
Heather planned an amazing group trip to the Hudson Valley with consideration to every last detail.
The highly personalized itinerary that Heather provided had something for everyone, and highlighted not only the
"must sees" but also some quieter finds that I was personally not aware of. I highly recommend Heather for an excellent travel experience!

Hudson Valley West Point Moms Trip
Reviewed By Colleen - West Chester, PA | Traveled to New York ~ USA
Heather from Merge Travel helped us plan an unforgettable West Point Moms’ long weekend trip! She researched all the things to see and do in the Hudson Valley before our cadets graduate! She found us a historic and comfortable place to stay that slept 8+ and tailored the trip to be flexible to allow for the different interests and abilities of everyone going. Some highlights include hiking the ‘Trail of the Fallen,’ arranging a behind the scenes tour of Unshattered, setting up a tour of a local wine cellar, and making reservations to experience dinner at the Culinary Institute of America to name just a few! Her planning, effort and extra attention to detail meant we saw and did everything we wanted to and we were able to relax knowing it was all taken care of! I highly recommend for Heather to plan your next trip!!

Family Trip of Lifetime to Greece
Reviewed By Brian - Washington | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
Our travel agent, Heather Wassel took excellent care in planning our trip and taking care of us. She was very prompt in all communication and checking in with us through the entire process and during our trip. She asked us what we wanted and worked with us to make it happen. Her wealth of knowledge on travel with flights, connections, hotels, tours, and drivers for transportation made our trip relaxed and left us free to enjoy all the experiences. We had a small hiccup with a flight delay as we left Athens, and she rescheduled us as soon as she was notified for another flight without us even contacting her about the delay. It was such a relief. She also knew the area and once we had described what we were looking for, she had a recommendation to stay in Naxos. Because she personally knew the area, she found a great fit for our family. We knew she was personally invested in helping our family create a trip of a lifetime. Thank you so much Heather!!

We had a great experience working with Heather at Merge to plan our vacation in Switzerland. She did a lot of research on the area to provide us with many different options for hotels, excursions, restaurants, etc. I often contacted her with questions or to request additional information and she always responded with answers. Even during our vacation she was readily available to help when one of our tours was cancelled at the last minute.

Hawaiian Vacation
Reviewed By Jason B - PA | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA
Our family had the pleasure of having Heather Wassel from Merge Travel plan our unforgettable trip to Hawaii. Spanning close to two weeks between the Big Island and Kauai, every moment was meticulously crafted. Heather's recommendations and reservations allowed us to experience the best of what Hawaii has to offer. From witnessing the awe-inspiring eruption of the volcano on the Big Island to the surreal experience of swimming with Manta rays at night, every activity was a highlight. Her attention to detail is unparalleled, ensuring a perfect balance between guided adventures and personal exploration time. When an unexpected flight cancellation threatened to extend our stay, Heather promptly rearranged our travel plans, ensuring we weren't stranded. If there were an option for 6 stars, Heather would undoubtedly receive it from us. Thank you, Heather, for making our Hawaiian vacation truly one for the ages!

MANY thanks to Heather at Merge Travel for her time in planning an itinerary so our family could travel into New York City, to enjoy a bit of Christmas, just prior to the big kickoff of the holiday season. She designed a day in which we were able to experience some sights, which were “firsts” for us. We found working with Heather to be very enjoyable, and she absolutely desired to schedule our time, in the city, according to what our family had interest in doing. Thank you for helping us make memories!!

Dream Trip to Scotland
Reviewed By Karin - Harleysville, PA | Traveled to Scotland ~ Europe
Heather planned my dream trip to Scotland to visit many of the beautiful sites featured in the Outlander TV show as well as a few extra (and equally fascinating) castles!
Heather arranged for 4 and 5 star hotels with an excellent level of service in interesting locations (e.g. castles)
Dinner recommendations became delicious dining opportunities and were conveniently located to our hotels. We dined gourmet, locally sourced cuisine as well as some pub style fare.
Some beautiful hikes were recommended on the Isle of Skye so we could explore “off the beaten path.”
I was able to explore the Wild Atlantic and the ruggedly beautiful Highlands in addition to intriguingly-storied castles (including Balmoral!). Mostly, I enjoyed following in Jamie and Claire’s footsteps reliving some of my favorite Outlander moments!
It was the perfect trip, and I am grateful for Heather as they were able to take my travel dream and turn dream and turn it some beautiful travel memories!!!
