Five Star Recommendation
Reviewed By Molly OBrien - Cedar Rapids, IA | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Hands down the best travel agent I have worked with! We have never had major travel issues and I contemplated trying to book everything on my own without an agent...so glad I didn't and booked through Karen. Our airline had mechanical issues causing us to miss out connecting flight. One message to Karen and she went straight to work. She helped with locating replacement flights, getting approval from resort to have our arrival and departure dates adjusted, rearranging transportation from airport to resort and resort back for return flight. If it were not for Karen I would have spent my entire vacation on the phone trying to rearrange flights, hotels etc. Karen made situations out of our control be as painless as possible and we are forever grateful for the time that we could focus on our family and not on travel details. Never skimp on travel insurance and a good agent!

The Trip of a Lifetime!
Reviewed By Kaley D - Guilford, CT | Traveled to Paris ~ France ~ Europe
Our recent Adventures by Disney and Disneyland Paris trip was seamless and flawless every step of the way. Our trip included international flights, a 7-night AmaAwaterways Seine River Cruise, 2 nights in Paris, and 3 nights at Disneyland Paris. Karen Shelton helped to plan every detail, from flights to transfers to insurance; even with so many moving pieces, nothing was left to chance. Karen has worked tirelessly to help my family plan one wonderful luxury vacation after another in the years we have been working together. No matter the type of trip or the destination, I know that we always have a trusted advocate in her. And while she is an “Authorized Disney Vacation Planner,” she can assist with any type of trip, any destination, and on any budget. Her knowledge of the industry, and her patience, and her innovation and expertise make her simply the best! I recommend her entirely and without hesitation.

Great trip!
Reviewed By Jennifer S - South Elgin, IL | Traveled to Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Karen was exceptional in making our vacation the best it could be! She was helpful in answering all of my questions and making sure that every little detail was taken care of. We don't travel much as a family and she took care of the small details that made traveling with our kids so easy. She even took care of things that I didn't realize needed to be done!

The best week of our lives!
Reviewed By Demi and Chris Barkley - Irmo, SC | Traveled to Mexico
Had a great experience working with Karen! There was some issues with the booking website with our large group at first, but other than that it was a great overall process. Highly recommend doing transportation through their company- it made it super easy once we got there. Our wedding day was perfect and everything we envisioned it to be. Thank you for recommending Secrets Moxche to us for our destination wedding!

Karen Adds Great Value To Our Travel Experience
Reviewed By STHCruising - Plano, Texas | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Frustrated with pandemic era travel, I turned to Karen Shelton at "My Path Unwinding/Luxury Travel PHD". Karen showed us the value of working through a Travel Advisor (TA). All the frustration gone! The added value of a knowledgeable and personable TA who has opened up an array of new travel experiences we had not previously consider. Karen has adds so much value to our overall travel experience, and she has had our back which is important in these times of trying travel. One example was when we missed a cruise during COVID and had to scramble to find a hotel at the embarkation port. Karen was there for us and handled everything. Another example, was after a cruise we knew we would need an extra night in the debarkation port. Rather than put us at the airport hotel, Karen arranged a night at the most splendid, elegant hotel on the Mediterranean Sea. We have booked all of our future travel needs through Karen and would not think of going elsewhere. She is excellent!

Meticulously planned itinerary and a PERFECT vacation!
Reviewed By MamaT - Nashville, TN | Traveled to
Karen has planned several of our family vacations (4 so far) our most recent one being a Disney cruise, concierge level. It was AMAZING!! :) Her attention to detail and ability to plan the latest and greatest activities, dining and events is super impressive. She makes it so easy....we talk about what we want to do and a budget and she comes back with such fun ideas! We spent a few days in WDW after the cruise and she had all of our fast passes pre-programmed into our bracelets all we had to do was show up...and walk past all the people in line! If you want to save time, get the most value for your vacation and experience really fun and unique excursions/activities/dining, Karen is who you need to call!! If I could give her 6 stars I would!

Eased Anxiety Over Rebooking
Reviewed By Disvillain - Evans, Ga | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
Karen was a gift. With the cruise industry's sudden cancelation of almost two additional months of cruises, we were overwhelmed on how to proceed. We hadn't used DCL or a TA to book our cruise, but I had been on a few Facebook groups with Karen. I reached out to her for some guidance. She offered her services and we accepted. Karen helped take our anxiety away, rebooked our cruise, and walked us through changing our travel insurance. We will definitely look to her in the future.

Shares in the excitement of planning!
Reviewed By Kim - South Carolina | Traveled to
I have been so happy to have Karen take over as my travel agent. While the job was getting done by someone else, I didn't feel like I had open communication with the agent.I love having someone I can run ideas by or gain information about trips . A consumer always wants to have their best interests taken care of and I feel like I have that with Karen. She is just as excited to help me plan a trip as I am to take it. Priceless!

Karen is the best TA by far
Reviewed By Cruisegrandpa - Marvin, NC | Traveled to
In the past 30+ years, we sailed on over 40 cruises. We always used travel agents to book our trips with different results.
Booking with Karen was by far the best experience for us. Her enthusiasm, knowledge and dedication to detail is admirable.
Karen takes the time to research all options in order to achieve the ultimate travel experience for the best price.

Planned an excellent trip for a large group
Reviewed By Gerri K - Waxhaw, NC | Traveled to
Karen planned an excellent vacation for 3 families which included 6 adults and 9 teenagers/ young adults ranging in age from 13-20. We went on vacation over the Christmas holiday and she booked it a few months before the trip. She was able to find us an excellent family all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana. We were all on the same flights and flight times were ideal. Before we left on the trip, she was able to make dinner reservations for us as we had such a large group. She also followed up several times with the resort to make sure that the younger teens were placed near adults as they were staying in their own room- in fact, we had 7 rooms and all were right near each other, which was great. The vacation turned out to be fantastic- everyone loved the resort. Karen was excellent to work with, always following through and getting back to us with information that was requested. I would definitely recommend having Karen book your next trip!

Karen was excellent!
Reviewed By KS - Indian Trail, NC | Traveled to
Karen helped us to plan a girls trip to Jamaica. She was quick to respond with answers and recommendations as we narrowed down the details of our trip. She recommended an excellent resort and arranged the details that made the stay even more enjoyable. She coordinated flights from 3 different cities to arrive at the same time and we had transportation waiting for us to go to the resort. When something wasn't right at the resort, she was able to handle it from afar. I highly recommend using Karen for any travel needs you have.
