The best belated honeymoon
Reviewed By Eddie and Abby - Bakersfield, CA | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Kathi is amazing at helping with every aspect of planning a trip. My husband and I had some thought of where we wanted our next family vacation to be, but Kathi gave us multiple options, answered a million questions for us, and ultimately booked us a dream come true vacation that we will be taking in June. Excursions, airfare, hotels, and airport transportation can all be booked through Kathi. She is amazing at finding the best deals at the lowest price. And if there is a question she might not have an answer to, she spends her time finding it.

Wonderful and fun!
Reviewed By Courtney - Marina Del Rey, CA | Traveled to
Kathi was amazing! She took all the stress of planning a vacation away. My husband and I are vacationing to Hawaii for our 10 year Anniversary. We have two little ones, and I was feeling overwhelmed at the thought of narrowing down where to stay, and which excursions to do. I got in touch with Kathi, and that overwhelming feeling went away immediately. She did the research for me, sent me just a couple options to see what I liked better, and booked it from there. It was great just having a top two or three to choose from instead of the hundreds of options in Hawaii. Thank you Kathi! We'll be using you again. Can't wait to be sipping my mai tai at Duke's!

Amazing Honeymoon!
Reviewed By Val - Bakersfield, CA | Traveled to Cozumel ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Kathleen is amazing! She booked mine and my husbands honeymoon and we enjoyed every single second of it. I gave her our budget, dates of travel availability, and she provided great service. We took a 5 day Norwegian cruise from New Orleans-Cozumel, MX- Costa Maya, MX- back to New Orleans. It was such a relaxing and exciting trip. I was feeling extremely overwhelmed when it came to narrowing down/planning where we wanted to go and what would fit our budget on my own. Kathleen made it so easy for us. She also always responded to my e-mails and answered all of my questions thoroughly. I am so happy I found Kathleen and will be using LEG Travel for any other extensive vacation plans. We cannot thank you enough!

"...exceeded expectations "
As someone that owns a service oriented business, I rarely find an entity that meets the standards and expectations that I put on my own staff and team members; especially when it comes to being responsive and following through with prompt and proficient communications. Kathleen has both met and exceeded those expectations and I highly recommend her for any and all of your travel plans.
