Travel Agent Review
Reviewed By Annie - Grand Rapids, MI | Traveled to Caribbean
Allison has been absolutely wonderful to work with. We have a big group going on a cruise and she has really put in the time to make it a smooth process. She is a dream to have around if things go wrong... like a pandemic hits and all the cruises cancel 3 days before you are supposed to leave. She will sit on hold and go back and forth and do what it takes to get her clients what they want. She will keep you informed and is very responsive. Allison is a true professional and an expert at Disney and family travel but we are also using her for our grown-ups only Mexico vacation. We found her by accident, but we will be using her on all our vacations going forward. You should too.

Our best vacation yet!
Reviewed By Happy travelers - Holland, MI | Traveled to Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Allison was AMAZING! She was very quick to attend to our needs/wants and general questions, and believe me, there were plenty! Whether it was email or text, months prior to our trip and even while we were traveling she was there! Her professional tips and tricks allowed for us to get the most of our first family trip to Disney. She was even able to tailor ideas and suggestions to our children's ages and interests which was a HUGE help! I can't wait to book with her again!

Fun and Sun in California
Reviewed By Nicki - Holland, MI | Traveled to San Francisco ~ California ~ USA
Typically, I work with Allison for booking all my adventures to Walt Disney World. When I found myself traveling to Northern California for the first time, she was able to help me plan a wonderful, long weekend away. We did a delta travel package for two. She booked all our flights and hotel stays. What was great about the flights, she was able to book my connecting flight to the same airport my travel partner was flying out from. It was great that we could meet up and continue traveling together! Allison also had a rental car waiting for us when we arrived.
Not knowing the area, she booked us an amazing hotel stay in Monterey and it was within perfect driving distance of Big Sur, Pebble Beach and Carmel. The second half of our trip was in San Francisco. Again, she found an amazing hotel within walking distance of everything we wanted to do. We could walk to the Warf, our tour bus was right there and all the food was amazing!
I was so thankful to have her help!

Our experience was excellent! She was very thorough with helping us plan and didn’t shy away from late night phone calls to answer all of our questions after the kids finally were asleep! She has a lot of insight to navigating the parks with small children, and also available for us to ask questions while we are on the trip. She triple checks her knowledge if she is unsure of an answer, always providing us with the most current, accurate information.

Reviewed By Mandy Johnston - Portland, MI | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
Allison and I chatted about what we were hoping to achieve on our short trip and she took all of that info and ran with it. We’ve been to Disney World many times but this was one to remember from start to finish. We felt like we had our very own fairy godmother watching over us to make sure every detail was carried out with perfection! Even once we arrived Allison was still working on a hard-to-get dining reservation and she scored one at the last minute that truly was the icing on our perfect vacation. We absolutely will be working with Allison again on our next trip!
