Not only was Esther one of the most personable, understanding and patient people I've worked with, but her knowledge knows no bounds! Any/all questions will always be answered--no matter how silly they may seem--and Esther's attention to detail is astounding. There was even a situation halfway through our trip where we needed to pivot and leave one location earlier than expected and Esther was there for us, solving our problem almost immediately. She's a true lifesaver. I cannot thank her enough for helping make this trip come to fruition and crafting it to be a once in a lifetime experience! For all your leisure travel needs, CIRE is the ONLY way to go!

Thanks again for a busy but easy breezy family vacation!!!!

I'm actually shocked at VBH's level of service considering how affordable it is! Lauren helps with everything from booking flights, finding and booking excursions and booking dinner reservations.

I highly recommend using VBH Travel!

From day one, I sent Gina a long list of destinations I hoped to experience before ending with the perfect honeymoon in the Maldives. What seemed like a logistical challenge--eight flights, countless connections, multiple countries, and even coordinating with a wedding planner in the Maldives--she handled effortlessly and flawlessly. Not only did she make it happen, but she made it seamless. From Thailand--Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Phuket--to Singapore and finally the Maldives, every resort was a stunning five-star experience with impeccable service and concierge teams that went above and beyond for us. The excursions were truly unforgettable, especially the Phi Phi Island boat excursion, which was absolutely out of this world. Each destination had its own magic, and the attention to detail was unmatched. From chocolate-covered strawberries and handwritten notes to balloons, flowers, beautiful beach bags, hats, and personalized messages displayed on the bed--every welcome felt thoughtful, romantic, and perfectly curated. I wouldn't expect anything less from Gina, as this is the second incredible trip she has planned for us. She consistently exceeds expectations and brings dreams to life. If you want an unforgettable trip planned with care, precision, and heart, G World is the one to make it happen.

When I walked in around noon on a weekday, there were 4 travel agents all available and the one I worked with is David. I applied for a 10 year multiple entry visa for my daughter and was required to provide the following documents: + Passports (hers, mine, my husband's) + Birth certificate (just hers) + ID (my driver's license) + ID from a relative in China (the agency will provide the required letter) The price was $185 for the 10 year visa and $115 travel agency fee = $300 total. It helped to speak Chinese though the travel agent was able to print me a form in English and helped me with any questions I had while filling it out. Turnaround time is expected to be about a week and you go pick up the passport in person. (I believe getting it mailed is an option for +$50 if I understood correctly.)

As a young kid fresh out of college traveling abroad to various locations in the South of France and the Italian Riviera on my own Amex Travel agents were very caring and helpful giving advise as I met my European friends whilst vacationing.

My friends even mentioned how much more I knew than they did at the time. Good use of the French language helped too of course. Today, we have more advise at a click on our smartphones and laptops. American Express Travel holds a special place in my travel memories. Bon voyage mes amis!

Enter Seven Hills Travel I was introduced to Seven Hills through a good friend who used them successfully for personal travel, and they did not disappoint. I've gone from boring businessman schlepping to NY every other week, to somewhat of a local, staying in a great Upper West Side apartment! They set me up in a warm and inviting apartment in the middle of an amazing neighborhood. No more boring hotels with the same ole restaurants...now I have the full local scene available to me when I travel. All of that for less than a NY hotel. Knowing what they can do for vacation travelers, and experiencing their service for business, this is an easy 5 star rating for me! Thanks, Seven Hills!

My husband and I have traveled through most of the United States and Asia, a bit of Europe, and…read moremany other places. Traveling is our love and addiction. We often put together trips ourselves, but for Australia/New Zealand we needed an expert in the area to help us. We started by first looking at some tour companies. (My cousins used one to go to the same destination.) But none had some of the things we wanted, and I needed a few accommodations. I found three firms online that specialized in this area and that drew my interest. I emailed asking for quotes. Two called and I spoke to the agents, outlining my requests. The Aspire agent responded to a query from my husband on Zicasso. And I let her know (via email and then on the phone) what we needed. She listened to me and provided a quote with items and times that I had requested at a reasonable price. So she was our top pick, and we began to work together to cull the best items for the trip. We never paid a fee until we were ready to book the tour. I worked with Sharon T. And she was amazing. We got the cities we wanted, in the order we wanted, and with a few special accommodations. (For example: With a recent knee surgery, I couldn't climb the 300 steps at the Sydney Opera House, so she booked us an accessible tour. I sometimes have tummy trouble early in the mornings, so mostly I wanted tours that started at 10 am or later. I did have to give in to early times in a few instances, because they were not avoidable. I even had a specific order to the cities we visited, because I wanted to end the trip in Auckland, New Zealand, where we planned to meet with a friend we hadn't seen in more than 30 years.) Suffice it to say that Sharon and I exchanged tons [hundreds? :-)] of emails from May through the end of the trip in October. I even emailed her at least three or four times while on the 19-day trip, and I always got an immediate response (if the timing was right with the 15-17 hour difference). As a former assistant travel editor for a major daily newspaper, I may be more particular than most people and harder to please. Aspire (Sharon) was patient, detailed, and offered stellar service. P.S. The VAMOOS app was incredible. It provided every detail at our fingertips for the entire trip, along with reminders.

Based on our preferences and budget, Sami was able to pull together an amazing package that let us explore both Maui and Kaua'i for a total of 9 days. The hotels completely surpassed our expectations and even threw in a few "honeymoon perks" all thanks to Sami. We had scheduled a few activities such as snorkeling and luaus - when we had a question about where to meet for one of the activities, Sami got back to us within seconds and continued to be there for the duration of the honeymoon. We 100% suggest reaching out to Sami when planning your next venture - whether it be a honeymoon or extensive stay elsewhere!

One thing I did not realize that travel agents are open encyclopedia of knowledge. Location I chose was fine, but it appears that hotel I researched was not as good as travel sites made it appear. Per owner's recommendation, I took another property nearby. It was much easier to access the beach, resort was newer, cleaner, and had better pool. I have to say I loved personal touch that Vacation Spirit, and their owner offers. My job planning future vacations just got much easier.
