We were most surprised with the Mango Cruise. We did not know that it was a boat just for us managed by four staff and the guide. It was magical. My favorite hotel was the Indochine Palace in Hue.

Sokros in Cambodia was outstanding also. Our every request was accommodated by the guides. Truly a memorable experience.

She is kind, efficient, knowledgeable and an outstanding advocate for her clients. My husband and I have benefited from her advocacy skills negotiating with the different cruise lines as others have mentioned. She knows the different cruise lines inside and out and is very good at matching clients needs to appropriate cruise companies. We have booked four cruises with Barb's astute guidance and have been extremely satisfied. We are currently working with her on a Hawaiian cruise coming up this year. I have recommended Barb in the past to our family and friends and will continue to recommend her for all cruise and related vacation needs. Keep up the great work, Barb!

We have booked two cruises with her and she has gone way above and beyond what most travel agents would ever consider doing. We had an issue with one of the cruise lines not honoring a previously agreed upon discount and she and her agents spent hours talking to various levels of people at the cruise line and finally was able to get them to honor their agreement. She kept us informed with the situation by near daily emails. Barb is so pleasant, responsible and a true advocate for her clients. She has booked trips for my extended family who live in Minnesota, for years and even though I live in California, I will absolutely continue to work with Barb for all future travel. She's just that great. I cannot recommend her strongly enough and if I could give 10 Stars, I certainly would.

Knowmad gets my highest recommendation from our initial phone conversation to having a Knowmad…read morespecialist see us off at the airport for our return trip home. We spent an unforgettable 10 days hiking the (express!) Inca trail to Machu Picchu and visiting Lima, The Sacred Valley, Aguas Calientes and Cusco. I could write 10 pages about how much we loved traveling with Knowmad so I'll try to stick to the highlights. My husband and I usually handle all of our own travel planning, but when we came across Knowmad while researching how to visit Machu Picchu we realized we would probably get a lot more out of a trip to Peru traveling with specialists from the country. This was 1000% true and working with Knowmad made planning our trip so easy and fun. Our travel specialists Renee and Shannon found a way for us to do everything we wanted to do (and so much more!) while staying within our budget. They were remarkably thorough with answering my countless questions and we could not have been more prepared for our visit, with very minimal effort on our end. Once we met up with our Knowmad guide, Fernando, in Cusco every day of our trip was amazing and we learned so much about the Inca culture and the Andes while having a ton of fun and going at our own pace. By the time we made it to Machu Picchu it was so much more meaningful because we had an understanding of what makes it such a special and mystical site. The Inca trail was absolutely breathtaking (and I'm not talking about the altitude ) and we couldn't have done it without Fernando as our fearless guide. He looked out for us every step of the way and made us feel like family throughout our time with him. Our trip wouldn't have been nearly so memorable without him. Another highlight was our e-bike ride through the Sacred Valley with our awesome guide Kirvi, who was so kind and on top of making sure we were safe and even getting some awesome photos and videos along the way. Our driver Abraham made us feel so welcome and kept us moving along and safe throughout our trip. The restaurants and hotels Knowmad arranged for us were excellent, and our picnic in the Sacred Valley and Pachamanca experience were unbelievable. Thank you Knowmad for making our trip such an incredible experience we will never forget!

When everyone else says it can't be done, TVP can do it! The weekend before our flights, we were…read moreblindsided by the requirement to have a tourist visa to visit Brazil. Frantic calls and 2 high-stress days only made it worse. Everything we read and researched showed a minimum 10-day processing time to get visas. We filled out the online visa application through the Brazil consulate website and started praying for a miracle! My wife found the Travel Visa Pro website, and I dismissed it as a scam. After researching TVP on the BBB web site, Yelp and other review sites, we contacted TVP and talked with several staff. Anna and Joya were very helpful, but I was still skeptical. We talked with Ruta, who specializes in Brazil visas at TVP and she reassured us that they work magic every day and could help us too. Long story short, our visa applications were in process and no longer just sitting on someone's desk at the Consulate, TVP wasn't able to pull them back and get it done for us. ...but... had we started with TVP, we would be visiting our Brazilian "family" today already. Sure, their service is not free, but you get what you pay for and TVP delivers. Anyone facing a short-notice or emergency visa need - contact Travel Visa Pros FIRST - before you start anything with the country you want to visit. They'll tell you straight, and do everything possible to make it happen. I sure wish I had listened to my wife right off the bat.
