Kevin and Andy want you to visit the real people, the real thing, so they will take you to real places. The chosen hotels and restaurants are modest, family run businesses. Excursions and their guides are carefully selected to give you an insight into the country and what makes it tick. Kendi goes all out to pave the way so you can enjoy each moment. And, did I mention how reasonable their prices are? These trips are value packed! If you're used to high end hotels and lazing around a pool all day (There is some of that), this isn't it. The emphasis is on a small group adventure, yet both times I have felt so safe and cared for. Kendiworldadventures.com shows you exactly what you'll do. Just go! Make new friends and/or bring your old ones. Pura vida!

I am 72 years old. I just returned from a highlight of my life...KendiWorldAdventures in Costa…read moreRica! Andi and Kevin (the tour guides and world travelers) have thoroughly vetted this trip so that there are no surprises (except delightful ones!). Picture yourself walking among the thin mists of a rainforest at treetop level or...swaying rhythmically atop a gentle horse as you explore the flanks of a volcano...or having a small, delightful monkey on your shoulder eating banana from your hand. Just as great are the serendipitous moments (getting caught in the rain at an open air market, eating barbequed yucca for the first time, wading in the warm surf while iguanas lounge in beachside trees). I am sure the group I toured with must have been the best in the world (but I am also sure that any group that tours with Kevin and Andi will say the same). Perhaps, the best thing is that it is YOUR tour. It can be as "zip line" exciting or as "lounge by the pool" relaxing as you choose. As they say in Costa Rica, PURA VIDA, the good life !

What a bunch of literal criminals! The people here are the most psychologically constipated group…read moreof boomer curmudgeons I've ever met. Silver Star Travel, while I'm sure they'll send you on a great vacation, (who doesn't like going on vacation?) will absolutely refuse to share any detail about your experience before hand. I had a terrible experience with one Dawn Brandon. I thrive on details. I want to know what I'm spending my money on. When I receive an itinerary with nothing more than a grand total, I'm inclined to ask questions. I imagine most people would. Ask about a place? They'll send you an itinerary. When you ask about the itinerary, they send you another itinerary. When you ask very specific questions about what it is you're looking at in the itinerary, surprise! They'll send you another itinerary. I was fortunate enough to be paying enough attention, as we almost got sent to the wrong resort, for no other reason than the agent having poor reading comprehension and I suspect a bit of a problem reading and speaking in full sentences. Once we got the right resort in the itinerary, and then after four more attempts, the right room type in the itinerary (she didn't know what rooms the resort had, nor did she know anything about them, nor what the resort included, or the variation in price between the different rooms, something she could have researched in 15 minutes to help us find the right one - I had thought that's what travel agents do), we compared her exact trip to places like Expedia, Costco Travel, Hotwire, Tripadvisor, even just booking myself through the airline and through the resort itself. Every one of these places beat their price, and every one of them knew that the resort was actually going through construction at the moment, and that the room we had chosen would be within earshot of some construction noises. Something a trained travel agent shouldn't have had a problem with, unless they're just more interested in you biting onto the carrot they're dangling. They'll trick you into thinking that they've price checked. They haven't. They'll trick you by telling you things about the resort that are incorrect, or that don't exist. I probably shouldn't have compared her to a fast food worker unceremoniously shoveling french fries into a cardboard container. Sorry about that. I would have spent twice as much money if I'd have known what I was getting. The details are all I wanted. If you're a boomer, or moderately wealthy, or perhaps just only slightly ignorant, and willing to hand over a chunk of your money without actually knowing what you're spending it on, I'm sure you'll enjoy handing your money over to Silver Star. I'm sure they'll enjoy taking it too. After all, who doesn't like going on vacation? Who wants to wonder about what you could have actually had once the money trades hands? Happy to share the contents of my discourse with Dawn if anyone is interested. The story will speak for itself.

I do check for comparably-priced, similar quality places before using my points, but I've been able to use them for great deals in Hawaii, Sunriver, etc. I bought every other year points and that has worked out to be the correct amount for me to enjoy a week at one of the resorts. There are last minute deals too (both nights in the program and weeks at outside properties). Unlike some other points programs, this isn't a "right to use" program, it's shares in a trust that holds all the properties, so you don't get the same massive overselling happening. Yes, for some of the prime properties in the most popular weeks, you may want to book a year ahead to guarantee certain dates, but I've never had trouble finding a suitable property to book when I wanted to.

He followed us out and mumbled something we did not hear. He said he'll mail us our "gift". I told him he was being rude and from what I heard it sounded like "yeah, whatever." We will never return and we will tell our friends to never go as well.

I scoured every site: kayak, cheap flights, Expedia, Google flights and many more online resources to get the cheapest flight possible to Peru. After booking a flight on Travelocity I decided to shop around once again to see if I could get a lower price. I have never used a travel agent and decided to give it a go. I called Addie and told her where I was going and when. She called right back with a price $150 less than what I had paid. She also cut out something like 20 hours of travel time. I quickly cancelled my flight and went with Addie. The next morning I picked up the tickets. It was that easy. Addie has amazing energy. She's pure magic.

The woman behind the operation is Fanny, one of the nicest ladies ever and she has some mean connections in the travel industry. Friends and family have enjoyed many of her great travel deals to Asia. She tends to somehow magically pull out cheaper ticket fares without having to tack on any additional fees or bundle it with tour related stuff. When tickets to Hong Kong were showing as $900 online, she managed to come up with $750 round trip tickets. This also included her service charges, which seemed so unreal to me. The DVD and Video rentals selection could be better. Though I don't come here for the show rentals, but I know plenty who do. The one general complaint most of them had was she didn't carry enough classic stuff that preceded decades worth of TV. In the end, a small local rental store can only carry so much inventory, so don't expect much beyond that. Never hurts to call in ahead of time, though her Chinese (Cantonese) is a lot better than her English. When it comes to travel perks, it's more than likely she'll be able to work a little magic.
