Since I'd never…read morebeen, I thought it was wise to engage professional assistance with the planning air & ground travel, lodging, & activities, as well as selecting appropriate insurances. She worked closely with me to find activities that were both interesting & fun, while staying within my budget. I think most agents would have encouraged me to take a cruise but I much prefer to spend my time experiencing the culture & the people, doing walking tours, kayaking, & spending time exploring. Gretchen really listened & built an amazing trip!! Although it's taken me quite a while to write this review, I think she deserves the highest recommendation for her tireless efforts to provide a smooth travel experience. She was happy to answer any questions & even provided me a detailed printed & electronic itinerary. Since I was traveling alone, I relied completely upon her expertise. I highly recommend her services!!

Gretchan worked with us for months planning flights, seats, hotels, location, tours, eurostar train tickets. Our trip was US to Germany to London and home. Gretchen made us an itinerary printed everything had it all in order with the exact airline seats, class of tickets/seats and followed any airline changes. She collected all the tickets for tours and any tickets we needed printed them and mailed them in a packet to us. She followed our trip via email to make sure we had everything, and things were going as planned. She made sure we had travel insurance and a checklist of everything we needed to take care of for international travel. She is very well educated and prepared. She truly cared that our trip was exactly as we imagined and dreamed of. I would recommend her to, not just anyone, but everyone! I am not a friend or family member. This review is from a real customer. I have already begun to plan a cruise for next year with her.

I booked a cruise with Dream Vacations in Summer of 2017 for an August 2018 itinerary. I picked the…read morecompany because I was aquatinted with owner Cory. I am an experienced cruiser with eight under my belt and have both used agents and booked on my own. I compare prices and typically find agents can be worth their fee for the value offered. Not all agents bring the same value, so I was thrilled to work with Cory and his wife and give them a try. From the very beginning of researching different cruise lines and itineraries Dream Vacations was on top of it. Typical communication was through email, but I also spoke with owner Cory as well. The research on itineraries, cruise lines and pricing is where a savvy agent makes the difference. The entire process was made easy and Cory also researched transportation options to the port. Prior to departing we received four industrial strength luggage tags with printed off info included that made it hassle free. Pro tip is pack light, one suit case max per passenger. Also in the packet was necessary documentation to board, called boarding documents. If 18 & over plan on obtaining a passport months in advance. Children under 16 may not be necessary, but original birth certificates required. I would recommended passports for traveling 8 and over with a 10 year expiration date. Our family had a great week in the Caribbean on Princess and recommend the line as a great middle to upper line option when cruising. Dream Vacations reviewed all lines and cabin options that fit our budget and they nailed it too! First time cruisers must understand it's necessary to build into the budget transportation, staff tipping excursions and souvenirs. All told the extras do add up, so be prepared. Our chocolate covered strawberries complimentary of Cory was a nice touch during the week. I found it necessary to reach out to Dream Vacations during the trip to receive documentation. It was swiftly handled within an hour. If you are considering a cruise then give Dream Vacations a shot at planning your adventure at sea. I recommend them and have confidence your experience will be as stellar as mine.

I think the travelling circus that my wedding and honeymoon became may have planted the "We can do this better" seed in their minds. And they do it far better than the all online, nothing worked as planned wedding/honeymoon I did back then. I had been leery of going on cruises, because after numerous 7-11 month long trips on Navy boats, and a couple years working offshore oil, the last thing on earth I wanted to do was get on another bleepin boat. Abby wanted to go on a cruise. She hates flying. I finally said OK, we'll try this. But then, work, reserves, job change, reserves, laid off, new job cross country moves (TWICE!) sick parents, hurricane damage to parent's house, etc basically kept happening. That said, Cory knew I needed to go on a vacation, since I hadn't had a non working vacation in five years and that my wife wanted to go swim with dolphins, and go on a cruise. We were talking about me going to Florida to go fix things at my parents house (working vacation strikes again) and basically planning things around my wife's work schedule. Cory said he knows of a cruise that would said out of Port Canaveral in Florida, I was already going to be there having driven down to work on my parents house, and would work time wise with Abby's job and meetings she had to be back for. About two hours later I get an email from Cory as I'm watching the football game and the price was far better than anything I could get on my own. So the next day I go over to Cory's office (this can be done online or on the phone, but it's about a block away so I just went over) and then we go through everything, plus as someone who has cruised a lot, he had lots of "pro tips" that made the cruise even better. I may have drunk texted him going "BOOK IT" but he waited until I wasn't a six pack of IPA into the Patriots game to make sure. People may ask "why do you use/pay a travel agent, the internet lets you do it yourself, etc" News flash. You are paying a travel agent even if you use Orbitz, company's website, anywhere. You just don't see/talk to them. They also don't tell you things like "do the dolphins in Freeport, it's cheaper, and there are things other than Dolphins you probably want to do in Nassau" I also didn't guess about what was a good cabin, should I get X Y or Z, whatever. Cory handled all that, and explained it all. And saved me a boat load of money over what I would have spent booking it myself. All the work I did was basically looking over the basics, and giving Cory my payment. That was it. I left his office with boarding passes, bag tags, everything I needed. Once we got on vacation, the cruise line had to change the itinerary due to a bad storm. Cory tracked that, updated my Dolphin shore excursion, and sent me the information. I didn't have to call anyone or do anything. I literally got a text/fb/email all pop on my phone going "Dolphins are now 10:30 on the new day in Freeport, it's all handled" And Abby got to swim with the Dolphins. We're going on a cruise again, the only question is where. We will be using Chicks Beach Travel for all our travel needs. They do more than cruises.

And even if this wasn't my first time I expected to be educated and made to feel like things were taken care of. There was a miscommunication regarding flights. When I presented questions and concerns the representative named Jenn was extremely rude and seemed to take my concerns as a personal attack. When I explained that there must have been a miscommunication and requested she educate me on the process she told me that there was no miscommunication and that I was the one at fault. After multiple back and forth communications and the rude nature of her responses, I did not feel confident in trusting my travel goals to Jenn based on her emotional responses. I asked to work with another member of her team, however my request was not honored. Her professionalism was deficient and it seemed she did not care. I am not sure what was wrong with Jenn but this whole experience was baffling and I am still confused. The level of customer service I received was non existent. I would not place my trust in this agency.

We have both traveled all over the planet and this was our first trip using a travel company. Lets just say, Adios Adventure Travel has been absolutely amazing. When we decided to plan this trip, we did a Google search for Manchu Picchu. We came across Adios Adventure Travel. I sent an email with the information about what we were looking for, and BOOM Jacquie responded right away with tons of information. She was amazing through the decision process. She answered every question we had, was super punctual in responding, and helped us to get to the point of booking with such ease! When we called to actually book, Jacquie was so much fun to talk with. We talked on the phone for almost 2 hours discussing this trip. She recommended places to go, things we were interested in, made sure to let the travel guides know the details for those things we were interested in, and so much more. If I can travel anywhere, it has to be a place where I have a "Jacquie" available for questions, answers, and great information. Once we got to Cusco, we met with our guide Victor. He took care of us the entire trip... and when I mean taken care of us, he made sure we knew where we were going, what times to be where, and stepped us through everything everyday. Each place we visited Victor was so knowledgeable about the site, city, people, and the history. He was so extremely polite, giving, and funny! He told us many of his personal stories, especially the ones that were connected to the places we visited. Victor was also patient about our time, especially at different locations, allowing us to see the different sites but to also give us time to look and experience for ourselves. We told Victor in the beginning of our trip, things we were interested in seeing and experiencing... he adjusted our schedule to fit those things in and even took us to amazing restaurants for some very authentic Peruvian food. We were both blown away at the professionalism that everyone at Adios Adventure Travel had. I recommend anyone who is wanting to travel to Peru, Chile, Ecuador, or Bolivia, to contact Adios Adventure Travel and see what they have to offer... they will make your trip amazing and so much easier!

If you are ever considering going to Peru & hiking Machu Picchu, definitely go through Adios Travel Adventure. Both co-owners Jacquie & Vidal were wonderful to work with (and Heather as well)! We did a 5 day hike and at times is was very challenging but completely worth it. There was an issue with our initial itinerary that we picked, but Jacquie & Vidal did everything they could and made it right. It all worked out for the best, and we can't say enough good things about working with them. I contacted Jacquie many months before our trip and from start to finish, it was a breeze to work with her. She always responded in a timely manner to all of my questions (and I had a TON of questions)! Lol. It made planning the trip fun & stress free!
