What was suppose to be an exciting upcoming trip to Belize (which this office "specializes" in), my wife and I Googled travel agencies nearby to get more information. We're not experts, so we wanted to consult someone who does this all day. This company HAD great reviews, so why not? My first call to Sue Doyle was our first time brainstorming the trip. We wanted to visit several countries due to the close proximity and I requested more information on how to do it. When I got the quote, everything looked great until I started scrolling down and reading through Sue Doyle and her partner Sue Castillo's correspondence... OOPS! They belittled us for wanting to visit other locations and completely humiliated us over email. I returned her voicemail by asking her to review the same document as I was. "Okay. Stupid way to do it, but the client is always right, right?" **crickets** If this was in any way our fault, I wouldn't be wasting my time writing this review. This is how they perceive and treat their customers without their knowledge. I refuse to do business with a wolf in sheep's clothing. And for what seems to be a dying industry, this didn't do them any favors.

All of my best vacations were booked by Sue Doyle at Mill Ave Travel, now Your Travel Center. The…read morefirst trip was to Hawaii with my family and everything was perfect, Sue has a knack for picking hotels and booking tours. My children and I traveled to Rome and stayed in a hotel close to the Opera house that was perfect for me an two teenagers. One of the best things about booking with Sue is that if I ever have trouble while on a trip, she is there to help me. Expedia, other online booking sites and the airlines are nowhere to be found if you have a problem while on your trip. I had to get home quickly from Nairobi when I had problems with my business here in Phoenix, and Sue and her staff were able to get me back with out much extra cost and without the usual problems. I always know that I can count on her if a problem arises while on a trip. I would never book an overseas trip or any kind of vacation without Sue!

Working with Shana at the Pixie Planner has been incredible. I've planned trips on my own before,…read morebut she consistently finds better prices, better options, and takes care of all the details I don't have time for. From helpful tips and tricks to answering every question along the way, she makes the entire process stress-free. She also handled multiple changes to our reservation quickly and professionally, including securing dining reservations that are usually very hard to get. All I had to do was send an email and she handled the rest. Using a travel planner doesn't cost anything extra, and with Pixie Planner it actually saves money, time, and stress. The level of care and attention to detail is truly exceptional. I highly recommend Pixie Planner for any vacation planning!

I highly recommend her to anyone planning a Disney vacation or a trip to Hawaii. We will certainly use Shana for our future trips!!!

Breakfast was great, simple Peruvian breakfast but enough to get us going for our hike. The entire hike was about 3.5 hours (up and down the mountain). The hike is hard, there is no sugarcoating it. Daniel kept our group motivated and he would checkin with all of us as we were going up. Once we got to the top he made sure we were all accounted for, took some amazing photos for us and walked with us back down the mountain. Lunch was included (at the same place we had breakfast) included soup and a buffet. The food was great and the rainbow mountain was an experience I will never forget!

We're now just waiting for it to get credited back to our card. The peace of mind of our trip being taken care of by professionals is invaluable. I can't recommend enough going through a travel agency for big trips because you just never know what could happen. Ride the Wave is as good as they come and I'm looking forward to using their services again for our next big trip!

I had planned a big trip like this before but this time I decided I could really use the help. So, I scrolled Virtuoso and found a planner that was local to me -- Tracy! It was great working with Tracy. It was like working with a friend where we could bounce ideas off of each other and riff and really pull the dials between budget and adventure together. Speaking of, she was really accommodating to my families tight budget as well. I'm sure it wasn't easy! But overall, when we got on the trip, it was super seamless. Everything was planned out to the T. We had a pre-trip meeting and that really helped me and my fiance know ahead of time of what to expect and the trip was super easy for us and best part of all, was that my parents and aunties were super happy to have experienced Scotland together. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
