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!

Very easy to work with and very communicative. Loved their recommendations and appreciated them letting me know which items to take off our list :). Make sure you ask them about the "The Black Book Kennebunkport" for all the hidden gems! Everything was thought of and planned without a hitch, even when we had flight delays or change of schedule. Thanks again for a busy but easy breezy family vacation!!!!

To say that Jen was nothing but exceptional in designing, planning and executing our Italy vacation…read morewould be an understatement. Jen carried our unique and luxury vacation from beginning to end, listening to what we wanted, providing guidance and suggestions on which two areas of Italy we wanted to focus on, and then handled all logistics in what was a very busy time of year for us and when we could not plan ourselves. Not only did she think about how we could maximize our time in between cities, but she curated our time with experiences that ranged from relaxation, cooking, and adventure, yet still somehow saved time for us to have the perfect amount of exploration on our own. Whenever we had questions, she always made time to be a thought partner, and then executed on our behalf, from helping us secure a rental car (and guiding us in road sign knowledge!), to finding a mixture of Michelin Star restaurants and neighborhood trattorias, to helping us plan out our trip so it made sense for us, without missing a minute but also saving room to relax and enjoy Italy more than we ever have before. Without Jen, we would not have had a once-in-a-lifetime trip like this one - this was luxury on a new level. Forever in debt to you Jen and your immaculate subject matter expertise on Italy and planning the beyond perfect trip! We will be back to plan more with you because you've already gotten us excited for the next vacation :).

She was very quick when responding, she contacted the hotel for us and the jacket was back home in San Francisco before we knew it! Thanks Joanna!

What a unique opportunity! As a very frequent traveler to New York for business, I have grown wary…read moreof the same hotels in the same neighborhood by my office. I crave some variety, and some way to break the monotony of a typical NY trip. 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!

Had high hopes for this place when putting feelers out for travel agents to help with a trip. They…read morehave been in business for a long time, and numerous locals used them back in the day, which led me to feel confident in them. However, I left feeling anything but confident after my meeting. First off, I must say that the staff are very nice. They are friendly and kind. They were never pushy or rude, which was nice. However, although this is great, I also came for a service. I had made an appointment, but it was apparent that they forgot about it when I arrived. They did not know who I was, nor did they recall where I was traveling to. They didn't even remember my name. Shortly after, they mistook me for someone else who was traveling somewhere else. Obviously, they were unprepared and had no information or materials ready for our meeting as a result. The only information about my destination I left with was that which I knew before I got there. The place is rather dated, so maybe they're behind on current methods. Who knows. The meeting, because of their lack of preparation, was largely speculation. They made some recommendations, some of which were questionable upon reviewing them and the experiences of other travelers. They also didn't meet the criteria I discussed that was important to me in accommodations. Went somewhere else and it is night and day different. 3 stars because they were truly kind.

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.
