Since…read morethen, they are under new ownership and I had fingers crossed that they would be just as good and they are! Barbara Beam helped to plan an important "Girl's Trip" for me and my friends to the Dominican Republic. We had such a wonderful and memorable time there! It took a long time to plan as we were quite indecisive at first. Barbara was patient and there for us every step of the way to make recommendations. She listened and asked questions to help narrow down exactly what we did (and did not) want. She nailed it! The entire trip (and planning) was seamless with her help. Throughout the planning, we never felt rushed and had all questions answered even up until the week we were leaving. We didn't have to really "think" too much on this holiday. All documents were given to us ahead of time, transportation was booked, and we felt very comfortable that we would be able to reach her during our trip at any point if needed. I will absolutely book trips with Barbara at Travel Experts of Cary again. Can't wait!

I recently purchased an AAA membership, but unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing…read more Since I had only recently joined, I was unable to request towing services through the online portal and therefore had to call customer service for assistance. However, my calls were repeatedly routed back to the automated system, making it difficult for me to reach a live representative. When I finally connected with a customer service representative and explained that I wished to cancel my membership, the call was immediately disconnected just moments after I made the request. I cannot say for certain whether the call was intentionally hung up or simply dropped accidentally, but the entire experience was certainly frustrating. Upon calling again, I was informed that while I could cancel my membership, I would not be eligible for a refund--despite the fact that my membership had been active for only three days and I had never utilized any AAA services. I am extremely disappointed with my overall customer service experience. I understand that companies have established cancellation and refund policies, but as a new member, I had expected to receive a higher level of attentive support. As it stands now, I do not foresee myself using AAA services again in the future.

We had a great experience with Viking Travel for a 2-week-long European vacation this past July. I…read moreworked with Avery on details for a few months, and he was able to get us flights and hotels on either end of our travel for cheaper than I could find flights alone. Not only that, but the flights were ideal (great travel times, minimal layovers), and the hotels in Milan and Paris were so great-- especially for a family of 4! Our hotel in Paris had 2 separate bedrooms (a third if you count the living room, which had its own door), as well as a full kitchen (microwave, stove, plates/silverware, refrigerator, etc.). And none of the hotels were super touristy or packed-- we felt like we had found some hidden gems. Throughout planning and during our travel, Viking Travel was available to us by phone or email, and they were always quick to respond. They helped with COVID preparation, which was a big concern of ours going into Europe. I have to admit I had concerns with using a travel agent in this day and age, but it was worth it for sure. I'm not sure if it's like this for all packages, but we didn't pay Viking anything extra, there were no out-of-pocket costs to use them, we just paid for the flights/hotels and that was it. I can't recommend Viking Travel enough. We're already planning our next trip through them for next year :)

She stuck to our budget and helped us pick the best Sandals resort for our style, since there are so many to choose from. She made sure that we had all the travel documents we needed, kept us up to date on Covid entry requirements, and she sent us a travel tips sheet that spelled out exactly what to expect when traveling to a sandals resort. On our return trip, we had a flight get cancelled on a Sunday at 7pm, so I called the Alpha World Travel office number to get some help in getting a flight rebooked. Lynn was the one who helped us out of this pinch, and she went above and beyond, she got us in contact with an airline booking agent in minutes, and she had a rental car booked for us when we landed in Charlotte and had to drive back to Raleigh. I would highly recommend Alpha World Travel and I will definitely be using them again in the future!

Shari is absolutely WONDERFUL!! We were not planning on using a travel agent for our cruise and just booking directly with the cruise line. At the last minute before we paid for the cruise we decided to just get some information from a travel agent and see if we would like to go that route. Looking back, I am so thankful we chose Shari to work with us. Unfortunately the ship we were booked on caught on fire and our cruise was cancelled. Shari worked many long hours just for our family to get us booked on another cruise because we had a very limited time frame that we would even be able to take a vacation this year. Shari worked her magic like a pro and got us on an even better ship for a very minimal increase in price. She also ended up saving us more money in the end that we didn't expect. I could have NEVER done this without her! We are so thankful that we found Shari and we will use her for all our future family vacations.
