I can't say enough about John. One of my wife's co-workers referred us to John after John planned…read morehis trip to Italy. We had already planned 2 cruises for Italy and Greece. John worked on our airfare, hotels in Athens and Rome as well as tours in Athens and Rome and Italy transportation. The hotels in Athens were both fairly small "boutique" hotels. The pre-cruise hotel had stunning water views from our room and the 3rd floor restaurant. The tween cruises hotel in Athens had a rooftop restaurant that overlooked the Acropolis. The staff at both hotels were incredibly accommodating for all our needs. Heading to Rome for 4 nights pre-cruise John set us up with private transportation to the hotel and to the cruise port. Perfect. The Mascagni - wow - it didn't hurt that the hotel upgraded our room. Again. Wow. Such wonderful staff. As an aside - John confirmed each and every hotel, tour, car and flight with the companies the day before we got there. And that ends all of John's plans for us....or it should have. The last 2 nights after the Italy cruise we relied on my brother-in-law to book an Air B & B for the 6 of us. BTW - welcome to Venice - the city with no cars and the canal bridges all have stairs. So they booked a 3 story walkup. So...who comes through and finds us a porter and private water taxi for our 9am flight by talking to the Air B & B owner (in Italian) and making the arrangements that saved our butts? No it wasn't Superman. It was John C. John - from the bottom of my heart - thank you for the memories.

I was disappointed with American Classic Tours. The tour…read moreadvertisement didn't comport with the actual experience. Needless to say it was less. The airline used, turned out to be a discount carrier, not a legacy carrier as promised. The tour guide was not congenial towards customers and not willing to do extra for passenger enjoyment.

I was very disappointed in the travel show. It's an event I've planned to go to for many years, and…read morehave actually purchased tickets for at least once, but haven't been able attend. This year a friend and I went with the little ones in tow and it was incredibly underwhelming. Upon entrance we were given a ticket and because we're newbies we did a stupid thing and went to the booth, where the guy tried a hard sell to get us to sign up for a weekend at one of their properties. As we walked around to the other booths, it was little more than picking up travel brochures from a bunch of booths. There was a section that had several folks selling cruises, which we skipped altogether. There were a surprising number of Native American nations represented, which was pretty cool. But besides Croatia (a major sponsor) and maybe Ireland (I think--we passed a booth that I think was Ireland) there were no European countries here. Alaska had a booth, as well as maybe one Arizonan community and a Montana booth, and beyond those there was no one west of Oklahoma. There were a lot of midwestern and southern towns. A smattering of Asian and African countries, plus one or two from South America. Some speakers were presenting throughout the day. There were a couple of giveaways, one to the Apostle Islands that I actually entered because I've long wanted to visit (not a winner though). But we left with a lot of stickers for the babes, so if that is a sign of success then I guess it was a good day. One thing that surprised me was that the speakers are pretty accessible. I thought that some of the more prominent ones would be in separate rooms that required you to wait in line for an hour before the doors opened to get a seat, but that wasn't the case. So Andrew McCarthy and Rick Steves would practically be up close and personal. Might I go again? Well, if my friend wanted to then yeah, I might. It's better than sitting at home and it's something to do if the kids are willing. But don't go expecting to find a large swath of places throughout the world to help plan your next vacation.

Can I tell you something..?…read more I love Nitti travel. My family has been using them for years and has always been satisfied but today takes the cake. My good friend called me from New York where she was stuck trying to get on a flight to Chicago. After my failed attempts at finding a flight on-line I called Adriana at Nitti...they are open by 9:30 on Saturdays! Within, literally, a minute, she had my friend booked on a flight with an actual seat that would arrive by the time she needed to be in town...and for less than 1/2 the price of all the flights I could find! And it was a direct flight!!! I said, "Surely, you can't be serious!" and she said, "I AM serious...and don't call me Shirley..." Come on! A litlle Airplane! joke never killed anyone...

While there are all kinds of websites & apps to use, having a great travel agent is worth its weight in gold! All is fine on a trip until trouble appears. With a travel agent, you have a REAL LIVE PERSON to call if you run into a snag! A great travel agent like Vicky knows all the tricks and shortcuts that can really bump your trip up to the next level. Having her expertise at the tip of your fingers can provide solutions to problems. Covid restrictions change frequently. She's up to date on the requirements, not just for where you're starting your trip, but also for your trip's destination! What if someone in your party falls ill? What if you miss a connecting flight? THOSE are situations when a seasoned travel agent like Vicky can come to your rescue. Vacations can take many twists & turns. It's the situations that you CAN'T predict, that Vicky can assist with. For example, in 2012, I took my 78 year old mother-in-law to Puerto Rico. The first 3 days were great but unfortunately mom came down with a stomach issue requiring hospitalization. Luckily, Vicky was by our side (via phone) every step of the way! She rebooked our return flight which had to be delayed until mom was better. What was a language barrier for me (as I only speak English) was no problem for Vicky who is multi-lingual. She's a godsend. She's been our treasured travel agent for over 30 years! She goes out of her way to make sure everything goes smoothly before, during and after your trip. She's the BEST! Thank you Vicky for all the years of great trips that you've booked for us! We look forward to many more!
