This is a review long overdue. My family and I first used Laila's services in the summer of '18 for…read morea short trip to Maui. This would be our first trip together outside of hitting the open road and we were looking for someone to make sure it was done right. We struck gold coming across Laila and could not have asked for more. Our trip included a wide range of activities to include diving, zip-lining and a luau. Accommodations were carefully chosen to give our family the most comfortable stay we could have. Fast forward to the Fall of '22 and we were in planning for a 2 week European Vacation over Spring Break '23. Laila was extremely attentive and energetic throughout our planning and had so many great ideas that we had no doubt we would get the best experience possible. Honest discussions helped us to hone in on what tours and attractions would best suit our family and I think we nailed it. Her estimates were spot on and we were not caught off guard by any cost adjustments or fees. When the time to leave for our trip came close, we ran into some snags that started to wear down on us. Strikes and protests in areas we were set to travel began to cast doubt that our trip would be a success and then I was alerted by our airlines that our outgoing flight was canceled. Just days before departure! I immediately reached out to Laila and she responded rapidly at an hour I wouldn't expect anyone to be up reading emails. She was able to find out what caused our cancellation, confirm an alternate departure flight and prevent us from losing a few days on the trip we thought wouldn't be possible. During our trip, her service only grew better. She kept communications with us and was kind enough to make sure we arrived at our destinations on time. We were even welcomed by a lovely gift from Laila in our room that was honestly a highlight of our trip as it reaffirmed us that we had been well taken care of and our enjoyment was firsthand. We are a family of 4 in our mid 30's and I understand that not many people my age reach out to travel agents. I do not think I could have confidently created a trip this enjoyable and stress-free on my own while tending to my normal day-to-day. Laila has my highest recommendation and we will continue to use her services for future vacations. Thanks, Laila!

From the moment I reached out, she took the stress completely off my plate. She asked the right questions, understood exactly what we were looking for, and came back with options that were better than anything I could have found on my own. What sets Kathy apart is that she actually advocates for you. She knows the suppliers, knows the systems, and knows how to get things done when something doesn't go smoothly. Travel can be unpredictable -- but with Kathy handling the details, I never felt like I had to worry. Everything was organized, confirmed, and taken care of. If you're tired of spending hours researching trips only to feel uncertain about what you booked, call Kathy. She makes the whole process easy and genuinely enjoyable.

We recently planned a trip to Italy and had the pleasure of working with Kirsten. From the beginning, her communication was excellent, and she really went above and beyond. She gave us tons of suggestions on places to see, eat, and stay. She also gave us suggestions on which apps to use while we're there. And she even gave us her personal number in case we needed any assistance! All of the suggestions were on-point, and we had the most perfect trip! Not only was the trip itself well-planned and worry-free, but the cruise planner app also ensured that we had a smooth arrival, departure! We're definitely planning our next adventure with Kirsten

Traveling…read moreis usually a very stressful experience for me, as I want to be in control of situations but am in a foreign land with which I'm not familiar and therefore lose a lot of that control. This time I decided to put my trust in planners, and have never had a more relaxed and successful trip. Everything was planned for us, from the magnificent beach side hotel accommodations to the car rental to the daily waterfall, hiking and kayak excursions. You can tell that Joe and Kellie have been to the islands many times and are experts on what to see and where to go. Kellie was always available and easy to reach before and during my trip, in case I had any questions or needed guidance. Will definitely be using them for future travels!

She was the first travel agent either of us had engaged, thinking that they're just for the wealthy. Well we couldn't have been more incorrect!! Not only did she get us an unbeatable price for our trip, but she also upgraded us to a view room in a great location on the ship (below the main dining room and far from all the loud and obnoxious activities). Upon our return home, I noticed a few ads that were offering 'deep discounted deals' for the exact same trip we took, but they were still above what we paid and didn't offer as much on-board credits as Mary was able to procure for us. The process was seamless also, as she presented us with the best options for a few different itineraries, while providing us with personal insight on each regarding the pro's and con's. We really appreciated all of the time she spent with us, and all of the patience she displayed while we were weighing our options carefully. We couldn't have gone wrong either way, but we were especially picky because it was such a special occasion. And she took the headaches of all the scheduling, etc out of the equation so we could spend our time planning the fun stuff. In the end, we had the perfect trip, and we owe a lot of the credit to Mary for helping us choose and for getting us such an affordable price. Clients for life, for sure.
