I recently went on my first cruise trip, with flights, hotels, rental cars, and fine dining organized by her. I was so impressed by her careful planning, and attention to detail as well as consistently checking in on me to ensure I had a good time and was comfortable. From now on, I'm going to her and her alone for all my travel needs. I can't wait to plan my future plans and bucket list countries through her. I suggest you do the same... I highly recommend her to organize your travel!

I'm happy that others had 5-star experiences here. Mine was definitely a "shudder and run" lesson…read morelearned. VERY important anniversary - big plans for a European river cruise led us to decide to seek help from a professional rather than booking it ourselves online. Our consultant gave us some brochures and asked other consultants to lend expertise on the trip we were interested in. We left the appointment with a 72-hour window to complete the reservation AND for the consultant to provide the "how to" move forward. On the third day, I made contact to see how we could move forward before the deadline passed and the reservation would be lost. The consultant, having forgotten about where we were in the story, failed to provide what was needed ---- the reservation was lost. The promise was an attempt at a do-over once 24 more hours had passed. Rather than risk another blown opportunity, I called the vendor myself --- and booked the same dates/cabin/destination as a new reservation. Anniversary saved - go ME. The next day, received an ALL CAPS email from the consultant: "IF YOU DO DEPOSIT TODAY I CAN REBOOK. NEED TO KNOW." Needless to say, I won't be a repeat customer of this business.

We just completed our second trip arranged by Carla at the Travel Place. Our first trip last year…read morewas to Costa Rica. Carla created a wonderful experience and arranged for us to stay at resorts she had been to herself. All three that we were at were fantastic and everything, including transportation was fantastic. Our most recent trip to Spain was also perfect. Carla arranged every detail so all we needed to do was enjoy a totally stress free vacation. We will be working with Carla in the coming months to arrange our next trip. She is easy going, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Five stars to Carla and the Travel Place! John and Andrea P.

She listened to my many wants and desires and was able to translate those into a trip of a lifetime. I never would have been able to plan this trip on my own. Her choice of hotels as well as private tours were both comprehensive and special - it was difficult to chose which we wanted to do. She worked tirelessly to help make our desire of using public transportation come to fruition and ensured there was always transport available when we arrived to take us to our hotels. On top of all of this, she was very mindful of our budget and provided exceptional advice on where to save and where to splurge. I can't recommend Justine enough - we're already planning our next trip with Amaya Travel!

My family and I had a phenomenal experience with Ellis-Lopez Travel. On the day of pickup Ellis…read morearrived earlier than his scheduled time, which was great because international travel can be stressful especially when you're wondering if you'll make it to the airport on time. In addition, the vehicle was spotless and he somehow managed to fit all 8 of our suitcases including a bulky Graco stroller in the car very neatly. Ellis was extremely professional and very pleasant. When he picked us up from the airport after our trip he even went the extra mile to ask if we wanted to stop for some food before dropping us off at home because he knew how tired we were. We will absolutely use him again and continue to recommend him to our family and friends.

I was one of those people who didn't see the point of using a travel agent. Everything I need to…read moreknow, and every price that could possibly exist, can be found online. In 2014, why did I need some middleman to book things for me, when I can control it all myself? Plus, not to toot my own horn, but I am very good at researching things online, and I am known for my organizational skills. I was asked to organize a cruise trip for my husband's frequent-cruising family, and quickly realized that planning travel with a large group -- with all the various personalities and individual "needs" (i.e. drama) is more trouble that one would imagine. So I decided to consider using an agent. I reached out to a few agents from well-ranked agencies, and wasn't terribly impressed, or convinced that they would even do as good a job as I could do myself. Then I talked to Jeremy from Cruise Vacations, Int. He's very friendly and has all those customer service skills you would expect from someone who makes their living in sales, but that's not what convinced me to work with him. It was very clear to me, from the very beginning, that HE KNEW HIS SH*T. I even asked him a few "test" questions to make sure he knew what he was talking about -- he was very impressive. HIs profile on the Virtuoso site says he's a second-generation travel agent. That probably explains a lot. Jeremy has handled every curve ball the family has thrown at him -- and there have been plenty -- like a pro. As the group leader, he keeps my informed about everything, which I like (i.e. I am a control freak). In fact, one of the older members of the family contacted me to say Jeremy was the best travel agent they had ever worked with. But the thing that I've been most impressed by -- and indeed, the thing that has convinced me of the value of travel agents for even individual travel -- is that Jeremy has, on two occasions, gone to bat for me with the Cruise Line. The cruise line made two distinct errors on my personal reservation - one in which they were charging me too much taxes, and the other in which they weren't giving me a discount to which I was entitled. Jeremy fought with them -- for several hours over the course of several days -- to get these things fixed. In the case of the taxes, it was only a $3 difference, but Jeremy knew that it was really, REALLY bothering me, so he didn't rest until it was fixed. I would have neither the time, nor the clout, to go up against the cruise line on my own. I'd probably just be out of luck had I booked on my own. But having a GOOD agent, like Jeremy, who is willing to do what it takes to make sure that his clients are happy, made all the difference. I don't often do 5 star reviews, but I highly recommend Jeremy Hall at Cruise Vacations, International.
