From the first meeting, Lorna was honest, presented many options, and worked hard to check all available prices. Even after we left the office, she sent along a lot of information so we could make our best choice. She ended up booking flights and the resort under budget, and we were incredibly happy with our trip. When we met with her to go over final plans and pick up our travel documents, she gave us a bottle of champagne and a card to congratulate us on our wedding... now that's customer service! This is our first time using a travel agent, because we feel like we can handle it on our own, but we really enjoyed working with Lorna and will return.

About 8 years ago, I wanted to take a cruise. I had never been on one and had no clue where to…read morestart so I headed to the nearest travel agency right around the corner. Little did I know that I had stumbled upon one of the best travel agencies I have ever used. Seriously. My first cruise was fabulous thanks to Linda. It was so great, I took an impromptu (we are talking I woke up and said "hey I wanna cruise right now) last minute decision. Not only did she book me on a wonderful 5 day getaway to Bermuda, but the upgrades and requests and travel time was brilliantly done. I literally just lacked my bags and went. I used her to book a vacation to Riviera Maya in Mexico. The absolute most beautiful vacation I have been on. Everything is seemless when I deal directly with Linda. I tell her what I want, where I want to go, how long and how much. She takes care of the rest. The only thing I have to worry about is getting to the airport to catch a flight. I have heard horror stories from some people about travel agencies and I am shocked. I didn't realize how lucky I was until I had heard about vacation nightmares that could have easily been prevented. I always recommend Linda. I have sent multiple people to her and they are also amazed. She is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and has first class taste. Wouldn't ever go anywhere else! As a side, she has been working tirelessly on an upcoming vacation my boyfriend and I want to take. We provided a list of 4 places we wanted to go and she has emailed me multiple choices for each location. I receive emails at 8am and emails at 9 at night. She doesn't slow down, always thinking and always trying to make her clients happy. Truly a gem of a business!

We asked her to look at different cruises and unfortunately were not able to go with our originally booked plan. She took care of changing the cruise.

We've used her to help plan 4 vacations and will continue to do so.

We can't say enough about our satisfaction with Pioneer Valley Travel and especially Allison. We will most certainly be planning our next trip with her again! Thanks Allison!!!

I have usually gone to Alex close to the time we desired to leave for vacation.

Once the schedule is in place, he worked closely with us to point out and then help book the best ways to get the most out of our schedule.

We knew we wanted to go to the Dominican Republic where both our families are from but didn't know how. I reached out to Empire travel and spoke with Joan! It was hard for me to pick a day and time to meet face to face because of work for me so Joan suggested we do it all via phone and email. I told her what I wanted and what we were looking for and in a very short period of time she provided me with some affordable options! Needless to say we had an amazing time in the DR and I also got the chance to see my great grandmother. I like to think that Empire Travel had something to do with the fact that I had the chance to see her for maybe the last time AND gave me the chance to have a wonderfully relaxed honeymoon with my now husband! I definitely recommend this agency to everyone and will most definitely use them in the future! :-)

We just returned from a family vacation to Walt Disney World. I greatly appreciated working with…read moreDiane at Escapes For Everyone! We heard about her from a local community FB message board. Diane shared her Disney knowledge with us and made valuable recommendations. The biggest thing that Diane did for us was get our dining reservations and thanks to her we scored many "hard to get" venues during one of the busiest travel weeks expected at Disney (it became a record attendance week). She saved me from the pressure of navigating Disney dining reservation logistics 60 days before our trip (would have been stressful for me). This included Space 220 at Epcot, which was probably one of the top memorable dining experiences and atmospheres I've ever had. She answered many questions we had all the way to the very end, and even during the trip. I know many people are reluctant to use travel agents because they are unsure how it works and are afraid they won't get access to discounts or even worse will spend more money using a travel agent. So many people think "oh I can just research this by myself" because all of the information is so much more accessible on the internet nowadays. While it is true that there are some people who can indeed plan many cost effective vacations all by themselves, it is not true that using an agent will make things more expensive. I paid no "extra fee" to use Diane. You can look up on your own how travel agents get paid or talk to Diane yourself. It is also okay to admit that there are some vacations where you can indeed benefit from an expert, and I believe Disney is one of those vacations. If you are limited in time, or feel you already have a busy life, please consider saving yourself valuable hours filtering information about a Disney vacation completely on your own. If you consider your time as valuable as money, then it is absolutely worth it to use Diane. Relieve pressure on yourself to plan the "perfect vacation" and save the mental drain of reading every blog and internet article out there until you fall asleep at night after a long day --- just make the step and call Diane! We were very happy with Diane's support during our trip. She has my strongest recommendation for planning Disney vacations.

If you want the most comprehensively curated travel experience, I highly recommend contacting Lena…read moreBrown of Largay Travel. In my thirty plus years of traveling, both for domestic corporate travel and international personal travel, I have never worked with a more qualified travel expert than Lena Brown. She is phenomenal! Lena is extremely collaborative, responsive and informative throughout the whole process of travel planning which began a year before the actual two-week trip to Portugal. She created an itinerary where every single detail was covered. From the airport pickups & car service, train rides and short flights to personal guides for castle tours, unique winery tours, and even a memorable hike to the scenic south of Portugal in the Algarve region, Lena did it all. We traveled throughout Lisbon, Porto, Lagos and everywhere in between on trains, planes, Sprinter Vans and town cars. We saw cliffs, caves (both in mountains and in wineries), Fado singers, castles and vineyards. She planned restaurant reservations at some of the best restaurants in all of Portugal and housed us in the best hotels in the country all in the heart of the cities and villages. Our group consisted of three couples with distinct preferences and opinions. She is highly collaborative and able to meet the needs of our group and provide insights and recommendations beyond what we dreamed of ourselves. Lena kept us informed throughout the whole planning process. Despite being in a different time zone, Lena was available at a moment's notice and never wavered in her dedication and commitment to our group of six being happy and informed. Lena didn't let a Florida hurricane stop her. The Sarasota airport was closed due roof damage post hurricane and our United flight was canceled. Lena waived her "magic wand" and got the final flight home changed to the nearby airport of Tampa with grace and elegance throughout a most difficult challenge of last minute change. She accomplished this without hesitation and went to work immediately ensuring our success in obtaining seats for all six in their respective class designation. I trusted her judgement and execution throughout the whole process and I'm deeply grateful for her winning attitude and ability to work under pressure. I plan to use Lena Brown for my future travel planning and through her partnerships and affiliations with other travel organizations and groups I feel we received the best experience possible and the use of the "Axus Travel App" on our phones kept informed of every detail, document, time of arrival, helpful hints and everything in between our travel was a smashing success and I can't thank her enough. Thank you, Lena and Largay Travel.
