I want to give a ginormous shout out to Karen Byars of Byars Travel! It's been a long time since…read moreI've used an agent because it was always more hassle than it was worth, but Karen has changed that perception for me. She's SO responsive and always has or will find an answer to any question I can think of. She's been patient and flexible with me. I truly feel taken care of and like I'm getting more value than I would have if I had booked my cruise myself. If you're considering a vacation - I encourage you to reach out to her!

I invited myself to a a friend's family vacation (thank god they were excited to have us join! ). The trip was fast approaching (I mean within 2-3 weeks). I was referred to Karen and within an hour or two, we had an all inclusive resort on the beach set for a family of four!! Not only that, she got us to stay at the same place as our friend along with all transportation included for both families (we did everything together). Prior to leaving the country, Karen sent important details and reminders to ensure smooth sailing (or flying) which was extremely helpful given covid restrictions. She checked in on us during our stay as well as before traveling back home. There were some mix ups during the travel BUT Karen continued to help fix any and all issues that we encountered right away even with the time difference. It was almost as if she were right there with us. I have never used a travel agent let alone post a review on Yelp. However, it should be know that Karen is an excellent agent and works extremely hard to ensure your vacation will be one to remember (of course in a good way). I highly recommend her for your travel needs! Thank you Karen!

I am writing to express our sincere appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Michael…read moreMcKay. His dedication and responsiveness truly went above and beyond our expectations. He was very patient with our group of 11 trying to decide what cruise line we should pick. Michael answered all of our questions in a quick and timely manner, ensuring that we were always informed and confident in our decisions. What truly stood out was his commitment to customer satisfaction--he even took the time to call us over the weekend, outside of regular working hours, to let us know that an upgrade we were interested in had become available and to ask if we would like to proceed. This level of attentiveness and care is rare and highly commendable. He is the best travel agent we have ever had and we want to thank him for his outstanding service.

Even when I had to reschedule the trip she was more than happy to assist in rearranging everything. She was so professional and knowledgeable, she created an itinerary based on just a few things I told her I was interested in doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to travel. I personally look forward to using her as my travel agent again in the future. Thank you Allison for all your kindness and attention to detail!

If you give Jen an idea of where you want to go, what you would like to do, and a budget, she does all the work for you and comes back with 3-4 package ideas. She has been able to get us some incredible "insider" deals/upgrades which is one of the reasons we always use a travel agent. She is incredibly knowledgeable about cruises, including the pros and cons of most of the cruise lines. After your trip is planned, Jen is your advocate. She constantly monitors for potential price changes, reminds you when payments are due, and is there for you if you have any issues while traveling. She can also find you the perfect tours, museum tickets, sports tickets or excursions that will make your trip truly incredible.

That aside, she is constantly in the Caribbean, Mexico, or Hawaii and has likely stayed or toured any hotel or cruise ship you might consider. She knows the islands so well and can tailor your vacation to your price and your style. We've recently used Evie also for family vacation with our little baby. Before Evie I never realized that travel agents are free, and I always thought I could scour the internet and find the best deals. Not necessarily so as Evie has access to various wholesalers that only certified travel agents do. Can't recommend her services and expertise enough! She's local in Walnut Creek but can service anyone anywhere!
