What People are Saying
This was our first experience using a travel agent. Lisa was so incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Each recommendation she had for us made our trip much more memorable and enjoyable. We had never been to Costa Rica and because of her knowledge, we were able to experience a wide range of very fun activities with very limited research on our part. She also had excellent recommendations for transportation, which made the trip much easier than it would have been without her connections. We highly recommend using Lisa!
Lisa did an amazing job helping us plan our recent couples trip to the Cotswolds. She listened, was knowledgeable, and helped us book the perfect choice of accommodations. We loved our hotel, The Dormy House. I would definitely use Lisa again for future vacations.
Lisa is very well connected and so easy to work with. Whether planning ahead or last minute plans, she is always so responsive and available to help at all hours! Huge thanks to her we've had incredibly successful vacations.
