My fabulous birthday and girls trip!
Reviewed By Mercedes - Pembroke Pines, Florida | Traveled to Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
What can I say about my experience with Ms. Connor?! Patience is the first thing that comes through. She listened, was patient with the ridiculous group I was trying to get put together for a group trip and ended up being just a couple. Despite that, Ms. Connor treated me and my friends with the utmost professionalism, tact, follow-through and the best customer service EVER! My friends have made her their travel agent moving forward. She is definitely mine. I say look no further, because what she doesn't know [and its not a lot] she will find out for you with perseverance and a smile [you can hear it through each communication you have with her!]
