Mary, best trip of our lives! We want to work with
Reviewed By Bob & Leeann - Alpharetta, GA | Traveled to Austria | Europe
Mary, bottom line at the top: our trip was fabulous! Problem:We were lied to by incapable BA employees on many occasions, after standing in lines which were processing at a rate of one customer every 20 minutes. Solution:One call to Mary, and she handled that! You arranged our connecting flight and all we had to do was get our boarding pass printed. (In London, agents were still handing customers 1 per 20 minutes ... and there were still 300 angry passengers who no longer had connecting flights). Problem: Ship had to disembark at a different port Solution: Mary contacted them to re-route the driver. They were extremely reliable!Our day tours with local contacts were a positive experience. They always were there waiting and overall the experiences were superb under stressful conditions. Mary, we had a wonderful time! Thank you for your help. We want to work with you again!

Our Grand Adventure in the Nordic North!
Reviewed By Denise and Daughters - Big Canoe, GA | Traveled to Reykjavik | Iceland | Europe
Thank you for organizing such a wonderful trip to Iceland and Norway. We were very pleased with the detailed planning, the hotels, and the guides. Of course, we were delighted to see the Northern Lights three times in Iceland and two times in Norway! Given the complexity of the itinerary, we have a few specific comments to share. Our guide, Atli, was outstanding. His passion and dedication to the group were evident throughout the trip. We were very happy with the accommodations, meals, and activities. Atli also did a great job navigating road closures during a snowstorm to keep us on track. Norway Our guide, Reidar, was very knowledgeable about Tromso and the Northern Lights. We loved Tromso and found the dog sledding tour to be a highlight. The provider was patient and encouraging as Emily and Elissa learned to mush. Thank you for arranging such a positive experience. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Sami reindeer experience with Johnny; it was great fun. Again, we had a fabulous time and your hard work planning the trip and attending to so many details was the key to our grand adventure!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing trip of a lifetime!
Reviewed By SusieG - Atlanta, GA | Traveled to London | England | Europe
We had a fantastic family vacation to London for the week of New Year's- Mary did all the planning. I simply gave her a few ideas of what we wanted to see and do. She set it all up, organized the itinerary, contracted the tour guides and transportation. Everything went smooth as silk and was absolutely top notch. Hope to do it again next year!

Totally Enchanted!
Reviewed By Deb K. - Alpharetta, GA | Traveled to Sedona | Arizona | USA
My daughter and I enjoyed our first mother-daughter get away guided by Mary’s expert planning and suggestions. From the beginning of the process through the start of our trip, Mary kept us informed and shared suggestions for what would make the experience all we hoped for. She certainly delivered! The pacing, selection of activities and dining venues were all spot on. Knowing that she was available to call upon for assistance if needed was also a great comfort. We definitely want to make a mother-daughter trip an annual event. Mary was marvelous!
