Anyone planning a holiday trip to Hawaii, has to think twice when considering the total price, the logistics and the flight duration! I attempted to navigate through Kayak, VRBO, Tripadvisor, etc. thinking about which islands, car rentals, food, activities, hotels and my budget. I fell into a state of "analysis paralysis" & then I found Leslie at Travel Leaders! Leslie sat and listened and then she did her magic and educated me on the best places for young adults, best options for oceanfront, nightlife,beaches and to stay within my budget. We were also under a time crunch since the places were booking up quickly for Winter break and the flights were very limited. Leslie plunged in and coordinated the right flights, the interisland flights, car rental and hotels that met our demands within our budget!!! As the expert, she reassured me and lead me to the right decisions and I must say, I was relieved to hand it over to an Expert like Leslie! I would gladly use her again!

Lesley has been a dream to work with. She will gladly go the extra mile for her customers (she makes you feel like family). She will take care of every detail, and make sure that your trip is the best it can be. If we are unsure about going to a particular location she will give you her best advise based on her knowledge of you, and she has never steered us wrong.
Once Lesley even made us last minute reservations at a Sandals resort even after she had gone home for the day to make sure we got the special promotional price that ended that day.
Top notch service every time!

We have had the pleasure of working with Lesley for many, many years. She's booked trips for us all around the world -- from Alaska to the Amazon, Milan to Myanmar, Belgium to Botswana -- and every time, without fail, she has worked her magic. We could not be more pleased with her recommended hotels, tours, and itineraries. Plus, Lesley knows the world well enough to advise her clients when and where it's safe to travel unescorted and when it's not.

Lesley makes it a point of getting to know her clients well, asking about their preferences, interests, and budgets. We can't imagine booking our leisure travel with anyone but Lesley. We would highly recommend Lesley to anyone who wants to make sure that their trip turns out to be exactly what they hoped -- and more. In addition, Lesley is a lot of fun to work with during the trip planning/booking process!

We have worked with Lesley on several vacations and all have been excellent experiences. We started using Lesley to book our vacations when we lived in the Boston area, and even though we have moved out of state we still use her and the service still exceeds expectations.

Lesley consistently responds to emails/phone calls when we begin our search, and makes sure to answer any questions or provide feedback to the destintations that we are discussing timely.

After our trips Lesley will follow up to assure our needs were met and obtain feedback on our vacation.

We have had zero issues and would recommend Lesley to anyone who needs a travel agent.

Lesley was great! She had great suggestion, ideas and knowledge about the cities on my travel route. Great insights about gluten free travel abroad.

Lesley, has always been the best travel agent we have had. We had many more before her but Lesley is always willing to help and understand us on what type of vacation we would like. When I call her about information regarding a trip we are planning and have questions she is always available and pleasant. I told her we would really miss her if she retires.

Lesley is fantastic with assisting with gluten free diets while traveling. I have used her numerous times for helping me safely travel with Celiac Disease. I highly recommend her!

We have been working with Lesley for many years. She has always returned my calls promptly and addressed our vacation needs as they have changed over the years. I would recommend Lesley to all my friends and acquaintances.

I was spending many nights trying to find quality all-inclusive resort that can accommodate gluten free dining . I found Lesley on the internet. I gave her a call and she made things simple. We talked through 5 options then I reviewed with family and picked her top recommendation. The rest of the process was simple. The resort was ready to accommodate us. On the way home my wife missed a flight due to TSA and she called Lesley's office and a co-worked helped to find a quick way home after the airport desk was unhelpful.
Lesley had many other favorite travel suggestions and I will start with her next time and not waste time researching.
Thanks, Lesley!

Lesley is extremely knowledgeable and a one-stop resource for booking GF travel. We trust her recommendations and feel fortunate to have found her.

Lesley is extremely knowledgeable about gluten free travel and has helped us book 2 fabulous trips.

Lesley has been our travel agent over many years and for a number of cruises in the Caribbean and this year to Alaska. We always go back to her because she finds us the best deals on rooms, gives us wonderful tips on which ship line to use,which ship to take, what to see, what to pack, what to sign up for on the cruises, and finds us wonderful hotels as well.
For this trip, Lesley recommended a balcony which turned out to be a fabulous idea - Cruising through Glacier Bay, we could view the glaciers unobstructed, hear the naturalist's commentary on our room's TV, and dash inside our room when we got cold. Following her tips we brought binoculars, dressed in layers, and reserved all of our land tours as soon as we could.
We rely on her for travel advice which has always been spot on!

Nothing but outstanding. Leslie is a professional. She knows her stuff and eptiomizes what an agent should be. Her active listening, consultation and strong opinions helped us plan a fabulous trip to Italy. Don't use her if you want to cut corners. She is thorough and won't let you make a mistake. We are now using her for a destination wedding.

My experience was wonderfully awesome!!! She eased all my fears about travelling to Mexico and about my dietary restrictions (Celiac/Diabetes). I would recommend her to anyone with Celiac.

Lesley was great to work with, Quickly returned E mail and asked good questions, Added and deleted tours etc until we were happy trip. The Hotel tours and travel plans we're perfect for my wife and I. She clearly had access tours and Guides we would not have found on our own.

We have consulted with Lesley for many years for our personal and professional travel needs.

Lesley is such a joy to work with and we will highly recommend her to our friends.

Lesley was so helpful, starting by getting to know our family's needs (food allergies) and preferences (twin beds for our sons). She is clearly experienced with visiting and arranging travel in Italy, as all of her hotels and tour guides were exceptional. She was able to coordinate a trip through Venice, Florence, Naples/Pompeii/Sorrento, and to Rome so that we felt we'd seen the highlights and enjoyed some relaxation time as well. We will definitely ask Lesley to arrange our next trip!

Wonderful - she had every detail organized flawlessly, she followed up responsibly, and made herself available for any and all questions!

She’s a communication and travel guru. Thorough, honest, and helped us with the perfect vacation.

Lesley listened to what we wanted in our trip & customized our vacation to Italy that was truly a trip of a lifetime for us! We were able to visit various cities & sites and able to customize a day to meet family in the Avellino area!

Lesley has been assisting us with our travel since 2003. From Heli-hiking the glacier in British Columbia, to Stockholm, Auckland or Melbourne she has been a valuable resource to plan and execute a trip. She even custom made a trip to South Africa complete with safari when we were unable to find a package tour that meet our needs. We wouldn't think of planning a trip without her.

My wife has celiac disease so she eats no gluten. Finding a restaurant that understands the significance of being gluten-free never mind one in a foreign country is quite challenging. Lesley understood our situation and without hesitation recommended several excellent properties that cater specifically to those with celiac disease.
We decided on the El Dorado Casitas Royale, a Spa Resort by Karisma and we couldn’t have had a more wonderful experience. Not only did the entire resort staff understand my wife was eating gluten-free, they went out of their way to make sure all of her meals and drinks were gluten-free.
Thanks to Lesley’s expert experience and thoughtfulness my wife didn’t experience any issues while eating at the resort and we had a wonderful time at an amazing property. All thanks to Lesley.
We’ll certainly be scheduling our next trip with Lesley.

Lesley was exceedingly helpful in planning, scheduling, and rescheduling our family's trip to Costa Rica! Unexpected elements of our children's schedules created unique challenges, which Lesley managed skillfully. We are grateful for Lesley's expertise, warmth, and thoughtful recommendations.

Working with Lesley was a great experience. We were looking for a location for a family of 11 people including our grandson with Celiac disease. She suggested the perfect location for everyone from ages 7 to 75. It was a wonderful family experience. She walked us through everything so we knew what to expect. She was very accurate when it came to dealing with a gluten free environment. We would definitely work with her again.

Lesley is able to provide great insight for our family with dietary restrictions. Having an insider view, particularly when it comes to cross contamination is critical.
Lastly, we had a last minute medical issue come up, and Lesley took care of everything! 1000 THANKS!

Great! Whole process was easy & Lesley is very attentive! Didn’t have to worry about a thing.

Lesley was easy to work with from the second we were in contact. She listened to our needs and wants - then personalized the trip to our exact specifications.

We will be working with Lesley again in the near future to book another fantastic trip. Oh yes, she was also able to upgrade our hotel at the last minute to a 5 STAR experience.

OUTSTANDING!

We’ve worked with Lesley on 2 trips - to Italy and France. She did a great job setting us up with hotels that were Celiac friendly and in great locations. She helped us plan the trips and set us up with GREAT tour guides and drivers. Can’t wait to plan our next trip with her!

Expectations can be a dangerous thing—hard to meet and even harder to exceed. The trip Lesley planned for us was truly extraordinary. She was thoughtful, inquisitive, and took all the worry out of our travel. The process was simple: we talked, exchanged emails about our options, priorities, and must-dos, and she crafted a custom trip just for us. Everything went flawlessly—from the accommodations and itinerary to the experiences and travel coordination. I would highly recommend Lesley and will absolutely use her for our next trip. Thank you, Lesley!

It is such a joy being able to work with Lesley. With celiac, every trip is a battle-- every detail needs to be mapped out in advance, every possible thing that could go wrong planned for because it is just so rare to find safe food along the way. Thanks to Lesley, we finally can take vacations where we just relax and enjoy our trip, instead of having to worry. The fact that she helps us arrange safe and delicious food at beautiful locations, makes the airport transfers a breeze, and is available anytime to help with issues that arise along the way is icing on the cake! I truly hope she never retires, because the service she provides means the world to us.

My wife and I have been relying on Lesley for our cruise vacations for many years and she has never disappointed. Alaska was absolutely amazing and is a one-of-a-kind experience that we would recommend to anyone. Lesley always knows what our preferences are and takes the hassle out of the booking experience to make it that much more enjoyable. If you're looking to take a cruise, Lesley is your person!

Lesley worked with my parents on their recent trip. My parents had some issues due to their health and Lesley stepped in and worked tirelessly to help them. I couldn't be more thankful. Trust this woman with your business, she is fantastic!

Working with Leslie was fantastic! She has so much knowledge and listens to your ideas and wishes. Our trip to Italy was amazing! Everything went of without a hitch and it was the best trip of our lives by far. We will definitely work with Leslie for future travel and have already recommended her to friends and family.

This is our second vacation booking with Lesley. We found Lesley through Facebook groups, as our two children have celiac and are on a strict gluten free diet. Lesley is extremely knowledgeable on all the resorts that can accommodate gluten free dietary needs and follow all necessary protocols for food preparation. Lesley worked within our budget and contacted the head of F&B at the resorts prior to our arrival. I trust her 1000% and already told her we will be booking a family vacation next year. I read reviews through various forums, and anything negative or that puts fear in me, Lesley always tells me not to worry. I wouldn’t plan another vacation that must meet my dietary needs without her.

Lesley was super easy to work with. She planned everything great, responded quickly whenever we had questions, and easily resolved any concerns we had. She set us up for a great trip!

Lesley helped my husband and I plan a 5 year anniversary trip. She was extremely responsive and helpful! It was a great vacation and will definitely use her again!

Leslie was wonderful to work with! She came highly recommended from a friend, and I am so glad we connected with her. She was extremely knowledgeable about all three Sandals resorts on St. Lucia, including the room types and the amenities they offer. She took the time to get to know our preferences and talk through options that were in our budget. Leslie helped make our honeymoon stress-free and relaxing by managing our bookings ahead of time. Once we started working with Leslie, we didn't have to worry about a thing! I look forward to working with her again in the future too.

We have just returned from another trip Lesley booked for us. This is one of many trips that Lesley has taken great care to investigate the right place for us. As I have Celiac - Lesley ALWAYS insures I will have the proper gluten free food. I highly recommend Lesley for all of your travels to wherever and whenever you want to go.

Lesley is wonderful when it comes to planning a gluten-free vacation. She helped us plan every detail of our trip and worked with the resort to make sure they followed our dietary needs. It took a lot of pressure off of us. We had a great time enjoying the warm Mexican weather while it was very cold back home. We just returned and we are already planning our next trip.

Lesley worked with us for over a week to find the perfect all inclusive resort that can accommodate strict gluten free for Celiac.

From the early planning stages to actually being on our trip, Lesley was great. I am gluten free and Lelsey has a wealth of knowledge of resorts/locations that will cater to my dietary restriction. She was also very responsive to issues that arose on my trip.

Lesley was great. Every detail was covered!

Lesley planned a 10 day vacation for our family (ranging in age from 6-72)). We stayed in Rome and Sorrento, with day trips to Florence and Pompeii. Our son has celiac disease and I am gluten intolerant and we had NO issues on our entire trip! It was such a relief not to have to worry about that. In addition to organizing celiac safe accommodations and a cooking class, Lesley suggested and recommended so many other experiences/tours that I would not have known to do. Our trip ran very smoothly and we all enjoyed our time away. We could not have done it without her!

Lesley listened to all of our needs and values and offered her first recommendation with back up offers if we needed more options.
We took her first recommendation and it was EXCELLENT. Our first concern when traveling are the food allergies of four in our party. She advocated for our safety and the chefs at this location have given us excellent care and protection.

Lesley is an incredible, caring and thoughtful travel agent. I've used many agents in the past, but none that come close to the care and attention that Lesley afforded me. She's incredibly knowledgeable about gluten free allergies and Celiac disease. She's the ONLY agent I would trust in planning and booking a safe vacation for my family. She listens, she thinks and provides you with honest feedback with great recommendations. I hope she stay in the business for many many many more years, I will only work with Lesley. If you or one of your family members have Celiac or any food allergy risks, you'll have peace of mind working with Lesley, she has strong network connections with the food and beverage leadership teams across many properties and will go out of her way to ensure a safe vacation for you and yours. God bless you Lesley.

absolutely phenomenal and a pleasure to work with Leslie.
Excellent recommendations,great suggestions and vast knowledge of all destinations
Every places she ever recommended has been outstanding and absolutely as described by Leslie.
She is our travel agent for life, and the best we ever used and we would not travel without Leslie doing the planning for our vacations.

Lesley takes time to learn preferences and tastes before suggesting travel so that clients are comfortable knowing that a particular destination will suit their needs.
Lesley follows through even when trips are confirmed, always seeking potential savings or better pricing.
When a trip is over, Lesley seeks feedback to insure that experiences were positive and that goals were met.

Lesley goes the extra mile! I have a number of food intolerances (gluten, corn, dairy, soy and buckwheat). Eating any of these foods has the very real potential to ruin my vacation. I heard about Lesley's services from a gluten free travel group I am in on facebook. I had never used a travel agent before. When it was time to celebrate my 40th, I called Lesley and I couldn't be happier with my service. She took the time to answer all our questions. My travel partner also has intolerances and we were both taken care of very well by the resort. I trusted Lesley because she had visited the resort many times and was intimately aware of how the resort runs and confident that we would be cared for. We had a wonderful vacation that we will never forget.
