An adventure of a lIfetime with my daughters
Reviewed By John in Tampa - Tampa , Florida | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
We had an unforgettable family vacation in Costa Rica over Christmas thanks to Marilyn.
I can’t sing her praises enough for her patience with us in outlining excursion options, her diligence in the details for each step of the way, her ingenuity in finding subject matter experts and information at our destinations and then her rapid action in securing airline seats in the busiest time of the season.
Marilyn is very attentive to all details and takes each step for you with instructions and even entering your TSA, Passport Info and Frequent Flyer information into your reservations. It was kind like having personal assistant as Marilyn provides a personal and professional touch in her work
with clients.
You will be very happy that you picked Marilyn to plan your next adventure or relaxing vacation.

White-gloves services
Reviewed By Tony Shams - St Petersburg, FL | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
Marilyn planned a trip to Costa Rica for me, including fights, transportation, hotels, excursions and daily events, the return Covid test and logistics (this was right when Costa Rica had opened up post-Covid), dinner reservations, etc. – all to the tee. The whole trip was planned so well that all I had to do was to show up. It worked like a charm and everything was executed like clockwork!
It was my first time traveling alone. In the past I had either traveled with companions or visited people. I was rather nervous at the beginning. Not only she had planned the whole trip for me so I didn't have to worry about anything, but she was completely on top of it, checking on me via WhatsApp to make sure everything was going well. It was a total VIP and white-gloves service which created an unforgettable trip for me.
I highly recommend Marilyn. She cares, loves and knows traveling, knows her stuff, works really hard, and treats her clients like family.
Marilyn Burrows responded
"Dear Tony,
Thank you for this lovely review. I'm especially glad that you felt the "VIP and white-gloves" treatment as I'm truly committed to making my clients' travel worry-free and taking care of each client's trip as if it were my own.
I look forward to continuing to bring fabulous travel experiences into your life.

Consistent and reliable
Reviewed By Luv2Trvl - Dunedin Florida | Traveled to Rhone River | On the River | At Sea
Once again Marilyn at YourDreamTravels set us up with a wonderful trip! This time was an Emerald cruise down the Rhone River in France from Lyon to Nice . Everything was planned to perfection. When Emerald did not provide the exact address of the cruise ship location, Marilyn stepped up and got us the address as we were Ubering from the train station. We are already working on our next trip with Marilyn; a private yacht cruise in the Virgin Islands.

"Dear Lynn and Kathleen,
It's always such a pleasure to work with you two on your around-the-world travels! I love the passion we share for travel and the fact that you know exactly what you want and make pulling it together such a fun and rewarding experience. Seeing your smiling faces on your Facebook travel posts makes my day.
Thank you! Looking forward to your private yachting trip!

A joy to work with!
Reviewed By Luv2Trvl - Dunedin, Florida | Traveled to Iceland | Europe
We have completed several trips, including an Alaska group cruise, orchestrated by Marilyn with Iceland as the latest one. When we propose a trip, she quickly provides some ideas and suggestions to help us plan our itinerary. She promptly addresses any changes that are needed. We primarily use Marilyn to help with the big picture plan and booking because we enjoy focusing on the details of what we do while on a trip. Not that she can't do it all, we just enjoy doing some of the planning details ourselves. We are trying to complete our bucket list within the next 5 years and Marilyn will be an integral part of that planning.

Royal Caribbean Dream Cruise
Reviewed By LS - Tampa, Florida | Traveled to Mexico
I have known Marilyn Burrows for over 20 years. Her passion for travel has turned into her Dream Job...and her "Dream" is for her clients to experience their Dream Travels. We just got off a birthday cruise, in Tampa, where she organized a 5 day trip for 14 ladies. She handled and coordinated all the arrangements from boarding to getting off the ship. She negotiated a great group rate for us & communicated exceptionally well, ensuring all 14 of us would get the best travel experience. And we did! Marilyn also coordinated a day of snorkeling in Cozemul, Mexico for us. She organized the boat ride, the snorkeling, the food & drinks, pick up and drop off back to the ship. Everything she set up for us ran smoothly and we all had a blast!
I would highly recommend Marilyn Burrows for your up coming and future travel arrangements. If your travel arrangements have her name on it...you can be garenteed she will treat your travels as her own. She is also very well versed in international

Our personalized trip to the Paralympics & France
Reviewed By Gigi - Pinellas Park, FL | Traveled to France | Europe
When we decided to attend the Paralympics in Paris, we began to plan to also visit northern France. Having never traveled to Europe I decided it best to ask for help with the planning. I contacted Marilyn & explained our basic plans... to attend the Paralympics in Paris, to go to Monet's Gardens, to tour Dunkirk, & ultimately to tour Normandie (the beaches & the National Cemetery). With that basic plan, Marilyn scheduled a wonderful trip! She arranged our flights, our housing, & a rental car. She arranged a romantic supper cruise on the Sienne, a tour of the Eiffel Tower, & a tour of the catacombs. The tour of Monet's gardens was with a private guide & a small group. The tour of Dunkirk was with a personal guide who was fully engaged & knowledgeable. In Normandie, Marilyn had arranged for a private bike tour of the beaches which sadly was cancelled by the host just before we left the states. Marilyn searched & was able to quickly book a substitute bike tour with Hugo... which

Alaska: Can't Wait To Go Back!
Reviewed By TimmyTop - Florida, Treasure Island | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Marilyn is the most thorough travel agent I've ever worked with. Our Alaska trip was fantastic from beginning to end. She is not your normal 9-5 travel agent. She will be up all ours of the night working on your trip. I recently was one of the unlucky travelers on Southwest Airlines this holiday. A trip I booked myself but Marilyn was up until 4 am in the morning working on getting me home. The amount of time she puts into her clients is amazing.
