Wonderful Trip…why? Kelli
Reviewed By Doc Sam - Sacramento, California | Traveled to Caribbean Sea | At Sea | At Sea
We had returned from a cruise. Had placed a deposit on our next one. As we were working on the detail our friend/agent passed away. The spouse called and said someone would be taking over her clients… a stranger. Kelli contacted us and it was literally,”smooth sailing.” Although we miss our friend, we now have a new one. With Kelli we are working on our next cruise. I’d recommend Kelli to anyone needing an incredible agent and friend. By the way, she is not bothered by your calls or questions she, welcomes them.
Kelli Benitez responded
"Thank you, Doc Sam! While we came to know each other under unfortunate circumstances, I am grateful for your trust & friendship. I'm happy I was able to help make this cruise (and future ones!) a reality. "

Oahu 2025
Reviewed By JaniVaca - Livermore, CA | Traveled to Waikiki, Oahu | Hawaii | USA
Thank you again to Kelli at 7 Wonders Vacations for planning my husband’s 50th birthday trip of a lifetime to Waikiki beach, Oahu Hawaii.
Kelli was incredibly helpful in all aspects of planning and booking our trip. She spent a lot of time talking to me about what we envisioned for the trip and made it all happen. Loved the entire process and she was genuinely excited for our trip and the way she cared about her clients really showed. All flights, accommodations, tours and transportation were booked for us.
We loved our resort hotel and all the day trips. Exceeded our expectations. We will never forget the wonderful experience and family memories made.
We will definitely call Kelli again to book our next vacation!

A Milestone Birthday In Spain & Portugal
Thank you so much for helping plan (this) milestone birthday in our Spain and Portugal adventure! Your guidance you gave us along the way really made us at ease and we’re so grateful for your patience through the process.We had an incredible time, wow! Just wow! What a thoughtful surprise to come home to those Crumbl cookies! After all the flights and time zones, they hit the spot in the best way. You really didn’t have to, but it was such a sweet gesture (literally and figuratively!).Thanks again for being so kind and thoughtful!

A Dream Italian Thanksgiving
Thank you so much for helping us plan the most amazing memorable trip of a lifetime! Everything was perfect and the hotels were exactly what we were hoping for - central location, enough sleeping space for our family and number of bathrooms, level of hotel service and amenities with restaurant & bar/lounge and breakfast included daily was a perfect start and end to everyday on our trip!
We all enjoyed every minute and can’t wait for our next European vacation Can’t thank you enough...YOU’RE AWESOME!!

So happy with 7 Wonders Vacation & Travel with Kelli Benitez! Kelli helped us with 2 vacations now both in 2024, one in Costa Rica, one in Europe, and it really is peace of mind to have someone to help make the reservations up front, and to be able to call in case there was a question or issue (which there wasn't!) We were greeted with a sweet welcome note by Kelli upon check in' s and just received a sweet treat as a thank you for booking through her. There can be so many moving parts in planning vacations, it's wonderful to have someone helping on the preplanning part with suggestions and recommendations! Thanks Kelli!

Mother/Daughter Paris Graduation Trip
Sometimes the unexpected happens: "... I appreciate all your help. I've never really worked with (a) travel agent before and I was a little surprised that you reached out to me when our flight was canceled and help me with all of that... I couldn't appreciate that anymore. A lot of my fellow passengers were like, 'Wow she reached out to you. We had to reach out to ours'... I was like 'Yeah cause mine is the best.' "

European Bucket List Trip
Thank you so much for the gift we received today. You are a sweet and thoughtful person. We had the time of our lives and enjoyed every minute. I loved so many of the places we experienced and the sight of all the beautiful buildings. We would stop in our tracks when we would come around a corner and see such amazing sites....You have everything dialed in (with the) Trip Plans app. Many thanks again for helping make this a dream come true and it was so enjoyed.

French Polynesian Anniversary Trip
We had an amazing trip! My husband and I want to go back to Bora Bora for another big anniversary for sure. I cannot tell you how easy this process was, especially going to another country and not speaking the languages. The Intercontinental in Bora Bora was definitely our favorite for so many reasons...overwater bungalow, great restaurants and breakfast buffet, amazing people, unbelievable view. Manava in Moorea is a sweet resort. The staff was amazing here as well. (At) the Intercontinental in Tahiti, we were upgraded to an overwater bungalow. This was fun! The transfer to the ferry was great, and the van driver made sure we knew exactly where to go to catch the ferry. She pointed out the stairs we needed to take and gave clear instructions of where to go. The ferry ride was like an excursion. You could sit on top and just enjoy the ride or sit inside, which is huge, and enjoy the air conditioning and even get food.
Thank you again for planning such an amazing trip!!!

Maui Family Vacation At Last!
Hi Kelli. I wanted to give you a big thank you for your work in arranging our trip to Maui. I got home Saturday night and was sad as was everyone, to leave Maui.
We all had an absolutely wonderful trip. It was heart warming to see all members of my family with huge smiles during all the activity and finally relaxing.
Honua Kai was great and we had a great ocean view. We all loved the Lanai and the large size allowed all eight of us to be out and comfortable together.
Thank you for all of your recommendations, working with our crazy schedules and requests! The welcome gift in our room was such a nice surprise and we enjoyed it all.
We are all anxious to go back and will definitely contact you when we have definite dates.
Thank you so much again.
