Another amazing trip!
Reviewed By KristenS - Seattle, Washington | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Laura recently helped us plan a beautiful bachelorette party in Cancun so our group could celebrate our bride-to-be! Everything was seamless. The property was a perfect fit for us with stunning views, delicious food, and fun activities on-site. Laura also helped organize transfers to and from the airport so the process was safe and easy, and she coordinated our flights. She’s helpful and responsive, and she made the trip perfect (as she has every time I’ve worked with her). Can’t wait for the next adventure!

The best weekend!
Reviewed By Lexxx - CA | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Had a wonderful experience booking with Laura for a bachelorette trip weekend in Cancun Mexico. She had us upgraded to a diamond club member level where we were able to get higher quality drinks and service, the hotel was amazing, and having her plan everything was seamless and made for an easy trip for the girls. Thanks again, Laura!

A perfect bachelorette weekend in Mexico!
Reviewed By ColoradoGal94 - Cancun | Traveled to Mexico
Laura planned a fantastic weekend for us at the Royalton Chic Cancun for a bachelorette weekend! The resort was the perfect mix of party and relaxation for our group — with plenty to do on property, friendly staff, and great food and beverages! We partied the weekend away, and are already wishing we were back under the Mexican sun. Will definitely be reaching out to The Point of Travel for our next girls trip!

Excellent trip!
Reviewed By rick25 - Coto de Caza, CA | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Laura did a superb job selecting our hotels. Her knowledge of the location and type of hotel for our trip was spot-on. She also knew the highlights we'd like and the best way to see them. Her knowledge of Italy was invaluable to us having a great time. She spent quite a bit of time with us to review the trip details and make sure we understood everything. We are experienced travelers but Laura had knowledge of Italy that allowed us to efficiently see the sights with enough downtime for us to not feel rushed. For trips to Italy, she's an excellent resource.

Fabulous trip thanks for Laura
Reviewed By Jane and Gregg - North East, PA | Traveled to Italy | Europe
I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Laura. She made our trip memorable and hassle free. She really personalized our trip for us and got to know us. We like nice hotels and great tours and she set us up with incredible hotels in Florence and Venice. Tori’s were amazing. We also did a Viking Cruise and she walked us through the entire process and it could not have been easier. I will definitely use Laura in the future. Highly recommend.

UNFORGETTABLE TRIP!
Reviewed By KimK - Laguna hills CA | Traveled to Paris | France | Europe
Thank you Laura Bender for helping plan an amazing trip to France and England! Laura was so helpful especially since we booked it last minute !! She did everything from finding us the best deals yet most comfortable flights, to booking all our hotels, to reserving magical excursions for us. Not only did she book excursions for us, but she chose highly rated and unique ones.
We had a snafu on the way home from England and she helped find another flight for us immediately so we could get home the same day. She goes above and beyond.
I will not travel again without Laura’s help and professional recommendations and organizations. She makes travel a breeze and memorable.
I can’t wait for our next trip. She has amazing ideas in mind for us :))

Little spot of paradise on the mainland
Reviewed By Beach chica - Phoenix, AZ | Traveled to Laguna Beach ~ California ~ USA
Laura always works hard to help me find the most relaxing and interesting places to stay. I can be indecisive or vague on my vacation needs and she can put together a fantastic trip! My last trip to Laguna Beach was on a whim with only the beach as the destination. Laura found me a hotel on the sand with unique and fun restaurants all around it. The stay was relaxing and fun. I have used Laura to plan multiple trips as big as 3 weeks in Europa to just weekend getaways. She never steers me wrong. Definitely will continue to have her help me plan my time off.

The most memorable trip of our lives!
Reviewed By Sue - Buffalo, NY | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Laura coordinated a family trip to Italy for three couples, including Rome, Florence and Venice, and she helped us get to visit family in Montemaggiore. She did an excellent job at suggesting the perfect lodging for each leg of our trip. Laura also made transportation seamless as we traveled throughout the country. She made some great recommendations and coordinated the best way to see the major attractions in each location. Our trip was not overly planned and we were able to travel down the Amalfi Coast and visit Pompeii at our leisure. I am currently coming up with dates to have Laura help plan our next adventure!

Everything was perfect
Reviewed By JR - Orange County Ca | Traveled to
I first thought I would book this particular vacation to Europe on my own. I shopped the internet and thought I had the best deals and the nicest hotels for the money. I thought I should at least confirm with a travel agent. Laura was able to get me better properties and for less money. She also got me international business class flights for about the same as I was paying for coach. I also booked all of my city tours through her and they turned out perfect. She now books all of my travel and I wouldn't consider changing that for anything.

Great idea for a romantic and relaxing honeymoon trip
Reviewed By LisainCoto - Coto de Caza, California | Traveled to
Laura gave me several great suggestions for an anniversary getaway with my husband. Each suggestion was unique and special so it was hard to decide which one but I absolutely loved the place we chose, the Carmel Valley Ranch in Northern California. She listened to what we wanted to do and we were thrilled with her suggestion. Her attention to detail was outstanding. She emailed the management prior to our stay so they wished us a Happy Anniversary the moment we stepped into the lobby. Laura's extra effort ended up in some special upgrades from the resort that we would not have received if we had booked it ourselves. Laura provided great customer service, and had a wealth of connections and ideas. Well done! I will definatly use Laura again for our vacations and business travel.

Our next trip we plan to go to Scotland and Ireland and we look forward to again working with Laura.
