Continuing a Family Tradition
Reviewed By NDavis - Amarillo, Texas | Traveled to Disneyland ~ California ~ USA
Thank you so much Lemon Drop Travels !

Disney and Disneyland was always a big part of my childhood and is currently a big part of my family’s life. It’s been 11 years since going to Disneyland (which is a long time for a person that used to go annually when living in Phoenix). This year, we took our children for the first time. We did 2 days in the parks and a 3rd at the Oogie Boogie Halloween Bash. In addition to our little family, we also got to be there with Aunts, Cousins, and Grandparents. Walking out of the park at midnight after 3 very long days, none of my children wanted to leave. It was an amazing trip with memories I wouldn’t trade for the world.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Tuscan Cooking Class

It was just the six of us in the most beautiful rustic Tuscan kitchen; worn stone walls, wooden tables, sunlight coming through the windows, and that cozy old-world charm that makes you feel l...

    Family Cruise
    Alyssa with Lemon Drop Travels made our vacation a breeze! She had everything booked super easy and even found us some savings throughout the year as our cruise date got closer. She was always available to answer any questions. We will use her again in the future!

    Kona Family Vacation
    Alyssa planned a trip to Hawaii for my family of 4. From the very beginning, she was easy to work with and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Alyssa made sure she understood where we wanted to stay, what our budget was and what our goals were for the trip. When there was a chance in our flights, she was prompt with emailing us about the change and asked if we wanted to keep the new flights or try and change back to the previous one. Alyssa emailed us a detailed itinerary with all of flight, rental car, and condo information before our trip that we printed off and brought with us. Alyssa made our vacation seamless from start to finish. Once we got back home, she emailed us to check in and make sure everything went okay on our trip. She was hands-on and attentive to us throughout the whole planning process and vacation process. I highly recommend Alyssa for all of your travel planning needs! She is such a joy to work with!

    Our trip was lovely and Alyssa stander at lemon drop travel was the absolute best. I will definitely call her for my next vacation.
    Donna C., Texas
    Swiss Adventure
    We had the best experience with Alyssa! We would definitely hire her again. She booked our flights, hotels, car rental, and train tickets to Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. We had a wonderful time and everything was seamless. Since we hadn't traveled to Europe on our own it took a lot of stress off to have someone make sure we were in good places to stay and point us in the right direction of what to do and how to book tickets to tours. She responded very quickly to every contact and checked in with us to make sure everything went smoothly.
    Naomi G., Arizona
    Austria Trip
    Alyssa was recommended to me by a friend and WOW!! Alyssa answered my texts and emails right away. She was very attentive and listened to everything that we were wanting. She made it happen and we just returned from our trip and every detail was just as she said. Hotels, airport and train transfers, tours in various cities were as recommended and very easy to follow. We will definitely be using Alyssa again for future travel needs. She even send us a travel goody bag that was not expected, but appreciated. She even followed up after our trip to check on us. We highly recommend Alyssa!!
