Rachel is a rockstar! We traveled with our two teenagers to Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, and her planning was spot on. The best thing she did for us was organizing luggage forwarding (Takkyubin) between our hotels. Not having to drag four big suitcases onto the bullet train was the best decision we made. She also managed to snag us tickets to the Ghibli Park, which we knew were almost impossible to get on our own. She really listened to what our kids wanted to do and balanced it perfectly with the temples and history we wanted to see. We had a blast.

We just got back from our 10th-anniversary trip to Kyoto and Hakone, and we can’t thank Rachel enough. She recommended a specific ryokan in Hakone that had its own private hot spring on the balcony with an amazing view of Lake Ashinoko, and it was exactly the kind of relaxation we were looking for. Rachel also recommended this incredible tempura spot in Gion that we never would have found on our own. Her daily itineraries were so easy to follow and took all the stress out of navigating. It was a perfect trip from start to finish.

We were so overwhelmed trying to plan our first trip to Japan, but Rachel made everything so much easier. We spent most of our time in Tokyo and Osaka, and we would have been totally lost without her. She specifically helped us get our digital Suica cards set up on our phones before we even left home, which was a lifesaver for hopping on the subways. She also helped us navigate our way in the neighborhoods of Shimokitazawa and Koenji that was the highlight of our trip. If you’re nervous about the language barrier or the trains, just let Rachel handle it, she knows all the shortcuts!

2 days touring the islands by boat was amazing. Trip planning was excellent, Itinerary great, lodging great. Working with my budget was great! I'll definitely use Rachel's services again.

For my husband's 50th birthday, we finally took the leap and went to Tokyo. We had always been a little intimidated by the size of the city and the language, but working with Rachel put all our worries at ease. She planned a perfect day-by-day itinerary for us, and her tips were a lifesaver. Her advice on navigating the busy train stations and using IC cards made getting around so simple. Another small but incredibly helpful tip was to carry a small plastic bag for trash, which made a huge difference since trash cans are so hard to find. Thanks to Rachel, we had a stress-free and unforgettable birthday celebration.

From our very first video call, we knew Rachel was the travel agent for our family's Japan trip. We are a family of five with three kids, so finding someone who could handle all of our needs felt like a big task. Rachel was so impressive, with a huge amount of knowledge about Japan, and she took detailed notes on our family's specific interests. She immediately put us at ease by showing how she could find the perfect balance of fun, kid-friendly places and opportunities for us to learn about the culture. We knew right away we were in good hands.

My husband and I used to live in the Philippines, and we were so excited to show our parents all the places we love. We also wanted to see a new place ourselves, so Rachel helped us plan a trip that included El Nido, which we'd never been to before. Not only did she make sure everything was perfect for our parents, but she also helped us see the Philippines in a totally new light! We got to revisit old spots and make new memories with our family. We even had time to see some old friends! Rachel made everything so easy. I can't recommend her enough.

A few months ago, my family and I took the most meaningful trip to the Philippines to fulfill my mom's last wish to be in her home country. Rachel planned everything for us, and it all went so smoothly. We didn't have to worry about a thing and could just focus on spending that precious time with my mom. I can't thank Rachel enough for helping us create those beautiful last memories. She really understood how important this was to us, and her help made all the difference.

I just got back from an amazing trip to Cebu, Philippines, and I have to give a huge shout-out to Rachel, my travel agent. Everything about the trip, from the flights there to coming back home to Vermont, went super smoothly. Rachel was so helpful and quick to respond. When one of my flights got canceled, she got back to me in just five minutes and did everything she could to help, even though it was out of her control. I'll definitely be asking Rachel to help me plan my next trip!

This was our first experience using a professional tour guide and it certainly will not be our last.

Rachel helped my partner and me plan our first big international trip to Japan, and it was seriously amazing! We went to Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, and also got to stay a night at a Hakone ryokan. Rachel was super helpful from the start, always quick to answer our questions and giving us some really good tips. She suggested a twin room instead of a double, which made a huge difference – having more space to spread out was awesome after long days of exploring. The highlight of our trip had to be the ryokan in Hakone. We had a room with our own private outdoor tub, and it was so cool to just relax in the hot bath. The kaiseki meal was incredible too – so many different dishes, and everything tasted amazing. Rachel made planning this trip so easy, letting us just enjoy our time in Japan. If you're thinking about a trip, you should definitely talk to her!

My husband, Arthur, and I just returned from a glorious month-long adventure in the Philippines, all thanks to the wonderful Rachel! Our first stop was Cebu for the Sinulog Festival – what a vibrant and joyful celebration! The parades, the music, the energy of the people – it was truly something to behold. Next, we enjoyed the beautiful beaches of Boracay. Such a relaxing spot for a stroll along the white sand and watching the stunning sunsets. El Nido was next, and oh my, the scenery was simply breathtaking. Those towering limestone cliffs and the clear turquoise waters were just like the pictures, if not more beautiful in person. Finally, we ventured up to Sagada in the Mountain Province. The cool, crisp air and the stunning rice terraces were a welcome change of pace. We even explored some of the fascinating caves there. What did we love the most? It's hard to pick just one thing, but the warmth and friendliness of the Filipino people truly made our trip so special. Rachel, thank yo

We just got back from an amazing week in Japan, and Rachel planned the perfect trip for us! We spent most of our time in Tokyo, which is just a crazy cool city – so much to see and do. Rachel gave us some awesome tips for nightlife in Shibuya, and we had such a fun time checking out the bars and the energy there. But the highlight for us was definitely the side trip to Takayama. It was so different from Tokyo, really beautiful and traditional. Staying in a ryokan there was such a cool experience, with the tatami mats and the onsen. It felt like stepping back in time. Rachel’s recommendation for that was spot on. It was the perfect mix of the modern buzz of Tokyo and the peaceful charm of Takayama. We can't wait to go back!

Rachel streamlined the planning process for our Siargao adventure, taking care of everything from flights to accommodations. Her expertise in navigating the island and her recommendations for local transportation made the trip hassle-free. With Rachel's guidance, we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the island's beauty and culture.

Rachel's recommendations for El Nido and Boracay were great! El Nido was like something out of a movie with its crazy beautiful cliffs and lagoons – the island hopping was unreal, and her tip about kayaking was awesome. Then Boracay was just pure beach bliss with those soft sands and amazing sunsets. Everything was so smooth getting between the islands too. Thank you so much, Rachel!

If you are interested in having everything go like clockwork and experiencing a stress-free vacation, we would highly recommend using Rachel to plan your trip to the Philippines.

Our extended family decided on a trip to Boracay, and honestly, we were a little nervous about coordinating everyone. But working with Rachel made it so easy. From the start, communication was fantastic. We never felt like we were left guessing about anything. Rachel was always quick to respond to our questions, and she really listened to what we wanted. The whole trip went off without a hitch. We just showed up and enjoyed ourselves.

I loved knowing that we had an experienced professional looking out for us throughout our trip. Everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful time. Thank you, so much!

Working with Rachel was very enjoyable. I had not used a travel agent in some time and was pleased with this experience. This trip involved travel to a foreign country where I did not speak the language. She worked within my budget and I was suprised and very pleased with all the accomodations provided. I liked that I was provided a local guide/contact that was in the same time zone as my trip. The day-of online app instructions for airport and hotel transfers was very helpful. Would highly recommend working with Rachel for a trip to the Philippines.

Rachel is a true foodie! She planned a culinary adventure through Japan, taking my family and I to the best takoyaki in Dotonbori, the freshest kaisen-don in Kyoto and the amazing street food stalls in Asakusa. We tried so many delicious dishes, and I'm still dreaming about them. I can't wait to go back!

The resort we stayed at was incredible the workers were absolutely amazing, the people in El Nido was amazing, the views were gorgeous, the tours was breathtaking and we wouldn’t have gotten to experience that if we hadn’t chose Rachel as our trip adviser. Even at the end there was a typhoon and Rachel did everything she could to get us answers and help us with our flight being canceled and got us into contact with people to help us and to tell us what we need to do!
