Good Vibes & Ocean Tides

Fun and memorable time!

Kate did a nice job with all of the details and talking over any questions. She was even very prompt with last minute questions which we SO appreciated!

Kate was very attentive to our requests, even though our group was huge! The day of our departure, we had a flight cancellation. She was up at the crack of dawn helping me rebook my flight and secure our hotel reservation. She even worked with the resort to get us an extra night stay. She really went above and beyond. I highly recommend her.

Overall we had a great experience. Kate helped us out with the whole process and made it memorable.

Kate makes all of our travel plans so easy. That’s the best way to start a vacation. I will use Kate to book all of my future travel. I highly recommend.

The resort was beautiful! We enjoyed everyone there. The staff was so friendly.

We so appreciate Kate’s recommendation to try Celebrity - we had an excellent experience and will definitely book another! Kate’s responsiveness and clear communications are always appreciated. She knows what we’re looking for and always delivers!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Kate to plan our trip to the British Virgin Islands. From start to finish, she was informative, caring, and truly attentive to every detail. She took the time to understand what we wanted and created a beautiful, stress-free itinerary. Kate was always available to answer questions and offer helpful advice, which made the entire planning process easy and enjoyable. Our BVI trip was seamless, memorable, and perfectly suited to us. We would definitely recommend Kate to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated travel agent. We can’t wait to work with her again!

Kate gave us excellent guidance in planning a trip for spring break. We had lots of variables to consider and she was patient, helpful, and knowledgable. Kate listened carefully and provided various suggestions in terms of locations. We had to delay our trip but are eager to work with Kate to plan our next trip! We highly recommend her. Thanks, Kate!

I had an excellent experience working with Kate from start to finish, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other travelers. I reached out to Kate very short notice, wanting to travel in three weeks. When I reached out, she responded that very day and I was able to book my trip in under 48 hours. From the early planning stages, Kate was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in understanding what I wanted from the trip. She took the time to listen, asked thoughtful questions, and offered suggestions that clearly came from deep knowledge and experience. Throughout the planning process, communication was seamless. Kate explained options clearly, stayed on top of details, and made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and enjoyable. Overall, Kate delivered outstanding service at every stage—from initial planning to the trip itself. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for her clients truly set her apart. I would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a well-planned, stress-free travel experience.

Kate is very attentive to all your needs and questions. Very prompt and courteous! She is genuinely interested in how your trip is going and checks in regularly to make sure things are going as planned. It's as if she's a guardian angel!

Kate was so easy to work with. She gave us so many options and was really helpful!

Kate was able to book a very last minute trip to Dominican Republic for my boyfriend and I. I didn’t have a very large budget but she found multiple resorts that were beautiful, luxurious, and met all my needs and more. Kate relieved all the stress of planning a trip, I couldn’t ask for anyone better!

Kate did another fantastic job helping us with our vacation plans. She has helped us in the past with our plans and I would definitely have her help us again. Her help let us have a stress free and very enjoyable vacation!

We gave her a good challenge. Super last minute trip to somewhere warm. She delivered! Super appreciative! Well done.

Our honeymoon was amazing! From the minute we landed we felt very taken care of! Our hotel was amazing, service was fantastic! I would go back in a heartbeat!

Kate did absolutely amazing booking our trip! She was very kind and very easy to work with and our trip to Cancun was seamless!

Kate guided us from the start! got the trip booked and understood what was best for us and it was! It was a first for us, so lots of questions for Kate and she answered them all very timely and nicely. No question was "too dumb". If things changed, she sent the e-mails before any thing from the tour folks even had hit my in-box. Our experience was perfect because of Kate. Thank You so much!!

We had the most amazing honeymoon in Antigua, and it was all thanks to Kate John! From start to finish, she made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. Every detail was taken care of, and our trip truly exceeded our expectations. When our original flight was unexpectedly canceled, Kate immediately jumped into action. She helped us navigate our travel insurance and rebooked us on the very next flight out. It was as if nothing had gone wrong at all, which let us fully relax and enjoy our honeymoon without worry. Her professionalism, quick response time, and genuine care for her clients really set her apart. We can’t recommend Kate enough, she made our dream honeymoon a reality, and we’ll definitely be using her for all of our future travels!

Kate did an amazing job finding us a hotel while working around Comicon, I would recommend her to anyone.

Kate did a fabulous job planning a family vacation for 9 of us. We were coming from 3 different cities and had only a 2 1/2 week window of dates to work with, and she coordinated everything for us! The price was well within our budget, and her personal check ins before, during and after our trip made us feel really special.

I've wanted to go to the east coast on a train for over 40 years. My husband always wanted to go west. He passed away 2 years ago and I found the opportunity to do so. Kate John listened to my desires and put a trip together for me, my daughter and my grandchildren. She found the perfect hotel that was a must for our trip and it was perfect for our stay. She listened to everything I needed to make the trip the best experience we could have and it all fell into place perfectly. We had some issues with the train and she did everything she could to make it right. I did not feel any stress because everything worked so perfectly. I will use Kate again for future trips.

After trying for hours to book flights and hotels in Europe on our own - only to have the airline cancel our flights, we turned to Kate for help. She was awesome! Kate took care of booking all our hotel rooms and flights for our muti-city European vacation. The hotels were just what we wanted, and our flights were great! We loved working with Kate, and will do so again. She took all of the stress of planning our vacation away! I am also recommending her to family members and friends.

Ever try planning a three-island trip accommodating 3 couple's schedules and having it be absolute fantastic? Kate helped us make that happen for us and our family. Kate was fantastic from planning, through the trip and for our trip home. Nice touches having her check in through the trip to make sure all was going as planned; and helping when we had some airline issues. Kate exceeded our expectations - thanks for making this family trip so wonderful for the 6 of us!

I worked with Kate to plan a Caribbean Cruise to celebrate our 45th Wedding Anniversary. We instantly connected and Kate was very knowledgeable and helpful in planning this trip for our special occasion. She was professional, and communicated each step of the way. We were very pleased and excited for our upcoming trip. A couple of days before our trip was to take place, my husband fell sick and we had to cancel our trip. Thank goodness we had the travel insurance and Kate was instrumental in connecting with the insurance company to ensure we knew how and what was needed to process our cancellation. We were lucky to have Kate as our agent as she was very helpful with the process of filing our claim and we felt very comfortable and confident with her assistance. We will certainly connect with Kate to schedule another cruise at a later date and would highly recommend her to help plan your travel adventures!

We were so blessed by the expertise and guidance of Kate John for our bucket list trip. She was patient and asked super-helpful, clarifying questions so we could narrow down what we wanted most. Phenomenal.....trip of a life time. Kate is passionate and might have been more excited for us than we were. Can't recommend KJ enough!

From the brainstorming in the beginning through the final landing. Kate listened to our ideas and descriptions of what we liked and then crafted an amazing offering that totally delivered!

Kate was amazing. She listened to our needs and found exactly what we were looing for. She is very knowledgeable and willing to shar he knowledge and experience. She is also very responsive. If we had a question or something in out itinerary needed attention she was on it immediately!! We definitely recommend Kate!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Kate! She truly took everything we were looking for in our honeymoon and provided us with amazing options that perfectly fit our preferences. From different excursions to detailed pros and cons of each choice, she made it so easy to decide what was best for us. She also gave us great recommendations on things to do at the resort, ensuring we had a memorable and stress-free trip. The entire planning process was seamless—she organized all our transportation and provided clear, detailed itineraries that made everything effortless. We always felt prepared and informed, and it was comforting to know we could easily get in touch with the right people if we had any questions. Thanks to Kate, we were able to fully enjoy our honeymoon without worrying about the logistics. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stress-free, well-organized travel experience!

Kate provided great options and was exceptionally responsive to our many questions. The trip went off without a hitch!

We planned a 10-day trip to Colombia that included stays in Bogota and Cartagena with our adult children and their partners. Some of the trip was planned before we started to work with Kate. Kate found a wonderful place for us to stay in Cartagena based on what we wanted in a property; she worked at getting additional information on Bogota (even though she did not book those flights); traveling out of the country can pose issues if health concerns arise and she identified the right travel insurance to meet our needs. But it did not end there! Kate checked on us prior to us departing, while in Colombia and before our return. We are planning a Hawaii trip, and we will use Kate to assist us with that trip! We highly recommend working with Kate!

We contacted Kate and booked our Puerto Vallarta trip in 24 hours! Once we established our budget, Kate quickly shared three great all-inclusive resort options. She was attentive to detail and understood what we wanted out of our spring break trip. We're excited for our adventure!

Working with Kate was an incredible experience from start to finish. From our very first conversation to the final booking of our trip, everything went seamlessly. We had complete confidence in Kate’s ability to deliver a wide range of options that perfectly matched our budget and preferences. She went above and beyond, digging deep to find us the best deals and even suggesting additional activities to make our trip the best it can be! Kate truly stands out for her dedication and care. If you’re looking for someone who will make your travel dreams come true or simply take the stress out of planning, I can’t recommend her enough. She’s nothing short of amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with her work!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kate to book a trip to Tortola for my best friend's wedding. Kate was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, ensuring that every detail was perfect. When we decided to extend our adventure and island hop to St. Thomas, Kate seamlessly assisted us with the arrangements. Her knowledge, professionalism, and dedication made our trip unforgettable. I highly recommend Kate for anyone looking to plan a stress-free and enjoyable vacation!

Kate was very approachable and listened to my concerns. As a senior citizen with some medical issues I found she listened to me and addressed the concerns such as needing a wheelchair in the airport. She found disability seating for me on the flight which was a tremendous help. At our destination she also found accommodations suitable for me and found transportation on the island as well. She set me up for a wonderful travel experience.

Excellent

Amazing! Kate listened to what we wanted to see and do and made it even more than we could have imagined. It was a trip of a lifetime. Would totally use Kate again and so should you!

Kate was a true joy to work with on our recent travel plans! We found her to be knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She helped us find the best deals available and answered questions we didn't even know to ask. We would highly recommend her to anyone making travel plans, be they big or small. We will use her again with our own future travel arrangements.

Working with Kay was easy and satisfying. She gave me great recommendations offered so many options and got me a great deal and with excellent value. I will work with Kate on all of my future vacation plans. She also took care of my mom who is joining us on the trip, the whole process was wonderful .

I am not a seasoned traveler, so I had a million questions for Kate! I stress when I travel, but Kate answered everything and guided me and my family from start to finish. She went up and beyond??

Kate and her team made our destination wedding experience unforgettable! We requested to have the wedding in Tortola, BVI and Kate was on top of everything. From booking our full guest list flights and hotels to accommodate everyone’s personal needs, finding the perfect private beach to get married, providing us with a diverse range of fun activities for everyone on the trip to enjoy. Kate made the whole experience run seamlessly and her connections throughout the islands are second to none. Having saved us all thousands of dollars, her detail and insight was able to help us with all the headaches that destination weddings can bring. For example we had our photographer miss a flight due to a hurricane and she not only helped us find a new one on the island but assisted us in getting the refund from the photographers flight and hotel. Even the drivers she provided for our large group were always on time and very professional. Kate went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable.

We contacted Kate to assist us with planning our real estate team annual reward trip to Mexico. She was very helpful in suggesting various resorts that might fit our needs. Once we decided on our destination, we simply gave her the information for all attending (12 people) and she took care of the rest including resort accommodations, flights, travel to and from the airport and even assisting with booking dinners. She is great at communication and made planning a trip for a large group effortless! We will definitely be using her for our team trip in 2025! Highly recommend!

Super knowledgeable, incredibly caring, a great advocate

When I first contacted Kate she was very enthusiastic about the trip. I explained to her I wanted to take. She gave me two choices for cruises. I picked one and she explained to me about the cruise. Whenever I had a question I could call her anytime! She was very knowledgeable about discounts etc. She followed up 3 days into the cruise, and afterwards to see how it went. She was with me every step of the way. Since it was our first cruise.

I’ve been collaborating with Kate to plan a family trip to Antigua, and I have to say, she has truly exceeded my expectations. Having worked with many agents before, I can confidently say that Kate stands out for her professionalism and efficiency. She is incredibly responsive and offered valuable suggestions I hadn’t even considered, thanks to her firsthand experience at some of the resorts I was interested in. Her insights have been absolutely priceless!

Kate was very helpful. She always found an answer to our questions and was very fast with the answer.

Kate John is an excellent travel agent because she listens. She was able to book our family cruise and air fare that meet our needs and wants. It can be a challenge to coordinate a party of 11 to Alaska but she did it smoothly.

Kate did a great job listening to our needs and finding great options to meet them. She was very responsive and timely with any changes requested.

Kate is amazing! She planned the perfect flights and hotels for our trip. She is prompt, professional and showed so much enthusiasm! What a great experience.

Kate helped us book our first trip ever to Cabo. She was unbelievably responsive with everything. We will definitely work with her again in the near future.

Kate is very helpful and goes out of her way to find information to ensure you have a wonderful trip!

Kate was very helpful and professional. She helped find us a place for a family vacation with alot of asks. Her expertise was great. We have a family that all liked different things and she found a place that will give us all of it. She did a great job! We strongly recommend her for your next location. We will be using her for all of our future travels moving forward.

It was very easy to work with Kate. She is very knowledgeable about flights, finding the best flight for me, tips on traveling, etc.

Kate was so helpful in helping plan all the details of our trip.

Very friendly, honest, took time to listen what trip I wanted and to get me the best deal.

She has been very friendly, and helpful. Se gets back promptly when we ask questions or need help.

So far Kate has planned 2 vacations for my family and me. She is wonderful to work with, taking the stress and second guessing away. She found several options within my price range fitting our desires, broke down expenses, and handled getting both tripped booked. We can’t wait for both trips!

My wife and I are inexperienced travelers, and we finally decided to take a big trip together. But we needed help with finding the right destination and with booking the flights. We tried a couple other agents and they seemed to get frustrated with our inexperience and all of our questions. Kate was our third agent we tried and instead of us asking her questions she was asking us questions, and made us feel that someone was helping us. And she was a huge help and we feel we got the exact vacation we were looking for, a relaxing one with plenty of activities to enjoy. Kate was also a huge help with our flights especially, after they were booked and a problem arose with our connecting flight and we needed to make some changes, she jumped right into action, gave us 3 different possibilities for us to choose from and gave us the pros and cons of each. She is great! My wife and I would recommend her to anyone, no hesitation!

Kate saved my marriage. My wife and I set up our perfect cruise. We had it reserved all we had to do is confirm our work schedule, which we did, and send it our deposit, which I forgot. We I remembered I went back and the all the balcony cabins were booked. I got a reference from a friend that I should talk with Kate. I did, and some how she was able to reserve us a balcony cabin that was even better than what we reserved. All we have to do now is wait, relax and enjoy the cruise. Thanks Kate!!!!

It was such a pleasure working with you. You really listened to my requests and my medical issues. This means a lot to someone with special needs. This will be a trip of a lifetime for me and I’m thrilled you did the planning .

Kate did an amazing job booking my 5-week trip to Tanzania! The flight and stay itinerary ended up being more complex than I could have done myself, after she took the time to ask the important questions and understand my expectations.
Her 5 star review was well earned after Kate took my frantic 7am call from the Amsterdam airport (2am Central) to help me overcome an unexpected flight change and make sure that my trip went without issues.

Knows cruises. If she doesn't have the answer to a question, she finds it.

Kate was a good listener to my wants and needs. She was a big help in booking our Viking Expedition Cruise and knew the right questions to ask them along the way.

Kate recently booked a trip to Cabo for us. She was unbelievably quick at responding and giving us different options. I would definitely recommend contacting her if you have upcoming travel plans.

Kate is amazing! I am going on my first international trip, and she was so knowledgable and encouraging! I felt so much better having her help with booking flights and getting travel insurance. Great first experience with a travel agent, and I will definitely work with her again!

Kate is an absolute joy to work with. She was very patient with any questions I had. She is truly excited to help you plan your trip, your way.

Our trip to Las Vegas, booked through Getaways by KJ, was simply amazing! From start to finish, Kate took care of every detail, ensuring an unforgettable experience. The accommodations were fantastic and KJ's expertise made the entire trip stress-free. We highly recommend Getaways by KJ for anyone looking to have an exceptional vacation. Thank you, KJ, for an amazing Las Vegas adventure!
