Caring Agent
Reviewed By Paula S - Fall River, MA | Traveled to Canada
Melissa is such a sweet and caring agent. She went above and beyond to find what my husband I were looking for in Canada. She made sure to share all pertinent websites about customs so we wouldn’t be surprised at the border. I cannot recommend this young lady enough.

Best trip was Las Vegas.
Reviewed By Big E - Somserset MA 02725 | Traveled to Las Vegas ~ Nevada ~ USA
Her knowledge of places to see at specific times are second to none. While we were in Vegas, she took her time to make an agenda for us. She knew everything about Las Vegas from the old to the famous Vegas strip. Even scored 2 limo rides.

Our amazing trip!
Reviewed By Rachel P - Berkley, Ma | Traveled to St. Lucia ~ Caribbean
I was trying to plan a trip for my daughter’s 30th birthday and was unsure where to go. I contacted Melissa ,because I wanted this vacation to be extremely special. My time was limited, so Melissa researched everything and gave me multiple options with multiple price ranges. I decided to go with St. Lucia staying at the Sandal’s Grande resort. This was my best vacation by far because I worked with Melissa. She did all the research for me found the best pricing and was available anytime to answer any questions or make changes (which I did a few times). I was impressed with her attention to detail and follow through. She prepared an amazing document for us with everything we needed. We were in touch frequently leading up to the vacation and she even assisted with excursions. In addition she contacted me before my departures and after my arrivals to confirm I didn’t need any additional assistance. I highly recommend Melissa and will use her again for all my travel needs.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

She's the absolute best So if anyone is thinking about a vacation please reach out to her! She is so easy to work with, very quick to respond and diligent in her work. The countdown begins

Sailing Success!
Thanks to Amorosa Travel, our sailing adventure with my loved one has been unforgettable! Special shoutout to Missy who made sure everything went smoothly during planning phase . Do other agents take time out their busy day just so passengers know they care by checking up multiple times from departure until return?
Liz Carvalho, Fall River, MA
Las Vegas Amazement!
The best trip by far was planned out by Missy Furtado. She booked the plane and hotel which was totally amazing. The Paris Hotel is a sight to be seen. She took it upon herself to even have a itinerary down to the minute to eat and sight see some of Las Vegas's hot spots and eateries at the right time of day. Make her a priority to book with her and ask questions. She's there to help you ease your mind and enjoy your stay.
