First Europe Trip
Reviewed By Rae - Maple Ridge, BC | Traveled to Europe
Deborah help us plan my bucket list trip to Europe. We went to Germany, France, Belgium and Switzerland. Flights in and out of Paris were booked through Air France. Train travel was done through EURail and Eurostar. The Eurostar rail pass is the best way to go as it is very flexible. The hotels Deborah chose were great. Our stay in Liege, Belgium at the Van der Valk Hotel Liège Congres was her best choice for the breakfast buffet. It had so many different options than the others did. The hotel in Bremen, Germany was the Maritim Hotel Bremen. The suite was like an apartment and overlooked the park. When there was a fireworks display one night we had a perfect view. Deborah is excellent in communicating and listening to your requests. As well as suggesting things to see that you might not have thought of otherwise. This trip would not have been as amazing as it was without her help.

Edinburgh, Scotland

The Magic of the Edinburgh Festival & Tattoo

One of my best childhood memories was of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, and I recently got to relive this fabulous experience! Plus, I got to introduce my youngest son to the experience, as well, while spending time with family who live in Scotland.  Scotland at any time of year is a great place to be, but to immerse yourself in Scottish ...
