Complicated Cruise Booking
Reviewed By Denise H - Red Deer | Traveled to Panama Canal ~ Panama ~ Central America
Shiel was amazing as my travel agent, handling a complicated cruise booking with ease! She navigated itinerary changes, cabin preferences, and special requests like a pro, making what could have been stressful completely seamless.

Her expertise with Princess Cruises and the destination was clear, and she even secured perks I didn’t expect. Shiel’s attention to detail and proactive communication ensured every aspect of our trip was perfectly planned.

If you’re looking for a travel agent who takes the hassle out of planning and truly cares about your experience, I can’t recommend Shiel enough!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing and kind! Exceptional from start to finish
Reviewed By Desiree - Calgary | Traveled to Sedona | Arizona | USA
We recently worked with Shiel at Champagne & Promises Travel to plan our dream destination wedding and honeymoon, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we started planning, Shiel took care of every detail, making the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. Our wedding Sedona was absolutely breathtaking—everything from the venue, decor, and catering to the little personal touches was exactly what we envisioned. Shiel coordinated seamlessly with the resort, ensuring our guests had a smooth experience from booking to arrival. For our honeymoon, we embarked on a luxury cruise to the Mexican Riviera, and it was pure bliss. From helping us choose the perfect itinerary, with romantic excursions in Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, and Mazatlán. The ship was stunning, and we had a suite with incredible ocean views, priority reservations, and even a few special surprises along the way! If you’re looking for a travel advisor who truly listens, understands, and deliv
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Humor through Chaos
Reviewed By Scott D - Airdrie, AB | Traveled to Ireland ~ Europe
Shiel was an absolute superstar managing our group travel to Ireland & Scotland! Herding our group of travelers was no easy feat (it was like organizing cats with passports), but Shiel made it look effortless. Even when the supplier threw us a few curveballs, she handled it quickly and calmly—like a travel ninja armed with spreadsheets and charm.
From flights to accommodations and all our quirky requests (yes, someone did ask about goat yoga in Dublin), Shiel made sure everything was seamless. Thanks to her expertise and quick problem-solving, we could relax and enjoy the trip without any stress.

If you need a travel agent who’s resourceful, reliable, and can laugh through the chaos, Shiel is your person!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Corporate Account Management
Reviewed By Darren G - Calgary | Traveled to USA
I have used Shiel for all my business arrangements, including hotel, car rentals and flights. I just started travelling regularly for work and was not sure where to start but Shiel made it so simple. All I do now is send her my dates and she has all my information and it is booked before I even finish my day. I love how easy it is, she is extremely professional and definitely knows what she is doing.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Calgary to Cozumel Seamlessly
Reviewed By MR - Red Deer, AB | Traveled to Cozumel ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
When my passport didn't come in on time due to a long weekend, Shiel was able to rebook flights, transfers, ferry and cabs that got me to Cozumel from Calgary at short notice in order to attend a wedding.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
