Incredible trip to africa
Reviewed By DenMan - Austin, TX | Traveled to Africa
My wife and I visited Africa in 2024 and Selena was the master mind behind this vacation. We had a few countries that we absolutely needed to hit and she did an incredible job planning out not just the best way of getting to each of them but did a great job of keeping us informed on customs for ever country we visited. My wife and I travel a lot and film everything we do. I typically bring my drone with me but had no clue that drones are illegal in Egypt, which was only one of the 4 countries we planed for. Well Selena found a work around which was to mail our drone to the hotel of our last stop so that I didn’t get it confiscated and could still use it for most of our trip. She did such a great job of planning out our daily activities but what really meant the most was her ability to make us feel safe and secure during our entire trip. If I had a question she already had an answer, even if it was 3am back in the states. Couldn’t have picked a better person for our trip.
Selena Malone responded
"Thank you so much for the kind words! It was an absolute pleasure helping you and your wife plan such an epic trip across Africa. I know how important filming is to your travels, so I’m especially glad we found a workaround for your drone and kept everything running smoothly. Multi-country trips come with lots of moving parts, but knowing you felt safe, informed, and taken care of means everything to me. Can’t wait to help with the next adventure!"

Such an exciting Island Aventure
Reviewed By Island traveler - South Windsor, Ct | Traveled to Grand Cayman | Cayman Islands | Caribbean
Originally we asked Selena to research hotels in Puerto Rico for my husband and I to get away for the weekend and she did it incredibly fast, listening to all our wishes and found the exact location. However we decided to switch gears and go for a longer vacation to the Grand Caymans. Selena was able to quickly pivot and find us the perfect hotel and fun exciting activities on this beautiful island. Selena is very resourceful and listened to exactly what I was looking for in our vacation getaway. We won’t book a vacation without help guidance again.

"Thank you so much for your kind words! I loved working with you on this trip—whether it was the quick weekend getaway to Puerto Rico or the pivot to Grand Cayman, I’m so glad we found the perfect fit. It means a lot that you felt heard and taken care of throughout the process. I can’t wait to help plan your next escape!"

Around the clock responsive and supportive
Reviewed By Bric - Connecticut | Traveled to Norway | Europe
Selena was always responsive and supportive throughout the planning and experience of our trip. There were a few issues with some of the suppliers but thankfully I was able to figure things out before they were issues. Selena brought my feedback to the suppliers so they can adjust their practices accordingly.
Selena Malone responded
"Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure planning your bespoke trip to Norway for the Northern Lights. I appreciate your patience and feedback, and I’m glad we were able to ensure everything went smoothly. Your insights are invaluable, and I’ve already shared them with the suppliers to help refine their services. I hope you made incredible memories, and I’d love to help plan your next adventure when the time comes!"

Japan and Thailand Honeymoon
Reviewed By Connor and Sarah - Philadelphia | Traveled to Japan | East and Southeast Asia
Selena was wonderful to work with! She helped plan our itinerary in Japan/thailand which was thoughtfully curated and gave us the off the beaten path feel we looked for when exploring a new country. She was our first travel agent used for a trip and I would highly recommended and use her services again! Still thankful for all the tips and information for navigating trains and the offline resources provided in the itinerary.

Jam packed Italy!
Reviewed By C Straub - Brookfield, CT | Traveled to Italy | Europe
It was a great trip help setup by Selena. Planning a trip isnt easy but the true test is what do you do when something goes wrong and on our trip it did and Selena responded quickly and helped us. That alone I would recommend her services.
Selena Malone responded
"Thank you so much for this review! I had so much fun planning your getaway. You’re so right—travel is amazing, but things don’t always go perfectly. I’m really glad I was able to jump in quickly and help when that hiccup came up on your trip. That’s exactly why I do what I do—to make sure you feel taken care of, not just when we’re planning, but while you’re actually traveling too. I’m so grateful you trusted me with your vacation and can't wait to plan your next one when you are ready. "
