Girl's Italy trip.. Best time of our lives !
Reviewed By Kimberly - Dayton, Ohio | Traveled to Italy | Europe
I wanted to take a moment to share a HUGE thank you to Amanda for planning what can only be described as the perfect girls trip to Italy!
From start to finish, every detail was flawless—from the VRBO's, hotels, and charming local experiences, to the wine tasting @ De Ricci in Montepulciano, guided tour to the Vatican in Rome, to the absolute breathtaking charter boat tour along the Amalfi coast, and those once-in-a-lifetime moments that we’ll be talking about for years!!! You truly listened to what we were hoping for and somehow made it even better than we imagined!
Every day brought something new and exciting, and yet everything flowed so smoothly. We never had to worry about transportation, tickets, or logistics—just soak in the beauty, the food, and the laughs with each other.
You made this dream trip not only possible, but unforgettable. I’ve already recommended you to several friends, and I’ll absolutely be reaching out again for the next adventure!
With sincere gratitude,
Ki

The surprise engagement for our daughter in Italy
Reviewed By TeamTaylor - Richmond VA | Traveled to Italy | Europe
My husband and I had the incredible opportunity to surprise our daughter with an engagement celebration in enchanting Italy. From the moment we landed, she effortlessly navigated us through the labyrinth of transportation options, ensuring our journey was seamless. We traveled from the romantic canals of Venice to the breathtaking hills of Tuscany, each destination more stunning than the last.
Throughout our adventure, Amanda was our guiding light. She was there with us every step of the way, patiently fielding calls and answering our myriad of questions, making us feel at ease in a foreign land. Thank you, Amanda, for embodying the role of not just a travel agent but a trusted member of our family. You've become an integral part of our lives, and we will always turn to YOLO for our travel needs. I can’t wait to reach out soon to plan our next unforgettable adventure!

Euro Blast!
Reviewed By Rick - Iowa | Traveled to France | Europe
My daughter and nephew had a blast on their European Vacation. YOLO Vacations arranged all their hotel stays in each country (France, Chech Republic, Greece, and Italy) and in some great hotels that were not overpriced and she found great rates for their round trip tickets from the States! Awesome trip! That didn’t break the bank account!

The most amazing trip
Reviewed By Angie - Schertz, TX | Traveled to Bali | Indonesia | East and Southeast Asia
Amanda planned the most unforgettable Bali experience for us! From visiting Lempuyang Temple and the breathtaking Tirta Gangga Water Palace to the jungle swing, giant bird’s nest, and coffee plantation tour where we even made our own coffee — every detail was perfectly curated. Our private transportation made everything seamless, and staying at the stunning InterContinental Bali Resort was the cherry on top. The food, the views, the experiences — absolutely amazing.
Amanda didn’t just book a trip… she created memories we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommend!

Reviewed By EdsTheZombie - San Antonio, TX | Traveled to Antigua & Barbuda | Caribbean
From the the day we began planning, to the day we boared, Amanda was responsive, kept a careful watch on price changes, and was over all a pleasure to work with. She reached out whenever there was a special on excursions, dinners, etc. She presented many options for overnight stays and flights if we needed. We we're so happy, we booked another cruise while still on the ship and of course with our favorite travel agent. Thanks Amanda!!!

We are now cruisers!
Reviewed By Tara - San Antonio, Texas | Traveled to Mexico
Knowing that Amanda is an experienced world traveler with a ton of cruise expertise, we instantly felt confident turning to her for help. From the very beginning — choosing the right cruise line to selecting the best location on the ship — she guided us so smoothly and set our trip up for success from day one.
Throughout the entire process, she made sure we always knew what the next step was, and anytime we had a question, she was right there to help.
Unfortunately, we had some unexpected medical concerns come up and thought we’d have to cancel our trip. Amanda immediately jumped in, helped us research our options, and sent everything we needed to work with our credit card company. She made sure we had all the right information and told us to let her know when to move forward.
Thankfully, there was a schedule change about three weeks before departure, and with doctor clearance, we were able to go after all — and we enjoyed the most amazing, long-awaited honeymoon.
Not only is Amanda always available when you need her, but her personal travel experience truly shines through. Chances are, she’s already been on the cruise you’re asking about! Her knowledge, willingness to help, and fun, caring personality make her an absolutely top-notch travel agent. She genuinely aims to please — and it shows.

WAY TO GO YOLO
Reviewed By Taylornation - Sandston | Traveled to Mexico
2nd time using AMANDA, YOLO, you out do yourself everytime. We requested a hotel close and pay to park.. You nailed it, parked car for cheap, stayed at amazing hotel, and the car showed up at exactly 1100, then you said faster to Fun, I wasn't a fan but I did then.… boom got to port and I dropped bags off and ordered a Rita at 11:49. I won't use anyone else, YOLO, please plan my 50 birthday .

Amanda planned our Tahitian cruise on Windstar to include a few nights stay ahead at Hilton Moorea Resort. From start to finish, all details to include some adjustments due to local holidays were executed flawlessly by Amanda. We had the time of our lives cruising around French Polynesia and it’s all because of Amanda. Our 4-year anniversary trip was one we will never forget and will be hard to beat next year.

The best of Italy!
Reviewed By Melissa O - Crozet Virginia | Traveled to Italy | Europe
I cannot thank Amanda enough for all she did to ensure our vacation was perfect; 5 women traveling. Planning sessions were most helpful so as to assure that we could plan the number of days in each city and identify the priority excursions and tours. Her knowledge, guidance, and ticketing of transportation services such as trains, ferries, taxies, etc. assured that we maximized our time for enjoying each city/town, and all travel went smoothly.
VRBO accommodations that Amanda secured were spectacular! Each one with the “vibe” of the town or region we were in. She assured that we were positioned close to points of interest and with easy access to public transportation. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. We flew into Naples, stayed in Pazzuoli ( even experienced an 4.4 earthquake!), and took the ferry to Capri for a day. From there we traveled to Rome, Florence, Montepulciano, then back to Naples and Pompeii. The last days were spent on the Amalfi coast and stayed in a hidden gem

She even left us a beautiful thank you in our stateroom. I can’t recommend Amanda enough! She does a lot of traveling herself, so she definitely knows, firsthand, what she’s talking about. Be sure to book with YOLO!

We recently worked with Amanda to plan our annual family trip (long overdue family vacation) for a 4-night cruise! After discussing our vision for this trip, we managed to squeeze in Disney World on top, and that put the icing on the cake.
