Darby was quite responsive. Since we were taking a tour run by Odysseys-Unlimited, all materials went from them to Darby who then quickly forwarded the materials to us. She helped with the air arrangements (although we had done the research before talking with her).

Fantastic getaway for two!
Reviewed By Jane G - Plainville, MA | Traveled to Portugal ~ Europe
Darby did a fantastic job incorporating my husband's work trip requirements with a few extra days of vacation just for us. Although we started out with flight cancelations due to weather and re-booking chaos at the airport, Darby was immediately available and was able to work her magic and get us to Lisbon on another airline - and only 7 hours later than originally scheduled. The rest of the trip was seamless. The two half-day Tours by Locals for wine tasting and daytrip to Sintra were exactly what we wanted them to be which is the beauty of a private guide. Darby even found a cooking class for us that was one of the trip highlights. The resort she found for us was perfectly located and lovely in all aspects. We wished we had more time at the resort to just relax, but there were too many places we wanted to see before leaving - the rental car worked out great as well! We would love to go back for more touring and relaxing/golf. Needless to say, we would enlist Darby's services again!

Darby worked with us on all the arrangements and was very responsive answering our questions. She made suggestions which we integrated into our plans.

Unique Europe Vacation Excellence
Reviewed By Jen - Foxboro, MA | Traveled to Germany ~ Europe
My experience working with Darby was fabulous. She handled all of the details helping me create a unique personalized vacation.
It was my first trip alone to Europe, so I was unsure of what to expect. Darby walked me through each step of the trip from planning what I wanted to do, finding the best options for travel, hotels, excursions, and transfers from station to station. Before I left, we had a wonderful one-on-one review where she answered all of my questions.
Throughout the trip, she kept an eye on my journey, reminding me to check in for flights, and generally being there. It was reassuring to have someone ready to help in any situation.
Finally the trip was one I will never forget. She was able to combine personal interests with visiting family and relatives. I didn't have to worry about anything. All I had to do was show up and enjoy the experience.
I highly recommend Darby and Darby's Destinations for anyone wishing to create a unique customized vacation.

Fantastic planning for our family trip!
Reviewed By Lisa - Foxboro, MA | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Darby spent a lot of time not only picking a location that would work for our family's needs, but, then taking care of every detail to ensure a fantastic vacation! This was our first family trip to Mexico and I was quite nervous about all of the details and I contacted Darby frequently to check on many things. She took the time to go over everything with me and even adjusted our dates of the trip which needed to be changed - always with a very relaxed demeanor. Also, we mistakenly mixed up the dates for one of our excursion while in Mexico and when we contacted Darby, she took care of arranging an alternate date for us! This experience would not have nearly been as great without her planning - the flights, location, resort and all excursions couldn't have been better!

Maui Family Vacation

We had a wonderful family vacation to Maui and Honolulu which was set up by Darby. She provided our family of five with a well planned trip including travel to and from the islands, a lei greeting when we stepped off the plane, an inter-island flight, and car service to and from the airport and to the Pearl Harbor Memorial. We did have one problem with the air conditioning at our Maui accommodations, but Darby was right there to coordinate with the resort management getting us a replacement, upgraded villa. What started as a once-in-a-lifetime trip has turned into, "we can't wait to go back." Thanks Darby!

Darby Saved the Day
Reviewed By Holly - Foxboro, MA | Traveled to Egypt ~ Africa
Darby is simply the best. My friend and I had planned the trip of a lifetime to cruise the Nile in Egypt in March 2022. COVID-19 made for many challenges, but Darby gave sound counsel and showed amazing patience with us as we wrangled flight arrangement and then ultimately decided we needed to cancel the trip. She dealt with the cruise line, which would not rebook or reimburse the full amount, and met with us multiple times to provide options and advice on our insurance policy. She is extremely professional and went above and beyond. The best decision I made was having her as my travel adviser. It would have been heck without her and going forward (especially as COVID may be here to stay in some capacity) I won't plan a trip without her. She's just that good.

Throughout the entire vacation planning process, Darby always went the extra mile in ensuring that our trip was expertly planned and coordinated! Upon our request, Darby was careful to ensure tour guides that would schedule our numerous points of interest in multiple countries. The Tours by Locals were all excellent, capturing the must-see sites, along with unique off-the-beaten-path discoveries. Our family experienced unforgettable cultural encounters in each country. Besides obtaining outstanding guides, Darby also expertly planned each detail of our adventure, from international to inter-European flights, train trips, hotel accommodations, and transfers. Darby's travel services are undoubtedly superior in allowing us to enjoy a highly complicated agenda, with a stress-free atmosphere of vacation planning.

Darby planned our entire trip to Paris and Normandy, France over Christmas and New Years. Darby was an absolute pleasure to work with and we let her totally take the reins in selection of hotel and airlines and tour selection. She took care of every little detail of planning our trip and it went flawlessly. From the selection of hotels to advice on how to best see the sites we wanted to visit, it was all perfect. While we were traveling, she even responded to emails from the hotel for us, taking care of early check-in logistics so we didnt have to. By the time I saw the emails, she had already taken care of it. She sent us all of our travel documents in a well organized binder (which we nicknamed "the Darby purse"), even with printed tags for our luggage. Everything we needed was in this binder, I never had to print a thing. She reminded us of things we needed to bring and made sure we had reservations for New Years dinner.

Another AMAZING Trip to Italy
Reviewed By Jane G - Plainville, MA | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Darby organized a trip to Italy for us around a previously scheduled Destination Wedding in Tuscany. Flights, transfers, restaurant reservations, and accommodations all worked out perfectly. Activities that we scheduled were fun with fantastic guides. We wanted to make a small change the schedule and having access to the local tour company and Darby was immensely helpful. We had a day with no plans built into the last location, which worked out well because our tour guide went to the ER that morning. We did not realize this at first, so we called the local tour agent. She figured out what had happened, and she was able to reschedule our biking plans to the "free day." Lesson learned is that being able to roll with the punches allows for more enjoyment in the end.

We really enjoyed working with Darby! She put together a fabulous itinerary for our trip to Rome and Florence. Prior to our departure we received a package from Darby that once again outlined and detailed everything we would be doing. My husband loved this! From drivers to private tours with professional tour guides, restaurant suggestions and hotels. It was wonderful to not have to think too much about anything and there was not one hiccup during the whole trip. I did have a quick question during the trip, emailed her and she was quick to respond. She also did not "over plan" our days, it was the perfect balance of fabulous siteseeing with the right amount of down time. We look forward to using Darby again in the future and would absolutely recommend her!

Once in a Lifetime - Africa Adventure
Reviewed By Leslie and her boys - Boston, MA | Traveled to South Africa ~ Africa
Darby was AMAZING she took her time to know exactly what me and my boys were looking for on our adventure to Africa. She coordinated calls with local affiliates in Africa to help organize, took us from planning to payment to our destination without one hiccup - and we had a lot of activities going on where something could have easily gone wrong (transfer, pick-up, hotel, agenda) and NOTHING went wrong, all went so smoothly. The hotels were beautiful and centrally located and the people she hooked us up with in Africa were amazing as well. This trip could not have been executed without her guidance and we are SO happy we chose to work with her. We are definitely looking forward to our next adventure planned by Darby's Destinations.
Thanks again Darby - you are certainly ONE OF A KIND and we appreciated all you did to give me and my boys (25 and 14) the experience of a lifetime.

Sensitive To Group Needs & Knowledgeable
Reviewed By Pastor Ted - Mansfield, MA | Traveled to
Darby helped find Washington, D.C. accommodations for our church youth while visiting the Nation's Capital. We were so very pleased with the hotel, air transportation and location that still met our fairly tight budgetary needs. Having a travel professional like Darby streamlines the search process because not only is she knowledgeable about the hotel and transportation industries, she takes the time to know the group's objectives, places those needs at the core of the planning, and builds the package around them. This equals success and satisfaction in my book. We trust Darby and she always does her very best to serve her clients. Couldn't be happier.

Paris France
Reviewed By Terry - Fairfield, CT | Traveled to
This is the second time that Darby put together a trip for myself and my family to Paris, France. Once again we had an absolutely spectacular time. Starting from the ease of communication with Darby which includes her patience with schedule changes and trip detail changes, everything needed for the trip was handled with ease and confidence. Her recommendations were awesome and included a highlight of our trip that I would not have known about and the hotels that she helped us choose were among the best in Paris for the value. Their locations ended up better than we could have imagined. She obviously loves what she does and puts a great deal of effort, time, and passion in her work. We simply cannot wait for our next trip!

Everything was great! Our family of 5 had an excellent time in Hawaii! Maui was beautiful. Our visit to Pearl Harbor, in Oahu, was fantastic due, in part, to the tour company. Our guide, John was awesome.
It's so nice to have a travel agent to guide you and support you through the process of choosing a great vacation. It's also good to have someone to advocate for you when you're traveling. If things aren't perfect, you don't need to worry or attend to any details ~ they take care of everything, THANKS DARBY:)

Awesome trip to The Windy City!!!!

Darby did a fantastic job researching our options for a trip to Chicago. We arrived at our hotel and she had sent a courtesy VIP letter introducing us to the hotel, and when we checked in they gave us free drink coupons because it was my husbands birthday while we were there.
She also took the extra time to look up and include some dining recommendations to popular restaurants on our itinerary, which saved us some time.
All in all we had a great trip and were very pleased with Darby's service. We will definitely be booking future vacations with Darby!!

Reviewed By Tom N - Milford, MA | Traveled to
Darby has worked with us on 2 fairly complext trips over the past 3 years (2013 and 2015). She is excellent at working with us on framing the trip, doing the research associated with finding high service providers that are cost effective. In addition, Darby has worked with us on making changes, as well as ensuring all details are in place and followed.
A key part of Darby's service is that she re-verifies with hotels and other services just prior to the trip and throughout the trip to ensure the customer is well taken care of.
Darby is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her.

Darby was instrumental in helping us plan a large group going to Beaches Turks and Caicos. She answered all of our questions (and with that size group there were lots) She was extremely knowledgeable about the resort and all of the accommodations. We had the misfortune of a missed connection home due to weather but Darby spent several hours that evening trying to assist us with hotels, shuttles home and re-booking flights for us the next day. She also assisted us in filing our insurance claim for our travel delay. She certainly went above and beyond making sure we had everything covered during our trip and coming home. I would highly recommend her for any of your travel needs we would have been lost without her.

Vegas Get Away
Reviewed By Trish - Foxboro, MA | Traveled to
My husband and I wanted to renew our 10th year wedding vows in Vegas. We usually book on our own or with AAA, but this time we went with Darby;s Destinations. It was so much easier and we really didn't have to do a thing. Darby did everything for u! She also sent a letter to the hotel manager before hand letting them know we were having our anniversary. As a result they seemed to take extra good care of us and bumped us to a nicer room. It was so easy having Darby book the hotel, flights and transportation to the hotel. She also made some great suggestions as where to go and what else to do while in Vegas. We knew if anything went wrong on our travels we could just pick up the phone and ask Darby for assistance. You can't get that when you book your own trip or with AAA. I highly suggest using darby's Destinations it you want to take a trip and leave the worries at home.

I contacted Darby for recommendations on where to stay and what to do for First Night in Boston this past year. Although it was a local trip lasting less than 24 hours, you might think it was a trek around Europe with the effort she put in.

My Travel Stories
Breisach, Germany, and the Enchanting Black Forest
Nestled gracefully along the picturesque Rhine River, Breisach is a charming gateway to the Black Forest, one of Germany's most storied landscapes. As our ship docked beside a quaint park, we were greeted by serene scenes of locals strolling and jogging while elegant swans glided gracefully on the water. Perched majestically on a hill, St. Steph...

Client Testimonials
Long awaited trip to Italy and Northern Ireland
Darby’s Destinations did a great job pulling together a trip that was two and half years delayed due to the pandemic. Darby pulled together a personalized trip of Italy and Ireland that exceeded expectations. We experienced a Game of Throne tour that we will never forget. She made sure all the little details and logistics were taken care of and all we had to do was have fun. Well done!

Memorable Trip to Maui
Thanks so much for reaching out! We had the most amazing and memorable trip to Maui. Thank you for all your help getting our accommodations, flights, and rental car arranged for this trip, we had the best time. The Four Seasons was just as dreamy as we had hoped and everything from the food to the service, the spa to the room exceeded expectations, and we can’t wait to go back again in the future.
All of the food we had on the trip was incredible, but both of us feel the meal that stands apart from the rest was Mama’s Fish House. If you have clients traveling to Maui in the future, we highly recommend trying to get a reservation here as early as possible.
We used your recommended app, the “Shaka Guide” for the self-guided Road to Hana tour and we would also recommend that to anyone doing the Road to Hana. It worked absolutely perfectly, helped us know exactly the best places to stop, and gave us just the right amount of history on Hawaii and the island.
Thanks, Darby!

Anniversary Adventure to Portugal
Our anniversary trip to Portugal surpassed all expectations and truly was the trip of a lifetime! Although we didn’t know specifically what we were looking for or where to visit, Darby made the planning process completely stress-free and prepared an itinerary that was perfectly matched to our interests. Furthermore, it was expertly executed and all we had to do was show up and enjoy as we were whisked away on private tours and to our hotels. Between transportation, hotels, and tours, we felt well cared for throughout our trip and everyone that we encountered was professional, welcoming and kind. We enjoyed every minute and are absolutely looking forward to working with Darby for our next vacation!
