Puerto Rico..El Yunque rainforest.
Reviewed By none - Basking Ridge,NJ | Traveled to Puerto Rico | USA
From planning all the way through to returning home, Amanda was involved. Our itinerary changed a bit while we were there, and Amanda rescheduled tours for us. She even texted me when we landed in Newark and we were at the baggage carousel! I am already working with Amanda on an international trip. I have recommended her to friends.

The Scottish Vacation of my dreams
Reviewed By AwesomeAmanda - Los Angeles, CA | Traveled to Scotland | Europe
I cannot express how wonderful Amanda is. First off, she is so sweet, but she really knows her stuff. Amanda was able to plan the vacation of my dreams. From the bustling streets of Edinburgh, to the picturesque views of St. Andrews, to the majestic Scottish Highlands and lastly our stop in the beast of London.... Amanda provided us with every single thing that we wanted to see/do on our vacation. Including setting us up in the KINGS Suite at a CASTLE! yes, an actual Castle... This was my first time Crossing the Pond, and Amanda made sure that our itinerary was full and complete, but one of the BEST things about Amanda is that she is with you through your entire vacation. If anything would have gone wrong (thankfully nothing did) she would have handled it for us. I cannot express my gratitude Amanda, for making this the vacation of my dreams. If you need a Travel Agent, look no further than Amanda! Thank you again!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing Experience with Such a Supportive Travel Agent
Reviewed By slagrange - Queen Creek, AZ | Traveled to Hawaii | USA
Amanda helped plan a surprise trip to Hawaii, our trip included all of the amenities plus several excursions and we could not wait for the trip. Hawaii had a unfortunate storm while we were traveling but Amanda always made her self available completely re-doing our whole plan to make sure we could still have the best time regardless of the weather. This was above and beyond the level of support that I could ever expect. We are so grateful for all of the support and I cannot wait to book my next trip with her for later this year.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Bucket list Ireland Trip!
Reviewed By KRT501 - Mobile, AL | Traveled to Ireland | Europe
Ever since I can remember, I have wanted to go to Ireland. When I finally decided to make that dream a reality and set a date, I quickly realized I needed the help of a professional. Amanda came highly recommended by a friend, so I sent her an email, and she responded immediately. Amanda took the time to truly understand what I wanted. She asked thoughtful questions about my expectations, goals, and budget. I told her I only had two “must-haves”…a visit to the Cliffs of Moher and a stay in a castle. Beyond that, I was completely open to her suggestions. She handled everything, flights, car rental, and hotels, and provided a detailed, day-by-day suggested itinerary. The accommodations were fantastic, and our stay at Dromoland Castle was truly unforgettable. We rode in a horse-drawn carriage, and I even participated in falconry. My sister said she had never seen me smile so much. It was cold and rainy when we arrived at the Cliffs of Moher, but fate smiled on us as the skies cleared. It was magnificent. We laughed nonstop as the strong winds nearly knocked us over. It was an absolute highlight of the trip. We stayed in Ireland for six nights, arriving on Sunday, October 26, and returning home on Saturday, November 1. Amanda had warned me ahead of time that Ireland offers so much that six nights would feel short, and she was right. We stayed in a different location each night. If I were to do it again, I would definitely plan to stay two nights in each location instead of one. Many of the local shops close earlier than they do in the U.S., so by the time we traveled, checked in, and settled, some of the quaint stores were already closing. Thankfully, there was always a pub open! I will absolutely reach out to Amanda again for future travel. I’ve already recommended her to a friend, and she planned an incredible trip to Spain for her and her husband. Amanda is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly gifted at creating unforgettable travel experiences.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
