Alaska here we come!
Reviewed By Kalli C. - Ione, CA | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to go on an Alaskan cruise, and I normally revisit the option annually but never pull the trigger. With the help of Retha, not only did I gain the confidence to book the trip of a lifetime for my next birthday, but she located an incredible deal which enabled me to secure a second lifelong dream: bringing my hard working parents along who also have always wanted to see Alaska. Now we get to look forward to taking a family vacation for the first time as adults, which has its challenges as my parents have never traveled internationally (departing from Canada). Retha continues to help navigate all the questions and tasks leading up to the big day, which is so valuable and comforting. Her support allows me to fully enjoy the excitement leading up to the trip of a lifetime. If you’ve held back on booking that dream experience, Retha is the one to help make them happen. Stop waiting.

First trip outside US!
Reviewed By Theladyv - New York | Traveled to Prague | Czech Republic | Europe
Retha helped me create a last minute European holiday vacation for me and my family which includes a 20 year old and 15 year old!! She found us a perfect apartment where everyone had plenty of space and privacy but also had space for us to be together. Her recommendations and itinerary planning was perfect! Our viator tours were excellent and her dinner recommendations on a during holiday hours were impeccable!

A Fabulous trip that was so easy.
Reviewed By Solo girl - GA | Traveled to Scotland | Europe
From the moment I contacted Retha about doing a trip to Scotland she made everything so easy for me. She asked questions to help me figure out my priorities for what I wanted to do and came up with great activities for me. She got me into wonderful hotels in the cities I visited and checked on me throughout the trip to make sure everything was going well. I really appreciated her thoughtfulness in curating this trip. One of the best and easiest trips I’ve ever taken

New York Staycation
Reviewed By MJS-GAN2025 - San Francisco CA | Traveled to New York City | New York | USA
I recently worked with Retha to plan a 3 day trip to New York City for myself and my niece, and it was absolutely fantastic! Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making the experience stress-free and unforgettable.
The itinerary included two incredible Broadway shows that were perfectly chosen for us, and the seats were amazing. We also enjoyed a food tour through Chinatown and Little Italy, which was a highlight of the trip. Delicious food, rich history, and a knowledgeable guide who made it so much fun.
From start to finish, Retha was professional, responsive, and truly listened to what we wanted. The trip felt personalized and well-balanced, with just the right mix of activities and downtime. I can’t recommend Retha enough for anyone looking to plan a memorable NYC adventure!

I wouldn’t be here if not for Retha
Reviewed By Princess Cheddar - Calais, VT | Traveled to New Zealand | Australia & New Zealand
I’ve wanted to backpack New Zealand for over a decade, but an excuse to not was always present. I came to Retha when I decided I’d waited long enough but couldn’t wrap my head around all the logistics or timing. She created an itinerary that got me on the plane & off walking without a hitch & a year sooner than I thought possible.
She was available to answer questions and gave me advice that has made this a phenomenal experience.
Shy of actually carrying my bag or cooking my food there is little else I wanted for.
Not that I have any other travel ideas now, but I know who I’ll go to when I do.

Seamless Disneyland Planning
Reviewed By Gio - Seattle, WA | Traveled to Disneyland | California | USA
I reached out to Retha based on online reviews I read and she lived up to the comments. Super responsive, got back to me immediately on initial outreach, helped navigate the planning and getting around for our Disneyland trip. I hadn’t been in 35 years and we brought our 7 year old for the first time for his birthday, and glad we reached out to Retha. It’s so different now she gave great tips and arranged all our reservations. She even helped out when we reached out during our trip. Thanks so much Retha! We’ll definitely reach out again on our next Disney trip.

Easiest trip planning ever
Reviewed By Bri - Milwaukee, WI | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
I used to be someone that did all of the research for my trips and scoured the internet for deals and suggestions for things to do. However, after having Retha as my travel agent, I don’t think I’ll ever do that again! Retha made the planning so easy and she definitely came through with the Disney deals, tips, and tricks. She was even available during my trip to secure lightning lanes for additional days and to answer any quick questions I had on the fly. Thank you Retha for the easiest Disney World trip I’ve ever had!

Great anniversary trip!
Reviewed By PianoGirl - Atlanta, GA | Traveled to West Virginia | USA
Retha was great to work with. We wanted to go somewhere new for our 31st anniversary. She suggested New River Gorge, which we'd never even heard of, and it was perfect. She also booked the activities we were interested in and sent us an itinerary, which made things really easy for us. Would definitely recommend her (and have!).

Alaska Dreams Come True
Reviewed By KC - California | Traveled to Alaska | USA
I told Retha over a year ago my desire to visit Alaska and have my parents come along to celebrate their wedding anniversary (now over 40 years!). The service, food, and weather couldn’t be beat. She checked in with us to make sure things were going well throughout the vacation and put a ton of effort into making sure it was the best for us - from gifts in the room to thoughtful suggestions. It was a lifetime moment for sure, this trip, and I appreciate all her support to help make it a beautiful one

Disneyland dream
Reviewed By Mlt4631 - Jersey City, NJ | Traveled to Disneyland | California | USA
I absolutely loved working with Retha to plan our first trip to Disneyland. We are experienced WDW travelers, but had never been to Disneyland, and decided to go for my birthday earlier this year. Retha was incredibly helpful in giving us advice, suggesting rides, places to eat, and even behind-the-scenes tips and tricks. She got us all of the reservations we wanted, including a reservation at Trader Sam’s on my actual birthday! She was so helpful, but not overbearing and I still felt like it was “my” vacation. I’d recommend working with Retha to anyone.

Amazing Trip
Reviewed By Holly&Will - Hamburg, NY | Traveled to Alaska | USA
Retha planned an Alaskan cruise for us and my parents. It was my mom’s dream trip and Retha made sure the whole thing went off without a hitch! She made the planning so easy, made sure we were on the side of the ship to have the best views, and made sure we chose the best excursions. Can’t wait to have her help us plan another trip! Highly recommend!

Je t'aime Retha
Reviewed By Clare - Alexandria, VA | Traveled to Paris | France | Europe
I had the pleasure of meeting Retha a couple years ago and I knew she was the person to talk to if I wanted a wonderful, fun-filled travel itinerary. She planned a great vacation in Paris for me and 3 friends. We experienced a perfect mix of culinary indulgences and cultural history. Lots of fun was had and I highly recommend her.
