With these experiences, I know what it takes to plan an unforgettable trip.I’m passionate about making travel easy, exciting, and stress-free for families, couples, and solo adventurers alike.
Whether you’re dreaming of a magical Disney vacation, a tropical getaway, or an international adventure, I’m here to help with expert advice and seamless planning. I also speak Spanish, making it easy to assist travellers in both English and Spanish.

Anniversary trip
Reviewed By Gracefully_me - Antioch, ca | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Angela has been amazing from my first email to her. She really made the planning an easy process. I didn’t know what to expect with a travel agent, but Angela was very easy to talk to and she was very knowledgeable. Great customer service! I had to email her in the middle of our trip for a water fiasco and she guided me to what to do! Thank you, Angela!!

Philippines family trip booked!
Reviewed By MR.SU - Vancouver, BC | Traveled to Manila | Philippines | East and Southeast Asia
We had a wonderful experience working with Angela Van Tijn for our family vacation to the Philippines. From the moment we reached out, Angela was incredibly responsive and attentive. She took the time to listen to our plans and suggested thoughtful accommodations that were perfectly suited to our family’s needs.
Angela also helped us find the ideal flight bundle, making the entire booking process smooth and stress free. Her knowledge, efficiency, and care truly stood out. We felt well supported every step of the way.
Highly recommend Angela Van Tijn to anyone planning a trip and looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and personable travel agent.

10 stars for Angela!!
Reviewed By Courtnay&Ryan - Niagara Falls, Ontario | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
Angela helped us book a vacation in Jamaica. Then came the hurricane and we had to change plans as Air Transat cancelled us. Angela was amazing from start to finish. Hours on the phone assisting with our refund from the airline to helping us find a new destination. I cannot recommend her enough. Angela found us a deal in the Bahamas and off we went thanks to her! She saved our vacation and we had a great time. Responsive and always there for anything you need. Angela is truly the best as what she does. Highly recommend!!

Angela was amazing! she planned my first trip to Africa! She was a rockstar in all including the communications (made lot of questions) and ensure I had an incredible experience.
