Honeymoon Trip
Reviewed By SaboC - Cleveland, OH | Traveled to Lisbon | Portugal | Europe
We truly have Vic's Vacations to thank for our amazing honeymoon. Katie curated a perfect itinerary for our Barcelona, Porto, and Lisbon trip. The app made it so easy to see our schedule for each day. I highly recommend this company and definitely plan to use them again

Italy Corporate Trip
Reviewed By LaurenCarter - Indianapolis | Traveled to Sicily | Italy | Europe
Vic & Katie were invaluable for our most recent trip to Italy. Sure, I could have planned the trip without them but it wouldn't have been as good and I would've spent so much time and energy trying to decide what to do and where to go. I usually over-research things and end up with decision fatigue. My husband and I knew generally where we wanted to go but Katie & Vic made the magic happen. We encountered a few random hiccoughs over the course of our 2 week trip (none of which could've been prevented and none of which were Katie's fault) and anytime I reached out with an issue, Katie was available to help solve it. If you're thinking about using a travel agent, please do consider Vic's Vacations - they are fantastic!

Family Europe
Reviewed By ErinV - Indianapolis | Traveled to London | England | Europe
Katie was amazing. She was very responsive whenever we had an issue even though she was on vacation herself. All of the tours went smoothly and the hotels were wonderful. She built an itinerary that was well-rounded and provided a variety of activities that gave our family of five a taste of three countries, which is what I had hoped for. It was not an easy task, but she seemed to handle the logistics and planning with ease. The best part was the app. It was easy to navigate, always updated IRT and accessible which was a game changer for a European vacation. I HIGHLY recommend and I will use Vic's Vacations again.

Portugal Mom and Daughter
Reviewed By Chez - USA | Traveled to Portugal | Europe
Katie from Vic’s Vacations came as a recommendation from a friend of mine. I wanted to plan a trip to Portugal with my mom and sister for my mom’s birthday and just didn’t have the bandwidth to do it myself. I gave Katie my very loose idea and she ran with it and planned a flawless trip. I explained to her how hands off I wanted to be and she took things into her own hands and delivered. I would highly recommend using her!

Family Europe Trip
Reviewed By EricK - Austin | Traveled to Spain | Europe
Katie was amazing! She planned a week-long trip to Spain and Portugal for my family of four, and everything went so smoothly. She was fantastic to work with to plan the trip. She gave us great options, helped us stay on budget, and made sure we were totally prepared before the trip. She helped us plan all aspects of the trip for us…hotel, tours, transportation, food recommendations, and more.
During the trip, she was extremely responsive anytime we had questions and kept us updated on everything. All of our travel plans were conveniently stored in an app so that we knew what to expect each day.
I’ll definitely use Katie again for our next trip!

We had an amazing time on our Nordic adventure!!! I can't thank Katie at Vic's Vacations enough for taking charge of the ENTIRE planning, allowing Brenda and I to have a carefree, luxurious vacation. We worried about nothing! The private tours and transfers made for a wonderful experience. We really couldn't have asked for better.

Seamless Italy and Spain Honeymoon
Reviewed By KriziaAngel - Houston | Traveled to Spain | Europe
We are so grateful to Katie for planning the most incredible two-week honeymoon through Italy and Spain! From start to finish, she made the entire experience seamless, personalized, and unforgettable. Every detail—from tours to hotels to transportation—was thoughtfully arranged, and we could tell she truly listened to what we were looking for in a vacation.
Katie took the time to understand our travel style, including our preference for early morning starts and making sure we had built-in downtime to relax and recharge. That balance made the trip feel both exciting and restorative. The itinerary she crafted was perfectly paced, and we were able to enjoy every moment without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
The tours she selected were amazing, and some of the standout experiences for us included a private horseback ride through the Tuscan countryside with a private vineyard tour, a private guided visit to the Vatican, and a super fun paella-making class in Spain. Each one was memorable and so well-organized.
The hotels Katie booked for us were gorgeous, comfortable, and in ideal locations—always right in the heart of the cities, within walking distance of major attractions, restaurants, and local culture. It made exploring each destination incredibly easy and enjoyable.
Thanks to Katie’s expert planning and attention to detail, we were able to fully relax and just enjoy our honeymoon. It was the trip of a lifetime, and we can’t thank her enough!

Portugal Daughters Trip
Reviewed By SusanS - Atlanta, GA | Traveled to Portugal | Europe
Katie at @gerlinggetaways and Vic’s Vacations is an exceptional travel agent! She planned a wonderful mother-daughter trip for us to Portugal, and everything was seamless from start to finish. We felt very safe during all the transfers she arranged with multiple drivers, and our hotel accommodations were excellent. Each of our drivers was not only reliable but also knowledgeable, friendly, and went out of their way to make us feel like special guests.
Katie’s itinerary and recommendations for places to visit and excursions were outstanding. She helped us choose the perfect mix of sightseeing and relaxation so we could truly make the most of our time in Portugal. Thanks to her thoughtful planning, we had an unforgettable experience and created memories that will last a lifetime.

Italy 2026
Reviewed By MorganC - Philadelphia, PA | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Katie was absolutely amazing. Katie has been in constant communication for well over a year while we worked to plan a trip to Italy. She nailed the itinerary on the first try, set up everything we could ever need, and was available to help at a moments notice. I don’t have one bad thing to say! If you aren’t working with Vic’s Vacations yet, you’re missing out! We can’t wait to book more trips in the future.

Multiple trips with Katie!
Reviewed By SydneyF - Charlotte, NC | Traveled to Hawaii | USA
Katie has now planned 2 trips for us...Munich, Germany last summer and Disneyland & Hawaii this summer and both were amazing! Our trip to Disneyland & Hawaii was one of the best trips we have ever taken! We went to Kauai and Maui and the resorts were beautiful with amazing service, the tours were excellent (especially the helicopter tour in Kauai...so breathtaking!), and the itinerary was just perfect. We wouldn't have changed a thing....just wish we didn't have to leave! We highly recommend working with Katie to plan your next vacation!

Bermuda trip
Reviewed By EmmaW - Charleston, SC | Traveled to Bermuda | Caribbean
Worked with Katie of Vic’s Vacations to get an incredible deal on a luxury hotel for my Bermuda trip - and even more importantly, Katie stayed in touch with me as a hurricane was approaching and looking likely to impact the trip and walked me through all the options. When unfortunately the hurricane did cause my flights to be cancelled, she left no stone unturned to ensure I got a full refund from the hotel (and I will 100% be rebooking with her to reschedule the trip!) Katie is your girl!!
Katie Gerling responded
"So sorry this trip couldn’t happen, Emma - dang hurricanes! But we’ll get you to paradise soon enough. Thanks for being patient and trusting the process for this. So glad we had a good outcome. XO Katie"
