She Took Care Of Everything
Reviewed By Sean - Chandler, AZ | Traveled to
We wanted to go to an All Inclusive - Adult Only - Resort in Jamaica.
Way too many options for a non traveler like me to know what is good & real vs. a touristy rip off.
Not only did she show us the "Good Places"...
But she got EVERYTHING lined up.
She got us freebies, and discounts, and most importantly:
She monitored our travel. We were never "alone" during our transition into and then out of complete and total relaxation!
Well done Cindi!

My Key to a Great Vacation
Reviewed By No Nickname - Arizona | Traveled to
I am a do-it-yourselfer but that no longer applies to my vacation plans. After spending over a week trying to find a workable combination of airfare, hotel, car and Disney Land tickets I finally cried uncle and set out to find a travel agent.
I reached out to 10 agents and no one came near the responsiveness and understanding of exactly what I was looking for except for Cindi Sanden at Awaken Travels. Cindi gave me many opportunities and wound up saving me over $1,200 (in addition to a lot of headaches) for my trip. She is now my one and only travel agent. I will never try to do it on my own again with her in my corner!
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Honeymoon to Jamaica
Reviewed By Stacie - Virginia | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Cindi was very responsive and helpful. She helped us plan our honeymoon to Jamaica. The only down fall from the trip was not having seat assignments together on the flights.
Cindi Sanden responded
"Thank you so much for taking the time to review our services Stacie. I am sorry to hear you were disappointed that you were unable to sit together on your flight. Because of your budget for the trip your reservation was for Basic Economy Flights and unfortunately when you book these budget flights you are unable to pre-select your seats. It was my true pleasure helping you plan your Honeymoon to Jamaica and I wish you joy and happiness in your marriage and life. "
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Client Testimonials
First Overseas Honeymoon Made Easy
Having never been overseas, my husband and I turned to Awaken Travels for help planning our honeymoon to Italy. Vijal and Teresa worked together to make sure we had a great itinerary and always was willing to answer any questions we had. Everything from our transfers, to our hotel stay to our tours went seamlessly. Teresa answered any questions via text despite the time difference and being across the world. Teresa even answered a question I had on Christmas night when my husbands name was incorrect on his boarding pass! Then her and Vijal had a one on one call with me the day before we left to go over any and all questions we had. We missed our connecting flight due to delays and Teresa called the transfer company on behalf of us to make sure we would still have a ride at midnight.
We would definitely use them again to plan our next trip because they take so much of the stress and planning off of you!
