"Sandra and family,
Congratulations on the birth of your new granddaughter.
I am so happy you are traveling to all those places you want to explore.
Trust me you will love climbing Jamaica's Dunn' River Falls in January, 2018. You only have 4 more months to departure!
Thanks for the nice review.

European Cruise
Laurie planned our perfect 25th anniversary trip to Europe! We flew from NYC to Dublin and stayed a few days! Beautiful country! Then Laurie got us on a flight to Barcelona where we boarded our ship, the Diadema!! She gave us so many helpful hints and ideas since this was our first time to Europe. She made the process so easy for us! Laurie was always one step ahead of my questions. We had the absolute time of our lives! We can’t wait to plan another getaway with Laurie and Sailer’s Delight at the helm!

National Parks Review- 5 StarS
From Amanda in Buffalo NY
What an amazing experience! I had never used a travel agency before, but I suddenly was really overwhelmed and was nervous I wouldn't get the best deals or the right place.
I wanted to surprise my significant other with a trip to the Redwood National Park. It is on his bucket list and I wanted to make that happen.
I spoke with other agencies saying that they didn't do this kind of this because of commission. They didn't do state parks only the mainstream travels, like cruises and Europe but I knew I needed help.
I came across Sailors delight on a website called thumbtack ( I believe) and WOW, she communicated with me everyday, multiple times a day, and made the trip come together perfectly. She found the perfect cottage for us and not once did she say she couldn't fulfill this trip for me. I will definitely being using Sailors Delight and Travel again.
Thank you !!!

Anniversary Week in Punta Cana
Laurie Horne arranged our vacation to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic with such clarity and detail that each phase of the trip was without "mystery and unknowns"; Laurie exemplifies the meaning of "professionalism and knowledge" and made our trip an experience which will be forever remembered as special and rewarding.
In closing, I must make note that "Sailor's Delight Travel Insurance" made mention of all the issues I had in traveling to a foreign country and addressed each concern with total understanding and patience with insurance rates which are very fair and very competitive....
Lauries "Sailor's Delight Travel Package" is the ultimate travel package and exceeds expectations beyond travel.

Laurie is fantastic. Her love of travel and passion for adventure make her a perfect fit for this role. She knows the best spots, and is happy to figure out the best place to visit! I have seen her plan trips for upwards of 15 people ranging in age, seamlessly. I wouldn't go to anyone else! Highly recommend!
