A wedding celebration to cure the winter blues
Reviewed By Jonathan - Duluth, MN | Traveled to Honduras ~ Central America/ Cozumel, Mexico
Some friends of our were married in the beginning of the year. Close friends and family decided to go on a cruise to celebrate. Sandra went above and beyond getting everyone prepared and well educated for the vacation. Making sure we had all the necessities and proper paper work for going on a out of country excursion. The process of planning something like this can certainly be overwhelming especially when we're so busy with the day to day hustle and bustle.
Our vacation was well planned and no detail was over looked which allowed us to be worry free before, during and after our trip. Needless to say we had an amazing time and we will definitely be working with Sandra time and time again.

Sandra was extremely helpful on my trip, especially when my flight from Chicago to Newark was late getting to the gate due to a storm, and I thought I was going to be missing my connecting flight to Scotland.

Sandra was very helpful and organized in the planning of our trip. When the airlines rescheduled at the last hour and we were unable to locate our hotel she was there to help.

Second Honeymoon
Reviewed By Paige - Duluth, MN | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands ~ Caribbean
Sandra assisted in finding the perfect trip for my husband and I to get away alone for the first time since our honeymoon. Sandra took into account all of our likes and dislikes. She presented a few destinations with accommodations. Once we chose the destination, she took care of all the details. We arrived at the airport in Turks with a ride for us prearranged by Sandra. Our accommodations and trip were beyond our expectations. We had an amazing time and Sandra's planning made our experience seamless! We cannot wait until our next adventures planned by Sandra!

"What a pleasure it was for me to be a part of your second honeymoon! Thank you ! I look forward to future consultations and planning of making even more memories!

Outstanding trip!
Reviewed By Lise - Duluth, MN | Traveled to Cabarete ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Sandra is an excellent planner. I would trust her with anything. She is very detail oriented and kept us informed about all our options as we planned the trip. The cruise itself was tremendously fun and very relaxing because of all the advance planning Sandra had done. If you want to travel but don't want the hassle of making all the plans and bookings yourself, then Sandra is the travel agent for you. She made it all so easy. Thank you Sandy.
Sandra Nelson CTA CTS responded
"Dear Lise... Thank you so much for making me smile with your fabulous review ! It is my deepest wish to always involve my clients with the best possible planning and organizing... creating wonderful experiences and happy memories!

She found us the most wonderful vacation
Reviewed By Jim - Duluth MN | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Sandra takes all the worry out of planning a trip.
I have used her services for family vacations. Business travel.
Most recently. We had a family medical emergency situation. Sandy jumped right in. Rolled up her sleeves and went work. She arranged for multiple people from different locations to get where we needed. Airline, Hotels, transportation. She did it fast on a moments notice.
I would highly recommend Sandy for any travel needs you may have.
She’s the hardest working woman I’ve ever met.
