Great trip!  I am spoiled and love the smaller ship and its smaller adventures.  The ship, service, people and excursions 
were all top notch and such fun.  We were able to meet a couple of awesome travelers that had very similar interests.
We had such fun.  Thanks for all you did to make the trip outstanding.  Top rating from me. ~ Mary | Scottsdale

We went to the Galapagos Islands with a family group of 7.  Laurie was the perfect travel planner for us!  She took the time to understand what I wanted, researched all options, presented them in a comprehensive and easy way, was ALWAYS available for questions, helped us navigate every hiccup, answered every question and most important, helped us navigate canceled flights in Miami.  Without her I doubt we would have made it to our ship.  I highly recommend Laurie and am sure we will be using her services in the future!  ~ Linda | Denver

 I had the pleasure of working with Laurie on our dream vacation to Italy.  We were not sure what we were really
looking for other than seeing Venice and exploring Italy.  Laurie asked questions to learn about what we wanted
to see and do.  She was absolutely amazing and gave us suggestions until we found the one we loved.  Laurie took
​care of everything and was there every step of the way!  She helped us book the trip of a lifetime.    ~  Jessy | Tucson

Laurie was amazing to work with. She sold us on going to Alaska for our Honeymoon and we are so glad she did.  Laurie was extremely detailed and on top of all of our plans. She made sure we had all of the things arranged that we didn't think of.  Laurie went beyond to answer any questions we had and when there was mix up with one of our excursions she handled it so we didn't have to.  I would highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for a travel advisor.  She truly cares about the experience her clients have.  If anyone is even thinking about doing an Alaskan cruise, I would say DO IT while you can.  So much to see and do and vast amount of untouched land and beauty that surrounds you - it's unlike anything I've experienced.  Thank you again for all of your help!   ~ Carrie | Scottsdale

Laurie helped me plan the trip of a lifetime, a river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest. Even with the challenges from the pandemic, my plans fell into place without a hitch. From the 14 days of sunshine (did Laurie throw that perfect weather in?) to the amazing sights and delicious food, Laurie helped me every step of the way to assure me a vacation I will remember for a lifetime!  ~ Karen | Scottsdale
