This was the second time we’ve booked with Summer and I can’t even explain how wonderful she is. She works so hard to make sure every detail of your trip goes smoothly! I love just having to pack and not think of all the little details because she has it covered! 10/10 recommend.- Kendyl P.

Summer is wonderful! We were a group of 10 and everything was planned for our trip to Breathless in Punta Cana. Summer arranged for us to have private transportation to the resort and back to the airport which saved so much time. This was a great vacation celebrating our son's 21st birthday. We had time to relax and we had time to celebrate. Thank you Summer for taking care of everything for us! You are the BEST!- Laurie H.
As always with any trip you have planned for me has been great.- Darrell P.

We had a wonderful time. We didn’t give Tammy a lot of notice to get our trip planned but she came through for us and our trip was amazing!- Suzanne B.
Tammy was amazing and made our trip outstanding!- Maria H.
I love working with Summer! She takes out the stress of traveling and helps me through it all!- Wendy F.
Summer is always so great to check in with us while we're on vacation. She really cares about her clients!- Jennifer C.
Tammy is always so responsive whenever I need her.- Rebecca P.
Summer planned an excellent vacation experience for our family! We booked this trip nearly a year in advance, and she worked with us the whole time. The Pre-Trip Conference was priceless. She went over our trip day by day and answered all our questions. This was the most helpful, as we were able to refer back to the materials during our trip. She went above and beyond, even answering our call for help at 2:30 in the morning when an excursion guide was at the wrong port. Sure fixed everything and we were on our way within a few minutes. THIS is why everyone should use a travel advisor. She is the best!- Terri D.

We loved every experience we had! The second entrance day for Machu Picchu originally we thought would be too exhausting, but after we did it, it was the experience of a lifetime. We were the first ones in the ruins!
We had a few uh-ohs in terms of the itinerary being off by some time. The Lima transport day to Cusco Airport said 8:10am on our itinerary, but the tour guide came at 6:55am and woke us up in a hurry! The only other issues with the itinerary were the Cusco City tour we had 9am, but the guide said she was scheduled for 1pm so we did that. It ended up being better and the final leaving time to our airport we had 12:55, but the Condor Travel people said 1:25. Just some inconsistencies with a few days, but nothing too worrying!- Macy G.
Travel advisor was great and was quick to explain or advise whenever needed- Robert S.
Hi Summer! Thank you for helping plan and organize a wonderful trip to Costa Rica for my family! It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, all while touring two beautiful regions of Costa Rica! All of the drivers and tour guides that Mario and his team arranged were so kind and helpful in educating us all about the history, culture, animals and plants in the areas we visited. We left with so many family memories that will last a lifetime!
Thank you again and I hope you and your family have a wonderful summer!- Meghan G.
Summer took the time to gather wishes from the group and distilled them in a great itinerary- Francis R.
Best all inclusive yet to Mexico! First time to the Pacific side and loved it…fantastic upscale resort feel, food, service & spectacular oceanfront room with an amazing view. Thank you for helping us plan such a wonderful, memorable trip to Cabo!- Katherine K.
Tammy is awesome to work with and treated us to some great hospitality with a cabana at COCO Cay.- William B.
- Alma R.
Summer's attention to detail, answering questions for this first time cruiser, keeping us updated on timelines and providing tips went above and beyond. Although she was at conferences and taking trips herself she was always available whenever needed. Great job Cruise Planners! I'll definitely use you for my next trip!- Kimberly C.
Tammy was incredible and very communicative. We were never wondering about one little detail of our trip as Tammy covered everything and all of our needs beautifully!- Janet Y.
It made our first cruise in 15+ years so easy. Questions answered, suggestions made and service amazing!- Lori R.
A pleasure to work with- Victor D.
We had a wonderful trip! Any future trips I would opt for nice chain hotels instead of boutique hotels. Aside from that, I can't think of much else I would change. Loved our trip!!- Christine M.
Not only was the cruise great, but Tammy and Cruise Planners did a great job in getting everything set up in advance and sending out reminders to make sure we had everything prepared before we left.- Frank H.

My husband and I just returned from Cancun for our 10th anniversary and we had a great time. This was our third trip that Summer put together for us and it’s easy to enjoy our vacations knowing that everything has been taken care of and all we have to do is just relax and have fun!! We highly recommend Summer at Cruise Planners and can’t wait for her to help us plan our next getaway!- anna b.
Tammy provided the best cruise for us. We had a great time!
I don’t think there are enough positive words to say when it comes to Our whole experience. We absolutely love dealing with Tammy and absolutely have enjoyed our cruises. Thank you for the wonderful memories, and making them so easy to achieve.- Shawn H.
This is the first time I’ve used Cruise Planners. Will definitely be using them again. Everything was seamless and effortless. A great experience.- David M.
Our Trip to Bali will be unforgettable- Thanks to Summer our family will have memories that will last a lifetime. We could not have dome it without her- Priscilla J.
We have been working with Tammy for years. Whether we are cruising, taking a train trip or just deciding on a quick getaway, she’s always available and ready to help. She has a wealth of knowledge and we’ve never been disappointed. Our latest trip to Vegas to celebrate my 60th was perfect. We stayed downtown at the Golden Nugget and everything we needed was either in the hotel or within walking distance. Tammy is absolutely the best in the business!- Angie D.
Tammy has been super helpful in planning our Hawaii vacation a few years ago and our recent Celebrity Cruise. She is an outstanding travel agent and we have referred her to three of our friends that are now using her. Tammy goes above and beyond to answer any questions.
Summer Bowers was simply AMAZING! I had never used a travel agent and now I'm not sure how I ever traveled without one. It was a seamless process from start to finish. My mom and I started with very general ideas of what we wanted our European vacation to look like but didn't even have final destinations picked. Summer turned all of that into a two-week, well-executed, wonderful adventure.
I think the great thing about Summer is she's willing to take your lead. In our case, we wanted and needed a lot of input and recommendations, which she gave. She was willing to go through multiple iterations of the itinerary, including us changing our minds or wanting to see a few different options. She was also very mindful of our budget, which I appreciated. Then on the trip it was nice to have her check in and make sure all was going smoothly.
Summer was extremely responsive! After we sent an email, she would respond almost immediately or at least let us know when she could look into it (which was always within the next day). I can't tell you how good it felt to have her on top of everything and monitoring our flights/excursions/etc. We got an email from her a few weeks before the trip that one of our flights had been cancelled but she'd already rebooked us on another flight with an even better arrival time. I never even had to worry! Then on the trip she would respond almost immediately and troubleshoot if we needed. When we got home, she helped us navigate a refund from the insurance company and welcomed us home with a sweet card.
We traveled with family friends for part of the trip who gave the biggest compliment that on their next trip they would be using Summer! I definitely will too!- Erin B.
Great support and followup. Tons of patience.
Tammy was great to work with! She responded quickly to emails and was always there with a helpful answer.
Erin and I don’t know where to begin thanking you! Our trip was wildly successful and one that we will cherish forever. And we give Summer Bowers and Cruise Planners/Tropics and Tropics all the credit. We were going in circles with our own attempts to put it all together. A wedding in France was the reason for the trip but everything else was negotiable. We were also working with a budget but didn’t have any idea how to make it all work. Summer calmly held our hands, gathered our ideas, provided suggestions and we quickly had a tentative itinerary and working budget. That was just what we needed! She emphasized that it was just a starting point and we could easily make changes. The whole process was fun, efficient, and resulted in the trip of a lifetime. Summer has the knowledge of traveling, attention to detail and experience to plan amazing trips - for seasoned travelers and novices alike. My daughter and I recommend her whole heartedly and will be using her expertise for all our travels from here on out. We are also happy to talk directly with anyone who has specific questions.- Laura K.
Every trip we've booked through Tammy with Cruise Planners has been awesome... all the details are taken care of for us, all we have to do is read the documents that Tammy provides and show up on time on day 1... everything else falls in place perfectly.
Thank you Tammy for putting together a wonderful long weekend in Jamaica. As usual the travel documentation that you provided stepped us through seamlessly from the airport arrival, to the resort, back to the airport for departure.
The Riu Montego Bay was perfect for a relaxing weekend in the beautiful Jamaican waters... and there was plenty of fun and entertainment to be had at the resort as well. We loved the all inclusive food and beverages... that made the entire trip so much nicer. Our only complaint was that we didn't plan to stay longer.- Sarah A.
Summer did a fantastic job planning our trip to London in August 2023. We had an exceptional time, and everything went smooth and according to plan. Thank you!- Eric M.
Summertime is nice but I’m talking about Summer Bowers with Tropics and Beyond. Summer did a great job planning our two recent trips. She did a great job finding the best deals and was always quick to answer questions or concerns. I highly recommend Summer if you are looking for a travel agent to plan your next vacation!- David B.
Tammy Overcash did a fantastic job planing a five day trip to Washington, DC with my youngest grandson to celebrate his recent graduation from high school. What a fantastic time we had touring the monuments and museums. The highlight of our trip was a fantastic overall tour of DC on an air-conditioned bus that allowed us to go inside the Capitol Building and to spend time at the Martin Luther King Monument that neither of us had visited. What a delight to not have to arrange details of our excursions!- Tyra M.
Summer Bowers did a great job helping me plan my husband's 50th birthday adventure to Norway. She made all the tedious logistics a piece of cake. I felt confident knowing that she had the personal experience and resources to help plan a seamless trip. I even contacted her with a change of plans while we were traveling and she made it happen. Thanks, Summer!- Jennifer C.
Summer did an amazing job of planning the best vacation my family has ever had! She helped with every aspect of booking our cruise, from rooms and prepaid gratuities to excursions and quickly answered any questions I had. I will never book through another agent. Summer is the best!
Summer was great from start to finish. Her expertise was absolutely essential to get our family of 12 coming from 3 different locations to a resort that provided all the needs for ages ranging from 75 to 2 years old. Extremely helpful in identifying and ticketing us for the most popular sights and events. Definitely highly recommend and will use her again
This was our first time working with Tammy. We had a pleasant experience and will definitely be going to her with all our future cruising plans. Everything was exactly as we hoped for and more.- Christina B.
Tammy is always so thorough and we never have to worry if anything has been forgotten. Many of our friends now use her as well.
Tammy worked very hard to find my perfect vacation. We had lots of choices but the tours with G Adventures was probably the best we could have had, especially after I found out how they do business themselves. Will absolutely use Tammy and G Adventures again!
Everything was just as wonderful as presented.
Tammy was wonderful! She helped us every step of the way! She planned a fun trip for us afterwards in London and Paris! I can’t wait to book something again with her!
Eric is always very prompt and helpful, he makes great resort suggestions based on our preferences
Our vacation logistics were simple and seamless...from our flight, to our rental car, to our return home. We didnt have to think, just enjoy. It was awesome!
Took and wonderful trip to Alaska this summer and could not have been happier with the 4 days in Vancouver, the 8 day cruise on Azamara, 4 day trip to Denali, and the help that Eric gave us in planning the 70th Birthday and 35 Wedding Anniversary trip of a lifetime. The whole trip went flawlessly from being picked up at the airport, the accommodations, the surprise bottle of champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, a Birthday banner in our room, every excursion, and every meal to the box of cookies when we got home. The time Eric spent with us planning this trip was so valued. He made it stress free and guided us every step of the way. Thanks, so much, Eric!!! You are the best. Not as good as Alaska, but up there at the top of the list.- Christine B.

My daughter and I had a wonderful time visiting Hawaii! The hotel in Honolulu was very nice, Pearl Harbor Tour was inspiring, and transfers all were very smooth. We enjoyed the "Diamond Head Luau" on Oahu on the night before the cruise departure. It was small, food was great, and was walking distance from our hotel. The Norwegian cruise was a great way to see a little of each island. Can't wait to go back for more! We enjoyed several shore excursions through the cruise ship - Molokini Snorkel in Maui, Rainbows and Waterfalls in Hilo, Haleakala Crater tour, and Blue Hawaiian Helicopter Tour in Kauai. We also did several things on our own, including parasailing in Maui and Kona with UFO Parasail, and a Cessna plane tour with Big Island Air in Kona. I highly recommend all of these tours! I also would like to recommend the tour we took on the last day in Hawaii - a private tour with Oahu Circle Tours. Our guide picked us up at the Cruise terminal around 9 am, and showed us many beautiful sights all over Oahu (many that would never have been accessible by tour bus), and dropped us at the airport in advance of our evening flight - for not much more than the cost of the circle tour the ship offered. Overall, an excellent vacation! Thank you so much for your help in booking this trip and answering our questions.- Kathleen D.
