We have been working with Tricia Gonzalez for more than ten years. Her professionalism and productivity are commendable. She makes planning a trip easy and enjoyable. Tricia knows the types of activities and price range we target and prepares multiple options to manage the best itinerary. She is an excellent resource! - Frank D.
Hi Tricia, The trip was great! Loved all the tours. I thought the guides were excellent. We definitely made the most of our time in Paris. The only thing I would do differently is stay in a hotel with a restaurant. There were a couple of nights where we were pooped and would have liked to have that option. The hotel staff was wonderful by the way. All in all, an excellent trip and I am so glad we got out of there before the strike!  Thanks for your help with this trip. You did a great job and really hit all the things we requested! Lisa - Lisa D.
Susan Kelly is outstanding as a Cruise Planner expert. I love her trips. The guides were superb. - Karen D.
the itinerary Susan Kelly put together for Poland was beyond expectations. - Nancy D.
everything well thought out - Ruby W.
Dear Tricia, thank you very much for the great job organizing our trip and the onboard credit. Airport transfer was perfect (I gave them a 5 star rating) got to the airport on time; but due to heavy fog in Paris CDG, our flights were delayed; we made the connecting flight to Miami but our luggage did not. Air France acknowledged our luggage which hopefully will be delivered by tomorrow. Overall cruise experience was wonderful, we had fantastic weather all the way. With another couple, we started in Milan, went to Lake Como, took the Bernina Red Train Express to St. Moritz and Switzerland, the Duomo and Last Supper viewing in Milan and a private car service to Venice to start the Azamara cruise, we loved everything and was impressed with Croatia! .Our suite was very nice, except for small bathroom, and the crew personable. Destination and excursions were good choices. with Azamara. Compared to Viking, , we found Viking slightly better in food quality, spa services and amenities, internet service, and entertainment. Ray and I had an amazing time and again would like to thank you for making our trip smooth and enjoyable. Till the next cruise, Nell & Ray - Marinella H.
Trish is the best . . . handles all of our needs with aplomb. - Marc H.
Tricia is always there to help anything with spontaneous responses. - David W.
Susan Kelley was an absolute to work with. She kept me updated on my “to do” list. Her recommendations were spot-on. She helped us choose the perfect Alaskan cruise on Seabourn Quest. - Terri E.
Hi Tricia, Thank u so much for everything that u have done, we had such a great time,also thanks for the chocolate & the bottle of wine. Lea - Lea A.
We love Tricia. - Eileen M.
Lisa listened to what and where we wanted to visit in Italy! Everything was great from the tours, transfers and hotels. - Michelle C.
Resort: so, we upgraded to the platinum when we got there. And truthfully, it was the right move. I may be wrong, but because the cost was relatively low, there were a lot of interesting folks. People perched at the pool bar, drank for hours but somehow never left their seats! With 10 friends around as the kids were going wild. With that said, the platinum gave us our own beach and beachside restaurant. It was excellent. Absolutely excellent. Good breakfast, lunch and dinner. The included restaurants were all solid. Sadly, no waiter service at the pool. You have to up to the bar to get drinks. Room was really a perfect size for a family of 4. The effort that went into cleaning it, could've been better. Not saying it was dirty. But a mop or vacuum once every couple days would have been cool. Towels, it's an eco friendly resort so they aren't always replacing towels. Really only negative for me, was the regular push from the vacation "club." One dude bothered me for 15 minutes despite me saying no, multiple times. Overall, grounds were well maintained. They worked very hard to clean the beach of the seaweed. Had this cute lil pond with ducks, flamingos and other birds hanging out. Had a sort of nature walk with lots of iguanas and other birds. Frogs and turtles in the swamp area. We liked it. Peacocks freely roam the grounds, and are not bothered by people. Trolley service throughout facility. Although certain groups got very aggressive and pushed passed you to get on. But walk is more than doable, no more than 5 minutes. Ice cream shop was good. Sports bar, slow service, but cool to hang in for a game. Played mini golf, but only had two balls. Cool tho. Kids pool was a lil crazy. Some kids just animals. But it was cute, nothing intimidating at all. Luke was bored of it within 15 minutes, but did enjoy it. Kids pool was very clean. Sadly, plenty of people smoking at pool. Although signs said no smoking, not enforced. Main pools chairs fill up quickly, I was usually out by 6:30 to get a shaded set of 4. Kids pool, don't have to rush to get a chair.  - Scott H.
Good morning, I want to thank you again for coordinating this once in a lifetime trip for my family!  The only tiny snags came with the night of the train delay and not going into Pisa (which was open to the public by the way) Every tour and guide, attendants helping with transfers and the drivers (bus, van and boat) were all so friendly and helpful. plus each hotel was amazing in location and staff. Palazzo Giovanelli in Venice was our favorite ???????? Please let me know if there is a review or survey and can do for you.  Michelle - Michelle C.
We absolutely loved our Switzerland, Lake Como, and Austria trip! Thank you so much for all your hard work on it. In particular, I know it was a custom tour, but the winery tour out of Geneva was spectacular — the main winery chosen was so beautiful — and we got to see the beautiful lake and all the mountain landscapes. Also, the Bellagio walking tour with stunning wine tasting was excellent — we got to see parts of Bellagio we would not have known to look for on our own and the winery had incredible views and was very tasty. The boat tour was also fantastic and they allowed us to customize it a bit to see Varenna I wanted to mention it incase any of your clients were interested in something similar. - Nicole B.
And a big thanks from me as well. Don't think we could have made it without your continuous support. And another thank you to our driver in Greece, He went above and beyond for us. - John H.
The Taste of Tuscany tour was absolutely perfect for us - it was a fantastic suggestion on your part and was everything we expected and more. Your hotel recommendations, the flight and other transportation arrangements that you made for us -- both initially, and subsequently again and again as circumstances changed "under our feet," and all the advice you gave us before, during and after the trip is appreciated more than we can possibly say. - Helen H.
Alaska was great! We really loved the celebrity cruise! Thank you so much for suggesting that we buy the aqua class!! Aqua class was amazing! Our favorite part of the cruise was the intimate setting, where we ate our breakfast and dinner every single night. By the second day, they were addressing us by our names. The food was amazing! We also loved the four days that we spent in Vancouver. The city is beautiful! Thx. Rich - Richard M.
Thank you Tricia for booking our trip to Barbados. Shanye and I had a ball! We will book with you in the near future. I'm still trying to see what's the best option for Disney next year. Have a wonderful weekend! - Laura B.
Good morning, Tricia, Finally have a minute to touch base. We had a great trip! One thing I might do differently next time is stay in the more touristy area or on Avenida de Liberdade. Our hotel (Hotel 1 Hotel Real Palacio) was beautiful, and the breakfast was amazing, but we did experience a slight language barrier and not great service in the restaurant and bar. Also, there did not seem to be a ton of options for dinner/ drinks that were walkable near the hotel, so we spent a lot of time in Ubers. All totally fine, but for us something to think about in the future. The tours and tour guides were fantastic. Warm, interesting people that were very knowledgeable. Even though by the end of the trip, parts of the tours seemed a bit repetitive, I learned something knew from each person. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the day trip to Sintra and the Palma Yacht two-hour sail on the Tagus, as well as the food and wine tuk tuk tour. The guide on the day trip, Pedro, sent us to the most amazing place for lunch. Totally off the charts - location, service, and food! - Lisa D.
Dana was amazing at helping plan accommodations and excursions at the last minute to help me navigate my first time being in Europe and Italy. She was able to get tickets to normally sold out places such as the Uffizi Gallery and Boboli Gardens in Florence. A highlight of the trip was booking e-bike reservations to bike in the Tuscan countryside to a picturesque winery for a tasting. The accommodations Dana recommended in San Gimignano were beautiful and more than adequate. Dana was able to help me go on a trip I will remember fondly for the rest of my life and I would highly recommend her for any travel planning! Thank you Dana, can’t wait for the next trip! - Jonathan C.
Dana is an expert planner & caters to the needs of her customers. She is usually available & returns messages quickly. Dana took the stress & time out of my planning such an elaborate trip. I highly recommend working with her. - Debra H.
This was our 1st ever all-inclusive trip, and I can’t believe we waited 25 years to do this! Thank you Dana for helping us make this trip happen. It surpassed our expectations. It was wonderful working with you :) - Robert K.
Dana planned & booked a phenomenal vacation for me. Ms. Gatt not only helped mye achieve my life long dream of visiting Egypt, seeing the Royal Tombs & sailing down the Nile, but she also helped me my achieve another Bucket List of watching Shakespeare at the Globe theatre. Ms. Gatt worked tirelessly to ensure my trip went seamlessly from each event to each country leaving with me with more time to explore each new culture. She also finds the best deals for each client & is quite knowledgeable about the destinations. I highly recommend her services if you are looking to book a trip. - Debbie H.
Tricia is absolutely wonderful. She anticipates my every need. She is extremely helpful. - Mary Beth C.
I just wanted to let you know that the trip went off perfectly except for one little hitch. Jo got pricked or stung by something in her finger and we spent 6 hours at the hospital. It was at night so it wasn't so terrible especially since everything worked out. The fees we had to pay up front were about $1,200. Upon returning home we filed a claim and it was paid in full in less than two weeks. Thank you so much for planning a great vacation for us and making sure we had travelers insurance. You are the reason people should always use a great agent., Thanks again and enjoy the rest of your vacation! - Mitchell T.
Cruise planners was with us all the way. After booking they kept us up to date with regular updates and reminders before during and after our trip. Their conscientiousness in providing great recommendations and seeing to our every need went far beyond the bar of expectations. They were friggin great. - Mitchell T.

Susan made it seamless and coordinated everything to a T! All I gave her was time frame, places of interest and it was a perfect itinerary and perfect amount of time in each place. - Nancy D.
Hi. We had such a great time. I loved it. May need a visit back in the summer months with things in bloom. The hotel was perfect. It's location, the people, the service. We were not rushed. Had plenty of time to relax and enjoy our little apartment yet we saw everything we wanted to. A friend from work who also visits Paris frequently could not believe his much we saw. Montmantre was a big favorite. Thanks again for another perfect trip! Now on to Tuscany! ???? - Andrea M.
We have used this agency in the past and have been saved by it when some travel aspects went sideways. The planning and immediate communication with the agency for our recent trip was superb and with no glitches. Thank you. - Kenneth R.

Hello!! Hope all is well! Everyone said that was the best trip they've ever been on. We appreciate the recommendation. Also, the balloons and cake were nice. We thank you for that . With that being said, how did you like Dunes? Or which Sandals would you recommend? We don't want anything to far from the airport. - Robert C.
Trish was absolutely amazing to work with! Super responsive, so helpful, and really made this planning process a total breeze for us! Would (and already have) recommend her to anyone who asks!! - Nicole F.

Lisa helped booked a trip for our family to Cancun, Mexico and she has been amazing from the start. If you are looking for an agent who is knowledgeable, she’s your girl. She suggested we get insurance for our trip and she was right. A hurricane was due to hit and she helped change our reservation. She has been there every step of the way to answer our questions. Lisa is very good at what she does and I recommend that you plan every future trip through her. - Nicole S.
Lisa was extremely attentive, professional, and detail-oriented. She consistently sent updated emails and text messages and was always available for phone calls. On the day of her surgery, she called me right before the procedure to confirm a few details that I was still awaiting a response on. Did I mention she orchestrated a group of 22 of us..... EXCELLENT job LISA PRIVITI!!! You ROCK!!!! I told her that she would always be our travel advisor for our trips and group trips. - DEBORAH S.
It was a pleasure working with Lisa. She was very thorough abd professional. - Juliet M.

We had a great time! Although Italy is an easy wonder, your assistance and arrangements helped make the trip extra special. I believe Carolyn is planning on sending feedback. Most of the connections worked out fine. There were some services/options that were not available once we arrived. But, there was always something to enjoy. We lucked out on the weather and even got some swim time. All terrific! Thanks very much for helping to arrange another wonderful trip. Frank and Michael - Frank D.
Lisa was fantastic with helping us set up our vacation for our family, from choosing a hotel, to organizing flights and shuttle services to and from the airport. We are very grateful we used her to relieve the stress of planning a vacation. - PATRICK S.

Tricia, thanks very much for the gift that greeted us at the Bari Grand Hotel. It is a perfect way to welcome us to this Puglia paradise. Adriatic is beautiful and the sun is spectacular. Can't wait to see more. Thanks again! Frank, Michael, Maureen, Andy, and Carolyn - Frank D.
It was amazing, Tricia! We are huge Riverside fans and would and have recommended you and Riverside to friends already. Thank you for all your work and help in making this happen. The greatest trip we have done! - Andrea L.

We had the BEST time. We were blown away by the entire trip! Riverside is incredible. Every town we went to was so charming. We are raving fans of both you and Riverside. Thanks so much for all of your help! I'm strongly encouraging my parents to reach out to you to book a trip. Thanks for everything! Cara - Cara R.
Lisa was very helpful in helping us prepare for our Cruise vacation. I feel she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. I would highly recommend using her to anyone who is looking for a Cruise agent. - Frances B.

Always available to answer our questions - Richard S.
We love Tricia! She is down to earth realistic and always accommodating The all inclusive resort experience is never our favorite but it's the best option for our family now. The only real negative about this last trip was that we could hear the delivery trucks beeping as they reversed for hours everyday beginning at 5:15 AM. And the hotel doors were like reg bedroom doors so all movement outside of the room woke us (room service wagons at 2:00 etc ). - Eileen M.
I love working with Ms Gonzalez She is an absolute pleasure - Laurette R.
Thanks Tricia. I really enjoy working with you and your attention to the details of our trip!!! - Timothy R.
We had a wonderful time!! Even though Bud and I have been there before, we experienced many new things. We loved taking the train to Seward, would highly recommend. We did the Gold Star ticket and it was worth every penny. Taku lodge was as wonderful and breathtaking as we remembered. The grandkids loved their different excursions and independence on the cruise. LOL. Thank you again for all your help making this trip such a memory maker for our family. Paula - Paula I.
If I could give a million gold stars, I would! Tricia was absolutely phenomenal in planning and organizing our large group of nearly 100 people for our destination wedding in Punta Cana. She is professional, organized, responsive, and incredibly helpful. From our initial meeting to our return home and everything in between, she handled every situation with precision and care. Her attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our trip was perfect, and her prompt communication made the process entirely stress-free. I couldn't have asked for a better travel agent to guide us through our wedding planning journey, and we truly couldn't have done it without her! Our guests were so impressed by the seamless planning process and the wonderful resort she recommended. We highly recommend Tricia's services to anyone planning a special trip! - Victoria R.
Attention to details, always available and willing to help--Tricia is the greatest
Thank you soooo much!!!! I appreciate all that you do for me and everyone?? Thank you for thinking of me ???? Have a wonderful trip and I'll see you when you get back... Thanks again! Love , Marian - Marian M.
Trisha is the best! Always available to answer any question or concern no matter how big or small! She is an absolute pleasure to work with. Cannot wait to plan the next trip!
As always we had a great trip. Pat always makes it seemless. Thanks for always being there to help us out. Can’t wait to plan the next trip! - Andrea G.
Hi Tricia . Just wanted to thank you for your help on arranging our trip to Vegas . We had a fantastic time . Thank you . Patrick . - Patrick M.
We have used Trish Gonzales now for two big cruises and can safely say she is the consummate professional. We are very experienced planners and travelers. It wasn't until we started cruising a few years ago that we felt stumped about the vast array of choices and approaches to cruises and all they had to offer. Travel as a family became more complicated as kids moved out of state after college and began to have families. Trish has always had the best tips and contacts to make our trips the best possible value for our money. Also twice we had plane and cruise major issues and she quickly and professionally and on off hours helped us. She took the worry off our minds while on vacation and solved problems quickly and happily. We highly recommend her! - Cathy R.
Tricia has always been amazing in helping us plan our family vacations!
Tricia Gonzalez was awesome!!! She's the best!! Highly recommended!! - robert c.
Hello!! Hope all is well. My wife said the trip was amazing!! She said best bday ever!!! We appreciate everything. Soooo we want to plan Sandals in St. Lucia for Dec 4-9 please!!! Thanks again - Robert C.
Hi Tricia! Thanks for everything. The resort was great! We enjoyed it. We’ll be booking for next year for St. Lucia. Thanks again! Joiet - Joiet W.
Trish made planning this trip effortless! She was helpful in answering questions, keeping us on track of payments, and arranging transportation to and from the airport/ resort. We just needed to show up and enjoy an incredible vacation at the beautiful Secrets Cap Cana! - Melanie B.
Good morning Tricia, Just want to thank you for all your help with all the travel plans. It was also nice to finally meet you. We are heading home today, wish I could stay here forever..LOL Thanks again, Nancy and Scott - Nancy L.
Susan promised that Atlas would be small ship cruising in luxury and she was right! Loved the trip!! The service was exceptional and the food was amazing!!
Hi Tricia, Thank you so much for planning our dream France trip, we had a marvelous time and absolutely loved it! The entire trip moved so smoothly and seamlessly. We truly appreciate that you took our vacation on such short notice. The companies and hotels you chose were excellent. Working with you has been an absolute pleasure, and we hope to be able to use you in the future! (Our honeymoon with be in June 2024 and looking at doing it in Greece & Croatia) Thank you again! Nicole - Nicole B.
Hi Tricia, We had an amazing trip!  The hotels were great, especially the Hotel Capodimonte.  Our room was very large, beautifully appointed and great view from the balcony.   I would highly recommend it.  Le Pradey was very nice too.  The staff were friendly and helpful.  Rooms clean but very small. The coach tour of the Amalfi Coast was very nice just long due to the traffic.   The pick ups to and from the airports were on time and worked out well. Thank you for your help in planning it all.  It certainly made the trip more relaxing and fun.  Hope your trip was wonderful as well.  We'll definitely use you again and recommend you to others.  Best regards, Carole - Carole A.
Trip was fantastic. Here is a picture of the view from our room at Hotel Grand Capodimonte. Was told that this was the only room in our category that had a view like this. It was perfect. - Yvette S.
Hi Tricia-I had a great time. The others are in Scotland now. Everything went smoothly and tours were excellent- lots of history . London reminds me somewhat of NYC. Have fun in ???????? France. Viva la France! - Maureen D.
This was my second Atlas Ocean Voyage Cruise and it was exceptional and far exceeded our expectations. The crew could never be more helpful from the Hotel Manager, Nuno to the room steward, Mark, to the outstanding bar tenders Kevant and Roberto to the dining room staff including Claudia, Eduardo, Buda and Edison. The Captain was very friendly and would stop to talk with you.
Hi Susan, While the cruise is still fresh in my memory, I wanted to tell you what a great time the four of us had. Martha and Ed have sailed with the Windstar over 10 times, and they thought Atlas Ocean Voyages was beyond all expectations. It was extraordinary. Everything went very smoothly and trouble free. Nota S from ToursByLocals was outstanding. We toured the Acropolis, she was able to get Ed a taxi back to the hotel and then the 3 of us toured the Museum. All your advice to get online tickets and then meet her at 7:20 am was worth the effort to get up early. The crowds and heat were 2 considerations that we avoided. The lines were beyond long. Our Athens Hotel was very good and strategically located. We had no trouble finding a restaurant in the area. The cruise ship, World Navigator, was great, just like the Antarctic trip. Having Nuno there as Hotel Manager was really nice and he remembered the "Lively Fifteen!” A few of the servers from the dining room came up to me to say how nice it was to see me again. Food was very good as this cruise was billed as an epicurean adventure. There were only 84 people on board with 105 crew members. The 7th floor Atlas lounge was pretty much all to ourselves or just 2-4 other people. The 2 bartenders there were outstanding (Kevant and Roberto) and looked forward to our 6 pm meeting time. The excursions were excellent. Two of the guides we had were terrific (Montenegro and Albania). It was easy to schedule excursions from the ship, although a few excursions were cancelled as there were not enough people signed up. Nuno tells me that in future voyages they hope to have lectures about the areas that are visited and the guide might stay on the ship for a day or two. That would be very helpful. Nuno was extremely helpful in getting a van to pick us up in Dubrovnik at 4 am, arranging for embarkation and a trip to the airport. Bruno from Blacklane was our driver from Zagreb to Trieste. He was an excellent driver and told us we would be at the Hotel Continental at 10 am and we were there on the dot. The van was comfortable and allowed us to sleep for an hour or so since we had to get up so early for the Dubrovnik to Zagreb flight. We recommend the Hotel Continental as it was quiet and well located in the center of Trieste. The train ride from Trieste to Venice was easy although Venice Mestre was not well marked. It took us 45 minutes to find a bus to take us to the Sheraton Four Points Hotel in Mestre. For some reason, you had to request a cab by mobile phone and some how not all phones worked. (worked in Trieste) After talking to several helpful people we found out how to purchase tickets for the bus and found our way to the right bus stop. We all felt that the United Airlines flight was a nicer plane than the older Delta plane going back. My seat would not lie flat to sleep going back, and they offered me 5,000 sky miles. The fellow in front of me complained before we took off from Venice and he got 30,000 sky miles. So I will have to ask Delta for more compensation. All four of us felt the trip far exceeded expectations. Many thanks to your hard work. With fond regards, Karen & John - Karen D.
My tour guide, Maya, was fabulous.
Triciia was very accommodating and answered all my questions.
Susan did a masterful job in planning our trip to Ireland. We will use her for all our trips when we don't go on our own.
Thank you, Tricia. It was a gorgeous trip. I appreciate the opportunity. - David W.
Everything went so smoothly, from the transfers to the cruise itself. The vacation and it’s activities were great. The smaller, luxury cruise was perfect. - Tracy H.
Thanks! We all had a great time!!!! Very relaxing and just what we needed. The resort itself was very big, but completely fine because they had trolleys every 10 mins. Clean grounds-tropical and well kept. The hotel rooms were spacious and very clean. Plenty of room and sleeping options for everyone. One room had two doubles, a twin pullout and a couch. The other room a king and the same as above. They came everyday to change the sheets and towels/clean. Mini fridge was stocked everyday with beer, water, soda and sparking water! All included. Water issue: The night we didn’t have water, one night they left a bottle of champagne and chocolates and chocolate covered strawberries. The other night a bottle of Mamawana Rum and macaroon’s and chocolates. Beaches were clean. Sand white and water see-through a greenish/blue color. Poolside service was so so- we mainly had to wait a bit for a waiter or go get drinks ourselves (lol). Everyday they had pool aerobics. Music playing! Fun! Restaurants were all good! Hibachi was included-with an option to upgrade but we felt there was no need. Plenty of food. Buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner was good. Night life was good. Every night a show followed by an dj. Throughout the resort- lots of upscale bar areas. Overall the trip was amazing! We really enjoyed it. Oh and Victoria LOVED the kids club!!!! Spent many days there and had great activities. We did find out they have a “Level” bracelet which gets your top shelf liquor and better rooms- although we had no problem getting top shelf?! So who knows! I We met some guy who has been there 27 times (to golf with guys and them also goes with family) told us next time to book the same rooms and slip someone $$ to upgrade!! Funny we had initially asked about an upgrade and they told us there was nothing?? Now we know. He also said it’s the BEST golf course. Hope my review helps you. Thank you again for booking this memory for us ?? - Lisa M.
We had a great time last week in the DR. The hotel was great, the staff was friendly, and Bianca approved of the beach! She is very picky about her beaches lol. I have to say this was one of the best traveling experiences we have ever had. All our flights took off on or before time. We barley waited in lines for security or customs at both airports! Thank you again for all your help with planning everything. We will be in touch soon to plan next year’s trip! - Kevin M.
Hi Tricia, Just wanted to say a sincere thank you. We had great weather for our trip and just love cruising. Lil rainy 1st day in Honduras but we were in jungle with monkeys and parrots that day. Pics below. Our itinerary was changed but beyond NCL control. Thanks again as always for your help in making our travel plans come true! Anne & Nick - Anne W.
We had a beautiful vacation! Thanks for helping me arrange everything. Christine - Christine S.
Thanks Tricia. Absolutely loving Viking so far. Great food and wonderful service. In Barbados today and heading for a Tropical Gardens excursion shortly. - Adrienne S.
Tricia So grateful You are the travel Fixer! - Eve B.
We had a blast, the weather was absolutely perfect. The service was a little slow but they said they still aren’t fully staffed and it wasnt a problem for us at all - Jessica F.
Hi Tricia!! Thanks for the info. We’re having a great time. Thanks for setting all this up for us. - Patricia C.
Monica is quite diligent. when we asked her to look for us at hotels in Bali (post cruise) she came up with wonderful options. we selected the Hilton Bali Resort, it was spectacular. she also helped us with daily excursions. Her follow up is impeccable
It was so perfect. We loved it so much and everything went smoothly. San Juan was the perfectly timed layover. The hotel was amazing and I was so sad to be home! Thanks again for everything - Jessica K.
Thank you Tricia for planning my birthday trip. We had a great time in Jamaica. - Shamica T.
Tricia Thanks for checking up. We had a great time. The trip home was uneventful (until we landed at Dulles and sat on the run way for 1.5 hours because of earlier storms that closed the airport for 3 hours), but global entry in a small way made up for it (those people without it are probably still in line). And by the way Turkish Airlines is excellent. Bottom line is we truly appreciate your attention and service and look forward to a lasting relationship! - Timothy R.
Tricia, I just want to thank you for helping my boyfriend and I’s first trip on a cruise line run so smoothly. We appreciate all your help it couldn’t have been done without you. We had an amazing vacation. I will keep your information for any future destinations. All the best, Elise - Elise G.
Our last 2 get aways were booked by Bridgette and we couldn't be happier. Bridgette listened to our needs and made sure every one was met. We would and do recommend Bridgette to anyone looking to travel. We wouldn't travel without calling Bridgette ??????????????? - Karen C.
Tricia was awesome, very patient & continually followed up with us to make sure everything was going smoothly. - Bennet G.
Tricia has always been helpful. Even when we made plans at the last minute, Tricia always helps to bring our cruising plans together. - Anne W.
Monica was terrific in arranging our terrific vacation with Sandals, Antigua. Highly recommended.
Hi Tricia, We had a wonderful time in spite of the difficulty getting there! Both hotels were amazing and we loved every minute of the trip. From sunrises in Waikiki to sunsets on Haleakala, Hawaii could not have been more perfect! We are already planning a return trip and appreciate the credit from Blue Sky. Thank you for all your help with everything! Your knowledge and expertise of all things Hawaii was a great help to us, and it was comforting to be able to call you when our departure had a hiccup. Both Nicole and I hope you have an amazing trip yourself! Rich - Richard J.
Thank you! The luau was great! Making beautiful memories! - Patricia H.
You have no idea how wonderful it is to have you! Merry Christmas! - Linda H.
Hi Tricia After two years of planning, waiting and crazy anxiety, the trip to Bora Bora was beyond exceptional! It truly was a vacation in paradise. Thank you SO much for all of your hard work making our dream become a reality?? - Dawn D.
We had the most amazing honeymoon, thanks to Tricia! She was able to find us reasonable first class airfare with the right amount of time for layovers to Hawaii. (We’re from Delaware so flying direct is not an option.) we went back and forth with hotels while trying to decide and ultimately stayed at the Ritz in Maui. It was better than we could have imagined. The kicker is she was able to pull together this itinerary about 2 weeks before we left! It was very spontaneous because we didn’t think we would be able to travel thanks to covid. She put together great suggestions for restaurants and activities as well. We will definitely be using Tricia for our next trip and recommending her to friends and family! - Jessica K.
The process was extremely smooth from the time we landed and checked in at the Delta Vacation Booth to get to our resort. The Lady Hamilton was simply amazing and beautiful. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. It was my first experience at an all-inclusive resort and I haven’t been able to stop raving about my experience. Thanks again for all your assistance! -Tabitha - Tabitha J.
I had a blast!! And I think everyone will agree. The hotel was great. Everyone was very attentive. The excursions were fun as well. I appreciate your help navigating us around the changes due to COVID 19. Can’t wait to do it again. ???? - Stacie Y.
Thank you Tricia, we appreciate your kind words and all the work you put in to help plan what should have been our special trip and day. I hope you and your family are healthy and well. Xoxo - Christina C.
Hi Tricia, Thanks so much! Everything was great!! Thanks for all your help as usual!! Thank you, Bill B - William B.
Hi Tricia, Now that we have had some time to readjust to being home, I wanted to take a few moments to thank you for setting up a fantastic trip for us. Everything worked out smoothly and we enjoyed each place we visited. Each was unique and the guides were exceptional. I especially would highlight Vesna in Split and Goran in Kotor. They were outstanding in their knowledge of the whole culture and there wasn’t a question they could not answer. That is not to say that the other three guides were not also very good-they were. We particularly loved the accommodations in Hvar(Adrianna) and Kotor (Forza Mare). One of the nights we were in Hvar, we watched a Beatles tribute band from the balcony of the Adrianna-spectacular! The additional wine tastings, the oyster and mussel tasting on the private island and the village stop to taste the prosciutto(and the bread, cheese, salad and wine!!) were all well worth the stops. In retrospect, the one thing we probably should have done is add an extra day in Dubrovnik and done one fewer days in Kotor. All in all, however, it was a fabulous trip-one we will be talking about for a long time to come. We hope to be able to do another trip through you in the future. Thanks again, Dolores & Jack - Dolores R.
Hi Tricia, The trip was wonderful. The accommodations all worked out well, especially the Penthouse upgrade in Hvar. Connections worked out smoothly. We were all very impressed with the tour guides. They all did a terrific job. You probably should take note of two things regarding the Forze Mare in Kotor: 1) the hotel is an hour's walk into town. People need taxi to get anywhere; 2) the area is full of cats. You may want to forward folks who may be sensitive to allergies. Otherwise, the resort area in Kotor was lovely and worth the visit. Thank you a million for all your help. Next trip may be in 2021. We'll keep you posted. Frank - Frank D.
Hi Trisha , first of all thank you for the champagne and chocolate covered strawberries! I felt like I owe you the gift for all your help! Can you please send me links to websites where I can post my very positive comments regarding your knowledgeable and patient help? Also do you have a mailing address? We enjoyed the trip immensely all cabins were perfect. It was a very busy week onboard we ate in the epernay( main) dining room each night the specialty restaurants were all booked all weeklong. This was okay since we spent a fortune already anyway and the dining room had plenty of choices. The buffet on 14 was well run, clean and varied enough each day to keep it interesting. The ships crew were all wonderful, what a clean and well run machine it is! They all loved our grandson and even made him babyccinos in the bistro( for free- steamed milk in a tiny cup with a swirl of chocolate syrup on top, he loved them!). We only booked two shore excursions with them, a train ride in Skagway and a zip line adventure ( which was labeled strenuous but barely challenged our 26-30 year old males). Thank you again for all your help! - Catherine R.
