Testimonials
Michelle did an incredible job on planning, organizing, communicating options, and booking our recent trip. I wanted to expand on our cruise, so I had her book additional time in Barcelona and a full week in Italy, post-cruise. She booked hotels, excursions, trains, flights…everything… all we had to do was show up and enjoy. We had an amazing trip thanks to her listening to what I wanted and making it happen. I can’t recommend her more highly enough… a professional who loves travel and making your trip dreams come true!!- Donna H.

Our group started in Barcelona and cruised to France and Italy. Overall a memorable and wonderful trip. Michelle arranged tours in Barcelona, Pisa/Florence and Rome. Every tour was better than expected and the tour guides took us to authentic (not touristy) restaurants. When we realized we had more lugguage than "normal", she quickly jumped in and helped. Great trip and would work with her again!- Trisha B.
Our trip to Europe was fantastic. We visited Spain, France, and Italy (land and cruise ship). Michelle was our personal travel agent and all aspects of the trip were perfect and very enjoyable. Let me call out just a few:
* Initial scheduling of the multi city vacation (flight, hotels, transportation, cruise ship, etc.) was seamless with Michelle at the helm.
* Michelle kept an eye on our overall delta vacations and if any discounts were to be applied, she was on it.
* Public transportation was a breeze, as she knew the vehicle driver, vehicle type, and arrival times and open communication all the way
* In the couple of times, we needed small adjustments to the plans, Michelle was "johnny on the spot" with the suggestions and making the changes within a couple of hours with delight..
* We had a day by day itinerary that kept us on schedule and not missing a thing.. This kept us all with something immediate to look forward to.
This was a once in a lifetime trip and made fully possible by the generous support and skills of Michelle. Thank you SOOOOO much Michelle.
Until the next adventure!- Vickey p.

Thank you, Michelle, for helping us plan our family's June 2025 cruise! Your expertise, guidance, and "service with a smile" took the guesswork out and gave me peace of mind! You are a joy to work with and can't wait to plan our next vacation with YOU!
We had a fantastic experience working with Michelle Taliaferro at Cruise Planners! She was incredibly helpful and informative from start to finish. Michelle stayed on top of every detail, answered all our questions quickly, made sure we had all of our travel documents in order—and even scored us an upgrade! The entire process was smooth, and all we had to do was show up and enjoy our trip. If you’re planning a vacation, we highly recommend reaching out to Michelle. You’ll be in great hands!

"Michelle is great to work with!"
I cannot express enough how incredible our women’s Mah Jong getaway was, all thanks to our amazing travel agent Michelle Taliaferro! From the moment we reached out, she understood our vision for a fun and relaxing retreat at a beach bed-and-breakfast. Michelle meticulously organized every detail, from securing the perfect location with stunning ocean views to arranging delicious meals and cozy accommodations. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the perfect place for us to unwind and truly enjoy our time together.
I highly recommend reaching out to Michelle to anyone looking to plan an amazing trip!- Amy S.
Michelle did a fabulous job arranging our accommodations and dinners for our large group of ladies! Everything she communicated and selected was right on point! We all got to know her and wished she was on the trip with us!- Pamela M.
I can’t say enough about how amazing Michelle was in planning our girls’ Mahjong birthday trip to Amelia Island! From start to finish, she went above and beyond, acting as our personal concierge and making sure every detail was perfect. She found and reserved the most charming bed and breakfast, handled all of our dinner reservations, and even surprised us with a beautiful birthday cake! Her attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and dedication to making our trip stress free truly sets her apart. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again or to recommend her to anyone looking for help planning a very special vacation!- LeeAnn S.
