Overall Donna did an outstanding job in coordinating our vacation. So much so we booked another vacation with Donna for October 2020. Donna was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Kept us well informed throughout the process.

Donna goes over and above with her service. We had to make adjustments a few times to the trip because we were coordinating with family in Maryland and Donna helped a lot. She had great suggestions and I love working with her.

Donna spent hours on calls with the cruise line to make sure we were taken care of, received the credits we were supposed to, and to ensure our travel would go as smooth as possible. Thank you Donna!

Donna was always in contact with important information and seemed generally concerned when issues arose. Donna did an exceptional job. I typically plan my own travel, but would definitely use her as an agent again.

1st time I've used a travel agent in years. Donna exceeded all expectations at every level. I would run out of positive adjectives if I were to list everything that she did. Highest rating possible for her professional and personable service!
