We just completed our second trip that Lori has planned with our third trip already scheduled for next spring. Our last trip was hectic leaving Austin when a fire alarm went off at ABIA and the entire airport had to be completely evacuated. After the evacuation, every passenger had to go through security screening again. Needless to say, four hours later we had all missed our flight to Montreal. No worry for us! I don’t know how she did it, but she managed to rebook our entire group of twenty through two different airports and get us into Montreal the same day so that we didn’t disrupt any of our scheduled tour activities the following day! She was amazing. Highly recommend Lori and Relaxed Escapes without reservation!

An Elevate Family Experience That Redefined Travel
Reviewed By Panarican Twins - Pasadena, CA | Traveled to Rome | Italy | Europe
Working with Lori was an extraordinary experience—one that transformed our European vacation into something truly exceptional. From the outset, Lori demonstrated a level of precision, discernment, and care that is rare. Traveling as a family of four with two 15-year-old twins, we needed an itinerary that was both sophisticated and engaging—and she delivered flawlessly. Our vacation traveling through Rome, Amsterdam, Paris and London was curated with perfection, striking a balance between cultural depth and excitement, particularly for our teens.
Each hotel selected was centrally located, spacious by European standards, and inclusive of breakfast, allowing each day to begin with ease and intention. Every element of the trip—from private transportation to our tour guides—was executed at the highest standard. Timing was seamless, transitions were smooth, and the caliber of service throughout was consistently top-tier. It was clear she selected the best vendors.
What distinguishes Lori is her ability to translate vision into reality with remarkable intuition. She listened carefully, refined every detail, and adapted the experience to reflect exactly what we wanted—often anticipating needs before we even expressed them. Her accessibility, responsiveness, and depth of knowledge instilled complete confidence at every stop! The finishing touches elevated the experience even further. From beautifully prepared welcome kits to the smallest personalized details, we felt valued and cared for. There were moments throughout the trip where we truly felt like we were traveling in a way that was both exclusive and effortless. Lori doesn’t simply plan travel—she curates experiences with intention, sophistication, and grace. This was, without question, one of the most seamless and memorable trips our family has ever taken, and we look forward to working with her again.

I was extremely satisfied with the service that Lori provided for our group going to Dubai in October 2025. She handled our arrangements in a quick and professional manner . She took care of our flights and a 5-star hotel accommodation at the very beginning of us seeking information about the trip. The tours that she planned did include the main features of Dubai and we enjoyed all the tours. It was an awesome experience to go to the top of the tallest building in the world. The tour guide that Lori got for us was very knowledgeable, personable and accommodating. I also endured an injury while on the trip and was not able to contact anyone from the travel insurance. But, after speaking with Lori, she was able to get in touch with them, who in turn did reach out to me. Whenever any of our group had an issue or concern, Lori was on hand to help fix it. Thank you Lori, for an awesome trip! You are truly an excellent travel agent!

Dubai Trip review
Reviewed By K. Brown - Bartlett, TN | Traveled to Dubai | United Arab Emirates | Middle East
Strengths - The places visited were wonderful such as The Burj Khalifa, the Ferrari Store, The Miracle Garden and the Mosque. The hotel was very nice and the staff was friendly, accommodating and attentive to our needs. The breakfast was one of the best I've had at any hotel I've been to. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the city and was able to answer the questions we had. The bus was very comfortable. Opportunities for a better experience include: 1. Would rather tour the city by a Hop on/Hop off bus instead of a city tour. Some of the unique places in Dubai we would have been able to visit had we been on the Hop on/Hop off bus include the Museum of the future, the world tallest picture frame, the world tallest Ferris wheel and the Burj Al Arab (7 star hotel). Also we would have had more time to spend at places such as the Ferrari Store, 2. Would like to have a choice of excursions to pick from instead of including two in the packet. 3. The Yacht Dinner was not what was expected. The boat seemed old and the food was buffet style. The boat was more like the Memphis Showboat instead of a yacht and the meal was subpar, 4. Need to include conditions on the excursion such as how much walking, how much waiting and how long. We went to the Tallest building and most of us left all our bags on the bus not knowing we would be standing/waiting in a very long and crowded line for over an hour. This was the 18th country I have vacationed at and it was one of my favorite. Looking forward to more trips with Lori Threat.

It was an awesome trip. Prior to the trip Lori arranged a zoom call to summarize the details of the trip and we were given the opportunity to voice any concerns and to add on any other excursions during our day. The travel to Dubai was excellent. There were no hiccups between our connections or arrival transportation.

Daily transportation was provided for all excursions. Our stay at JW Marriott was outstanding. The room was very spacious , clean, and the entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. Most importantly, 24 hour contact information was also provided in case of an emergency. This was one of the most enjoyable trip ever.

Great Canadian Trip
Reviewed By MDH - Austin, Texas | Traveled to Quebec ~ Canada
I enjoyed working with Lori Threatt. She knows her business. A fine example of her ability, competence and helpfulness happened when, on August 10, 2022 just before our flight was to leave, the staff at Bergstrom declared and emergency and evacuated the airport causing all of the peopled scheduled to fly connecting flights to Montreal, Ca. to miss both the scheduled flight from Austin to Philadelphia and the connecting flight from Philadelphia to Montreal, LorI standing at the gate counter rescheduled both flights for all 18 people flying from Austin. I personally did not think it was possible but Lori successfully helped all 18 people begin their trip to Canada. Many thanks and Kudos to her for just that. In addition she provided additional help to most everyone in the RFSA group making the trip.

Wonderful Canadian Experience
Reviewed By Billie - Austin, TX | Traveled to Canada
Lori is a top-notch professional. She saved our trip to Canada by rebooking all 20 of us at the airport after earlier events caused us to miss our flights and connections. I have traveled with Lori twice before and she has been helpful and upbeat when travel issues arose. She handles each problem skillfully and cheerfully.

Best Travel Consultant ever
Reviewed By Keith - Austin, Texas | Traveled to Montreal ~ Quebec ~ Canada
I am the co-chair for our travel group of the University of Texas Retired Faculty and Staff Association. I have worked with Lori for nearly 2 years and it has been nothing less than a pleasure. She has been so responsive and has looked out for our travelers on all our trips. She helps set up trip previews for our group (also available on her website in recorded format in case travelers miss the preview meeting on Zoom). She books all travel arrangements and helps in cases where travel is interrupted by Covid. She really cares about each traveler. I highly recommend her.
