Extremely poor bus.
Reviewed By Itinerary Texas Sampler part 2 - Aubrey, Tx | Traveled to Houston | Texas | USA
Our places that we went to were all great except for the first stop at Kemah Boardwalk . A lot of the things were closed, we did have restaurant's open and about 3 stores. Not what was listed. Now as for the bus, it was the worst bus I have ever ridden. It must have needed shocks or struts because we actually waddled down the road. Almost all of the people riding the bus were having some signs of car sickness no matter where they were sitting. Everyone agreed that it was a terrible bus. Plus, I have pictures of the ceiling that was falling down, the bathroom window where the plastic covering so you couldn’t see out was ripped away, and the railing that the seats were attached to had dirt and crud in it. i will email them to you since there is no way to attach them to this. I would be embarrassed if I were you about putting us on that bus, it was awful. The bus driver was great, not his fault.
William Buvens responded
"This is not a fair evaluation of the service I provided you or your group, especially when all other messages about the trip have been very positive! You NEVER provided me the chance to fix the situation by waiting until 48 hours AFTER the trip was concluded to even bring these matters to my attention! 2 out of 26 people is not "Almost all" people on the bus. Your comments were misleading about Kemah Boardwalk, as there are only a couple of shops there, as it is mostly a dining and ride venue."

Our first bus trip
Reviewed By None - McKinney Texas | Traveled to Texas | USA
Enjoyed visiting and touring the central Texas cities. Would we do it again?Probably not. We did have a lot of bus time and the bus was not a luxury bus. It was an older bus that rattled and the seats were very uncomfortable. The bathroom was not sanitary - nothing to wash or clean hands with. When mentioned to the driver, he said he knew.
Hotels were adequate.
Bill was great to work with and kept us informed. Very responsive. Would use him for future personal travel.
William Buvens responded
"Thank you for the feedback on the bus. Your concerns have been passed on to the group leader.
I am sorry you did not feel my service was 5 -star, but I can only guess you marked it down due to your view of the condition of the bus.
I look forward to working with you in the future to show you true 5-star service! "

Bill was terrific. He was responsive, promptly answered all our questions, and he was imaginative.

Cruise
Reviewed By Jen - Summersville, Missouri | Traveled to Mexico
William (Bill) is an excellent agent all the way! We helped us book a group cruise for 13 people and got everything the way we wanted it. He also called us anytime there was a discount or an opportunity to upgrade. During this time of the pandemic, our cruise was canceled. Bill took care of the cancelation process and paperwork and we didn't have to stress about anything. I will be using him again to book our next vacation and I recommend him 100%!!

An excellent travel agent!

We found Bill to be hard working on our behalf while planning our family cruise, he answered all our questions, stayed in touch, gave helpful suggestions. When Covid 19 came along and our cruise was cancelled he again worked hard to get us our refunds, even giving up his refunded commission in one case. We would highly recommend him!

Vacation unfortunatley cancelled due to COVID-19
Reviewed By Curtis B - Baton Rouge, LA | Traveled to Grand Cayman ~ Cayman Islands ~ Caribbean
Bill was great to work with. He coordinated a multi-family cruise for us that was supposed to depart in June 2020, unfortunately due to COVID-19 the trip was cancelled by Carnival. Bill worked with us throughout the booking process, helping each family member select cabins and coordinate events. He also kept us informed of options after the cruise was cancelled for a credit or refund. We will definitely use Bill's services to re book our next vacation and I will highly recommend him to anyone looking for a referral.

Travel made easy!
Reviewed By Eb - New Orleans, LA | Traveled to Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
This is the sweetest man I have ever met! Our very first encounter I won a door prize from him and this lovely wife. I left it at the show and they took the time to personally deliver it to my house. You can definitely tell he loves what he does. He is very patient and knowledgeable. I trust his judgment and I could not see me planning any trips without him! He planned my bachelorette trip for me. While Covid 19 cause us to my some changes. William made sure that we were not taking advantage of and received the best deals and service for our money. Look forward to more traveling in the future.
