Gorgeous sunsets

Reviewed By Julie M - Provo, UT | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico

Just took my first big trip since the pandemic started. Called Angela Hughes at Trips & Ships Luxury Travel to book it. Had the best time a the Hotel Riu Vallarta in Nuevo Vallarta (about 40 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta). Never even left the resort. Loved this beachfront property with everything right there. Wonderful Junior Suite with wrap around balcony overlooking the mountains on one side and oceanfront on the other. Gorgeous views everywhere we looked. Hotel was spotless; staff cleaned day and night, even our balcony. Absolutely bug free as well. I've never been so impressed with a hotel's maintenance and staff. Multiple dining options including their fabulous international dining room. Fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, and anything you could possible dream of and wish for! Good entertainment. Family oriented. Easy access beach. Gorgeous sunsets. Perfect 82 degree weather with a slight breeze. Perfect!!

50th Birthday Bash!

Reviewed By Britton Albiston - Bedford, NH | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe

Angela worked her magic creating a trip to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. We took all our kids and it was their first time. They were teens to adults and all wanted to see something different. She fit it all in and knew some special small towns we would also love that are not typical tourist stops. She knew when we needed a private driver (like first off the flight when you're tired) and when we would enjoy public transportation. It was two weeks we will never forget. Highly recommend Angela-even if your dream trip seems complicated!

Embarking on a safari adventure in South Africa was truly an experience of a lifetime. Thanks to the excellent service of Trips & Ships Luxury Travel, I was able to stay at two of the most luxurious and breathtaking lodges, Ulusaba and Kapama.

There's no place like New York City. And that's especially true if you're visiting for the first time. The city can be overwhelming, but Angela Hughes can help you make the most of your trip. We saw SIX Broadway, tour all of the sites. Time Square is always packed. Central Park is beautiful, but it's also huge - you could get lost for hours. Fall was on point this year with leaves changing colors in the park. And on 5th Avenue, the stores are so big they could fit a small town inside. Angela Hughes can create an itinerary that includes all the must-see sights and leaves time for exploring on your own. She can help you make the most of your time in New York City.

Traveling to the Galapagos was an incomparable experience.

Tanzania was my first trip to Africa, and it certainly won't be my last. The highlights of my safari included seeing the big five – lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo, and rhinos – as well as the great migration. However, what really made the trip special was spending time with my family in a private jeep with a guide and staying a luxury tented camp. At first, I wasn't excited about the idea of Africa, but it ended up being my favorite vacation with my family. The food was outstanding, and the service from Trips & Ships Luxury Travel was impeccable. Our travel expert, Angela Hughes, was extremely knowledgeable about Africa and safaris, and she helped us make the most of our time in Tanzania. I will cherish the memories of our trip for a lifetime. She recommended on the end that we stay in Zanzibar on the beach and that was a perfect ending to a fabulous trip.

This trip is truly a memory that will last forever

Reviewed By Richard R. - Orlando, FL | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA

We would like to say thank you for all your advice, guidance and expertise in putting together our Hawaiian vacation
So happy we had the opportunity to visit 4 islands. All were different, providing great memories and a true flavor of Hawaii
Our only disappointment was on Kauai, it rained for 2 days, which cancelled our Na Pali coast sail cruise
We still did the island tour which let us see why they call Kauai the garden island.

Otherwise, everything about the vacation was wonderful, especially the hotels. Carol has never been so spoiled!
The rooms and their ocean view locations were spectacular. We always received first class treatment
We ended the trip on Big Island at the Fairmont Orchid hotel and this was by far our favorite hotel.
The hotel was beautiful and luxurious. The grounds and food are just fabulous. Service was over the top.

I contacted Angela when a friend and I decided to take a girls trip to Italy. It was our first time traveling there and I was excited but also overwhelmed and a bit nervous. Angela explained the different ways we could tour Italy and also gave us her recommendation based on what we wanted. We went on a Globus/Cosmos tour and met people from all over the world. We had plenty of free time but also a schedule that was smooth and easy. It made the trip 100% relaxing and exciting! Angela also built in extra time in Rome that we wanted. Great combination of individual trip with a group tour. It was more fun than I have words for!

We LOVED staying at the Baglioni on Sardinia

Reviewed By LizzyHope - London England | Traveled to Sardinia | Italy | Europe

I recently had the absolute pleasure of exploring the stunning island of Sardinia, and it was truly an unforgettable experience – all thanks to Trips and Ships Lux Travel, who planned everything flawlessly! From the moment we arrived, every detail was taken care of. The highlight? Boating across crystal-clear waters and snorkeling in hidden coves that felt like our own private paradise. The underwater scenery was magical – colorful fish, vibrant coral, and the kind of peace you only find when you're surrounded by nature. Each day ended with breathtaking sunsets that lit up the sky in shades of orange, pink, and gold – a perfect backdrop for relaxing after a day of adventure. What stood out most was the smooth, luxurious planning. Everything felt exclusive, personal, and effortlessly organized – allowing us to truly unwind and soak in every moment. We LOVED staying at the Baglioni. If you're dreaming of a trip to Sardinia that blends adventure, beauty, and comfort, I can't recommend Trips and Ships Lux Travel highly enough.

Thanks to Trips and Ships Luxury Travel for an outstanding experience From seamless planning to incredible recommendations every detail was taken care of making this quick London getaway unforgettable. We kicked things off with MJ the Musical, and wow what a performance. The energy, dancing, and vocals were electric. While Michael Jackson’s life remains controversial, the show focused heavily on his artistry and music, and from that perspective, it delivered a powerful, high-energy experience. The cast was phenomenal. Next up: Oliver! at the Gielgud Theatre. What a nostalgic treat. The production was rich, full of charm, and emotionally stirring.

Thanks for a great vacation

Reviewed By David O. - New York City | Traveled to Amalfi | Italy | Europe

The two of you pretty much nailed it. Just a great trip all around. It's going to take a little time to process all the great memories and pictures - so many wonderful highlights. At this risk of embarrassing her - we are just so impressed by Angie's Italy connectivity. Given the sheer number of pickups and drop offs, meet-ups and details, it's kind of amazing that everyone was on time and ready to go EVERY TIME. Just great. Just two items of note for future planning 1) The Villa was just great, but the wifi was not as advertised. I have a bunch of people who need to stay connected with jobs and businesses. The wifi was not working most of the time. I received many, many comments. 2) Dany's meals were wonderful - but the portions were too small for my multiple nephews with hearty appetites. Still - Just a super great trip. Thanks for everything.

Arctic Circle with Atlas

Reviewed By Brian H, - Winter Garden | Traveled to Arctic Ocean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea

I recently had the privilege of joining Angela Hughes on an Atlas Ocean Voyages expedition to the Arctic Circle, and it was an unforgettable experience. While we didn’t get to see the Northern Lights, the journey was still filled with awe-inspiring moments. The pristine beauty of the Arctic—its icy fjords, towering glaciers, and the surreal midnight sun—was more than enough to captivate everyone on board. Angela’s deep knowledge and passion for travel brought a unique perspective to every aspect of the voyage, making each day feel like a carefully curated adventure. From the spontaneous wildlife sightings to the enriching conversations under the endless daylight, this trip was anything but ordinary. If you’re seeking a luxurious, once-in-a-lifetime adventure in one of the world’s most remote regions, this is a journey you don’t want to miss.

My trip to Zimbabwe was an unforgettable experience - filled with breathtaking scenery, thrilling adventures, and warm-hearted locals.

We didn’t have any hot water for 4 days, and finally got warm water the last couple of days.
The room was the most expensive one they had on the beach.

Half the restaurants were closed at night, so we would half to wait an hour or 2 to eat.
The only other restaurant by the beach that you could just walk in, had the worst food ever.

Only drawback—very crowded in restaurants and pool area, they won’t let you reserve the cabanas—bummer! but that was due to holiday travel I assume.

Wonderful. Recommend Tauck over and over again. Room was great. Service great. Food and drinks were delicious and plentiful. It felt like we were a family by the end of the cruise.
Ship and local guides were wonderful. So friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. When I was nervous about disembarking in Basel and connecting to Colmar the Tauck rep and one of the ship guides gave me tutorial and also shared must do’s-which we did! (Visiting Colmar and the Alsace wine region was actually one of the impetuses for the adventure in the first place. It was magical-like walking into Beauty and the Beast set. I want to go back specifically to tour the Alsace wine region.) The markets bring unbelievable charm for sure-some of the booth architecture astounded more than the booth wares. It would be nice to go back and see the cities without the markets yet there are so many other places to explore.

Christmas Markets Europe

Reviewed By Sandra T. - Salt Lake City, UT | Traveled to Austria ~ Europe

Overall it was great. We had a wonderful time and I’m glad we went.

Our guide was good and the local guides were great. The last hotel we stayed at in Lucern was a decent hotel but way too noisy at night. They had a dance club or events going on both nights and you could hear it everywhere. It was extremely noisy until the wee hours of the morning while we were trying to sleep. I wouldn’t recommend that hotel or stay there again.

It was cold, naturally. The tour took us to most markets during the day and I wish we could have seen them lit up at night because the streets all had hanging lights that looked like they’d be beautiful when lit up. I’m not sure why it worked out that we couldn’t see the markets more at night. It wasn’t any colder at night than it was during the day.
All the people were really nice and I enjoyed everything we did. We had an ear piece so we could hear the guides when we went places and that was really nice. It helped a lot.

We finished our tour of Morocco in Casablanca, the country’s financial/industrial capital, and by far its largest city. We saw some beautiful examples of century old art deco architecture installed when the French took over the country. And of course we had to lunch at Rick’s Café.
The country is still relatively poor, but far better off than many of its neighbors. It is fully electrified and there was never a spot I didn’t have cell service, even in remote areas in the desert.

Prague & Christmas markets

Reviewed By Sandra T. - Utah | Traveled to Prague ~ Czech Republic ~ Europe

Everything went well and we had a really nice time. Our tour group was large; 48 people but it was okay and worked out better than I expected with a group that large. We liked the BoHo hotel in Prague. It was quiet and nice and we enjoyed staying there. All the transports worked out perfectly. If it could have been 10 degrees warmer, that would have helped. It was cold but we expected it to be cold and we were prepared. Prague is amazing anytime and it was especially lovely at Christmas. We had tickets to concerts every day when we were in Prague and they were spectacular. There’s just a really high caliber of musicians and performers in Prague. The concerts were a definite highlight. You can’t beat the spires and domes and architecture of Prague. The food is really good there too. I love choosing your business and I’m grateful that you will take care of me even though I’m not able to travel as much as I wish I could.

Seabourn and the French Riviera

Reviewed By E. Mary - Provo, UT | Traveled to France ~ Europe

This year we booked Seabourn for our Europe trip to the French Med. In the past, we have sailed on Celebrity and Royal Caribbean but this really took it to a higher level. Seabourn's small ships & the line's all-inclusive concept made it feel like we weren't "nickeled and dimed" liked the other lines, Seabourn's partnership with Angela made the experience even better and her expert planning and execution made the trip flawless. My favorite stop on the itinerary was Monaco. We stayed in Barcelona and Madrid a few days prior and she made sure we had VIP amenities at our hotels that we couldn't get booking direct.

I just returned from the most amazing trip to Italy and I have to say, it lived up to all of my expectations! Our travel agent, Angela Hughes, did an incredible job of designing a trip that incorporated all of our interests. We started in Florence, where we stayed in a luxury hotel and did a lot of shopping. Then we went to the Cinque Terre and Rome, which were both beautiful. We also went to Assisi and Orvieto, which were two places I had always wanted to visit. Capri was my favorite part of the trip - the food was incredible and the scenery was just like the photos .

Month Long WWII Trip

Reviewed By Ken - Salt Lake City | Traveled to Europe

I wanted to Thank You for helping Ken plan the most amazing trip to Europe. We experienced so many incredible places and people in our travels.
Ken was able to fulfill his dream of following his father's WWII footsteps. We had several Tender Mercy moments. One that comes to mind was in Barth, Germany. We couldn't find the place where the POW camp was. We stopped at a grocery store to ask for directions and no one could help us. As we were getting ready to leave, a woman pulled up, she SPOKE English and she knew where it was. We followed her to an out of the place area that we would have never found on our own. We learned that 1) she didn't live in Barth, she was out running errands and decided to stop at the grocery store. 2) she and her husband had been in Barth last year and went on a bike ride and found the monument telling about the POW camp.
I have so many great memories of the adventures we experienced. Thanks again! Sandy

Angela took care of everything and advised us when would be best day to leave for our honeymoon. She set us up at the Sandals Resort which was an over-the-top amazing experience. We would have never thought of going to this destination without her guidance and we still talk about how dreamy and perfect it was with all of the yummy food, culture, beautiful room, water sports and relaxing atmosphere. The Mediterranean cruise was the best way to see so many destinations in just one week. The charming islands and diversity of Turkey amazed me. Angela advised us to stay a few days in Rome before we left on the cruise in order to experience this stunning city. I was so grateful for that! Trips and Ships is top on my call list when booking a vacation with ease and with guaranteed desired results.

Knows everything and everyone

Reviewed By Dan - England | Traveled to

Having travelled with Angela twice now through Central America, I rely on her completely with my travel plans. It is amazing to have someone so personable create a vacation around your specific needs. What is even better is that Angela is very well connected in the areas that I have been on vacation to, which provides a great insight into the culture and community that we visit.

LOVE working with Angela

Reviewed By MSH - Washington D.C. | Traveled to

I have used Angela for a few trips and every time I'm blown away at her knowledge, responsiveness and ability to give exactly what we wanted! Angela is fun and friendly and makes it so easy to plan trips. I like to be busy when I travel, my wife likes to sit by the pool or on the beach. We're not easy clients, yet Angela can find trips that accommodate both of our needs and desires.

Best Agent Ever!

Reviewed By Kris M - Utah | Traveled to

Angela plans every trip with great detail. It is if she were planning the trip for her own family. She involves those going and gets the most in for the money spent. I highly recommend her. I have used other agents and they don't even come close.

Bermuda was Perfect

Reviewed By Dennis & Nancy - North Salt Lake City | Traveled to

We loved our trip to Bermuda that Angela set up for us out of NYC. We sailed on the NCL Breakaway and then did a couple of nights in New York where she helped us set up a schedule for the city and Broadway tickets. The location she picked was perfect. We love to go to her for advice and tips on how we can make our trip more affordable. We sailed last year with her group to Europe where every detail was taken care of. I would definitely recommend her for your future travel needs!

Great Trip

Reviewed By Nicole - Bedford, NH | Traveled to

Angela was so helpful in planning our family's winter vacation. We hadn't cruised before and with 3 children, we had a lot of questions. She helped us plan half of the trip in Orlando at Universal and the second half on a Carnival cruise. It was a fantastic trip and I will definitely book through Angela again.
