Client Testimonials

Celebrity Cruise to Alaska for Nursing Anniversary
"If you are planning a group trip-especially something as meaningful as a milestone anniversary- you want someone who truly understands how to bring it all together flawlessly. This is exactly what Yvette Taylor did for us." Our nursing class anniversary brought together over 5 nurses from all over the United States, many of whom hadn't seen each other in decades. Yvette coordinated every details of our Celebrity Cruise to Alaska, including pre-and-post cruise hotels, scenic train travel, transfers, and group logistics- and she did it seamlessly. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized. What truly sets Yvette apart is you never feel like just a booking. You feel supported before, during and after the trip.
Remy, G- Folsom, Ca
The Best Planner Ever!
Yvette really cares about her clients and it shows. She takes care of all the details and makes sure everything is perfect! We have never had a better travel agent.

Viking Cruise Expert
Yvette booked us on the Rhine River cruise, and it was the best decision ever! So smooth, stress-free, and truly breathtaking.
Jim K, Rhine River Cruise, Folsom, Ca
British Isles Cruise
Yvette took care of every single detail for our British Isles Explorer cruise. It was perfect from start to finish! We loved how she had been to so many of the places and gave us great advice. There is nothing compared to having someone know what they are talking about.
Robin Z, Folsom California
American Cruise Line Columbia and Snake River
Yvette planned our American Cruise line Columbia & Snake river cruise and it was absolutely amazing. Every detail was handled perfectly, and the excursions she recommended were spot on. The jet boat ride on the Snake River, was unforgettable and ended up being one of our favorite experiences of the entire trip. Thanks to Yvette's knowledge as a luxury cruise travel advisor, we fell in love with American Cruise Line. We trusted her completely, became loyal to the brand, and have now taken five more cruises with them. We only sail on small ships and we love how everything is included and in the US. She truly knows how to match her clients with the right cruise and make the whole experience effortless and special.
