Best trip EVER!!
Reviewed By Kim - Peninsula, Ohio | Traveled to Alaska | USA
I can’t recommend Gretchen highly enough! She planned the most incredible trip to Alaska for us and every detail was absolutely perfect! From the breathtaking glaciers and wildlife tours to the smooth transportation between areas,everything was seamless!
What really stood out was the personal touch! Gretchen took the time to craft an itinerary that balanced adventure, relaxation, and stunning natural beauty! We saw whales in Juneau, explored Denali national park, and even got to experience walking on a glacier-something we will never forget!
If you are thinking about visiting Alaska and want a stress free, expertly organized trip filed with unforgettable memories, look no further than Gretchen! This was easily one of the best travel experiences we’ve had and we owe it all to Gretchen!

Agent Extraordinaire
Reviewed By CSN - Smithville, Ohio | Traveled to Denali National Park | Alaska | USA
Gretchen designs trips based on participants' input. A great communicator, she patiently answered (& re-answered ;) all of our questions. Gretchen excels at creating a seamless travel experience - whether engaging local greeters, tour guides and/or alternative modes of transportation. Finally, she arranges local activities that are genuine and informative. My husband and I have traveled on 3 or 4 Gretchen trips (losing count!) and have signed up for 2 more - we are fans.

Kenyan safari

Knowing Gretchen had been on this particular safari, we felt confident it was going to be amazing. She was there with an abundance of information and walked us through every step at the appropriate time. Gretchen’s enthusiasm and excitement for our trip kept us looking forward to the experience.

Beyond Incredible
Reviewed By ooxxangela - Nashville, TN | Traveled to Kenya | Africa
From the moment our itinerary landed in my inbox, I knew this journey through Kenya would be special—but it far exceeded even my highest hopes. Gretchen, our phenomenal travel planner, curated a safari experience that struck the perfect balance between adventure, cultural immersion, and restorative luxury.
Whether it was the seamless airport transfers, the warm welcomes at each lodge, or the gentle nudges to try something new and thrilling, Gretchen’s attention to detail was astounding. I never once had to question what came next—everything unfolded like a well-crafted story, from sunrise game drives to twilight dinners.
Each place we stayed offered a distinct flavor of Kenya’s beauty—open-air suites overlooking the savannah to cozy eco-lodges with staff who greeted us like family. There was comfort, charm, and local character in every room.
What truly made this trip unforgettable was the way we connected with Kenya’s vibrant culture and extraordinary wildlife. We danced with local communities, listened to ancient stories by firelight, marveled at elephants grazing near our camp, and stared in awe as wildlife dashed across the horizon. It wasn’t just sightseeing—it was soul-seeing.
If you’re dreaming of a journey that goes beyond the ordinary, Gretchen is the kind of planner who doesn’t just get you there—she makes sure you live the magic. Kenya stole my heart, and Gretchen made sure I could give it freely.
1000% going back

Alaskan Adventure
Reviewed By Chris - Richmond, IN | Traveled to Alaska | USA
We went on a one week Alaskan cruise that started in Vancouver. We stopped in Ketchican, Juno, Skagway, and ended in Whittier. From there we were on land for an additional week. We took prearranged buses and trains to 3 different Princess Lodges, including Denali, Fairbanks, and Copper I can't believe how much of Alaska we saw in two weeks! At the same time, I feel like we had ample time to enjoy each area we visited both on and off of the cruise ship.
I went on an excursion that included a bus and train ride through beautiful scenic Alaska. On this excursion we went across the Canadian border to visit the Yukon.
I love wildlife and saw so much of it. I saw eagles, ravens, humpback whales, killer whales, dolphins, sea lions, otters, moose, bears, snowhare, and dall sheep!
We were able to enjoy 4 amazing national parks, including Denali and Wrangell-St Elias on the land portion of the trip and Glacier Bay, and Kenai Fjords from the cruise ship!
Alaska is huge and I truly feel as though I saw a whole lot of it! I learned things I didn't know about Alaska and what I thought I already knew was even better than I imagined. I could really feel that Alaska is "The Last Frontier" and "The Land of the Midnight Sun".
I feel like the rich Native American history and the Sled Dogs were such a real and engrained part of Alaska. I loved learning about them. Seeing and learning about the Alaskan Pipe Line was interesting and panning for gold was so much fun.
This was truly a safe and luxurious Alaskan Adventure!

Always available.
Reviewed By GN - Ohio | Traveled to Alaska | USA
While traveling with Gretchen I could always ask/text her with questions and she replied promptly. She also made sure everyone knew when and where to be for group events. And if there were too many people around to verify if we made it to a certain area she would text us to make sure we didn't miss the boat/bus/train!

We have this amazing travel agent, Gretchen Naumoff, that creates the most exciting adventures. Our latest adventure was in Alaska. She prepared us with packing ideas, lodging information, and picked out the best excursions. She even suggested bringing magnetic hooks for our cabin on the cruise ship to hang our lanyards, etc. Who knew!! She is very detailed in every aspect. I recommend Gretchen to all my friends. I would never use anyone else. She’s the best!!

A Dream Safari Come True - Thanks to Gretchen!
Reviewed By Dawn - Nashville, TN | Traveled to Kenya | Africa
Planning a bucket list trip with my girlfriends was no small feat, but Gretchen made it feel effortless—and absolutely magical. From the moment we shared our dream of an African safari adventure, she took the reins with passion, precision, and a deep understanding of what would make this trip unforgettable.
Every detail was perfectly curated: luxurious lodges with breathtaking views, thrilling game drives where we saw the Big Five (and then some!), and seamless transitions between destinations that made us feel like VIPs. She even surprised us with a hot air balloon ride over the safari. It was a bucket list item accomplished, and it was more than we could have ever imagined.
What truly set her apart was her personal touch. She listened to our hopes, quirks, and must-haves, and turned them into a custom itinerary that felt like it was made just for us—because it was. Her insider knowledge, local connections, and 24/7 support gave us peace of mind and let us focus on soaking up every
