Ecuador-Volcanoes, Rainforests, Wild landscapes!

This was our first time using a travel agent to plan our vacation, and to say we were nervous about it would be an understatement. However, after working with Brinda, I can say without hesitation that I would utilize her services again. She did a great job listening to what we would like to do for our tours and booked through reputable tour agencies. We also very much appreciated her suggestions on what to do and see on our “free days.” She took all the guess work out of how we were going to get places by booking transportation to each place which made the entire experience stress free. Before we left, she had given us a very detailed outline of what we would be doing each day which was appreciated and even included a couple of little gifts. There was even an incident that occurred while we were abroad, where weather was impacting the time of our tour and Brinda made sure to get a hold of us to let us know what was happening. We would recommend her to anyone planning a trip!

Brinda was fantastic to work with. She thought of everything to make our trip one of the best!

From the first time I spoke with Brinda up until I called and told her what a fantastic time we had in the Bahamas, she answered all my questions and was very pleasant. I totally recommend her.

Have worked with Brinda on several occasions and has always provided stellar service. She gives us what we are asking for ! This trip, we had a very large group with several different needs, and she gave us individual service while still providing a group experience

She was very professional and worked with us to customize our trip and tours based on our interests.

She had very good knowledge of the destination and sightseeing areas that we should cover.

She made excellent choices of hotels and tour recommendations.

It was a great family trip.

Brinda is very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. Our trip to Africa has really been amazing because she had planned it so well. She was always listening to our needs and whenever we had questions she would answer them right away.I would definitely recommend Brinda for any travel needs.

I have worked with Brinda at Alpha Travel for several years and every time has been a pleasure. We planned a trip to Africa in 5 weeks time - and with that expedited schedule, Brinda led us step by step to prepare. She also handled all the details, including the entire itinerary. Every vacation that Brinda has handled for my family has been fully thought out and executed -- and every detail covered. What I like about working with Brinda is that she understands what you like to do and then recommends itineraries that fit. When I want to go on vacation, I turn to Brinda every time.

Brinda is a pleasure to work with. She listens to requests and offers valuable information.

We really enjoyed our trip to Italy thanks to Brinda's excellent planning. Over ten days, we got to see Venice, Florence, Cinque Terre, and Rome- visiting all the big sight seeing spots and having enough time to relax and enjoy the wonderful food and wine! Brinda had planned fantastic tours for us in Venice and Rome. We got to hike through Cinque Terre and bike ride through Tuscan hills on a winery tour. We were also easily able to reach Brinda if we needed to make any adjustments to our itinerary which was very helpful!

Excellent! Brinda helped us arrange 2 weeks of travel in Italy (Venice, Florence/Tuscany, Rome, Sorrento/Capri/Amalifi Coast). It was a fantastic trip! We thoroughly enjoyed every city; the sights, foods, wine, people, hotels, tours, activities, everything was great! She was very attentive / responsive at every turn and even followed up with us throughout our trip. She provided appropriate options truly based on our requests with recommendations 100% aligned to our preferences. Where different options were available she provided detail / information but never pushed. Brinda truly looks out for her customers.

Brinda is a gem! She was highly recommended & we are more than happy & grateful for her services. She is very detail oriented, clear & concise, paid close attention to what we were looking for, & delivered as promised. She also made herself available, even while she was traveling herself! advised us not to hesitate to call for any questions or concerns, but there was no need for that, everything went as planned.

She also had sent us a gift that we found very useful during our travel - totally unexpected on our part and very grateful that she had thought about it.

I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her for our future travels.

Very thorough with her planning.

Brinda helped to execute our trip with seven people of various ages in a very seamless way. I was not worried about transfers, communication, etc. because Brinda was always available to help troubleshoot. She also helped brainstorm activities for all ages and ensured that they were executed with ease.

Brinda was amazing to work with! She was so attentive and kind. She provided great input on our thoughts for our honeymoon and everything was organized in our itinerary making travel extremely smooth. Even while in Greece, Brinda was very quick to reply and help us with any question despite the time difference. We would absolutely recommend Brinda for anyone planning a trip and look forward to working with her again in the future!

Brinda was flawless! She found a beautiful all-inclusive resort within my budget ($1500pp) and handled our transportation needs in Mexico. The family trip was for my parents' anniversary and my mother's birthday. My mother was blown away and had the trip of her life. I could not have asked for more. I already am trying to figure out where to go next :)

Brinda planned out and booked our honeymoon to Ireland and it was an amazing experience! She was able to accommodate our budget and book us great locations and a thorough itinerary that included both sight seeing and leisure. We never felt rushed during the trip and really felt like we got to experience life in southern Ireland, from live local music at a pub in Killarney to bike riding along the coast of Galway. At the same time we were able to hit the tourist spots like Cliffs of Moher, Blarney Castle and the Guiness factory.

Brinda helped us plan a girlfriends' trip to Machu Picchu, handling all the details of a multi-city itinerary in Peru, including a spectacular guided tour of the Inca Trail, Machu Picchu and Wayna Picchu. She worked very patiently with us as we designed the trip, answering our many questions and ensuring we would have the trip of a lifetime. We couldn't recommend her more!

Brinda was great to work with. We received an itinerary along with travel vouchers, train tickets etc. Our trip to Italy was planned with our constant input. Our hotels were great and we saw a lot of Sorrento, Rome, Florence and Venice. We designed the trip with my husbands health needs in mind so we toured from 8-1ish each day. Had a wonderful time meeting our drivers and English speaking tour guides. I would highly recommend the private tour with Brinda.

From the moment we walked into the office we knew Brinda would take care of us, she answered all of our questions and provided excellent communication throughout the process of booking our trip, very knowledgeable, very professional!! Thank you for making our Ireland trip an easy process!!

Brinda was awesome, she listened to what we wanted as a family and responded with packages that fit our needs and budget! Also I went to their office several times and if Brinda wasn't in Nick (Brinda's counterpart) was there and was able to help. They were so in tune and both helped me everytime ... this event was awesome and seemless, we had personal transfers (recommended) and tours, it was like the vacation was hand picked for my family, just perfect! I would certainly recommend Alpha Travel anytime. I cant wait for the next trip!

This is the second time we have used Brinda for our travel plans. It is always enjoyable and our travel is seamless. Now worry or hassle and Brinda is always at our finger tips for anything questions we have or anything we need.

Brinda set up literally everything we wanted for our trip. And when we found ourselves unable to attend one excursion, she handled the cancellation and the refund process! She made our first trip to Europe an absolute breeze. This is my second time using her services and it will not be the last. I've already recommended her to my friends looking to travel. I completely trust her when it comes to cultivating a great vacation.

I have had the pleasure of working with Brinda on numerous family and business trips and her dedication to the small details is amazing. She is tireless in her working and reworking complex itineraries and in making sure every detail is covered, confirmed and re confirmed. In my last trip to Italy several critical travel items changed and even with the time change she was available in the middle of the night to ensure our travel was not interrupted. I cannot express how important and comforting to know you have a real pro backing you up!

Brinda planned a spectacular trip. Her attention to detail made for an experience of a lifetime.

Brinda was AMAZING. We traveled out of the country for the first time and she made us feel so comfortable and took care of everything. When we arrived at the airport she already a shuttle scheduled to take us to our hotel. All of our tours were pre-scheduled which saves us a lot of time. She was able to work with our budget and I have appreciated all of her hard work.

Brinda helped us with a recent two week trip to Italy. The trip turned out to be fabulous due to Brinda’s expert advice. We were especially pleased with the tours that she recommended. Each was led by an extremely knowledgeable guide in the subject field, which included art historians as well as archeologists. Our transportation and transfers were also perfect. Everything went smoothly and we had no problems moving from city to city, in spite of the language difference. We were always met by an English speaker guide or driver at each destination. The ease of our trip is especially noteworthy as we were a party of six, thus requiring larger vehicles for all transfers.

Brinda is an amazing person, who knows her profession so well. Any part of the world you question her about, she will know where to travel to. Very informative. and she exactly knows what her clients wants in their vacation and she provides that. I would not travel anywhere without Brinda's input.

Brinda is exceptional to work with. Five star service. Brinda checks up on you throughout your trip with reminders, updates etc she is always their to assist you

We had a very positive experience. Brinda was extremely helpful in planning our itinerary. She answered questions promptly and helped us organize all of the logistics. We were most impressed with Brinda once we were on our trip. She remained in constant communication with us to help reconfirm excursions and transfers.

Always knowledgeable and available any time we needed her. First class accommodations and excursions. She really knows her stuff. We are considering our next destinations and would of course work with Brinda again.

We have worked with Brinda the last few times we have gone on vacation and she is a pleasure to work with! We tell her what we want to spend and what we are looking for in a trip and she gives us options and finds us the best bang for our buck while meeting all of our needs.

When we went to Brinda we had a good outline for a Peru-Argentina trip but she was able to made some refinements that improved our plans. Her reservation work (flights, connections, hotels and tours) was completed in a timely manner, vouchers arrived and we were off. Unfortunately for us we were unable to complete the tail end of our trip due to entry restrictions imposed by Argentina (virus related). Brinda was able to quickly find and book return flights for us so we were able to avoid the problems that many other travelers experienced. She is currently helping us with our travel insurance claim processing.

Brinda was very kind, helpful and quick at booking my trip. I decided to join some people on a trip very last minute. She got me booked right away!

Brinda responded in a timely manner to all of our questions and concerns! We were extremely impressed with the itinerary and the recommendations that she gave us! We didn’t want to do a guided tour on our trip to Ireland and we communicated this with Brinda. She selected excellent hotels and gave great suggestions for our trip! We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will definitely be working with Brinda for all future travel plans!

Brinda was very knowledgeable about everything from where to stay, what to see and how to get there. Without her we would not have had the experience that we did. Five star magic!!!

Brinda was excellent to work with! She heard our desires for our trip and over delivered!! She was always prompt with responses during the setting up of our trip and trust me, we had plenty of questions! She developed a trip that had just enough adventures (and in our style of travel and touring) with enough days of "on our own", The excursions were fantastic and the people she put together to help us were absolutely lovely! We had a wonderful personal driver in Positano that drove a really nice car, was friendly enough, but also gave us our personal time. We had a super fun excursion on a semi-private cruiser that took us around Capris with swimming in the grottos and touring the island. Just to name a couple of things she planned for us. Brinda was always available during our trip for any questions or concerns that we had. We will use Brinda for all of our trips going forward!

The best!! She knows her stuff, very happy with the outline and recommendations she made.

Very knowledgeable about places and will to plan the places and activities you want to do!

Brinda did an excellent job finding adventures, providing comfortable lodging, and giving us many different transportation options. She is very good at her job and made our trip to Alaska amazing!! She worked hard to find adventures in different parts of the state that we thought were incredible! She was very easy to work with and she was always there is we had a question .

She has been my sole agent on all things domestic and abroad for 20+ yrs. The best. Always there for questions, or emergencies 24/7

My wife and I took a trip to Italy and it was an experience to remember, especially because of how planned out it was. Brinda provided great recommendations and we enjoyed all parts of the trip. We highly recommend Brinda for your travel needs!

Brinda takes special interest in understanding the group's interests and tailoring the entire trip. She knew our family likes to hike - she planned some very memorable hikes in our itinerary. Brinda also took care of acclimatizing us to the elevation by gradually getting us to Cusco.

She was always accessible, even when she herself was travelling.

We had some delays with our onward air travel to Peru. Her team quickly worked alternatives to ensure we did not miss the connecting flights.

We look forward to planning more trips with her in the future.

I claim Brinda as "my travel agent" in speaking with friends because I can't imagine working with anyone else to help me plan my vacations. Brinda listens to what you like to do, where you may want to go, understands your budget and then offers options. Once you choose, that is it - Brinda takes care of everything. Her attention to detail and knowledge of places to travel to experience new things is amazing. A few of the destinations Brinda helped me to experience: Africa, St.Lucia, Costa Rica. Plus a couple US destinations, Whistler and Hawaii

Brinda is the consummate professional! Her planning is comprehensive, thorough, and she really takes the time to understand what you want out of travel.
Brinda planned a 3 week trip for 4 couples with overlapping itineraries, different day trips, and many stops. She was able to coordinate and plan fantastic private tours and drivers. Her knowledge is extensive with a deep network of contacts.
The best part is her availability for support during the trip.

Brinda was very easy to work with. She was very responsive to emails, my questions and a couple of issues that arose. She designed an almost 3 week trip that was full of great things to see but wasn't so much that we were exhausted. We had plenty of free time to explore or rest as we wanted. The hotels were all in excellent locations and were very nice. I would recommend using Brinda, especially for first time travelers and for an extensive trip.

Brinda was great throughout the entire experience planning our honeymoon. Not a single thing went wrong during our 2-week trip and we have Brinda to thank. She planned everything from hotels, transfers, and experiences. She was flexible and accommodating when we asked if things could be changed prior to our departure. She was also honest and forthright, letting you know what would and would not work in your budget. Brinda seemed to always be available, responding to questions very quickly both before and during our trip. Thanks for an experience of a lifetime, Brinda!

Brinda was very prompt in assisting me. She delivered the exact itinerary I was looking for and made our trip as smooth as possible. She kept in touch throughout my trip to make sure everything was going great, and she responds promptly as well. I 100% recommend Brinda to anyone looking for a travel agent!

Brinda was great to work with in planning our vacation to Hawaii. She knew all the nice locations to book our condos as she is very familiar with all the islands. She is quick to respond to my questions via email/ text or a phone call. I had never used an agent before but with COVID rules I wanted to make sure we had all bases covered. She planned a wonderful itinerary for us and I will definitely have her plan future trips.

I've been working with Brinda since 2015. I trust her with all of my trips, and have recommended her to my friends & family for the same. She makes travel easy, handling every single detail. She has great advice and expansive knowledge. For our honeymoon and with the uncertainty of Covid, we let Brinda take the wheel. We had no idea where we should go. She planned the most wonderful vacation in Costa Rica. It was the perfect combination of relaxation and adventure. The accommodations were unbelievable. She made it so very special for us. She's not only planned my honeymoon, she planned my brother & sister-in-law's honeymoon. She planned a family trip where 4 couples wanted to stay in the same villa with separate master bedrooms but shared living space. She even planned a quick Mexico getaway three days before we wanted to depart. She's incredible! I don't know what we'd do without her.

She is a great agent very professional very kind

Brinda, arranged a great 9 day adventure vacation exploring key highlights in Iceland. The hotel accommodations in Reykjavik and Akureyri were great with everything being 5 to 10 minute walk. The excursions and activities were with small groups and the guides provided background history of the sites we visited. Will definitely book another vacation with Brinda.

Very professional and knowledgeable.

There are not enough words to describe how thorough Brinda is when arranging trips. She listens intently to what you have to say and what you want out of your vacation. Her extensive knowledge and personal experience make her the ideal travel agent.

Our trip to Africa was unbelievable! We went to Kenya, Zimbabwe, Tanzania and South Africa. A driver or guide met us at each airport, had our itinerary and made us feel well taken care of. We truly trusted Brinda's recommendations on where to stay, both hotels and tent camps. The hot air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara was spectacular as were the several safari drives. The three-day rail ride on the Rovos Rail was a delightful experience.

When you book with Brinda and Alpha travel you are in good hands!

Amazing service, easy to deal with. Couldnt recommend a better person to deal with. Was spot on with our tours, the guides she hired were amazing to work with. Couldnt have asked for a smoother experience!

Brinda made our dream vacation a reality! My wife discovered her services, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very first consultation to the final details, Brinda was nothing short of amazing. Her attentiveness to our preferences and her ability to plan every aspect of our trip with precision made this an unforgettable experience. Every detail of our journey was flawlessly executed. The flights, hotel accommodations, and transfers were perfectly arranged, making our travels completely stress-free. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing—Brinda ensured everything ran smoothly and effortlessly. What stood out most was her personalized approach. Brinda took the time to understand what we were looking for and tailored our itinerary to match. She was always available to answer questions and made sure we felt supported every step of the way. Her professionalism and expertise shone through in every interaction. Thanks to Brinda, we enjoyed a truly seamless and unforgettable vac

It was a great experience.

Brinda is a PLEASURE to work with! VERY Understanding! She doesn't mind answering all my questions, even the questions, that my husband says, are ridiculous! Brinda will answer all questions, never making you feel ridiculous for asking.
I really appreciate the added knowledge & information I received about the seating on the plane. I had no idea how much more comfortable it was to sit in priority/premium seating. It's not first class and it's not economy, it's the in between. It is definitely worth the extra money! I will NEVER fly long distance without that comfort!
Brinda made all of our hotel & transfers for our Italy vacation. I felt very trusting that all of our arrangements would go through without a hitch, and they all worked out beautifully!
I enjoy working with Brinda!
Also, we found out how good she was through our good friend Rudy.
He also praises her for all her effort and hard work :)


THANK YOU :)

Excellent at her craft!! Very knowledgeable and worked very well with my wife and myself about our wishes for our trip

Brinda listened to want we wanted on our Anniversary Vacation and scheduled a wonderful trip with everything scheduled perfectly

It has always been a pleasure working with Brinda! She has gotten to know us well and I have never been disappointed on any of our vacations!
From Europe, Mexico, Alaska, Cruises and Land Packages!
When running into issues while on vacation, she has always been available to help! I would trust her opinion from ideas where to vacation, down to picking a place that suits you. We have traveled as a couple, and also with
groups! I would highly recommend Brinda!

Excellent experience with the agent. Very gracious and helpful at every step of the way. Promptly responds to all questions. Very accomodative to our needs.

We booked twice a family trip to Dubai and Abu Dhabi with our travel agent, Brinda, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough! Traveling with kids can already be a bit stressful, but she made the whole process smooth, easy, and enjoyable. Brinda’s cultural insights were absolutely invaluable — she didn’t just book our trip, she helped us understand what to see, what to expect, and how to make the most of every moment. Her communication was always on point, and she was available whenever I had a question or needed to tweak something. She worked patiently with all my requests and still managed to get us amazing deals. Most importantly, she helped us create unforgettable memories as a family. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring to plan your trip, Brinda is the person you want. ????

Brinda’s knowledge helped so I can make it betterto plan a seamless uncomplicated experience. Our trip could not have been better. Our accommodations were top-of-the-line and well planned. We highly recommend this trip to others and Brinda to plant it. We had a wonderful time.

I have to say, this has been a dream trip of a lifetime! Not only did we go with the best of friends, everything went so smoothly and was put together for us so perfectly! THANK YOU BRINDA! We wouldn't have had this great experience without Brinda putting it all together for us! We went to 4 different locations in Sardinia & Sicily! The hotels were fantastic! Even our flights! Great locations! All of our excursions went perfectly on time! We had a ton of fun! Can't wait to plan another trip! THYANK YOU BRINDA!!

I have used Brinda for years and yet again she did not disappoint. From upgrading flights to co-ordinating drivers , tours and Hotels the trip to both these amazing destinations were seamless and on point. Nothing to think about but the scenery and amazing food. Thank you again for making my vacations stress free. We HIGHLY recommend Brinda and have referred her often.

We had a marvelous vacation…Starting with a marvelous hotel stay & day which was complete with touring Seattle to our 7 day Alaska cruise. The ship experience was amazing & the excursions over the top. Five stars!! ?? ????????

I went to Alaska with family. There were four of us and this was our first cruise. All I can say is that Brinda did a great job! She took care of all transportation, excursions and we had a great time on our ship Eurodam. Our cabin was great and Holland America provided great entertainment and different variety of places to eat. We have no complaints in fact we are thinking about going to Hawaii with Holland America. The Eurodam worked well for us considering We wanted a smaller ship. (Approx. 2100) Passengers. Thinking about a cruise or other travel needs, contact Brinda you will be in good hands, She is very knowledgeable and was always available to answer our questions. Our Alaska cruise was unbelievable, Thanks Brinda!

Brinda was superb to work with. She put together a travel itinerary that was exactly what we wanted, answered all our questions and stayed with us through the entire trip. That included responding to midnight texts! Our trip went very smoothly thanks to all the support we received from people whom Brinda had lined up at every point. Brinda gave me a beautiful book on our destination that enhanced the experience very much.

We have already asked Brinda to help us with another trip and I have recommended her to a colleague.

We worked with Brinda to help us plan our trip to Dijon, Beaune and Avignon France. She is very easy to work with and planned our trip the way we asked her to. Would recommend and use again!

My wife and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary in Greece. We have never traveled to Europe before and needed help planning the trip. I researched travel agents specializing in "Greece Travel", and after a few phone interviews, I knew Brinda Amin was the right agent for us. Brinda took the time to ask questions about our budget, what we wanted with our experience, what type of travelers we are, and how much we wanted to immerse ourselves in the culture. Brinda created an itinerary with details regarding our travel, transfers, personalized guided tours including the Acropolis in Athens, a personal driver in Santorini and Naxos, a walking tour and cooking class (with wine) in a 13th-century medieval citadel, and so much more. We traveled from Athens to Santori via a 50mph, luxurious, giant Sea Ferry, while enjoying our travel in the VIP Section with a personal butler service that kept the wine and bubbles flowing. 3 locations total, starting with Athens in the Plaka District in a boutique hotel in the center of all the action. Santorini was breathtaking. Our hotel was small and built into the mountain with views that you could never tire from. We arrived in Naxos with concern; the initial views weren't as striking and the hotel not as dramatic...but it did not take long for Naxos to capture our hearts. The beach was incredible! The water was so clear and beautiful! We enjoyed a personal tour of the island; we ate and drank where the locals did. I can't say enough about the kindness and hospitality that the people of Greece showed us. The food was outstanding; the people were incredible and the memories that we made will warm our hearts forever. Brinda planned our trip like she knew us for years and checked in with us a few times during our vacation. I emphatically recommend Brinda Amin and Alpha Travel for you destination needs. A++

Our whole family toured Poland with another family. We visited 5 cities, Gdansk, Turon, Warsaw, Krakow and Zakopane. Brinda helped us plan all the transportation, lodging and tours. She did a great job and was on top of it everyday. She was always availible whenever we texted her and reconfirmed our transportation and tour guides to each city. We had a wonderful family vacation. i appreciate all the work she and Nick did in putting this trip together for 2 families with 3 generations of people. 17 people. We all enjoyed ourselves and will have very fond memories of this trip.

Our trip to Poland was great. Brinda and Nick did a super job coordinating this trip for 17 people. Everything worked smoothly. The hotels were great and the transportation from town to town was excellent. Brinda was always available when we had questions and took care of our changes. I would highly recommend them for any future travel.

Boys wanted to go to California. I was clueless. Brenda made recommendations and booked everything. Very helpful and on point.

Why do we keep going back to Brinda?!? Well for many years Brinda has helped us book multiple vacations. Her honest feedback and dedication has been key. We are a family of six and it's important we go to family friendly destinations. She always gives us good advise and finds great deals!

I have been using Brinda and Alpha Travel for my vacation travels for almost 10 years. I give her an idea on where I’d like to visit and she always provides me with 3 or 4 different itineraries with different suggestions. She knows what I am looking for when I go out of town, I know I am in excellent hand and don’t have to worry about anything....except packing my bags. She plans it all; from transfers to and from airport to the best quality hotels in prime location. She will always plan a day tour and give suggestions on what you should see. You will always get her honest opinion and I have never been disappointed. Can’t wait to book my next trip with her.

Just fantastic! working with Brinda made our planning and trip so extra enjoyable! this was our first European trip and we were very apprehensive! Brinda made our trip and experience awesome!
