The Best Travel Agent EVER!
Reviewed By JH - Seattle, WA | Traveled to USA
Dawn is one of the most knowledgable, personable, seasoned and detail oriented travel agent I've had the pleasure to work with. She has handled both my national and international travel for years, both personally and professionally. I've become so spoiled by her knowledge and experience, I find it very hard to book anything without her help! She is fantastic, dependable, and so nice to work with. Five stars! Won't find anyone better.

Not our last trip to New Zealand
Incredible New Zealand trip ever! From Auckland's waterfront to Rotorua's geothermal wonders, Bay of Islands' stunning beauty, Christchurch's food, Queenstown's adrenaline rush, and Doubtful Sound's serene fjords—every moment was a breathtaking adventure. New Zealand, we have to come back. You have our hearts.

Australia Trip of a lifetime!
"Our Australia journey, spanning Sydney, Ayers Rock, and Hamilton Island, was absolutely incredible. Sydney's iconic landmarks and cultural diversity left us awestruck. Ayers Rock's sheer grandeur and spiritual significance were profoundly moving. Hamilton Island was a tropical paradise, with pristine beaches and the Great Barrier Reef at our doorstep. What truly made our trip unforgettable were the warm and welcoming Australians we met along the way. This adventure was a blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and unforgettable experiences. We can't express enough gratitude to Dawn Thompson and the people we encountered for making it our best trip ever. Australia has captured our hearts, and we're already planning our return."

Australia Anniversary Trip
We had a fantastic time in Australia! It is a beautiful country! We definitely could’ve used more time there, I feel like we’ve barely scratched the surface. I want to thank you again for all your help in putting everything together for us & for advising us while we were there as well. We liked the rocks, opera house tour & Sunset bridge climb! The sites were stunning, views amazing & beaches were beautiful. In Melbourne we loved the penguin parade & the great ocean road. Reef sleep was truly unique to Australia. This was an experience that I am so glad we did. A big highlight was the helicopter ride over the reefs & landing on White Haven Beach. That silica sand is like flour in your hands. We loved the air tram up through the rainforest to Kuranda & the scenic train ride back. Gold class was an excellent choice. The Koala holding at Kuranda was fantastic! It was such a romantic, beautiful, & special experience that we will never forget. Thank you again, Judy Jubas
