because Shelli has been to many of the locations we travel to She is invaluable in offering advise on where to stay, what to look out for and what trips are worth doing.I think that her attention to details is what sets her apart selecting what room to go for on a ship for example or recomending a tour guide.Traveling today has become complicated We have no hesitation in recomending Shelli as the very best.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

A first-class experience!
Reviewed By W & J White - Delta BC Canada | Traveled to Europe
As novice world travelers, we thoroughly enjoyed each place we touched down. In addition to the first class Emerald River Cruise, our visits to Paris, Basel, Amsterdam, and Brugge gave us a glimpse into the rich history of Europe. We're very thankful that Shelli engaged Railbookers to complete our rail travel and accommodation arrangements, as it certainly eliminated the stress of managing these details. Everything went well and according to plan - no hiccups at all. Shelli patiently and expertly guided us through all the planning and endless arrangements to ensure we enjoyed a carefree, adventurous vacation. Thank you!

First time to Europe and first experience with a travel agent
Reviewed By DiAsk59 - Delta BC Canada | Traveled to Rhine River | On the River | At Sea
We decided to plan a trip to Europe with another couple. We originally thought we would like to bike & barge because we are active seniors and heard good things about that type of trip. We went to Shelli for some help and the plan was a constant evolution on our part.... and Shelli just rolled with it. We couldn't quite figure out the best option for a bike & barge, and she recommended the river cruise (definitely an awesome way to travel) . Everything included, good itinerary - we thought that sounded good and then we just started throwing out ideas to work the that. We thought the Bernina Express (highly recommend ) would be a site to see. Why not check out Milan if the starting point for the Bernina was going to be Tirano, Italy! If we are ending the cruise in Amsterdam, we should go see Brugges Belgium before getting to Paris :) We had so many ideas and our friends had other ideas. We overlapped on the cruise and a bit more. Shelli made it all work. Set us up with the cruise, trains, hotels, tickets, etc. Everything went as planned and it was nice to know we could have called Shelli if it didn't, but there was no need. My trips for the next while will be camping again, but it's good to know I can call Shelli again if we plan another trip and I know our friends were very happy as well. An excellent adventure was had by all!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
