Beyond the Golden Route

My sister and I worked with Amber to plan a trip to Poland, the country where our grandparents were from. The daily trips with excellent tour guides to the hotels where we stayed were amazing. We never could have done this without your guidance. Thank you.

I’ve done my fair share of traveling overseas solo, so I consider myself adept at planning out an itinerary. Key word being “solo”. When the opportunity presented itself for me to tag along on a trip with a group of people, this was not an option. I was very skeptical of actually hiring someone to do the planning for me as I can easily open up a browser and google: “things to do in Ireland”. That’s all well and good if I’m by myself since I know my own preferences for accommodations and the like. However, I was traveling with a group. One I’m pretty sure wouldn’t be cool with slumming it up in a hostel and spending a day or two walking a foreign town with no real objective in mind. This is where Travel Bliss stepped in. I personally would never have considered staying at a B&B in a small Irish community outside of your typical Airbnb listings. The result was a favorable experience with traditional Irish breakfasts and local hosts who were a pleasure to speak with! Our trip encompass

Amber saved the trip by quickly rescheduling our bucket list activity when weather conditions caused the provider to cancel the original reservation! Great service overall!

Amber thoughtfully designed the most memorable mother-daughter trip to Italy for us, it truly exceeded our expectations in every way. Working with Travel Bliss Creations was completely seamless and stress-free from start to finish. Amber was incredibly organized and provided all of our travel information and documents in a beautifully arranged folder (along with digital copies), keeping everything conveniently in one place. She was always responsive and quick to answer our questions, which gave us great peace of mind throughout the entire process. The thoughtful gift she included for our trip was such a kind and personal touch, it genuinely showed how much she cares about her clients and their experience. My daughter and I had a wonderful time, and I’m so grateful to Amber for taking care of every detail so we could simply relax and enjoy our special time together.

We were hoping to get married in Hawaii but didn't know where to start or if we could even do it in our budget. With Amber's help we quickly found out that this was possible in our budget (she is able to get better deals than if you book on your own) and then she made it so easy for us. We told her what we wanted and she made it happen! She even helped us find the wedding company we used and gave us insider tips. I definitely recommend Amber to make booking your travels a breeze.

We asked Amber to plan our family trip to Japan over spring break. Amber’s attention to detail, logistical planning, and spectacular recommendations helped make our vacation memorable. From the beginning, every detail was perfectly planned from the transportation to accommodation and activities. Amber took all of the stress out of travel and we were just able to enjoy family-time and the beauty of Japan. After meeting with us and talking about our goals for the trip, Amber suggested some activities that would be enjoyable for everyone from grandma down to grandchild. She designed the perfect itinerary to fit our short timeframe and long wish list. We were lodged in central locations in Tokyo and Kyoto that allowed for us to easily move throughout the cities and visit UNESCO World Heritage sites, prime shopping areas and amazing restaurants. She also arranged for private tours, a full-day excursion to Mt Fuji, tickets to the Sumo tournament, traditional tea ceremony and a Geiko performance. Amber planned our trip with the care and thought as if it was her own vacation. She took our pie-in-the-sky vacation and made it a reality. Amber truly enjoys travel and sharing that passion with her clients. If you’re planning a trip to Japan, I recommend her highly.

Our safari trip to Kenya was absolutely unforgettable, and we couldn’t have done it without Amber. She took the time to understand we wanted adventure with comfort, and a true taste of Africa. She delivered on every detail. Every part of the journey was seamless, from the flights and transfers to the incredible lodges/tented camps and game drives. We were able to spot the Big Five, our guides were knowledgeable and passionate, and taught us about the wildlife and local culture. If you’re planning a safari, you’ll be in excellent hands. Truly, a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Don't forget your camera!

Amber helped us plan every detail of our trip from air travel to airport limo to ferry and train trips. Our 15 day adventure was not without challenges, but Amber was always available to step in and address any issues from afar. I really liked the interactive itinerary she provided. It has all the confirmation numbers, addresses and times. She is awesome!!

Managed to get a room on the new ship in summertime! Amber is a consummate professional and attentive to deadlines and reminders.

Made trip easier with airport transfers so that was one less logistic we had to worry about. Great service from the car transfer company she scheduled for us.

This trip was planned to a tee, from our home departure to our arrival in country (Poland) and our return trip to home. Every little detail was carefully planned to meet the intent of our visit. Amber did an outstanding job coordinating with our personal travel guides to plan a trip beyond our expectations. Overall, we stayed in two wonderful hotels, one in Gdansk and the other in Krakow. Both were located in the heart of those cities which made it easy to get around after our scheduled tours were finished. We throughly enjoyed visiting Gdansk and Krakow and would recommend visiting Poland to everyone- the food was amazing, the churches were spectacular and the people friendly! Amber meticulously planned our trip, and her attention to detail is to be commended! We simply told her what we wanted to do, and she met with us via teleconference so we could discuss our vision for the trip. From the beginning to the end she reached out with updates to ensure we were ready to travel. We visited Gdansk, Tychowa, Krakow, Rzeszow and Czestochowa. Our first guide, Margo was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond to make our journey both memorable and enjoyable, and overwhelmingly proud of our dad’s service in WWII. The guide who traveled with us to our grandparents home villages, utilized her interpersonal skills to assist us with locating information about our grandmother and her family, in fact she continues to help us find relatives. ALL of our travel guides were incredible! I credit Amber with using her contacts to plan the trip of a lifetime for us. Thank You Amber for your hard work! I highly recommend reaching out to Amber for any trip YOU want to be the trip of YOUR Lifetime!

Amber’s recommendations for points of interest when in Paris France were amazing. From the visit to the Louvre and Eiffel Tower, to shopping in Paris, to the travel to the Champagne region for champagne tour and everything in between, was superb! Thank you Amber for planning a wonderful trip for me.

Amber booked a wonderful cruise to the Greek Islands for me. Overnight accommodation in Athens was “spot on” as the ancient ruins were in walking distance from the hotel. From her quick response to address my concerns to the various recommendations on planning my excursions, Amber did an awesome job. I will definitely contact her again when I’m ready for another adventure!!
