Mediterranean Cruise Expert

Once again, Dave has come through for us! Found us an extremely cool boutique hotel in Asheville, VA with easy access to everything for which we were looking. Great hiking, great food, neat historic areas, diverse local beer selection... My wife, daughter and I had a great time!

Dave did an excellent job as always. Great guy and attention to detail. Never had an issue. Trip was a big success. We visited Israel and Jordan and every detail was planned perfectly. Have used Dave for Europe, Africa and the Middle East and every trip has been a success

A friend recommended Dave and told me that all I had to do is tell him where I wanted to travel and what I wanted to do along with a budget. I did exactly that and so did Dave. We spent 14 days in Italy with 2 days added on each end for travelling. My only worry was making the connections from hotels to trains and other transportation. All our connections were perfect. The one time we didn't book a connection was from the Termini train station in Rome to our hotel and it was a real pain in the neck. I wish I would have made sure someone was there to pick us up! Our cab probably cost as much as a driver would have - and there was a very long line at the taxi stand at the station. So if Dave tells you to purchase a transfer - listen to him!!! I can't count how many hours I spent on the phone with him planning this trip. It was a "bucket-list" trip for me and he made sure everything was perfect. I will definitely call him the next time I'm planning a long vacation. Thanks, Dave!!!

So helpful! United Airlines canceled our flight causing them to rebook us a day later...NO!!!! We would’ve lost a day of our prepaid vacation. Dave went above and beyond to get us out a day early and a motel with shuttle to the airport, saving our vacation.

Dave was amazing with helping to plan our honeymoon! He was detailed oriented and easy to work with. Dave provided us with valuable information to make our trip a dream come true.

We've been working with Dave for several years on both domestic and international trips. As always, our latest trip, this time to Belgium, was absolutely great. He took into account our needs and special interests and booked perfect, personalized locations for us. We had a spectacular time!

Dave provides all options possible for a great trip and coordinates everything from air to shuttles to hotels for a great vacation. We had an issue with our passports and Dave was up with up until 10pm the night before our trip trying to help us resolve the problem! Once we arrived in Bermuda we were able to enjoy the great trip he booked for us!

I cannot say enough positive things about Dave and the experience we had with him while he helped plan our honeymoon trip to Italy! As soon as I first talked with Dave and heard how passionate he was about travel and helping his clients have the perfect trip, I knew we were in great hands! Dave was so good with his attention to detail and listened to everything we wanted! He also was so quick with his communication while
planning the trip AND while we were across the country! We knew we could rely on him if anything went wrong. He was knowledgeable about everything and provided such great feedback throughout the planning process. It was our first time traveling to Europe, and we were a bit nervous, so he went over every single detail with us which was helpful. He even provided an app for us to reference throughout the trip which was a life saver. I am so grateful that we had Dave to help plan this unforgettable trip for us. We cannot thank him enough!

From start to finish Dave was amazing! Hotel suggestions, travel routes, daytime excursions, restaurants - you name it, he can do it. We had a couple of unfortunate "hiccups" along the way and Dave was available 24/7 to help us out, and has even made himself available afterwards to help us file claims against an airline that destroyed my luggage! He is extremely personable, so communications with him are always a pleasure. I won't work with anyone else in the future.

Working with Dave in planning our celebratory trip to Italy was simple as pie! He handled all the major details and research based on our input which made planning this trip such a pleasure. His customer service is beyond excellent, always quick to reply (especially to all my continuous emails every time I thought of something else to ask him), and his true concern to satisfy our every request is really appreciated! We worked together as a team, since I am a very "hands-on" type of person and need to be involved with everything. Throughout the trip, my husband kept complimenting me and the great job I did planning this and I kept reminding him - it was mostly all Dave's hard work! I highly recommend using Dave's services to plan your next special trip.

Dave never lets us down - we just tell him what we want, he researches, does the assignments, the math, and the add ons which includes insurance. I have been using him for many years and will continue to - there is no other travel agent to me - ever !! DISNEY CRUISE AND LAND = A BLAST ! 5 STARS FOR DAVE AND DAYDREAM EXCURSIONS !!

Dave has always been very responsive at getting back to us as we initiate another trip. He is detailed oriented and has made good recommendations for experiences.

Dave is a miracle worker. He took a bucket list dream for my husband to return to Oahu where he had done his military service decades ago and combined this goal with a reunion with longtime neighbors and turned it into a most memorable vacation. From sorting out which islands to visit, comparing cruise versus island-hopping by plane, hotels versus condominiums, and which of the possible tours to do, Dave was doggedly driven to put together an itinerary that worked for us. He even managed to have a rainbow to greet us as we arrived in Honolulu!

All four members of our party appreciated the quality of the accommodations and tours that Dave arranged for us. We also appreciated the downtime he built into the itinerary so we came back feeling as though we had been on vacation and not frenetic.

Mahalo!!

Dave was just great. Everything was seamless and we had no issues with our flight, hotel & ticket packages. He was always responsive in answering any questions we had about our trip and would follow up in a timely manner with Disney or United Vacations to confirm questions. We made a change to our itinerary 2 weeks before the trip and we Dave expertly handled everything with no issues.

Dave was extremely helpful planning our two week trip to Italy. He was eager and interested in what we wanted to see and experience while in three different regions of Italy. We started planning our trip in July for our early October 2018 trip. Dave kept in frequent contact with us. He arranged our airline, private car , train tickets within Italy, semi-private tours of major sights, wine and oil olive tour in Tuscany and fantastic hotels. Dave did a thorough and exceptional planning job for us.

This was my first time working with Dave and I can't say enough about how well organized he is and how he made this planning experience very stress free. Can't wait to book my next one with him.

Dave is an awesome trip planner. I've used him many times and I will never use anyone again. Vacations and Daydream go hand in hand. I can't thank him enough for all the money and time he saved us. He prepares soup to nuts. You just tell him what you want and he runs estimates right away and figures out ways to accommodate further with pricing and venues. Thanks, use Dave as you will never be sorry. RICH

In an age where the internet and traveling are only a few clicks away, as a millennial, I still always use Dave Rosenthal to book all of my getaways and recommend to others to use Dave as well for a stress free experience. Dave truly cares about his clients and carefully books his trips, as if he was booking for his own family. Furthermore, Dave is makes himself available while you’re on your trip if you have any questions or a problem should arise. This was my third (and a half) trip with Dave. (I say half since he had to rebook our trip due to COVID travel restrictions). On this trip I had an accident (nothing to do with Dave) and he took it upon himself to help me navigate the “lovely” world of insurance claims and continued to check in on me and my health. Dave spends time with you to learn your interests, and what who your are, in order to book a vacation/excursions that will be right for you and your family. I would 100 percent recommend Dave to anyone trying to plan!

Dave was helpful with my questions?

Dave took care of all the details so all we had to do was enjoy ourselves! He worked to ensure everything was taken care of and always followed up. We had a great trip and I'm looking forward to planning our next vacation with him.

I can't say enough about Dave Rosenthal from Daydream Excursions, he was amazing to work with. I had been struggling while planning and researching a dream trip to Italy. Dave was referred to me by a friend and in a spur of the moment couple of weeks we were on our way to Italy. Dave listened, gave tons of suggestions and planned every detail perfectly. From our flights, train transportations, to beautiful hotels in perfect locations. He also booked all of our tours that were exactly everything we wanted. His attention to detail and travel experience allowed us enjoy our vacation with absolute ease.
I highly recommend Dave for your next trip, you wont regret it.

Working with Dave has been a great experience. From beginning to end Dave has kept us updated with all aspects of planning our vacation. We would definitely use Dave again.

Dave created the most amazing itinerary for our 12-day vacation to Croatia! He even included two full-day tours to Bosnia-Herzegovina and Montenegro! We arrived in Split, and he set us up in an awesome hotel (Hotel Jupiter, centrally located yet super quiet). We did a 5-Island Boat tour, a Game of Thrones tour (a must do for you fans out there), a tour to Krka Waterfalls, and SO much more. Dubrovnik was equally breathtaking - see all the pictures below. If you are travelling and want the best vacation of your life, book it with Dave!!

As always, Dave was efficient and responsive to our travel needs and desires. The hotel he selected was in the perfect location for us and close to all of the locations we were looking to visit. Kudos!!

Dave arranged a trip to Bruges and Brussels for 2 families (6 people, including 2 teens, 14 and 16). He took care of everything and made our vacation hassle-free. The hotels he found were both in perfect locations, and the one in Bruges was particularly stunning. Dave is enthusiastic and always ready to answer questions and help however he can. We have worked with him before and definitely will again!

Dave was extremely helpful and enthusiastic in planning our trip. With four stops, logistics were tricky, but Dave was always there to make any adjustments needed even with the 6 hour time difference. Thanks Dave for a trip we will always remember.

We wouldn't take a cruise without Dave handling the details. He is the consummate professional with an eye for detail. He has handled more than a dozen cruises for us and will continue to do so until we can't cruise any more. Kudos to Dave and his expertise

Dave was very helpful in planning our vacation. We travelled with 9 people for 17 days through 2 countries and the amount of decisions that need to be made can be overwhelming for one person. Dave was quick with responses and overall did a great job. I would recommend his services to my friends.

When I want to travel, I want everything handled for me. Sure, I can review websites and look at pretty pictures of different cruises, tours or destinations, but ultimately, I will rely more on a good travel agent's opinions and advice than anything else. Dave Rosenthal has book a half dozen cruises for me in the past and the best trip I ever took, an 8 day trip of Italy to celebrate my 50th birthday last year. He booked our travel, transportation, tour group and hotels and allowed me to enjoy the trip without investing a ton of time planning every detail. I've recommended Dave to my in-laws and two or three other friends, and have no qualms about talking up his services. He's become more than my go-to-guy for travel. Dave is a genuine friend. (And Dave, if you ever need a referral, please feel free to give out my phone number.) Looking forward to cruising on the Oasis...16 days and counting.

This vacation was a “sisters” celebration; one sister retired after working 51 years and the other celebrates a milestone birthday. The “birthday” sister was in Budapest in the Fall of 2023 and thought a river cruise (our first) on the Danube would be a wonderful trip to plan ahead for. The planning began in June of 2024 for a trip that took place in early October 2025. Dave Rosenthal of Daydream Excursions (a long time family friend and travel concierge for our parents) was instrumental in every aspect of the planning, even suggesting the not well known Riviera Travel in the U.S. The planning was done ahead of time and was organized for us with incremental payments for airfare, hotel, insurance, and the cruise. Dave met with us personally the week before our departure to review our itinerary. We were most thankful for all the time he put into making this vacation a memorable one for us. We had an amazing “classical music” voyage on the MS Emily Brontë for 7 nights. The excursions, historical and breathtaking, were so interesting with knowledgeable tour guides that spoke in English. Our two Riviera cruise directors were personal and attended to the entertainment details at every port and on the boat. We also enjoyed and were appreciative of the wonderful crew that took care of us for the week. The food every day was something to look forward to; delicious at every meal! We did not have any travel issues during our 10 day trip! Dave is smart and knowledgeable; he is the person to contact to plan your vacation. Dave, we appreciative you and thank you!

Dave Rosenthal at Daydream Excursions is quite simply the BEST! We've used Dave many times for our European travel and he's always come through with the best accommodations (tailored to our needs and budget), transportation arrangements we can rely on ,and fabulous suggestions for tours and sightseeing. Most recently, he helped us plan a FABULOUS trip to Paris to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. He found a wonderful boutique hotel with a view of an opera house that was simply dreamy. I love working with Dave. He's attentive, thorough and excellent at listening to what we want and curating an experience that suits us, our desires and our budget! What more can you ask for? I have recommended Dave to family, friends because I'm confident he'll do an amazing job for them too. Can't wait to start planning our next adventure with Dave!

Dave's experience comes thru with great recommendations on where to stay and how to best experience the places you see. He had personal insights to the cities we visited so many "uncertainties" were eliminated. The app which details your trip was a great help. Well worth the time working with him, will do so again.

Dave arranged a spectacular river cruise for us. We met before the trip and he took us through the process from airport to check in on the boat so we were prepared for the how it would work. It was the trip of a lifetime! Avalon was magnificent! Fantastic customer service all around!

Dave always makes sure our trips are perfectly planned from start to finish. With two kids and car seats, having someone handle the details and transportation, makes my life so much easier. Every trip feels seamless. He’s quick to respond whenever I have a question, and if any issues come up, he’s on it right away. Truly a lifesaver!

For several years, we have traveled extensively throughout Europe, Africa, Central and South America. Before connecting with The Fabulous Dave at Daydreams, we made our own unique itinerary. It’s a lot of work, not to mention the worry about getting stuck or lost somewhere. For the last 10-ish years, we’ve been working with Dave. No more worrying! He helps us plan and carry out our adventures…if a hitch arises, he’s got our backs. Planes, shuttles, accommodations, insurance, he’s got it. I highly recommend this Super Hero

Dave created the most amazing itinerary for our 5-day vacation to Aruba! He also constantly updated us with any notifications (for example there was a slight delay in our flight back and he texted me personally, and he also reminded me of various other items I had to consider to prepare for the trip). The hotel he recommended was perfect, beautifully renovated, great location, and at a great price. He even recommended two tours (a bus ride around the island and a catamaran ride) which were fantastic! If you are travelling and want the best vacation of your life, book it with Dave!!

Dave was knowledgeable and easy to work with. He was very responsive and patient as my husband and I were planning out trip to Italy. Dave helped us plan a fantastic trip!

David helped my grandmother and I book a River Cruise. He was very helpful and did everything! It was wonderful! Would recommend David 110%!

Dave was very informative and attentive to all of our questions pre-trip and during! The tours he booked were tours we will remember for a lifetime. We also really appreciated his communication for when information changed during our trip - Dave was fantastic to work with!

Dave Rosenthal at Daydream Excursions is quite simply the BEST! We've used Dave many times for our European travel and he's always come through with the best accommodations (tailored to our needs and budget), transportation arrangements we can rely on ,and fabulous suggestions for tours and sightseeing. Most recently, we needed accommodations in London for my husband and I along with our 2 adult children. When hotels weren't meeting our needs, he found us a wonderful apartment in the Bloomsbury area that not only had the space we wanted and was close to the tube -- but was located in a charming area that had us feeling like locals. Loved it! I recommend Dave to all my friends since I know he'll go above and beyond for all his clients.

Dave was awesome! He helped me plan our wonderful family vacation.

Dave provided excellent recommendations and booking for accommodations to meet all of our families needs and requirements. We had some specific requests related to exercise facilities and he ensured we would have what we needed.

Dave provides the highest quality of personal service, both before and during our travels.

Dave did a phenomenal job arranging our trip to St Lucia and Barbados for our honeymoon. He listened to exactly what we wanted and made our dream honeymoon a reality. He was instrumental in helping us when I got sick (He was able to walk me through getting a refund on an excursion we could not take) and also when our flight was cancelled day of (not anyone's fault but mother nature. It was a inter-Caribbean flight that was tiny and the weather was bad!) He is so easy to work with, cares about his clients, and goes above and beyond what is asked. We will 100% be using him in the future for our next trip!!!

Dave did a great job planning our trip. He took care of all the flights on Emirate Airlines to and from Milan, as well a separate flight for one of our party who met us in Venice. The hotels were all really fantastic, both for their locations and the quality of the facilies. We were crisscrossing Italy and would have loved to have stayed in some of them longer. but we had to be in Ferrara to see Bruce. Dave was in touch with me daily in planning the trip, and it went really well. We visited Milan, Lake Garda, Venice, Ferrara, and Brescia. Best food of our lives, too!

This is the second time using Daydream to connect the dots on a great trip abroad. Dave and his team are beyond knowledgeable and know who to put you in touch with to ensure you have a great trip.

On this trip we went to Ireland and the guide we were had the entire time we were there became one with the family. He made amazing restaurant suggestions and showed us some “local” spots that tourists wouldn’t normally see.

Our family had the absolute best time and it was all thanks to Daydream Excursions and their knowledge of the tourism industry. I can’t wait to plan our next trip together!

Always a call back, trip I asked for at a good price, easy to speak too and very personable.

I can honestly say my experience with Dave Rosenthal was Amazing. We didnt have to worry about a single thing. He took care of everything.

I have recommended "Diamond Dave" as I call him to many friends and relatives. Along with family, he was one of the first people I was anxious to share the events and photos of this family vacation, celebrating my twin girls turning 21 and my wife and my 25th anniversary all rolled into one.

Dave is so nice to work with. He responds very quickly, does all that he can to get as many good deals and perks for you, is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of traveling, and helped make our trip as stress-free as possible.
Before our Caribbean cruise was over, we had already booked a European cruise with Dave for the following year with another family. We are really looking forward to working with Dave on the pre/post and cruise planning!

Dave,

What can I say, you are amazing at what you do. Ways reassuring me at any time of day when we spoke on the phone. God Bless You for what you do.

When my daughter and son-in-law referred me to you, it was the best as I don't have understanding of on line booking.

Thank you for terrific extra leg room on the plane and a wonderful cruise.

Rosalie L. Ursillo

Dave did an excellent job in planning our trip. He was available at all times to assist in ANY way!

Dave planned a great trip for me and my Mom to go to New Orleans and then onto a cruise to Central America. I wanted to keep our vacation within a tight budget. Dave was able to keep our total vacation cost below our budget limit. This included airfare, hotel, 7 day cruise with a mini suite, unlimited beverage package, upgrade on specialty restaurants, excursions, car service and insurance! He even checked in with me a day before we left to make sure I had all of my confirmations. Dave has planned a few complicated trips for me in the past to Europe. One time I left all of my tickets at home and didn't realize it until I was already in Germany. I called Dave in a panic and he was able to work with my husband at home to get the tickets overnighted to me. I know that Dave is always there for his customers and he will go the extra mile for them. I would recommend Dave to anyone who is planning a trip.

Dave was incredible. The desire to make sure our trip was perfect was amazing

Always checked in and always updated us on any changes. Followed up with anything we needed either on his own or if we asked - no questions asked. Highly recommend.

Dave is ALWAYS very thorough in planning our vacations. After understanding what is important to us, he will find exactly what works for us. Thank you Dave for setting up an awesome and relaxing vacation!

Dave was very attentive to my concerns and wants. Top notch trip for my family. Thank you for steering us in the right direction for my daughters 16th birthday. Thank you Dave and looking forward to booking in the very near future!

Dave was very helpful in planning our trip to Asia. When I emailed him our desire to go on a cruise to South East Asia for New Years; he sent me various cruise lines to compare prices and destinations. Once we booked our cruise on the Holland America Westerdam ship, Dave sent us valuable information regarding obtaining Visas and possible excursions. Before we were ready to travel, Dave sent us an Essential Checklist. I would definitely use Dave for my future travel needs.

We planned a trip/cruise to Southeast Asia and Dave was so great to work with. I told him where and what we wanted and he handled everything. It was so easy to work with him and he answered every question promptly. If he didn't know the answer he said he would get back to me with the answer and he did. We will definitely be using him again for our future travels.

Dave is a competent and diligent travel agent. He works around the clock for your trip and any question you have, at any time of the day, Dave will do everything in his power to find you the answer. He aims to please and anything wrong or doesn’t seem right, he rectifies the problem immediately or works non-stop to fix it. He is so caring and passionate towards every part of your trip from the beginning to the end.. Your trip is even more enjoyable knowing that your travel agent is available at any time . He is so committed to his clients and the personal service that you receive is a quality that other travel agents don’t provide. That personal quality is very important to me as a client and very rare in this day of age of businesses dealing with the public. He treats you like family and I’m very lucky to have found a travel agent that goes beyond the business aspect. He is truly a professional and humanitarian all rolled into one. Book with Dave and experience it yourself !

Dave is extremely thorough with the details of putting together a trip for you

Always fun working with Dave, getting a travel plan figured out. He did a good job with our adventure to Iceland. On day three we got our rental car and had huge smiles on our faces the next four days touring the southern part of Iceland. Highly recommend a car and doing your own tour. The car had a tablet in which all sites were marked on a map and had pop ups. Easy to use...and helpful. Easy to drive in Iceland.

Dave Rosenthal is a very professional yet personable agent. He continually tended to ALL of our needs promptly & courteously.

David was extremely thorough in his research and planning of my recent trip to South Africa, which included time spent in Capetown and a Safari. There were many logistics in making this trip happen and David made it all happen!
David made sure that every detail was covered and all our needs were met!!
I must say this was one of the most memorable trips I have experienced and I believe David made it happen because of his kindness and professional!
David, you are the best in your profession!
The Kuhn family thanks you
Sandra Kuhn

This is our 2nd international trip that we booked through Dave. Both times, our expectations have been exceeded. Dave is exceptional at getting the details right, offering proactive insights, making sure things go right and keeping in touch. Dave has now become our "trip advisor for life"! Thanks Dave for all your professionalism, thoughtfulness and friendship.

Dave is awesome, he listens to what you are looking for and really does his research.

Dave is very attentive to our needs and he makes sure we have all ends covered.
I always know our trip will be created at the lowest cost possible when working with Dave.

It was great working with Dave. He answered all my questions promptly and made sure we had all the extras. Will definitely work with him in the future.

I cannot recommend Dave Rosenthal more highly. Our trip to South Africa was flawlessly planned and executed, from start to finish. We spent time in the Cape Town area and in Kruger National Park on safari and could not have dreamed up a better experience. Each and everyday exceeded our expectations. We were able to fully relax on our trip and engage in our surroundings knowing that Dave had taken care of everything. Dave is extremely knowledgeable, detail oriented, and meticulous; he works tirelessly to customize the trip that is desired by and appropriate for your group. Dave is also extremely honest, approachable, and easy to work with. We cannot wait to work with Dave again for our next “trip of a lifetime.”

With work and several family matters underway, we had no time for planning our vacation. With only a month to go, I contacted Dave Rosenthal to help organize our trip to Norway. What a lifesaver he was!

We were traveling in peak season, and were late to start planning. Dave investigated availability, and took care of our airfare (four flights), hotels, and excursions. He researched and booked, so all I needed to do was review the opportunities.

The family had a wonderful time. We will be using Dave again.

Dave is amazing. No request is too much and he is attentive to every detail. He is the epitome of professionalism, expertise and patience! Thanks Dave, for an amazing trip and outstanding customer service!

This was the third trip I have taken under Dave's guidance and they have all been Winners!!! He made the distance between us disappear and I so appreciate his helpfulness, his responsiveness and knowledge. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a smooth and memorable experience.

Dave was an excellent travel agent who found us a great deal and helped us with all the questions we had leading up to the trip. He also went above and beyond when we had a minor accident during our trip and was in constant communication with us to put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. I recommend Dave to all my family and friends.

Dave is great, this was my second trip he helped plan. He saved us from an airline strike, planned alternate travel and submitted our insurance claim.

Expert planning and tracking of our trip. His direct oversight monitoring of events on our trip saved our vacation and was well above our expectations. He saved us time, money and preserved the quality of our vacation.

We wanted to go to Hawaii, but as first-timers, were daunted by the amount of research we'd need to do about hotels, flights, tours. Dave was amazing! He offered suggestions and worked with us to figure out what would suit us best. Our hotels were just right, he took care of the challenge of finding flights, and he found excellent tours for us. Even when we had a slight blip in our plans while we were there, he was easy to reach and took care of it immediately. Our trip was wonderful and I can't believe how smoothly it all went. Looking forward to planning our next adventure!

Dave did a great job making my travel arrangements. I was in good hands. He also tracked my flights and maintained contact with me during an ordeal when the flight I was scheduled to take was delayed more than 4 times due to inclement weather.

No matter what type of vacation our family plans we always speak to Dave first. Whether it is driving up US1, going to Hawaii, Alaska, visiting all the surf spots in CA, skiing in Colorado or just relaxing in Mexico - Dave always takes the burden of planning everything off of our shoulders. His attention to detail is phenomenal. Whenever we go away - I always know that Dave is on the ground making sure everything goes off without a hitch. He is the best travel concierge you could ask for.

Always does a great job for us.

Everything went so smoothly on our Carnival cruise to Mexican Riviera. Dave
always makes sure we have all aspects in place and sends reminders when we reach important deadlines

His help and insight of the cruise industry was instrumental in the planning of our cruise.

It was a pleasure working with Dave. He is very knowledgeable about the travel industry and the most cost effective ways of doing things. He spends a good amount of time making sure that he understands what you want out of your travel experience and makes great recommendations on how best to accomplish that. Our trip was fantastic and I highly recommend using Dave's services.

Dave is very conscientious and dedicated to his clients. He is a pleasure to work with!

Dave helped us with booking a Danube river cruise with Viking and identifying alternative flight possibilities for our trip. He also enthusiastically helped us with hotel and rail bookings for travel in Germany in the week prior.

Dave covered everything we asked regarding our 1st trip to Greece. All hotels he picked where great except the last night. Dave always tries to give you what you want and make sure your trip goes off without a problem.

Dave was great and I have already given his contact info to many people. The trip went smooth with no problems and Dave made great recommendations for our Italy trip!! We are beginning our next trip with Dave.

Awesome amazing!! Dave Rosenthal was so willing to work with us. As many questions as I had he was always willing to answer me. I highly recommend using Dave again.

Dave was great from the beginning. He asked us what we were looking to do and he got an idea of what we would like to see. He worked around our rewards points too, which was a nice savings for us. He allowed us to keep a focus in London and then he planned a 3 day excusrion for us to the country side, with great highlights. Our trip to the countryside was great and went so smooth. We returned to London at the end of our trip. He planned it so we got to see a lot of sights, some days fast paced and some days at a lazier pace. We had great tours and guides thanks to his planning. Our whole family felt like we learned a lot as well as having a wonderful time. I would recommend Dave to our friends.

Dave did an awesome job helping us plan our trip to Alaska. He provided
a variety of choices for excursions. He booked our airfare and all of our shore
excursions. He offered valuable information regarding ship room placement,
flight times and more intimate excursions. Dave reviewed our entire 12 day
trip in person to be sure we were well prepared. We would highly recommend
him and we plan to utilized his services in the future.

At every step someone had a sign with my name and guided me to my next stop. Wether a cab a hotel at even airport checking and security. A no brainier l

Dave did an outstanding job for us.

Dave has arranged several trips to Mexico for my wife and I. All the trips were excellently arranged for us by Dave.

We have been using Dave / Daydream Excursions for many years - and each time he never fails !! He surprised us with his new excursions and trips. He goes ABOVE AND BEYOND what he needs to do.

He plans the air, airline seats, last minute changes, cruise arrangements around Norway and Amsterdam. He then arranged for us to take a transfer to the Thalys (train) to Paris.

We did the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre tours as well as sight seeing.
On top of that he arranged the transportation to Disney Euro in Paris where we stayed another 4 days and obtained park passes which he managed as well.

I can't say enough on how personal and professional Dave is - please use him as you wont have to research anything or arrange as he is a one-stop shopping.

We will use again and again and again.

Thanks again, Dave.

Dave has helped us plan many wonderful and memorable vacations. He does a lot of legwork so that we don't need to worry about it. He always has his eye out for a better deal or an upgrade. He is very personable and extremely reliable. It is always a pleasure working with him!

I have worked with Dave Rosenthal for almost 10 years. He has always given me totally comprehensive service, and makes it a point to remember all details that matter to me in planning travel. It is very important to Dave that we are completely satisfied, comfortable and happy. He always goes the extra yard in his vacation planning and arrangements. I would never want any one else as my travel expert.

We decided in September that we wanted to take a vacation during NJ Teacher Convention week in early November. Despite the tight time frame, Dave found us several options. We opted for a week in London, then Dave took care of the rest. Great centrally-located hotel, flights and transfers, tour passes and the hard-to-get Harry Potter Studio Tour - all we had to do was say yes! Dave is so helpful, and he does his best to take care of the details so you don't have to worry about anything except enjoying yourself. This was not our first time working with Dave, and it surely won't be the last!

Working with Dave on my trip to Italy was a pleasure from start to finish. He is very knowledgeable, easy to work with, and extremely accommodating. He definitely removed all the stress and hassle associated with planning an international trip. I am most impressed with Dave's ability to formulate a detailed itinerary when I admittedly gave him little initial information on what I was looking for in the trip. I will definitely be recommending Dave to my friends and family!

Excellent travel agent. I was traveling with a group of people that were able to use his experience and knowledge of the travel industry and even though I had already planned to only do half of the entire trip he was extremely accommodating in including me with the rest of the group with out requiring an additional fee. I would highly recommend him, especially when travelling in a group.

Dave was referred to me by a coworker who promised me that Dave would make sure we had an amazing honeymoon and that he would be on call through our entire trip. Dave over delivered! We were so thrilled with our trip. We wanted an all inclusive adults only resort. We had a budget and we are also vegetarians. Dave listened to all our concernes (numerous times) and sent us MANY MANY comparisons. He really went above and beyond and this was the least stressful and most enjoyable trip I have ever taken!

The trip was planned down to to finest detail and went off as planned without a hitch!! There was always back- up contingency plans ( which were not necessary) too!

Dave did an amazing job in planning our trip. His attention to every detail helped make our trip that much easier and more importantly, allowed us to maximize the whole experience. He is very knowledgable about how to get the most out of every city, where to stay and what to do while at the same time gives you the flexibility to build the trip based on your own preferences/interests. Dave was great about helping sort out last minute confirmations/changes and very responsive when we needed something during our trip. Highly recommended!

Dave did an amazing job for making this trip exceptional. We had 21 people going on this trip and Dave made everything wonderful. There were a few snags of course and Dave basically didn't sleep until everything was resolved. He also made it very easy for my husband and I stay a couple of days longer. We never had to switch rooms. Whenever my next trip is Dave is definitely arranging it.

Best service I have ever experienced.

Dave was very helpful in accommodating us for our cruise especially when we added an additional room. He offered assistance with excursions and dining options. We appreciated the discounts, hosted cocktail party, wine tasting and complimentary specialty dining.

I gave Dave all my 'wants' for our trip to Aruba.....Nailed it! Best travel agent EVER.

We have used Dave several times for booking travel. He does a GREAT job for us!

What a fantastic job Dave Rosenthal did in organizing ALL DETAILS needed for a 15 day adventure of a lifetime! Any and ALL questions were promptly answered with professionalism and promptness. I am very happy to have Dave as my Travel agent for at least 13 years now traveling through 5 continents. His abilities on paying special attention to the most minuscule details are a trait that one should seek out when looking for a devoted Travel Agent. Dave Rosenthal fits that to a " T", and i again want to THANK HIM for all that he does for his travelers. I have recommended him to both, my parents (in their 70-80's), my family and friends with great results each and every time.

Dave did an amazing job planning my trip and securing all modes of transportation! He ensured my flights were in order and kept me abreast of all flight changes and cancellations. I never had to worry or feel anxious about anything, which left me free to enjoy my trip and conference!

We have used Dave a few times to help us with our travel plans. Dave makes the planning go smoothly and takes care of everything! He is very knowledgeable and thoughtful. He is always available to answer my questions and concerns. He is one of the most thoughtful and caring people I know and takes his job very seriously.

This is the second time I have used Dave to plan a trip for me. Dave is, as always, a pleasure to work with. He listens to your needs and wants and provides you with many options! (And all of them will always be top notch!) He makes himself available all the time and is quick and efficient when you have a question or concern. I know when we travel with Dave, my trip will be stress free! We are planning to take another trip this year and will absolutely be using Dave again to plan it.

Neither my wife nor I had been to London in many years so we relied upon Dave to help us plan this trip with our 13-year-old daughter. Dave suggested a lovely apartment-style hotel very close to many of the places we wanted to see. We ended up just walking to most of the places with a few trips on the Underground to supplement. Dave booked us to fly on Virgin Atlantic which was a cut above many domestic carriers I've used in the past for business. We wanted to get tickets to see In the Heights while we were there and, once again, Dave came through, this time with 5th row center seats! Knowing that my wife, my daughter and I are Harry Potter fans, Dave arranged for us to go to the Harry Potter Studio Tour which was, in a word, magical! It was a truly lovely trip and Dave was essential to helping us plan and working with us. Thanks again!

My family has been using Dave as our cruise consultant for almost 8 years! We have been extremely satisfied with his service and have referred him to many of our cruise-loving family and friends. Dave is quick to respond to our emails and is lots of fun to talk to.

Dave has planned many trips for us but he really made our 34-person New Year’s Eve cruise special. Dave expertly coordinated all arrangements for our group and ensured that all activities went perfectly, including a large New Year’s Eve dinner, wine social, and cocktail party. When the cruise line unexpectedly canceled a shore excursion we had booked, Dave immediately booked us on a comparable excursion. The true benefit of a travel agent is the ongoing service you get throughout the trip, not just the advance booking. Dave is always incredibly responsive and is your advocate whenever the need arises. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Dave made it so easy on us while planning our family trip to New York City. We had no idea where to stay or how to navigate our vacation. Dave stepped in and gave us some great insight and set up all travel plans. So thankful to have him help plan our trip and we will for sure be talking to him on the next family excursion.

The trip has been spectacular! Norway is an incredible country, and I'm so glad that we had the opportunity to vacation here ! You did a truly tremendous job! I know I told you that in the preparation stages, but everything was spot on! The hotels were exactly what we wanted as far as all the qualities we wanted in a hotel. The vouchers were great and made everything operate smoothly. The excursions were just as we hoped and more. I love the travel app and think it is a great tool! Can't wait to start thinking of the next trip! Will definitely be in touch - I am sold on using your expertise for good!

This was the best experience ever! Dave is so conscience about all of your desires .. everything was perfect! He went out of his way to be sure we had a great vacation. He gave us such great tips that I was so happy to receive .. especially that of getting money at your own back for the trip instead of exchanging anywhere else!! He was watching my flight up until the point that we boarded ! The best vacation ever especially in a foreign country !

We had a great cruise and Dave was very helpful with all the arrangement. It was a wonderful way to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with our family. Many wonderful memories thanks to Dave'ss planning for us.

Dave is great to work with, have never had an issue

Dave did an outstanding job even when there was a major problem with United during our travel, Dave made sure that all went well. For this I will be forever grateful!!

This is the second time we've worked with Dave, and he's done an excellent job both times. We told him where we wanted to go (we had already picked out the cruise), and he built the rest of the trip, especially the eight days in South America after the cruise which started in Buenos Aires and ended in Valparaiso. Everything went like clockwork, and we didn't have to worry about a thing. I can't imagine arranging the trip without his help.

Dave has always been most accommodating when we plan our trips. We never have any questions unanswered. He has always given us good advice and very helpful when we are questioning what type of room we want for our needs. We have never been disappointed when we work with Dave.

Dave has been extremely helpful in guiding myself, my parents, and my family on many individual traveling events over the past 8-10 years.. I have referred him to a few other friends who also are extremely happy with the service and honest Caring you get form working with Dave

Dave went above and beyond for us! He was very knowledgeable about the Hawaiian islands (we settled on Oahu and Maui). The trip was me, my mother (in her 70's) and my daughter (6) so planning things that interested everyone was quite the coup and he pulled it off brilliantly! I'm usually the trip planner so I am particular and Dave did not disappoint. He patiently listened to my endless questions and was able to take the stress off me even when I'd let time get nearer before I'd make my final decision. He had a way of keeping us on track that was not pushy or intrusive and much more keeping the
excitement and build up
going! From flights, to hotels, to excursions - he took into account our needs and what we were looking for and would inquire to be sure he was on the right track to what I envisioned -- and he was! I'd definitely recommend him highly (I found him through a friend's recommendation). I am
looking forward to his
expertise in planning many adventures on my Bucket Lis
