Railroad Travel: Alaska, Southwest & Canada

Summer Calloway was my trip advisor for my 1st cruise. I had no idea where to start. She put together a week long cruise with the most interesting places for my group of 4 retired ladies. The ship itself was beautiful. The stops were places we had told her that captured our interests. All we had to do was listen to her expertise. I wouldn't do it again without Summer making all the plans fro airline tickets, special assistance as I could only use one arm at the time, hotel reservations, private transportation to and from the port. My thanks to Summer Calloway for guiding us to a great cruise.

When I contacted Summer via email about my desire to visit Las Vegas during my Christmas break, I told her all the sights I wanted to see and travel experiences I wanted to enjoy during my few days out West. Summer quickly responded and contacted me through email to work out all the details. Summer worked with my vacation schedule and planned for my airline tickets, long-term airport parking, arranged for my rental car, booked all of my hotels for Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and Salt Lake CIty, and she arranged for my tickets to see the Wizard of Oz at the Sphere in Las Vegas. She also got tickets for me to see a Rock The Vault concert at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas. When my rental car had issues, I contacted Summer and she made the call to the Mastik Lodge at the Grand Canyon to tell them that I would be arriving later than planned. She made the call to get me into my hotel sooner when my rental car was delayed. She was quick to resolve a rental car issue that happened, although none of it was her fault. She was dedicated to ensure I had a wonderful trip. She even looked up the best gluten-free eating options for my traveling companion and best places to see off the beaten path. I would definitely book a trip with Summer again. She made my trip most enjoyable.

Summer took care of everything for us and was a smooth experience

Summer helped me seamlessly plan a surprise Colorado trip for my husband’s Christmas gift! She helped make it the best trip and offered great suggestions!

Cruising options can be overwhelming but Summer did a great job of matching our family with the perfect cruise line, ship, and itinerary. It was a first cruise for some of our adult children who later claimed it to be the best vacation they’ve ever had. Summer really knows the cruise options first hand which is so helpful!!

The effort put in to planing this trip brought me memories that will last a lifetime. For that I'm grateful.

We used Summer to book our Disney trip and she has such attention to detail. She booked our character dining experience, our lightning lanes for us to get on rides exceptionally fast, and helped us with every step along the way. You can't go wrong using an experienced travel agent over booking for yourself! She answered all my crazy questions with ease and gave us all the tips and tricks to make our trip most efficient. Book with her and see for yourself! Thanks Summer.

Fast and efficient… Helped me every step of the way as this was my first cruise experience

Summer is honestly the absolute best!!! She has gone above and beyond to plan my family’s FIRST trip to Disney World and ensure that it is nothing short of magical! I was very intimidated initially because of all the horror stories I have heard about planning, but choosing to book through Summer was hands down the best decision I could have made! She was able to reserve ALL our first choice restaurants, any obstacle we’ve thrown at her she has overcome with ease, and her dedication is unmatched - up at all hours of the night/morning to ensure my family has the best possible experience. I’ve never used a travel agent before but she has made a firm believer out of me and I won’t be booking without her in the future! If you are traveling and not utilizing Summer’s magic wand, you’re doing it wrong!! THANK YOU!! We are truly blessed to have you and your expertise!!

I love saying to other people "my travel agent" book this or that. Summer is the best! She can handle any trip, anywhere, any time and make sure you stay within your budget. She listens and cares about her clients.

This is the second trip that we have booked with Summer and most definitely the biggest one yet. Alaska!!! We went the end of August through the first of September 2025, to the most incredible Alaskan trip ever, and it would not have been possible without Summer Calloway, our Travelmation travel agent. From start to finish, everything was perfectly planned and completely stress-free. Our itinerary included flying to Vancouver, Canada, spending a couple of days exploring the city, then boarding a cruise that took us to several breathtaking ports throughout Alaska, and finally flying home from Anchorage. With so many moving parts, I was amazed at how seamless everything was. Every flight, hotel stay, transfer, and cruise detail was handled flawlessly. One of the most unforgettable moments was the train ride from Seward to Anchorage, which ended our fabulous trip with the most beautiful scenery—views that will truly be etched in my mind forever. It was the perfect ending to an already amazing journey. Summer was knowledgeable, organized, responsive, and clearly put a great deal of care into creating an itinerary that fit us perfectly. Because of her attention to detail, we were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment. This was hands down one of the best trips we’ve ever taken, and we will absolutely be using Summer Calloway with Travelmation again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtfully planned, unforgettable vacation!

Summer made everything so easy from start to finish! Summer quickly sent multiple quotes for different level rooms and resorts in the beginning stages, along with snagging last minute reservations towards the end. Will definitely be using Summer again for all of our vacation needs!

Having Summer plan our vacation was the best decision! She got us a great deal and made sure we knew everything we needed for a smooth sailing! She answered all of my questions in a timely manner which I'm very grateful for! We will definitely use her for our next one!

Working with Summer has been so easy and pleasurable. She is very competent, knowledgable, and worked patiently with us as we figured out the trip little by little and made multiple changes along the way without complaint. The final itinerary with the schedule, attached documents, and passes was incredibly helpful. Very professional! We also felt like we were working with a friend!

Summer was excellent! This is the second Disney trip she’s planned for us and it was amazing! She planned everything! I messaged her a week before our trip with questions and she was super prompt with responses to my questions. I can’t wait for our next Disney trip and for Summer to plan it again!

Summer was wonderful from start to finish. She is knowledgeable and resourceful.

Summer Calloway found a great condo for our family for our first trip to Hilton Head. Condo was amazing, nice walk to the beach, close to good restaurants, but at the same time felt secluded and private.

Summer has booked our cruises, our son’s honeymoon to the Dominican, and his cruise to Alaska. All of them have been amazing. We highly recommend her. She makes everything so easy, and always helps find the best rates.

She booked utopia royal Caribbean cruise for me and my family and it was hands down amazing no extra cost

Summer has booked multiple trips for us. It’s so easy to book with her. She takes all the stress away with her thorough research and knowledge!

Summer booked exactly what I needed for a fun get away with my husband.

After Summer helps you plan a trip once, you’ll never plan a trip yourself again. She makes it so easy!!! She’s planned simple trips like an overnight hotel to complex itineraries. Sometimes I give her just the start of an idea and she runs with it. Absolutely LOVE working with her for our travel.

My husband and I took our first trip to Disney with no kids. We hadn't been in several years. Summer handled everything for us, from booking our trip, to dining reservations, and even booking our first lightning lane! The process at Disney has changed so much since the last time we were there, so she even helped us set up our Magic Bands and showed us the features! Summer is extremely communicative and gives attention to every detail. You won't regret letting her plan your next vacation.

Summer helped us book our cruise and was there every step of the way!

If Chuck Norris ever needed a trip planned, I would tell him to go to Summer Calloway! She’s got more skills, connections and personal experience that gives you the best experience ever! She is completely for her customers and will do anything to make their dreams come true!

From the very beginning, Summer was always quick to respond to my many questions and made me feel at ease with the whole process which can be overwhelming. Once we nailed down our dates the booking process happened quickly and easily. We stayed at Dockside Inn and Suites for our 5 night stay and visited Universal and Island of Adventure with our 4 day park-to-park tickets. Check-in at our hotel was very easy, I loved the option of loading cash to your room key so you don't have to keep up with anything extra while at the parks or hotel resorts. Summer sent over great tips before our trip on things to bring along or know once there, which we were so thankful for. We enjoyed the short lines the first two park days and loved having our express passes for Friday as the lines were getting a little longer by that point. From the rides to the shows and food, everything was great and better than we could have asked for. Seeing the Transformers live was icing on the cake for my boys. We also e

Summer planned the best honeymoon trip for us!!! It was great!!! The motels, flights and activities were all exactly what we needed!!!! I would recommend Summer to anyone!!!

Another great ski trip planned with Summer. This time turning utter chaos into seamless organization making sure we had everything we needed upon arrival through babyquip for some much needed ditched luggage! Summer has kids and sure knows how to help a new mom travel!

Summer booked our family a trip to Pigeon Forge. She sent options for us so we could choose the perfect cabin with a basement pool! She is very detailed and helped us with dinner options and entertainment. I will use her from now on! Thanks Summer!

Summer has planned numerous trips for our family and we currently have another one in the works! I was extremely intimidated with a Disney trip for my family, which included 3 children 8 and under, as neither my husband or I had ever been. Summer was amazing! And make the planning experience so enjoyable! Even with day to day tips and tricks to maximize our experience. We have also used her for trips to Universal, cruises and more! I can’t imagine doing it without her help!

Summer had helped many a trip and each time had gone above and beyond to ensure that the trip goes smoothly. From giving options on the front end to follow up when things have gone sideways on trips. Summer is the best!

Disney is an overwhelming thing for me. Summer made the process seamless and easy. She gave awesome tips and helped me set up for things that I wasn't even aware of at the parks (like the virtual queues). She was available when I had questions and quick to respond. I haven't been to the Disney parks in over 20 years until now, and with Summer's help she made it a very enjoyable experience.

It was a pleasure to work with Summer. She sent quotes quickly and provided options based on where we wanted to stay.
She was professional and very knowledgeable.

I reached out to Summer for assistance with planning a cousins cruise & she literally took care of everything! This was mine & my sisters first cruise & our cousins 9th. We had the dates picked out & Summer did all rest. Our cabin was in the perfect location on the ship that would allow us easy access to elevators/stairs, all the fun & most importantly, a location where we would feel the least movement. Summer kept us notified of important information & responded promptly to our emails when we had questions. I/we highly recommend Summer & will definitely reach out to her for any future travel needs.

We just thought we knew how to Disney! Summer showed us how to make this our absolute best trip yet! Everything was planned out perfectly and the trip went without any issues, we were traveling with 5 children so that is a big deal! Summer was up early with us making sure we got our Genie Plus selections and lighting lanes! She even surprised us snagged an early morning lightning lane to Tron! We will continue to use Summer for our planning, I would recommend her to anyone planning any trip even if you you think you know what your doing, Summer knows more!

Summer is so pleasant to work with and very organized. She is on top of everything and has such great ideas. She makes trip planning a breeze and takes away all the worry and stress.

Super quick to respond. Very easy to work with. Provided great options. Had an amazing trip to the Philippines!

Summer is attentive, accommodating and a pleasure to work with.👍🏼

Summer was super easy to work with.

Summer is very timely and found us many options! My dates and criteria changes closer to booking and that was no problem! The condo Summer booked for us was in a great location (walking distance from the village and mountain!) Thank you Summer!

Summer is an excellent travel planner! She is professional and efficient. She will find you the best deal possible. On my recent visit to the Outerbanks, I had a wonderful hotel right on the water with beautiful ocean views for an great price. I will definitely continue to have Summer plan my trips! I spent a few days at a teacher workshop and then traveled to Raleigh to stay for a night. The hotel was spacious, clean, and it was an excellent priced stay.

Summer was very professional and genuine. Summer was very efficient and helpful with my travel plans.

I’ve known Summer for quite a few years, and if there’s one thing to highlight about her, it’s the fact that she loves a good deal. Summer will go above and beyond to not only help you with the right accommodations to fit your needs, but to also get you the best price. She’s incredibly pleasant and professional to work with and I won’t hesitate to use her again in the future!
