He's my one and only travel agent
Reviewed By Cheri - Portland, OR | Traveled to France | Europe
I found Philip online when I was planning my first trip to France. I'm so glad I did! He was so patient learning my interests and expectations. The vacation truly exceeded my expectations. He took great care picking locations, selecting the hotels and excursions. We had the most charming upscale inn in Paris, a fabulous view in Nice and pampering spa in Aix. Next, he made my solo trip to Ireland and Amsterdam easy and memorable. Everything spot on!

Terrific agent!
Reviewed By Sue and Dave - Portland, OR | Traveled to Greece | Europe
Thanks for planning our fantastic trip to Greece. We were overwhelmed with our choices after reading a mountain of travel books and online reviews. You were so patient helping us sort through all of our ideas. Your itinerary was perfect the way you combined the Greek Islands with the mainland. Your suggestions to include Meteora Delphi and Napllion were brilliant. Sue and Dave W, Portland, OR

The honeymoon we never had came true
Reviewed By Lisa Owens - New York | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Philip put together our long postponed honeymoon to Italy. Everything was flawless. He was easily accessible when we had one problem finding our airport transfer in Naples. The selection of upscale hotels and itinerary were unique and memorable. We love food and drink and he set us up with some great cooking classes. He'll be our agent for our anniversary travel.
