U.S. Road Trips: Scenic Routes & Real-Life Escapes

Jim and I have shared many vacations within the US and with family. This was our very first cruise, and Jim has always expressed how uncomfortable he feels being on a boat. His feeling of having no control over leaving is part of what makes him uneasy—that’s just his way of feeling unsecure. You decided to arrive at the boat a day early, which turned out to be a great idea. Although the flights went smoothly, we know that sometimes things can go wrong, like mechanical issues that delay planes, and we experienced that on our journey. We spent 12 hours in Miami, and while we couldn’t control those delays, we appreciated the efforts of the airlines. Exit seats, which we paid extra for, made a big difference—though the seats from OKC to Miami and back to OKC weren’t extra leg room they were regular cabin seats. The cruise itself was incredibly smooth, well-organized, and we loved everything about the boat. We don’t usually stay out late or participate in games, but we truly enjoyed our beautiful cabin and spending most of our time relaxing on the balcony. The dining experience was excellent—every meal from breakfast to dinner exceeded our expectations, especially the remarkable food. We took a few excursions off the boat; Puerto Rico, especially San Juan, was our favorite. St. Lucia was lovely too, though the Virgin Islands was breathtaking. Overall, the cruise was a truly beautiful experience, and I can honestly say it was one of the cleanest ships I’ve ever been on. I would recommend this cruise to other adults, though seven days felt a bit long for us. Jim, who is quite tall at 6 foot 8 with broad shoulders, found the bed a little small, but Despite that, our experience was very well organized, and everything was handled smoothly at the right time. We sincerely appreciate your help as our travel agent—you did a wonderful job making everything seamless. I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a caring, reliable travel professional.

Madison has been so helpful and just overall amazing helping us plan a celebration vacation for our office. It is a group of 8 of us going, and she has been so patient and kind.

Madison was great to work with from the get-go. Efficient and communicative. She answered all of our questions and helped navigate us through any bumps in planning. Even when our family member decided to join us a few months before the trip, Madison was able to add them in seamlessly so we could surprise our kids! We’ll definitely use Madison again and highly recommend her to anyone!

Madison went above and beyond to make this trip as easy as possible! She was kind enough to answer questions during her off hours; questions I never considered before we left home. I was at ease the entire time because I felt she cared about us. On our final day, we decided we were ready to come home a day early. Madison made that happen in a matter of minutes! What a rockstar!

Madison was very knowledgeable about our trip. She gave personal tips and was always so nice
