Group Cruise
Reviewed By Transitom - Brooklyn | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
Eileen did an amazing job with many points of view and accommodating each of us in their preferred cabins. Some windows or balcony cabins explained the choices. Right cruise, right cabin and right price. Thanks E

Our first trip to Barcelona
Reviewed By Meimei - New Jersey | Traveled to Barcelona | Spain | Europe
We had a trip to Barcelona and Madrid this September. Eileen Maldonado from Claddagh Travel arranged the whole trip for us, including the taxi from airport, the hotel, the daily trips, all the tickets for the site visit, dinning places, etc. This is our first time to have a trip to Barcelona. Both my husband and I agreed that it was the best decision we had Eileen tailored the trip for us. Eileen is fantastic! Besides some popular places, she added a couple of day trips that is not as popular but very interesting. We really had great time. She is so helpful all the time. I reached out to her for a taxi arrangement in the middle of the trip in Madrid. She made the change and got back to me in 5 minutes! Our first trip to Europe would not be so smooth and fun without Eileen! We highly recommend her!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

70th birthday family cruise
Reviewed By Cruising fan - Fair lawn nj | Traveled to Nassau | Bahamas | Caribbean
My disabled husband wanted to go on a cruise for his 70 th birthday. I didn’t think it was realistic. In stepped in Eileen Moldanato. She took care of absolutely everything. She did all the work. She found us a very affordable cruise that offered handicap accessibility. She also made sure that all our cabins were next to each-other. She even sent me photos of our cabin so I was reassured it would meet all my husband’s needs. She was attentive, thorough and quick to respond to all my questions. She truly made the planning very easy and our trip was wonderful. She even sent a birthday cake to My husband on the ship! I highly recommend her to Plan your travel needs. Thank you Eileen for everything!!

My Whirlwind Trip To Rome and the Amalfi Coast

The journey began in Rome, a city that smells of fresh espresso, damp stone, and a thousand years of history. I spent my days walking, letting the Eternal City unfold around me. The grandeur of the Colosseum at sunset was breathtaking, its ancient stones glowing gold as the crowds thinned. Evenings were spent in Trastevere, savoring cacio e pepe...
