European Land, Sea & River Cruise Travel Agent

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!

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!!

Aruba was amazing! Eileen helped with our choice of hotel. She chose the Riu Antillas! It was the perfect choice for the both of us! From organizing our flights to our stay and even checking us in online. This was my second time Elieen has booked a trip for me and I’m extremely happy I chose her. I will always turn to her with any questions. She is very knowledgeable and always available.

Eileen went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing experience from booking the flight/resort/transportation to getting back home. She made suggestions and had lots of tips to enhance the trip and helped us with any (small) airline issues we had along the way. We recommend her services to anyone who needs help with travel plans! Thank you for a fabulous trip!

Eileen Maldonato at Claddagh Travel Company is amazing! She planned the perfect mini vacation for my husband and me to Florida and made the whole process so easy. She was so patient and never pushy, really letting us take our time to decide what we wanted.

I have dreamt of this vacation for a very long time… and somehow, it turned out to be even better than I imagined! Truly feeling so thankful and so very blessed. Twenty-four years ago, after reading Eat, Pray, Love, I fell in love with Elizabeth Gilbert’s beautiful descriptions of Italy and added it to my bucket list. About three years ago, my husband and I started talking seriously with our friends who we love to travel with about making an Italy trip happen—and about 18 months ago, the real planning began. We were all over the map with ideas until we connected with the BEST travel agent: Eileen Maldonato of Claddagh Travel Company. From the moment we spoke, Eileen listened to our dreams, our preferences, and every little wish we had. She turned it all into a perfectly curated itinerary that exceeded all expectations. She didn’t miss a single detail—from amazing accommodations to unforgettable experiences. Even when we decided mid-trip to cancel two of our tours, she handled it with grace and ease, immediately finding an alternative tour and booking it without hesitation. Eileen, you helped us live out a long-awaited dream!?And when we returned to our homes back in NJ, we carried a lifetime’s worth of memories. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Claddagh Travel Company! ??

We recently returned from an unforgettable trip to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast, and we owe it all to our amazing travel agent Eileen Maldonato of Claddagh Travel Co. From the very first conversation, she listened carefully to what we were looking for and crafted an itinerary that exceeded every expectation. Every detail—from our glamorous hotel in Sorrento with breathtaking sea views to seamless transfers and expertly guided excursions—was handled with care and professionalism. We visited Pompeii, Amalfi, Ravello, and even spent a magical day on Capri. Each experience felt thoughtfully chosen and perfectly paced. No stress, no surprises—just pure enjoyment. What stood out most was the personal touch. Whether it was dinner suggestions with a view of the sunset or insider tips on the best spots to visit, Eileen made us feel like VIPs the entire time. Her knowledge and research of the region was outstanding, and her passion for travel truly shines through. We can’t recommend Eileen Mald

I can't recommend Eileen highly enough for anyone looking for a travel advisor who truly cares about creating perfect experiences. She planned two incredible trips for us so far, each one flawlessly executed. For our Ireland adventure, she mapped out an amazing route through the countryside, booking us into beautiful hotels and arranging guided tours that brought the history and culture to life. The tours she selected gave us incredible insights into Irish heritage and stunning landscapes. The Caribbean cruise she organized for our friend group was absolutely seamless. Coordinating friends with different budgets and preferences could have been a disaster, but Eileen handled every detail. Eileen doesn't just book trips – she creates memories. Her attention to detail, quick responses to our questions, and genuine enthusiasm for travel made working with her a pleasure. We're already planning another friend’s group cruise with her next year. Anyone looking for stress-free travel plann

My experience with Eileen was outstanding. Her attention detail was quite impressive. She made sure everything was in order for me. I haven’t traveled in a long time and she made the transition so easy for me. Her knowledge and professionalism were outstanding. I especially loved how she made me feel like I knew her my whole life. I highly recommend Eileen.!

I highly recommend Eileen as a travel agent. She has planned multiple amazing trips, most recently a pre-cruise tour, a river cruise, and a post cruise experience. We loved our Viking River Cruise!

This was our first cruise, Eileen found us an amazing deal, Balcony Room, drink and wifi packages included at a price I couldn't believe.

Eileen took care of all the arrangements

I cannot recommend Eileen enough! From start to finish, she made planning my trip an absolute breeze. She listened carefully to my preferences and created a perfectly tailored itinerary that exceeded my expectations. Not only were all the details handled seamlessly—flights, accommodations, and activities—but Eileen also provided great travel tips and was available to answer all my questions promptly. Her attention to detail and personal touches, like suggesting local hidden gems, made my experience unforgettable.
