Had a wonderful cruise!!!
Reviewed By Terri & Dean - Smithsburg, MD | Traveled to Bermuda | Caribbean
Renée was the best. From the very beginning stages of our planning, explaining, and going over details of our trip, she has been with us all the way. She answered all our questions, and got information on multiple trips before we decided on this cruise. When it was time to go, our folders were ready and filled with our travel tags and information that we needed for our trip. Very professional, very friendly and would highly recommend her to anyone planning to go on a trip. She makes it easy. Our destination to Bermuda was changed at the last minute due to a storm in the Atlantic. We were rerouted to St John New Brunswick Canada. It was a wonderful trip just being on the cruise with friends
Renee Kauffman responded
"Thank you for all of your kind words. It was wonderful working with you and your friends. I know that it was not the cruise itinerary that you planned and the change was out of everyone's control but it was great seeing you approach the adventure with open minds and enjoying time with your friends."

Renee was amazing! She helped plan a great itinerary and book tours and experiences that made my trip so enjoyable. This was my first time out of the country and she provided a lot of helpful information to make me feel more comfortable not only at my destination, but in the airports, traveling via train, etc. She was also very communicative and we had several calls going over the details of the trip. I would definitely plan another trip with her and recommend her to others.

An awesome first cruise!
Reviewed By Katurah89 - Yeagertown, PA | Traveled to Caribbean
Renee helped us from the very first steps of planning our cruise. We had no idea what all we were going to need to be ready to go. She got us an awesome deal on the 12 day cruise. She helped with getting our passports. She set up our dining time and preferences. Explained where she felt we would be the most comfortable having our our stateroom with it being our first cruise. Ordered a medical refrigerator to be in our room. She helped explain some of the islands and what might be a better fit for us as an excursion. She walked us thru everything and we are truly grateful to her. We will definitely be asking her to help plan our next adventure!
