Amazing first experience
Reviewed By SchwanFam513 - West Chester, Oh | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
This was our family's first time ever using a travel agent. I had always booked everything for our family for all of our previous trips, but a close friend recommended Marisa and with how extra busy our lives are this year, I thought "What do we have to lose?" We had everything to gain, Marisa was patient with us while we went through the deciding phase of where to go, so much back and forth and lots of ideas being tossed around, never once was she put out or annoyed. She took all of our wishes for what we were looking for (including the wishes of two teens and a pre-teen) into account on her suggestions and offers. From the time we booked to the time we arrived back home she took care of every detail and was checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly and we were having a good time. She even sent us a package of goodies for our trip before hand! I don't know if I can go back to planning my own trips now! Ha! Highly recommend, it truly takes so much stress out of planning and doing all the research. I can't speak highly enough of our experience!
Marisa Kopas responded
"Thank you so much for your sweet words! It was such a pleasure working with you; you were dream clients! I'm so glad everyone had such an incredible time. I'm so thrilled that you all loved this vacation. I am to make this process as stress-free as possible, so I'm glad you found it to be just that! I would be so honored to have a hand in your future adventures!"

The best honeymoon
Reviewed By Katie - Fairmont WV | Traveled to Playa Mujeres | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Marisa was absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish! She was incredibly informative, detail oriented, patient, and attentive throughout the entire planning process. Planning a trip can feel overwhelming with so many options (especially a honeymoon and planning a wedding) but she made everything so easy and stress-free. She took the time to help us narrow down destinations based on exactly what we were looking for and ultimately helped us find the perfect resort for our trip. Marisa consistently kept us informed with important updates, upcoming resort information, travel details, and recommendations, which made us feel very prepared and confident leading up to our trip. She was always easily accessible, quick to respond, and happy to answer any questions we had along the way. We are so thankful for all of her help and would highly recommend her to anyone planning any trip! We couldn’t have done it without her!
Marisa Kopas responded
"Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It truly means so much to me that I could be part of such a special milestone in your lives. I am so glad that you trusted me with such an important trip & for being so wonderful to work with along the way. This is exactly what I strive for, and I'm so glad that it hit the mark. Congratulations again on your marriage! I'm so excited for the two of you!"

What a trip !
Reviewed By Ronnie K - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Disneyland | California | USA
Marisa was so awesome to work with - not only did she give us wonderful suggestions, but she was really quick to reply to any question you had during the planning process. Every step of the way she made sure we were getting the ultimate Disney experience once we arrived, and once we got there everything was set up just as we requested. She even sent us several goodie bags to our home before we left. Once had some very nice treats, and the other had stuff we might need once we got to the park. Can't say enough about how great it was to work with her. Everything she did for us really paid off for a memorable family trip - highly recommend! Thanks Marisa !!
Marisa Kopas responded
"Thank you so much, Ron! You were such a joy to work with, and I loved bringing all the little details together for your trip. I’m so glad you loved the goodie bags - that’s one of my favorite parts! I love making sure my clients feel special & fully prepared for their trip.
Thank you again for trusting me with your vacation & for taking the time to share this. It truly means more than you know!"

Amazing dream vacation!
Reviewed By DisneyDad - Pittsburgh, PA | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
Marisa is the absolute best! Extremely responsive to any and all of our questions. She booked everything for us and lead to a seamless trip. She hit every detail and has a ton of experience navigating the parks, the lightening lanes and all of the restaurants. I wouldn't go back to Disney without Marisa's help and expertise. I would recommend her to all of our friends and anyone else who wants to have a fantastic Disney experience!
Marisa Kopas responded
"Thank you so much! You were truly dream clients to work with - I had so much fun planning this trip with you. Your excitement made the entire process that much more enjoyable on my end, too!
I’m so grateful you trusted me with your vacation, and hearing that you’d come back to Disney with me again is the biggest compliment I could ask for. Thank you for recommending me - it genuinely means so much to my small business! "

Second Trip Planning Success
Marisa is amazing! This is our second trip she has done for my family and she never ceases to amaze me. Marisa gets back to me in a timely manner with the answers to my questions, and she is extremely patient and kind.
She is someone who does not just book and ghost you. Marisa stays involved the whole time and truly wants to make sure your trip is magical and exactly what you want. I am so thankful I was introduced to her. Marisa will definitely be planning more trips for my family in the future.

All-Inclusive Milestone Birthday Success
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Marisa Kopas. From the very beginning, she made our trip completely seamless. Her communication was outstanding, and she made sure we were fully prepared and knew exactly what to do every step of the way. Marisa goes above and beyond in every way, and it is clear that she genuinely wants your vacation to be perfect.
We highly recommend her to anyone planning!

Disney Trip - Marisa was beyond helpful.
I don't think our Disney experience would have been nearly as good if we didn't have her help. Marisa was so patient walking us through all the different choices we had to make, and she always made time if we needed additional questions answered.
I cannot recommend Marisa enough, and I will be telling anyone I know planning a Disney trip to reach out to her!

We planned a cruise last year on our own.
Although we had a great trip, we were really unprepared for all the activities and events on the ship. This time we were so much more prepared and the cruise experience was so much more fun! Night and day difference from planning on our own versus using Marisa.
