Best option for relationship based planner
Reviewed By Rian - Fargo, ND | Traveled to Baltimore ~ Maryland ~ USA
Karla is a detail oriented professional. She will ensure all aspects are considered when putting together a plan. She is an incredible listener and values relationships. She wants to understand what you are wanting so she can exceed expectations. She relies on her many years of travel when creating future experiences. She is particularly good at finding the less known excusions so that a trip is unique and not what everyone experiences. Finally, Karla skilled at researching and recommending the best places to eat out at that will tempt your tastebuds.
Karla Thoennes responded
"Thank you for the kind words, Rian! Can't wait to work with you again to plan your next trip!"

New York Washington DC Family Trip
Reviewed By Jason N - River Falls WI | Traveled to New York City ~ New York ~ USA
Outstanding, very helpful, went the extra mile! The sightseeing pass she lined us up with was extremely helpful for navigating the big apple. I do wish the Big Bus Tour and the Sightseeing Experiences could be better aligned without me having to do the map searches and figuring out the best route to take to hit the major attractions. But Karla's part in the planning was extraordinary!
Karla Thoennes responded
"Thank you for the feedback and review! So glad you had a wonderful trip! Thank you for including me in your planning."
