We love Santorini for its extraordinary beauty.
Hi! We’re Bing and Joey!
We both grew up in the Philippines, a place that will always have our hearts. It’s a country made up of thousands of islands, with stunning natural wonders, amazing food, colorful festivals, and some of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. New Jersey has been our home for many years now, and we love how we’re surrounded by so many different cultures and cuisines right here in our backyard.
Travel has always been a big part of our lives. We’ve explored ancient ruins, watched sunsets on tropical beaches, tried foods we couldn’t even pronounce at first, and wandered through cities buzzing with life. Some of our best memories also came from simple road trips, finding little towns, hidden gems, and making each journey an adventure of its own. More than anything, travel has shown us how special it is to connect with people and places in a real, meaningful way.
In 2023, we started dreaming about how we could share this love of travel with others. That’s how our travel business was born. For us, it’s more than just planning trips. It’s about helping people create memories, discover new cultures, and experience the same joy and wonder that travel has brought into our lives.
At the heart of it all, travel is really about connection between people, between cultures, and with the world itself. We believe every trip adds something meaningful to our lives and helps us see the world, and ourselves, in a new way.
Let’s explore the world together, one adventure at a time!
Safe and happy travels,
Joey & Bing

My very first cruise
Reviewed By Anne A - Easton, PA | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
We booked our family cruise with Bing and Joey last December, and it was such a wonderful experience! It was my very first cruise, so I really didn’t know what to expect. Bing was fantastic! She patiently walked me through everything and helped set realistic expectations so my first cruise would be smooth, enjoyable, and truly memorable.
She gave me great advice on what to pack (including tips and medications in case I got seasick), shared all the fun activities we could enjoy on the ship, and suggested amazing excursions for the whole family. Bing was incredibly organized and even sent us a complete packet with all our travel documents. We just had to remember to bring our passports!
The customer service was outstanding and the level of care we received was truly unmatched. Our family had an amazing time and we happily recommend Dream Vacations with Bing and Joey to everyone we know. In fact, many of our family and friends have already booked their own cruises with them!
Bing Alfonso responded
"Dear Anne,
Thank you so much for this. Your kind words mean a lot to us!
We’re so glad your first cruise was such a great experience and that everything felt smooth and easy. It was a joy helping you and your family get ready for it all!
And thank you for telling your friends and family about us. We truly appreciate it. We can’t wait to help you plan your next adventure! ??"

European River Cruise on the Rhine
Reviewed By Michael S - Chesterfield, NJ | Traveled to Europe
It was a pleasure to work with Bing and Joey at Dream Vacations to plan our European River Cruise on the Rhine. From the beginning they took the time to listen to our ideas and provide different options that met our expectations. We changed our original dates to take advantage of a complimentary 3 day pre-cruise offer in Lake Como, Italy and it was all taken care of with no issues. Thank you again Bing for all of your help in making sure everything was taken care of for our memorable vacation on the Rhine River. It was a fantastic trip!
Bing Alfonso responded
"Dear Mike and Sharon,

It makes us so happy to hear that everything came together smoothly and that you had a fantastic trip. Helping you plan these special moments is truly the best part of what we do.
Thanks again for trusting us with your vacation. Whenever you’re ready for the next adventure, we’re here and excited to help."

River Cruise Experience - Rhine Getaway
There’s a moment at the start of a river cruise when you realize things are going to feel different, in a good way.
That stood out right away when boarding Viking Rolf on the Rhine River. The process was simple and unhurried. No long lines, no crowds to navigate. The crew greeted us as we stepped onboard, took our luggage, and guided us t...

Client Testimonials
Family Vacation to Punta Cana
Bing and Joey helped us tremendously in finding an all-inclusive resort in the Caribbean that fit our (including 2 teenage children) needs. The key differentiators from their service were i) Peace of mind, knowing that everything was taken care of even myself may not have all the details; and ii) Communications - Bing and Joey have always been responsive and willing to provide additional options on travel and accommodation. I am sure you will find your experiences with them a highly satisfactory one too!

Truly a smooth way of starting vacations
Booking & Planning vacations with Dream Vacations care of Bing & Joey Alfonso is truly a smooth way of starting vacations . Normally going to vacation is a lot work before you enjoy the actual vacation . One has to make sure that you have considered everything but with our short vacation in Aruba, we actually did not have to worry so much in planning . They covered everything and by the time we know it all we cared for is packing . Can’t wait for our next get away planned by them!

Our first River Cruise
Bing Alfonso was an awesome travel advisor for our very first cruise. Her guidance throughout the process of planning and booking the trip & different excursions were impeccable.
She was kind, patient, answered all our great and crazy questions since it was our first time doing a river cruise.
We loved every bit of booking the cruise to experiencing our first RIVER CRUISE! My husband and I are sold with this form of traveling and seeing the world.
We already signed up for the Nile River Cruise for 2027. AMAWATERWAY and HOSPITALITY go together.
Love it and thanks as always BING for introducing us to this way of travelling the world.
I will upload pictures from my phone later.

You guys are awesome
Thanks for making our cruise memorable. A big group is sometimes if not often hard to manage but you made our trip less stressful. A travel packet is a bonus we didn't expect but thrilled and came to good use. Once again thanks Bing and Joey. You guys are awesome.

Family Cruise Vacation
Bing, I can't thank you enough for planning our recent family cruise vacation! From the very beginning, you took the time to really listen to our needs, and you helped create another fantastic family vacation experience for us. What I appreciated most was how responsive and knowledgeable you were and your attention to detail. From making sure we had the right location for our cabins to hand delivering our cruise documents.
If you're thinking about booking a trip, I highly recommend Bing and Joey Dream Vacations. They turned what could have been an overwhelming process into something exciting and easy. THANK YOU Bing!!!

Mother and Daughter Trip
We are so thankful to Bing for helping us plan our Mother-Daughter trip to England. It was such a load off of our minds that Bing made flight and hotel arrangements, transportation from and back to Heathrow, plus she provided a couple of pre loaded Oyster cards waiting for us at the hotel! Bing booked some essentials like bus tours that included the Buckingham Palace changing of the guard, the Tower of London, Stonehenge, and Bath. She also gave us some free days to add our own items and made transportation recommendations so that we could reach destinations like Highclere Castle! I can't believe that our dream trip to England became a reality, and we are truly appreciative to Bing for making it happen!!

St. Lucia getaway
I typically plan all of our vacations but decided to try using Bing and Joey for our vacation to St. Lucia. We were very happy with the time they took to research a variety of options for us. Once we chose our resort, Bing worked out all the details for our flights, transportation and accommodations. She kept us informed about what we needed for international travel and expectations. We were very pleased with the level of detail and our trip was amazing!

First Ever Cruise
We have been dreaming for our first ever cruise and Dreams Vacation made it a reality! Thanks to Bing and Joey for guiding and arranging to make this happen. Their valuable insights and suggestions made us more comfortable and less anxious. It was our first and we were very excited, but not overwhelmed. This is the most memorable vacation we had so far… and we are already looking forward to book our next vacation (maybe another cruise) with them!
Dino D., Monmouth Jct, NJ
The trip was amazing!
The trip was amazing! Dream Vacations set it all up, choosing flights, times, rides to and from the airport, and the resort. They were all perfect and within the budget we gave them. These guys are good. In very little time it was all designed and we had a chance to review and approve everything. And every detail was executed without a hitch. I will never plan another vacation by myself!

Awesome cruise vacation
Thanks Bing and Joey for making the reservations for us. Your meticulous work from the first to the last day of our vacation ensured the best time we had in the cruise. From the service, to the room, to the food, to the entertainment and embarkation from the ship on the last day, we totally enjoyed the trip. And thanks for getting us the best location of the room on the ship. Looking forward to the next vacation.

Trip to Greece
Our trip to Greece with Dream Vacation Agency was truly unforgettable! From the moment we booked until we returned home, the experience was seamless, well-organized, and exceeded our expectations.
The itinerary was thoughtfully curated, covering iconic destinations like Athens, Santorini, and Mykonos, while leaving room for relaxation and exploration. They were responsive and ensured every detail was handled, from transportation to accommodations.
Dream Vacation Tours made this trip special with their attention to detail, personalized touches, and genuine care for our experience. We came home with wonderful memories, new friends, and a deep appreciation for Greece’s beauty and culture.
Highly recommend this agency for anyone planning a trip to Greece—or anywhere else.

First Family Cruise
Joey and Bing helped us to book our first family cruise and we are beyond impressed. They are knowledgeable about the process of cruising and vacationing. They went above and beyond to make sure we were set up with an itinerary that fit our vacationing style. We have a big family with lots of kids and they booked the perfect suite that allowed for enough room for the kids, but also lots of perks and activities for all as well. Looking forward to booking another vacation with Joey and Bing very soon. Highly recommend!
