Glacier Bay National Park: A UNESCO World Heritage site, this park features towering glaciers and diverse marine life, including humpback whales, sea otters, and seals.3. Sitka: Known for its blend of Tlingit indigenous culture and Russian history, Sitka boasts the Sitka National Historical Park, featuring totem poles and lush rainforest trails.

Best planned last minute trip!
Reviewed By Flora - Lincoln, NE | Traveled to Boise | Idaho | USA
Alisa understood my trip and destination better than me. She worked with me and all my time limitations, fears I had for this trip, plus my budget. I regret not adding car rental suggestion by her but I am glad that I got to rent a vehicle with such short stay. She's smart, cheery, and understands travel.

Great trip to Nuevo Vallarta!
Reviewed By Seymours Dad - Mountain View, CA | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta | Jalisco | Mexico
Alisa and I met via a cooking group during the pandemic. Much later, when she started her travel business, I wanted to give her some business, and my girlfriend and I were looking for a sunny-and-warm escape from California/Texas winter. Alisa found us the perfect getaway! Our start wasn’t as smooth as it could have been simply because GF and I didn’t make our budget (money and time) clear. Alisa suggested a number of amazing adventures which exceeded our modest intent, some of which were truly drool-worthy, but beyond our current budget. Another set of challenges was that packages for two start from one city, my but GF and I live a 3.5-hour flight apart. Add in fussiness about airlines due to status on one (thus far better seats) and, combined with a modest budget, we were probably the clients from hell. Alisa persevered and came up with a delightful package to Nuevo Vallarta, México, that was perfect for us, with non-stop flights from San Francisco on my preferred carrier. The res

Outstanding Travel Planning for My Greece Trip!
Reviewed By Angie - KC, MO | Traveled to Greece | Europe
I recently took a trip to Greece, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, all thanks to my amazing travel agent! From the moment we started planning, they were attentive to my preferences, budget, and must-see destinations. Every detail was perfectly arranged—flights, accommodations, tours, and even restaurant recommendations. I especially appreciated how seamless everything was, from smooth transfers to well-timed excursions. They truly understood what I wanted out of this trip, making it stress-free and unforgettable. Santorini’s breathtaking sunsets, Athens’ rich history, and the stunning beaches of Mykonos were all part of an itinerary that balanced relaxation and adventure beautifully. I also loved the personalized touches, like a surprise wine-tasting tour that ended up being one of my favorite experiences! I waited my whole life for this trip! If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond to create the perfect getaway, I highly recommend my travel agent.

She seems to ALWAYS be available to help us, and if she doesn't know something, she makes it her personal priority to find the answers and get back to us quickly with options.
