MOST CARING TRAVEL AGENT
Reviewed By Grandmo - Medicine Hat, Alberta | Traveled to Caribbean
She has been awesome both times that we have booked our trips through Mershawn. She is professional, caring, concerned & just down right nice. Although I have never met her in person, I feel like I know her. She has emailed me, text me, phoned me to help with concerns that have come up due to health. Looked after booking wheelchairs at sea, in the airports, getting me on board credit & just generally wants to help me however she can. As I said at the beginning of this review, she is awesome!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

10 Days on Virgin Voyages' Scarlet Lady Nov 2021

Ever since Virgin Voyages announced their adult-only, 18+ cruises, I’d been eagerly anticipating my time aboard the Scarlet Lady. Sailing on this innovative line, I found it to be a disruptor in many ways, though not without its quirks. First and foremost, the crew made a lasting impression. They break the "cruise line mold" with individu...

HX Alaska: An Unforgettable Journey

When it comes to expedition cruising, it's often difficult to decide whether to highlight the unforgettable ship experience or the captivating land journeys - both are vital ingredients in crafting a memorable adventure. My recent voyage to Alaska aboard Hurtigruten's Roald Amundsen is a perfect example of this balance. Where to begin whe...

Marival Emotions: A pleasant Surprise

During our two-week resort hop in Puerto Vallarta, we decided to stay at this resort for one night between our other bookings. While it’s not my usual choice, it was convenient, and I was eager to explore what they had to offer. I discovered it was quite a lot. Even surrounded by 4+/5 star resorts, this 3+/4* property boasted my favorite Piano B...

Disney Dream as a Solo Traveler

When I was invited to join a Seminar at Sea on the Disney Dream, I was intrigued but uncertain about sailing solo on a Disney cruise - especially as an adult. The trip coincided with 2024’s Passover and NYC spring break, so I anticipated a ship bustling with families. Disney’s food offerings, while praised, felt on par with other mass or ...

We've worked with Mershawn on 3 trips, and she has been great at putting it all together for us! She finds awesome hotels and tours and makes great recommendations for excursions, transportation, logistics and all the final details. And whenever we've had a problem, she's been quick to address it. I can't imagine planning a trip without her.

Better than I imagined
Mershawn Foley is an absolute gem! She is a highly knowledgeable and savvy travel agent whom I have come to trust without reservation. After weeks of conducting my own research, and talking with a myriad of agents, I found Mershawn. From my first interaction with her, I felt at ease--her expertise in the travel industry was readily apparent and she was highly personable. Over the course of the months to follow, Mershawn was quick to respond to my inquiries, always patient, informative, and never intrusive. I have no doubt that she had my best interest in mind. Through Mershawn I was able to book a more luxury vacation than I had planned, at an amazing rate that I would not have obtained if not for her help and expertise. Thank you Mershawn!!! -
