"Bucket List" Vacation Planning
Reviewed By J and C Hall - Atlanta, Georgia | Traveled to French Polynesia | South Pacific
We have had the pleasure to work with Laura on 2 "bucket list" vacations SO FAR. First, she helped us in Barcelona and then she helped up with Tahiti and French Polynesia. In Barcelona, we simply called Laura to talk about what we wanted to do and see and she did the rest! The next thing we knew, we received a complete itinerary including all of the outings we wanted, transportation details and "things to do" lists. The hotel she chose was fantastic and the itinerary exactly matched our interests. In French Polynesia, she was vital to getting all of the transfers and logistics handled. It would have been a mess without her. She reached out to the hotels and cruise line to make sure we had everything set, including appropriate documentation, transporation and excursions. She even helped me with currency and tipping information! I don't know what we would have done without her! We can't wait to plan our next trip with Laura. Thanks Laura for making our dreams become reality! We love working with you!

London, Paris, Barcelona dream trip
Reviewed By famguy - Kansas City, MO | Traveled to Paris | France | Europe
Laura planned an amazing trip to London, Paris,and Barcelona for our family. We didn't have the time to plan on our own, and we also weren't really sure where to start. Laura made sure we knew exactly where to go and what to do each day. Everything was in the app and everyone in the family knew what was planned each day. I highly recommend her!

Multi Country Itinerary perfection for our family
Reviewed By nan636 - St. Louis | Traveled to London | England | Europe
Laura planned an amazing trip for our family to London, Paris, Rome, and the Amalfi Coast that we never could have done on our own. She planned everything perfectly. The daily itinerary and all documents were on the app so we had stress-free travel between cities. The hotels, tours, and local experiences were all top-notch and our guides felt like friends by the end of each day. Thanks to Laura’s knowledge we had a trip we couldn't have planned on our own. She even included information to help us with packing and knowing how to fly internationally without worry. She had information on each country, so we felt comfortable with things like tipping and local customs. A truly fantastic trip; highly recommend her.

A Fantastic 3-Day Tour of Wrexham & North Wales Th
Reviewed By EvSan - Kansas City, MO | Traveled to Wrexham North Wales | Wales | Europe
I had the privilege of experiencing an unforgettable three-day adventure in Wrexham and North Wales. Laura secured an excellent local guide, Bryan, whose deep knowledge of the region and passion for sharing its history truly made the trip extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly arranged, with each day bringing new sights and unforgettable experiences.
We began our journey with a walking tour of Wrexham, where we visited and learned about St. Giles' Church and the vibrant Ty Pawb arts and market hub. Bryan's storytelling made the experience so fun, and we had the chance to explore hidden gems that we might have otherwise missed. We also had a fun and informative stop at Wrexham’s Racecourse Ground, where Bryan shared the storied history of Wrexham Football Club.
The next two days were spent exploring North Wales included Conwy, Llangollen, Snowdonia National Park, and the aqueduct. We also had the best fish and chips ever!
Thanks to Laura's meticulous plann

GASP with the Best!
Reviewed By Cheez Liz - Louisville, KY | Traveled to Germany | Europe
We went on a trip coordinated by Laura last year. It was awesome! Laura took care of the smallest details to ensure we all had a fabulous time. She provided plenty of tips in advance so we felt confident traveling to Europe for the first time. Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Prague are phenomenal destinations, but even better when you have someone who has been there before and lets you know how you should spend your limited time in each destination. I would absolutely travel again on a trip that Laura has planned.

First International trip was SOLO!
Reviewed By KateeLuvs - Kansas City, Mo | Traveled to Italy | Europe
My trip started with a plane ticket. I then called Laura and said help me plan. I was in Italy for 14 days! She knew I was adventurous and helped me plan the trip that was perfect for me! The first week was more structured with destinations and reservations. The second week was less structured because I rented a car and took a Southern Italy adventure. The whole trip was amazing and I couldn’t have done it without Laura!

Wonderful tour of London, St. Davids (Wales), Pari
Reviewed By JandEeurope - Roeland Park, KS | Traveled to London | England | Europe
Working with Laura really simplified the planning and logistics on this rather complicated trip. She got us really great hotels with locations that were very advantageous for our touring activities. The rooms and breakfasts were really nice and the prices reasonable. This trip involved a lot of travel by train and Laura handled all of the scheduling and ticket acquisition which took a lot of pressure off of us. We highly recommend Laura's services to anyone planning a trip whether domestic or international. She can not only handle the logistics, but she has wonderful ideas on sites to visit and things to do. Thank you Laura and great job!!!
