Adventure by Disney
Reviewed By Karen A. - San Carlos | Traveled to Amsterdam | Netherlands | Europe
Linda suggested I try a river cruise because I’m not an ocean cruise fan. It was an Amawaterways Rhine River cruise. I went for it and I’m so glad I did!! Linda handled every detail of the trip, from flights to researching the daily choices for each stop along the river! And secured the best cabin too! Linda made sure everything fit my taste and comfort level. What a great trip I had with my best friend!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Wonderful river cruise
Reviewed By Shelle - San Bruno, CA | Traveled to Budapest | Hungary | Europe
We booked a Viking river cruise with Linda. The cruise was in July. We had to make a few changes to our dates. Linda handled everything perfectly and timely. She secured the flights and seats we requested along with our cabin on the cruise. Those two things were important to us. It was our best trip by far.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Above & beyond excellent service
Reviewed By ACHibs - Redwood City, CA | Traveled to Disneyland | California | USA
Linda is a true gem! She is my travel guru - not only exceptionally knowledgeable in travel planning, but also so compassionate, going above & beyond to understand & meet her clients’ needs. I am an avid Disney lover & Linda has planned many Disney trips for us with ease while providing lots of tips, tricks & even “real time” advice while we were at the parks. And when my daughter came down with a stomach bug 3 days before disembarking on our very first (and VERY well-planned) Disney cruise, I was absolutely crushed! Linda was so understanding & thanks to our well-spent traveler’s insurance (which I recommend to EVERYONE) and her unrelenting assistance, we were able to pivot our plans and spend a magical 5 days in Disneyland instead. Linda has helped us book several weekend trips as well & always provides updates, looks for any upgrades/deals, and ensures we have a comfortable stay. I will ALWAYS use Linda to book all our future travel! She is truly the best!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Linda is the best!
Reviewed By Lizzy - Grand Rapids MI | Traveled to Rome | Italy | Europe
Linda knocked it out of the park in assisting me with planning a transatlantic cruise. When an unforeseen conflict came my way with the original plans, Linda worked effortlessly to get me rebooked on a similar cruise of my choice. What a relief! She is quick to answer messages at all hours, extremely knowledgeable about everything related to Celebrity Cruises and always looks out for my best interests. I trust her with always getting the best bang for my buck.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing!
Reviewed By Carly - Clermont Fl | Traveled to Bahamas | Caribbean
Linda is so attentive and detail oriented. My trip was great and really appreciated her. Can’t wait until my next sail in April. She was able to get my friends booked for a sail and land adventure for July. Thanks to Linda for finding them such a deal!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
