Unforgettable Trip
Reviewed By KC0219 - San Diego, CA | Traveled to Seattle | Washington | USA
Seattle is a place I've been dreaming of going to since I was twelve, and it was through Szilvia's hard work and attentive eye for detail that this trip was able to happen. I had booked concert tickets and needed this trip to be planned around that. She helped me book my flight at an ideal time with an incredible price and upon my request was even able to book a hotel where I never had to Uber, and was able to walk everywhere I needed to: including the concert that I had booked, the Seattle space needle, and a variety of the activities that she'd worked into my itinerary. She helped me maximize my time and money there, and I am really looking forward to having her help out when I return. I cannot sing my praises for Szilvia enough.

First time in Hungary
Reviewed By Citylights - San Diego, CA | Traveled to Budapest | Hungary | Europe
My husband and I always wanted to visit Budapest, and when we decided to finally make it happen, a friend recommended Szilvia. She knows the city inside out, and she regularly visits Hungary. From our very first conversation, we knew we were in great hands. She arranged our flights, a hotel in downtown Budapest along the banks of the Danube, and provided us with knowledge that elevated our experience. She recommended trying out the public transportation, which is excellent in Budapest, even late at night! We visited the Gellert Thermal Baths, which is not as known as the Szechenyi Baths, but the experience was amazing, as you can see the Danube from the top of the building sitting in one of the thermal pools, incredible! We also walked across the Chain Bridge at sunset, with the Hungarian Parliament Building glowing golden on the riverbank, it was one of the most romantic sights either of us had ever seen. We explored the historic Buda Castle and Fisherman's Bastion, where the panoramic views over the city and the Danube simply took our breath away. Szilvia also recommended we visit the famous Ruin Bars of the Jewish Quarter, which turned out to be one of the most unique nightlife experiences of our lives. We visited the beautiful St. Stephen's Basilica, ate traditional Hungarian cuisine including goulash, chimney cakes, and langos at local restaurants Szilvia personally recommended, and ended each evening with a glass of Tokaji wine watching the city lights reflect off the Danube. Every moment of our Budapest trip felt magical, and that is entirely thanks to Szilvia's expertise, passion, and personal touch.

Perfect vacation
Reviewed By TravelMind - Budapest, Hungary | Traveled to San Diego | California | USA
As a Hungarian family based in Budapest, we had always dreamed of bringing our children to Disneyland in the United States. Planning a three week trip from Hungary to the USA is not easy, which is why we entrusted Szilvia to handle every detail of our vacation. From the moment we arrived in Los Angeles to our time exploring San Diego, everything was seamlessly organized and exceeded our expectations. Szilvia arranged everything, international flights, hotel accommodations, rental car, and theme park tickets, taking all of the stress out of what could have been an overwhelming experience. We stayed at a beautiful property in Vista, complete with a pool, gym, tennis court, and barbecue area, all just ten minutes from the beach and steps away from a hiking trail. She also arranged two nights in Anaheim within walking distance of Disneyland, which was an absolute highlight for the entire family. Throughout our trip we visited Disneyland, SeaWorld, Universal Studios, the Safari Park in Escondido, and the USS Midway Museum in downtown San Diego. Szilvia even secured tickets to the Del Mar Fair, an annual event we had no idea was happening during our stay, which turned out to be a very memorable experience.
Our vacation was perfect, and it would not have been possible without Szilvia's expertise, dedication, and care for her clients. We will absolutely be reaching out to her for our next adventure.

Tahoe Mountain Bike trip
Reviewed By JoeyG - Oceanside, CA | Traveled to Lake Tahoe | Nevada | USA
So I've been wanting to shred some trails in Lake Tahoe for years, and this year I finally pulled the trigger. A buddy told me to hit up Szilvia to help plan it out, and honestly best decision I ever made. She sorted out my flights into Reno, hooked me up with a sick lodge in South Lake Tahoe, and even lined up a bike rental with a solid local shop. All I had to do was show up and ride. And man, the riding did not disappoint. The Flume Trail was everything I dreamed, sick singletrack with insane views of the lake that honestly made me stop and just stare a few times. I also hit up Northstar Bike Park which was an absolute blast, great flow trails, gnarly descents, and the lift access meant more laps and less hiking. After riding all day, it was great to come back to a super comfortable spot close to good food and the lake. Evening walks by the water with a cold beer after a long day on the trails, doesn't get much better than that. Szilvia totally nailed it. She knew exactly what I was looking for and delivered without any hassle. Already thinking about next summer and she's definitely getting that call again.

Last minute trip
Reviewed By Susana1020 - Carlsbad, CA | Traveled to Sydney | Australia | Australia & New Zealand
When we received an unexpected invitation to a family wedding in Sydney, Australia, we had no idea how we were going to pull together an international trip on such short notice. Flights, hotels, and logistics for a last minute trip halfway around the world felt overwhelming until we called Szilvia. Within an incredibly short amount of time, she had everything arranged, from our international flights to a beautiful hotel in the heart of Sydney, all perfectly timed around the wedding celebrations. What could have been an incredibly stressful experience turned into an absolute joy, thanks to Szilvia's quick thinking, efficiency, and professionalism. Despite the pressure on time, she made sure every detail was taken care of so we could focus on celebrating with our family. While we were there, we took the opportunity to explore a little bit of this beautiful city. We visited the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and enjoyed fresh seafood with stunning harbor views. The wedding itself was held in a beautiful venue overlooking the city, and having the peace of mind that all of our travel arrangements were perfectly in place allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every special moment. We cannot thank Szilvia enough for making this trip so quickly possible. If you ever need a travel agent who can deliver under pressure without sacrificing quality, look no further.

Hawaii vacation
Reviewed By Islandlove26 - Seattle, WA | Traveled to Oahu Island | Hawaii | USA
Planning a family vacation to Hawaii with two young kids felt overwhelming at first, but we contacted Szilvia, and every worry melted away. She arranged everything perfectly, our flights, a centrally located hotel in Waikiki just steps from the beach, and a rental car so we could explore the island at our own pace. During our week in Oahu, we experienced so much more than we could have planned on our own. We spent our first days relaxing on the beach and learning to surf on the shores of Waikiki Beach, which the kids absolutely loved. Szilvia recommended we visit the North Shore, where we watched surfers riding massive waves at Sunset Beach. We snorkeled at Hanauma Bay, where the kids were excited to swim alongside colorful fishes and the sea turtles in one of the most beautiful natural bays we have ever seen. We also hiked up the Diamond Head crater, and the amazing views of Honolulu and the Pacific Ocean from the summit made the hike absolutely worth it. The historic Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial provided a great educational experience for the whole family, while the Polynesian Cultural Center treated us to an unforgettable evening of authentic island culture, music, and food that the kids had been talking about for days. Szilvia even had tips on the best shave ice spots, poke bowls, and not to mention Giovanni’s food truck on the North Shore. Every detail was taken care of, every question was answered, and every recommendation was spot on. Thank you Szilvia for giving our family memories we will cherish forever.

Our Maui Vacation
Reviewed By JoeY2014 - San Diego, CA | Traveled to Maui Island | Hawaii | USA
I wanted our first Hawaiian vacation to be perfect, so I decided to get a help of a travel agent and contacted Szilvia to assist with the planning. She arranged a nonstop flight from San Diego to Kahului, a rental car, and our accommodations at the Royal Lahaina Resort for a five night stay. Our main goal was to relax and unwind, but thanks to Szilvia's insider knowledge, we also discovered some truly incredible hidden gems along the way. She pointed us to an amazing secluded snorkeling spot at Honolua Bay, giving us detailed directions through a scenic trail to get there. We also visited the breathtaking Nakalele Blowhole, where powerful ocean waves crash into the lava rocks and shoot up into the air in a natural geyser display. We rounded out our adventure with the iconic Road to Hana, and made memorable stops at the stunning Black Sand Beach and the beautiful Wailua Falls. Thanks to Szilvia's careful planning and personal recommendations, our first Hawaiian vacation turned out to be absolutely perfect.
