Awesome agent!
Reviewed By STM12 - Burlington, MA | Traveled to England | Europe
I have worked with Kristin on a number of trips over the years and she has always been amazing! Kristin makes sure we are comfortable before we travel and makes sure if we have any last minute questions, we have a call to get everything sorted before heading out. Our last trip was to England and it was perfect! We're already tossing around ideas for where we'd like her to book us next!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

The best trip and travel agent!
Reviewed By SamFM - Danvers, MA | Traveled to Barbados | Caribbean
This is our second time using Kristin to book our travel for us! Kristin is extremely professional and organized. Both of our trips have been to Sandals locations. Each time, Kristin presented us highly detailed quotes with all the information needed to help us decide on our trip plans. Once we settled on dates for our most recent trip, she was even able to secure us a deal as she is so on top of getting her clients the best price! With the stress of wedding planning, the task of planning my honeymoon travel as well seemed so daunting, but Kristin took care of everything! She answered my many questions and helped us every step of the way, even when I had last minute questions at the airport. I have had such a great experience with Kristin, and have recommened her to my best friend for her honeymoon travel as well. If you would like a seemless travel planning experience, you will be happy to work with Kristin!

Our trip was Finland then Russia. We had an excursion in Finland. It didn’t happen. We called our agent. Within a few hours we had a free excursion and a bottle of wine.
