River Cruise Vacations

Matt was an excellent source of information for our Carribean Cruise and I would highly recommend him! This was my first cruise, and Matt was extremely knowledgeable and he made several recommendations that we had not even considered that made our trip several steps above what we had imagined!

This was our first time using Maidstone, but certainly will not be the last. Matt handled all of the everything from start to finish. From researching and recommending several destinations and resorts, selecting the perfect flight itinerary, and airport to resort transfers. Things couldn't have gone any more smoothly. Thank you.

Call Matt and call him early- his preplanning guidance was invaluable. Matt treated our vacation like it was his own and the result was our best travel experience to date.

Matt's service doesn't end once you book your trip. He took the extra steps to make sure that we navigated the COVID requirements for our vacation and stepped in when we needed a little extra help.

We won't plan another vacation without calling Matt first!

Wonderful. Matt is always available to answer my million questions. He makes it easy to travel for busy folks.

Matt helped us get our honeymoon trip booked to Sandals Ochi in Jamaica. He handled everything and made the entire process a breeze. We will for sure be working with Matt again and encourage other to book a trip with him as well. You will not regret it!

Matt made everything so easy! He took care of all the details and was very quick to respond to any questions I might have. Great to work with.

Let us know of packages and additions we were previously unaware of that helped a lot! Matt was always very responsive and easy to get a hold of. He used his experience and knowledge to enhance our experience!

After 10 years of marriage, we were able to enjoy a very delayed honeymoon. We decided to go to Europe but had no idea where to start. We were so thankful to find Matt who took all the stress out of planning! We loved every minute and all the suggestions. Our trip was so easy, effortless and enjoyable! Thank you!

Matt was great to work with. He took the time to listen to us so he understood our expectations for the trip and made recommendations that were pretty spot on. He did everything he said he’d do and made us feel like a valued client. We’ll definitely be using him on our next vacation.

Matt was knowledgeable and professional throughout. We provided our wants and desires for our trip and, Matt, he was able to deliver the resort, room choice and vacation we wanted. His expertise in travel also enabled us to limit wait times at airports and custom lines which maximized our vacation time.

Matt was great, both in terms of directing us to a spot that we'd thoroughly enjoy, but also helping plan the various details of the stay throughout the process!

This is the second trip we've booked with Matt and he again exceeded all expectations. He was patient and informative as we sorted out all of our options. The resort we booked moved their opening date to our arrival date so we ended up having a few issues with the resort when we first arrived. I sent one email to Matt letting him know about our issues and within a few hours he had moved mountains to make sure we were taken care of. The rest of our trip was fantastic and was exactly what we expected. I can't stress enough how important it is to use a good travel agent, and Matt is a GREAT travel agent.

Matt helped us plan a spring break trip in 2021 to Grenada. He received notice that the resort was not opening during that time due to COVID and he quickly assisted us with booking a trip to the Keys. We had a wonderful time in the keys! Will use him for all future travel!

It's always a pleasure to work with Matt Walker at Maidstone Travel, we can't say thank you enough! Matt is incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful when recommending your next get-away. Matt's expertise, attention to detail and customer service continues to exceeds our expectations, over and over again. We look forward to planning out next vacation with Matt, very soon!

For the 1st time ever using a TA for a trip & after finding Matt & viewing his profile, I must say that he never disappointed. He met all our needs from the beginning starting w/introduction & then planned call to discuss dates, places, interests, price ranges & type of accommodations. He put together several itineraries w/multiple choices to choose from all with video recording of each w/detailed info. to help us imagine the experience. Matt kept us informed & updated from day of arrival to the end of our stay & provided us w/the necessary documents needed including links to follow that made it possible to travel out of the country. We could not have planned this trip w/o Matt Walker.

We booked our honeymoon with Matt, he sent several excellent choices that met all of our requests! This was our favorite trip by far! His service is more than just the initial book. We had several follow up conversations along the way. He even checked to make sure we arrived to and from our destination safely.

Don't hesitate, book with Matt today - you won't regret it!

Matt was very thorough and helpful throughout the planning process.

Great guy. Attentive to our needs. Exceeded my expectations. Will certainly use him again.

Matt helped us plan a dream vacation. He was accessible and always available to answer our questions. He contacted us on our arrival day to make sure we had a smooth flight and rental car transition. Matt is focused on the details, and he sincerely wants clients to have the trip of a lifetime.

If you're looking for EXCELLENCE & OUTSTANDING SERVICE, Matt Walker is the real deal! Matt is always attentive to our requests, changes/additions & expectations. He also always offers addtional, personal tips and recommendations of things to do while at the resort. We were thrilled with a BEACHFRONT All-Inclusive, Couples Only Resort . Unlimited Food & Drinks, Water Sports, Excursions, & Entertainment. We look forward to booking our next vacation with Matt again soon!

Matt was fantastic to work with! He made our trip to Caerula Mar stress free and seamless. He kept us informed of any changes along the way and reminded us when we needed to submit our Bahamas Health Visa. Matt even had a zoom call with us after he visited the property. He showed us our unit we booked and the beautiful beach and grounds. We highly recommend Matt for any future travels and we will definitely be giving him a call for our next trip!

Matt was incredibly helpful in planning our trip to Turks and Caicos. I searched for the right person to help navigate travel during COVID and was very knowledgeable about travel restrictions, insurance and how to expedite our arrival to the island. He considered every aspect of our trip, which made for a wonderful start to a very relaxing stay at The Palms. We were very pleased with our experience with Matt and intend to work with him again in planning our next Carribean vacation.

Matt was great in planning our recent trip! He answered all questions promptly, was easy to contact, and made the process of planning an international trip during a pandemic easy. I can’t say enough great things about him!

Matt was great from A-Z. His knowledge of Hawaii put us on some of the best excursions. He was very candid when we were trying to make decisions.....which we appreciated. I also really appreciated how he helped us manage the covid constraints. He talked me off a ledge a few times! We have recommended Matt to all of our friends and family.

We were looking for a place to stay in the Caribbean but were not happy with the reviews we were seeing. We finally contacted Matt Walker and it was a great experience from the beginning to end. Matt listened to what we were looking for and was able to accommodate our requests with an awesome vacation. We decided on the Paradisus Palma Real and Matt also booked our airport transportation for us.

I highly recommend contacting Matt for all of your travel needs. He is very easy to talk to and responds very quickly to our questions. He is a great person and travel advisor!

Great travel Agent, will definitely be using him for all of my future trips. We went to sandals negril, Jamaica for our destination wedding and it could not have been more perfect. We booked this trip 2 years early and matt has been helping us the whole way through. There was a total of 16 of us in our wedding party booked for Jamaica and matt helped make sure we all had everything in order for the trip. Even when the covid hit and I became extremely stressed about the trip, Matt kept me reassured and made sure everything worked out accordingly. He is an awesome travel agent! Excited to already have our next trip booked with him.

Matt Walker is an elite travel advisor and is the best at his craft. My wife and I were so impressed by his luxury travel industry knowledge and his ability to answer any question that we posed throughout the process.

We could not be happier with our recent trip to Primland Resort. The resort was spectacular - we loved the world class SPA, golf course, activities, and, of course, the food! The greens on the Highland course are the best that I have ever experienced. The RTV experience was guided and so much fun (we even saw a bear)!

We are so grateful for Matt’s sound advice and for his unwavering support in helping us plan our perfect vacation. Thanks to Matt and his team for delivering an ideal client experience from start to finish!

We spent A relaxing week exploring the Florida Keys from Key Largo to Key West. We told Matt what we wanted, and the rest was done for us, from flights, to car rental, it was a worry free trip.

Matt made everything simple and easy! He was always quick to answer questions! He had everything booked within 2 hours of me deciding on a trip!

Matt was excellent in making our trip of 12 have the best trip ever! It’s always a smooth process with him and he is great at communicating with you!

GREAT!! Matt always gets us where we want to go!! He listens to what we want and makes it happen! Thanks Matt!!

Matt set up our trip from start to finish. He checked inon us even though he was on vacation too!

We trusted Matt's recommendation on this one and the experience exceeded all of our expectations. He is an excellent travel advisor.

One of the most memorable trips I’ve taken in a long time for my mom‘s 80th birthday! Was something I’ll never forget. ??

My husband & I were referred to Matt through my sister. She said he was the best & boy, she wasn’t wrong!! We had already booked our 11-day Mediterranean cruise when we reached out to Matt & were looking for help with flights, hotels, and transfers on the front & back-end of our trip. Matt’s customer service was impressive from the start. After our initial communication, he quickly jumped in and confirmed items related to our cruise booking. From there, he booked our flights & hotels for our pre- and -post cruise travel in Athens, Greece and Barcelona, Spain. He also arranged for all of our transfers. All along the way, Matt provided consistent & thorough communications related to our bookings to include pricing, due dates, etc. To add even another layer of organization, Matt also utilized the use of a special travel app (no charge to use the app!) where all of our reservations, confirmations and travel documents were able to be accessed quickly on our end. With a 17 day trip full of details, the use of the travel app was a valuable tool to help keep all of our info organized. Once we left out on our trip, the superb customer service from Matt continued. He checked in to make sure we had made it safely to Greece and our accommodations. Once we returned, Matt again checked in with a trip follow-up call to discuss our trip and gain feedback. We were extremely happy with Matt’s services and will definitely reach out to him to help with any future trips!

We wanted to book a trip to the Caribbean but didn’t know where to start. At the recommendation of a friend, we contacted Matt Walker with Matt Walker Travel. Matt took care of every detail of the trip. Matt was easy to work with and very informative. He literally took care of every aspect of our trip and made the planning process painless. He monitored our travel plans and flights, and was able to secure some upgrades to our flight plans when they became available after booking. We flew during the government shutdown and Matt checked on us at every leg of the trip, making sure we arrived as scheduled. We can’t say enough about how helpful Matt was in making our trip easy and carefree. We’ll definitely be working with Matt on our next trip, and we highly recommend him.

We were looking for a last minute vacation and Matt came to the rescue. He was able to find exactly what we were looking for and handled all the details, including air, hotels, transfers and a fabulous cruise with Windstar. Matt pulled it off and we had the best vacation!

Our cruise was amazing! Matt planned a wonderful vacation for us! We enjoyed seeing new places for the 1st time. We loved the extra amenities included in our concierge package. Great accessible cabin! We loved the balcony!

It was awesome to have Matt join us in Puerto Plata Classic Car Tour, meeting with him and his friends was great experience. Until next time Matt

From the beginning to the end Matt always had our backs. No matter what question we asked he had an answer even if he had to do some searching. We ran into trouble completing our Vietnam Visas but Matt helped us through it and even had a backup plan if we needed it. He even called to make sure we got home safely!! Matt is the BEST!!!

Matt was phenomenal from start to finish. From providing options to booking flights once we decided on location, even updates on returning schedule changes. We could not have asked for a better experience. Already working on another trip and using Matt to help with the details! Thanks for all you did, we really enjoyed it!

My husband and I took a “bucket list” trip tor 12 days to Ireland and Scotland. I researched where we wanted to go and what we wanted to see and Matt took it from there to plan a very nice itinerary. He coordinated with me throughout the process to make sure all bases were covered before we travelled and was available during the trip when I had a question. Everything went very smoothly with almost no issues. We will definitely call him again for our next big adventure!

This was our first-ever river cruise, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better introduction! From the moment we stepped onboard, everything was seamless and relaxing. The staff were warm, attentive, and always went the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable. Our cabin was spotless, cozy, and loved the heated bathrooms floors. Totally unexpected. The itinerary was perfectly paced—we explored charming towns, historic cities, and scenic countryside, all while enjoying guided excursions that were informative but never rushed. There was plenty of time to wander on our own as well, which we loved. The food was a highlight: fresh, local, and beautifully presented at every meal. Matt made all the arrangements and we never had to worry about anything. It was really a first rate experience.

It was an awesome experience and Matthew did and excellent job making sure everything went smoothly! Will definitely recommend Matthew to anyone looking to take a trip

We just returned from a 5-day stay at Excellence Punta Cana, and overall, it was a wonderful experience. The resort itself is absolutely beautiful—lush, well-maintained grounds, gorgeous pools, and a stunning beachfront that made every moment feel like a true escape. What really stood out to us, though, was the staff. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every single team member went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality set the tone for our trip and made all the difference. The food was generally very good, with plenty of variety and options to suit any mood. We especially enjoyed some of the specialty restaurants, which offered flavorful dishes and creative presentations. That said, not every dining experience was perfect—there were a couple of restaurants that didn’t quite hit the mark for us, but it was easy to move on and find something else we enjoyed. All in all, Excellence Punta Cana delivered a relaxing, memorable getaway. Between the stunning property, outstanding staff, and overall experience, we left refreshed and already talking about when we might come back. We are thankful to Matt for his professionalism and thoughtfulness. He definitely made this a easy transition.

Matt Walker did an incredible job planning our trip to the Andaz Resort in Costa Rica! His attention to detail made our vacation seamless and unforgettable. We loved tubing down the breathtaking Rio Celeste, with its vibrant turquoise waters, and jet skiing in the bay near the resort was an absolute thrill. The Andaz Resort’s service was top-notch, with every staff member going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The restaurants were fantastic, offering diverse and delicious options, and the coffee was exceptional - a highlight of every morning. We also had a blast following the playful howler monkeys around the resort, which added a unique charm to our stay. Thank you, Matt, for crafting such a perfect getaway!

Matt always makes our trips perfect from when we leave our home until we return. Everything part of the trip is planned perfect!

We had the most incredible and relaxing trip to Turks and Caicos, all thanks to Matt Walker Travel! From start to finish, everything was seamless — flights, transfers, restaurant recs, and the perfect resort. Every detail was thought of, which allowed us to truly unwind and enjoy the turquoise water, white sandy beaches, and the peaceful atmosphere. Matt made planning stress-free and customized the trip exactly to what we wanted. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely use him again for future travels. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a dream vacation without the hassle of planning!

Absolutely fantastic. AMA Waterways never fails to impress us and take care of everything. I see so many questions on facebook regarding upcoming trips and the answer so often is check with your TA. Well We don't have to as Matt takes such good care of us at every turn and answers questions before we have them. Even helped find and get our luggage to us a few trips back.

Wow! What an amazing Cruise for our Family of 6! We enjoyed traveling with friends and family to one of the most beautiful destinations - Alaska! We can always count on Matt to help make each trip just fantastic! Whether for family trips or adventure with friends or adult only getaway's, he is always there to guide us and offer insight and suggestions on the BEST things to do and see. Matt continues to exceed our expectations, time after time!

Very nice boat! Lots of room.

From first asking Matt for options to visit Japan until the day we were back in our home over many months, Matt was right there ready to answer questions, confirm plans, and make each moment perfect when things needed a slight change. He thought of every detail and followed up on the detail until it was complete. That’s the thing with Matt - he just keeps working to make your vacation perfect even when you think he is done. Your “best trip ever” keeps getting better because he never stops ensuring that it truly is perfect.

Matt is awesome! I normally book through travel sites and research myself. Matt provided options and recommendations that perfectly met our family’s wishlist for the trip. He coordinated with both our family and a family we were traveling with catering to both needs (this can be tricky!!). Also, we had to change the dates last minute to delay 2 months — Matt made this process super easy and painless. He was able To make the change for minimal cost which definitely would not have been the case in DIY booking. We had a fantastic trip enjoyed by party of 8 with his expertise! Highly recommend!

Matt made the entire planning experience for our Alaska cruise seamless and easy. In addition to the cruise, he took care of our ground transfers, pre cruise hotel, and flights. He even sent me updates when our flight was delayed or a gate change. We will definitely continue to use Matt for all our travel needs.

Matt was on top of everything from our initial discussion about cruising this year. He helped me take care us everything and in my opinion booked the best cabin on the ship for us. He also completed air travel and our hotel in CA. This was a stress free trip because of Matt.

We had a great family trip! Matt listened to our list of wants and budget. He worked to check all the items off. He also made recommendations of which we followed and it turned out great!

We had a wonderful trip with family seeing some of God’s beautiful creations! Matt made our trip easy and fun by preparing for our needs ahead of time.

My family of 5 just recently went to the Bahamas on a cruise that I booked through Matt. We had a great time and he was very thorough with all the details and paperwork. He got us a great deal!

att takes all the stress out of planning a trip. He handles all the logistics and ensures you are knowledgeable of all the local can’t miss experiences. Matt checked in with us on arrival and again before Leaving and was available throughout to try to make our trip as amazing as possible. Take the stress out of traveling and use Matt for all of your family adventures.

Matt did an excellent job of taking all of our wants into consideration and provided us with several amazing options. The trip we selected to Aruba was outstanding and Matt did an excellent job of coordinating and keeping us updated.

I have been using matt as a travel agent for a few years now. I would highly recommend!

This was a very restful & beautiful trip.Matt was an excellent travel advisor.He was always a phone call away when needed.

Matt took care of everything and was very knowledgeable to help answer detailed questions such as how much parking is and where to go to get to the port. Help to make sure that and other families booking was linked up with our so we could all eat together. Highly recommend

Matt was able to get my family a great cruise for the dates we needed for a great price. I could not be happier with the services he provides. I always know I’m going to be well taken care of.

Matt was fabulous. From the initial ideas on posdible trip options thru scheduling and addressing any arising questions, Matt was professional, knowledgeable and timely in meeting any needs we had.

Matt Walker worked diligently and expediently to help myself and many friends/family of friends book rooms on the Icon of the Seas at a ridiculously good sale price! We had the time of our lives and immediately messaged him upon arriving back how much we appreciated it and hope to do it again in the future! He's a phenomenal agent that went above and beyond for our group, highly recommend him!

Matt hooked us up with an awesome deal for Icon of the Seas and the ship did not disappoint! Matt kept our large and changing group straight leading up to our trip and made sure we had all the information we needed before we got on board. He also connected us with one of team members on the Icon so we were in good hands when we got on the ship. Matt is the only travel advisor I use and the only one I recommend to my friends!

Matt did a great job arranging a trip for my friends and I on the Icon of the Seas. Everything was communicated clearly and we had no issues booking our trip.

I had the time of my life! Well worth the money I spent. Matt gave me an opportunity I've never had before and I'd do it again.

We were having a hard time deciding where to go. Matt asked very thoughtful questions and made a recommendation, and I must say - Sandals Barbados was amazing! He was patient with us as we worked through our choices and then as the trip approached he was attentive and thorough, always checking in - even the day of departure. Will definetely be a repeat customer!

Matt was so accommodating and easy to work with! He got us an amazing deal and was able to coordinate everything for a large group. We will be going to Matt for all our future travels!

Matt did a wonderful job of planning our trip to St Lucia. He initially gave us several options where to stay and after we made our selection he was excellent with the details and kept us informed through the entire process. A few days before we departed he called to go over the entire itinerary and answer any last minute questions we had. I highly recommend him!

This was our fourth vacation with Matt and each one has been excellent. Even though we had to change resorts midway through the planning Matt did a wonderful job of listening to our wants and needs and provided us with multiple options. Thank you, Matt, for your help and guidance. Can’t wait to plan the next one.

Matt always makes it so so easy. All transportation is taken care of and reservations! Matt will be my travel agent yesterday, today, and tomorrow!

was a very indecisive client for Matt Walker because I knew nothing about Paris other than what I had seen in Hallmark movies. I gave him hardly nothing to go on other than that. He took into consideration everything I said and gave us the most incredible trip ever. Our hotel was located in the perfect central location for sightseeing, shopping and amazing food. He arranged a personal tour guide to pick us up at our hotel the morning we arrived and he took us around town to see everything on my list along with things I had not even mentioned. I can never thank Matt Walker enough for making my trip so unforgettable ??????

Matt Walker is the only choice for personalized travel. His attentiveness to what you are desiring is impeccable. Matt’s professionalism and his extensive contacts allow him to cultivate any experience you describe. We have used his services multiple times and he consistently delivers even remembering specific details from previous trips. Would not vacation without Matt Walker.

The first thing to say is that Matt did a wonderful job putting together a trip for a group trip of 12. Not just six couples, but six couples from literally every corner of the US. Matt talked through locations, expenditure and logistics (and challenges if they arose) and absolutely nailed the trip for us. The Excellence Punta Cana was a wonderful resort. Beds were comfortable, views were great and food was incredible (especially the Pad Thai at Spice). We all are thankful for Matt and his expertise in the travel industry. We are all ready planning our 2026 trip. Thanks, Matt!

We have always had a successful experience working with Matt. He is a knowledgeable travel agent and very sensitive to our needs as we travel.

Matt Walker is the example for others to follow. He always goes in depth and goes way above and beyond the call of duty from initial questions to booking, from before leaving to arrival and trip home. Absolutely the best there is.

Matt was extremely helpful in working out the details of our trip to Alaska. He took care of the flights, arranged the tours and created an excellent experience for us. The arrangements were perfectly organized and made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. A job well done. Highly recommend!

Our family trip to Turks & Caicos was absolute perfection, thanks to our incredible travel agent! Matt handled every detail seamlessly—from stunning accommodations to unforgettable excursions—Matt made sure our vacation was stress-free and unforgettable. I highly recommend Matt for anyone looking to book a dream getaway!

Matt is great to work with! We have used Matt twice and have had great experiences each time!

Matt made everything so easy!

Hands down, best travel advisor and friend. Couldn't have asked for a better trip with some of our favorite travel friends. Matt knows travel inside and out. He can recommend some of the very best trips and continues to exceed our expectations. We laughed, ate, swam, shopped, went to the spa, saw some shows, danced, and saw some of the most beautiful water in the world. Most importantly, we made memories with friends we cherish dearly, and we look forward to our next trip together! Matt truly cares and is able to provide you with the very best experiences.

My husband and I knew we wanted to head to the Caribbean somewhere just not sure where. We were referred to Matt by some close friends and Matt helped us find the perfect island for us. Matt asked some questions and got a proposal together for us of some great islands & resorts. Matt listened and found us the PERFECT vacation spot! We had the most relaxing vacation and the most beautiful resort! Thank you, Matt!!

Matt is very knowledgeable of his industry. He makes the booking process very smooth. Whenever I reach out to him he is always prompt to respond. He found us a great rate on our cruise to the Bahamas. He took care of every detail including booking a hotel room for us on the way to our cruise port. He is a pleasure to work with and we already have another trip booked with him!

My wife and I did a split stay between 2 resorts in St. Lucia arranged by Matt, and we both agree it was the best vacation we've ever been on. We had a rough idea of what we wanted to do for our Honeymoon, and Matt really helped us hone in on the best way to get it done. It is also worth mentioning that he had just as valuable insight on what locations or choices we should likely avoid in the planning process. He also got us a much better deal than I believe we could have gotten on our own. I wouldn't go on another Caribbean vacation without Matt's help. 10/10 trip.

Matt was always available to answer questions an went above and beyond when problems arose with one of our airline segments. We received much needed information on alternative insurance products.

Matt was organized and attentive to every detail. His communication is timely and he covers everything with expertise. Would highly recommend and we will be using his services again!

Matt took all the guess work out of our family vacation to Hawaii. It was a trip we will remember for the rest of our lives!

Matt is AWESOME! He offers suggestions that make the travel experience better. He is very proactive.

Matt is a pleasure to work with. He is always prompt in my inquiries or whatever else I need. Matt makes the reservation process smooth and simple!

Matt listened to everything were looking for in a summer vacation with our young kids, gave us several great options and we ended up picking somewhere we never even considered! It turned out to be an amazing trip! He was professional, considerate and knowledgeable. Matt made the whole process easy and we will definitely use him again next year!

Seamless vacation. We didn’t have to worry about any of the details! Matt took care of it all and let us relax and enjoy!

Matt's services and knowledge made our quick getaway trip to the Caribbean easy and without stress. From hearing our interests to providing a selection of options which saved us the hassle of hours on the internet to booking our flights and checking in along the way, Matt secured our patronage for future excursions.

Matt is knowledgable, personable, capable and a pleasure to work with

Working with Matt is nothing less than wonderful!!! Every question, concern, need, he takes on and gives nothing less than 110%!! If he doesn't know the answer to a question, which rarely happens, he finds out and gets back to you. He believes in follow through and that is rare to find nowadays!! If we could give Matt more than 5 stars we would!! You're a 10+ in our book!!! Thanks again for helping us with our trips, you're the BEST!!

We have worked with Matt on multiple trips and he is always a wealth of knowledge, prompt, and professional. He makes sure the entire process is smooth from start to finish.

Knowledgeable, very helpful, and goes the extra mile to set up a great experience.

Matt was amazing to work with. Our group (4 couples) traveled to Punta Cana in January 2023 and Matt helped us every step of the way. He made the planning process easy and seamless. We gave him our vision and budget and he took that information and knocked it out of the park. Matt was available to answer all of our questions and made great suggestions. We appreciate his willingness to go above and beyond and we can't wait to book our next trip with him!

Quick to answer, easy to work with, top of the line!

Super easy to work with Matt. He got us setup with a great resort and awesome activities.

Matt is consistently thorough and responsive. He answers my questions and genuinely wants to make sure we’re planning the best family vacation. This was our second time working with Matt in planning a major family trip. He did not disappoint!

Matt is great, he worked hard to find us the best value and went through the options thoroughly.

Matt is prompt, professional and resourceful. Thee were so many additional benefits to using Matt, that I had no idea I would receive to include an upgrade, vouchers, etc. just overall a wonderful experience and already planning the next trip.

Matt was great to work with and found us exactly what we were looking for.

Matt is always the professional while making a personal connection at each step in the process. He listened to our goals for our family cruise group reservation. Having a group can be a challenge, but Matt did all the heavy lifting so that we could focus on the fun! I have already recommended him to friends and coworkers.

I'm happy to say that there were no hiccups and it was a great experience! Royal Barbados was an immaculate resort with awesome service! We loved the restaurant choices and really enjoyed having the butler. Our room was great with a beautiful view! Flights were on time and U. S. Customs moved really quickly. We got to do a good bit of exploring the island as we went to Oistin's Fish Fry and to the other side of the island to see the Animal Flower Cave. Sandals has set the bar pretty high for our next trip! Thanks for organizing it for us! We created memories that'll last a lifetime!

Matt was excellent to work with in planning our Babymoon to Stowe, VT. He was very knowledgeable about the area, even giving us a list of must see items and list of best restaurants. Matt checked in on us the day prior to leaving and even made sure we arrived safely. I would highly recommend Matt in planning your next trip!

Matt was great to work with on this trip! He found the perfect resort to celebrate my birthday! Everything was awesome. I look forward to booking my next trip with him.

We have used Maidstone Travel several times now to book vacations, and I will never not use them! Matt makes it super easy to book a vacation! We have thoroughly enjoyed our vacations and it was stress free every step of the way!

Matt is always very thorough and helps with every stage of the process. He is always willing to answer any questions that arise.

Matt was excellent on all fronts. He was not only helpful in setting up the vacation but followed through the entire trip to be sure we were having a great time and everything met our expectations. I strongly recommend his services!!

Matt was great. I needed help planning a nice surprise birthday getaway with my wife. He came back with 3 great options & the Puerto Rico trip was just what the doctor ordered! We had a great relaxing time in a wonderful place. We kept saying "we need to bring the kids back here," and I'm sure we will.

I reached out to Matt to find a family friendly Caribbean vacation for my family. We have a 2 year old and a 4 year old and were looking to escape the northern winter as an early Christmas present. Matt did a quick phone call to get all the information and immediately had some ideas on what would be convenient for our family. Hey even though about travel time to and from the airport which I would never have considered! He sent us several options in our budget with different room options to choose from. Once we selected our resort Matt was a BIG HELP with getting all the documentations needed to travel during a pandemic. This was a big stressor, however when it came down to it Matt gave us everything we needed to do, sent us information on testing, travel insurance, etc. and put my mind at ease. He also sent us an email prior to our department with some things to do at the resort which were all excellent. We would definitely use him in the future and had an amazing time!

Matt was a joy to work with - very attentive to every detail and made excellent suggestions for location, dining, and activities. COVID presented many challenges which he met with grace and good humor and persevered to get everything we wanted for our trip.

Matt created a great vacation and made it very easy for us. We started off with a call where we told Matt our very few ideas and requirements. From that he came up with a few options. We chose to stay in a hotel that was everything we wanted but would never have found, and in the perfect location. We enjoyed everything we asked for and got to discover a little more. Matt understands how to handle all of the little details to make a trip relaxing and peaceful, while ensuring you have access to the activities you want. This was not an all-inclusive package, but all of the transportation and housing details were covered and explained so we were able to simply not worry about anything.

This last minute trip was just what we needed to relax and enjoy soaking up some sunshine. Everything from travel to the resort and stay there was perfect. We will definitely be using Matt to plan our next trip.

We have been working with Matt for years now. Multiple trips. We keep coming back because of his expertise and candor. He takes time to know and understand our interests. Seems like an obvious thing, but I find that rare today. We appreciate his attention to detail. We don’t have to worry about anything. Just to enjoy our trip!

Matt was very attentive to my questions and needs and available to discuss any time I reached out.

Matt is always great to work with. This was our third vacation using Matt and he always delivers. He listens to our needs/wants and works to see that those expectations are met and exceeded when possible.

When my wife and I decided to take our first Caribbean vacation, we didn't know exactly what we were looking for. We met with Matt and he narrowed it down to 3 options that would have everything on our wish list. His trip planner portal made it easy for us to navigate all the different options and amenities. With his recommendation, we decided on Sandals Barbados!
This resort had clear blue warm waters, 18 different dining options, swim up bars and a VERY attentive staff.
We are so thankful to have Matt help us navigate and organize this trip from beginning to end. Matt was attentive and always available to help answer questions and point us in the right direction. I would absolutely recommend Matt and Maidstone Travel for any and all future vacations.
Thanks for the trip of a lifetime!

We loved using Maidstone ! Matt is extremely helpful from booking the trip to when you return home! Matt sends an itinerary with all of the trip details. This helps so much and I don’t have a single bit of stress about our trip!

Matt Walker was a tremendous help in finding the perfect Holiday vacation for my family of five. This was a first for our family to travel all together outside the US and a first to travel during the Holidays. Matt offered me options to choose between that would provide us a great vacation. We ended up choosing a Christmas Cruise where Matt found a better value for balcony cabins then travel for New Years for a lesser cabin. Travel during Christmas and New Years is both busy and expensive but Matt knew we were limited to this time period and worked with us to find a great vacation within our budget. He continued to provide us useful information leading up to our trip which helped everything go very smooth. I really appreciated that level of service and concern to give us a vacation that we will always remember!

Matt did a great job of giving us good options for our trip and in a timely manner. He was very accessible and it was easy to get questions answered. It made it so easy to let him handle comparing resorts, airfare, etc. instead of spending countless hours/ days online. We had an amazing trip and our room even got upgraded to the Presidential Suite! It was such a wonderful experience- Thanks Matt!

Matt was great in arranging our Japan ski vacation. Having never been to this particular resort before, Matt was great in researching the various options and arranging all of the intricate details. Those details started from the moment the flight landed, included great guiding services, and unbelievable dinner reservations as well! Would definitely work with Matt again, and looking forward to the next trip!

Absolutely amazing! Mr. Walker went above and beyond making sure all was handle perfectly. This was our first cruise experience, as well as, our first time using Matt. We will be doing this again. This trip was a Christmas present for the whole family and went through Nee Years. Not only was the trip perfectly planned but Matt answered all questions quickly and explained things clearly and timely. Absolutely amazing.

Matt is extremely thorough and is always willing to
help answer any questions. I’m addition to his customer service and knowledge, his responsiveness is also among one of his greatest qualities. I hope to work with Matt again in planning our next family getaway. Couldn’t have asked for a better agent!

Matt was fantastic! I asked Matt to give me some options for a "Family" vacation with sun and clear water. He provided several options varying in location and price. Ultimately we selected the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas and I am very pleased with our decision. The Ritz-Carlton St Thomas was a great family vacation with excellent accommodations, private beach, inclusive water sports and a variety of dinning options. Matt planned our entire trip including airlines, ground transport, lodging, etc. He even followed back up with airlines after they reduced a charge and we received a refund! Matt followed through before, during, and after our family vacation. I couldn't be more pleased with his extensive knowledge, commitment to professionalism, and diligence in the details. I would highly recommend Matt and Maidstone Travel for planning your next adventure.
