Great Honeymoon to Morocco and Spain!
Reviewed By Ian & Meredith - Romeoville, IL | Traveled to Morocco ~ Africa
Yamonee was great to work with. She helped us from start to finish and got us everything we asked for in our honeymoon well within our budget. We knew we wanted to go to Morocco for adventuring and then to relax on the beach somewhere. We had a great time riding camels into the desert in Morocco and ended up on a beach in the south of Spain for our last few days. It was an amazing experience and we will definitely be working with Yamonee again on our future travels.

The easist way to vacation!
Reviewed By Kaili and David Kaminski - Elmhurst, IL | Traveled to Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Yam has planned two getaway vacations for my husband and I this past year. First was a trip to the beautiful island of Dominican Republic in April of 2017, she suggested a resort based on our interest, and guided us towards options that fit our budget, and the way we like to relax while on vacation. We had a blast, we fit it in our budget, and we honestly didn't have to think of a single thing, as she took all the hassle out of the planning. We were so thrilled with our trip, that when it was time to plan a late summer quick getaway, we called her once again. Not having a location in mind, she selected a few options that fit within our budget, and our interests. We were so impressed with her ability to take the planning off our shoulders, match us with the perfect vatations, and helping to make sure we were completely taken care of from start to finish, that our late summer getaway was completely relaxing.
We can't wait to engage Yam once again for this year's family vacation

I like off-the-beaten-path experiences. I encountered that while traveling with Yam prior to a cruise from Calgary to Vancouver.

Stress-Free, Well-Planned, overall Amazing Trip!
Reviewed By Sherry - Chicago, IL | Traveled to South Africa ~ Africa
My Study Abroad was in Johannesburg and Cape Town. However, I asked Yam if I could get to Johannesburg a few days before my group so I could adjust. Yam did more than that. She planned a 2-day layover in Dubai, and I arrived in Johannesburg before my group!
As an African American woman traveling alone, I had some concerns. Yam provided me with step-by-step information about my flight and airline and arranged airport pick-ups, hotels, and excursions. She advised me on navigating through TSA and sent me information on Dubai, Johannesburg, and Cape Town. She told me I could call her if I had any issues during the trip. That was so reassuring. Yam also sent me excursion information, which was so much fun. SHE MAGICALLY WORKED IT INTO THE ITINERARY once I figured out what I wanted to do!
She is so knowledgeable and helpful about everything travel! She patiently answered my questions and concerns as if I were her loved one.

Ms. Yam put together an epic father-and-son trip to the Camino de Santiago, requiring planes, trains, automobiles, and about 100 km of shoe leather. We didn't speak Spanish, but I felt confident knowing Ms. Yam was available if we needed assistance. She was in touch with us daily - almost as a friend, vicariously walking the trail with us.

Trip of a Lifetime -Antarctica, Chile and Argentina
Reviewed By SM - Toronto | Traveled to Antarctica | Antarctica
Our journey to Chile, Argentina, and Antarctica, curated by Yamonee of Yam Global Travel LLC, was flawless from start to finish. Chile amazed us with its breathtaking diversity—from the turquoise lagoons of the Atacama Desert to the glaciers of Patagonia, Torres Del Paine—while its warm people, exceptional cuisine, and world-class wines made every moment unforgettable. Santiago impressed with its modern, vibrant atmosphere, and Buenos Aires added a lively cultural touch before we set off for Antarctica.
Crossing the Drake Passage became part of the adventure, leading us to a world of stark beauty and extraordinary wildlife. Whales, dolphins, seals, penguins, and seabirds accompanied us against a backdrop of dazzling sunrises, rugged islands, and drifting ice. This journey was the perfect blend of adventure, natural wonder, and cultural richness—truly the trip of a lifetime.

Yamonee ensured our transportation to and from the airport was with a reputable transportation company they gave us clear instructions of which bus to take to the resort. The bus back to the airport came at the exact time they said they would. When we got of the bus someone was waiting for us to give us instructions of which terminal to enter. Our excursions had drivers that stayed with us all day to ensure our safety. They took us to shops that were safe and came in with us to the stores.
In our return flight, we sat at the back of the airplane when we joined the customs line there were 200+ people ahead of us. Yamonee told me to download the MPC (Mobile Passport) app. We went to a different line and there was 5 people ahead of us. We made it thru customs in 10 min instead of hours.

Best family cruise vacation!
Reviewed By S.E. - Oak Park, IL | Traveled to Bahamas ~ Caribbean
We didn’t know what kind of vacation to take with our two teens. Enter Yamonee! She suggested a cruise vacation. She knew exactly which staterooms to book to enjoy the trip while still saving money. The rooms were on the best part of the ship and quiet.
The choice of a cruise was perfect! The cruise had more than enough food selection to satisfy picky teen eaters. Both kids had a blast with free cruise ship activities (surf simulator, pickleball, laser tag, the gym, an ice skating show, and attending nightly movies by the pool). Since Yamonee has a lot of experience traveling, she knew about all of these.
We appreciated Yamonee’s attention to detail, too - she was in touch with us on first day of sailing to check on us and on the day of departure she even let us know that our return flight had been delayed. She ensured that our vacation was as smooth as possible. We highly recommend Yam Global Travel for your travel needs.

Working with Yamonee was so easy and amazing, I’m so lucky I found her. She helped me plan a wonderful family trip to Egypt visiting Cairo and Luxor after leaving our safari in Tanzania. She arranged all of our tours and flights and even checked in with us multiple times while we traveled to ensure everything was going as planned. She booked us with an amazing tour guide (Ahmed Taha) with Safina tours in Egypt who truly helped make our trip. I had initially started working with a larger commercial travel company who kept pushing their agenda and not hearing what I wanted. From the first time I spoke to Yam she really listened to what I wanted in a trip. I appreciated her flexibility to create a wonderful tailor-made trip for us. Yam is very knowledge having traveled many places herself and has years of experience. I highly recommend working with Yam, you will be in great hands! She’s patient, listens, is very responsive, and very experienced.
Yamonee Barboro responded
"Thanks for allowing me to plan a complicated air travel trip. I was a pleasure to book you on your family Safari and Egypt adventures. I look forward to work with you in the near future."
✓ I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Perfectly Planned Trip
Reviewed By CM - Chicago, IL | Traveled to California ~ USA
I would like to thank Yamonee so much for a well-planned itinerary for our trip to Southern California.
Every step you planned worked out wonderfully. You informed us of the traffic patterns and which highways to take to avoid traffic. You recommended where to get food and information we needed to know for each hotel. The specific road maps you outlined for each day was phenomenal. I didn’t have to think about anything else, but to follow your plan. I had nothing to be concerned about. I so appreciate the hands on, true customer service you provided along the way. I cannot thank you enough on how much it helped when I had a question, and you were there to answer it. Having you there and available gave us much confidence and peace on my entire trip.
I would highly recommend you. You provided exceptional services and your knowledge of the areas I traveled, was amazing!! I would rate your company, Yam Global Travel, a huge 5 star of Excellence!!

Walked with the Gods and Pharohs!!!!!
Reviewed By Margene - Mundelein | Traveled to Greece ~ Europe
Yanomee fulfilled my dream and trip of a lifetime, by planning my trip to Greece and Egypt. The tour guides were extremely knowledgeable. One of the guides in Egypt was a graduate in Egyptology of Cairo University! So going though the National Museum in Cairo was great as our guide showed us all the highlights and explained the exhibits.. Accommodations were fantastic and so was the food on both cruises. The accommodations on the Nile cruise was fantastic as there was only 135 passengers, which I prefer. All the tours had great guides and fluent in English and the native language. It was a trip of a lifetime and I look forward to Yamonee plan my next bucket list trip!!!!

A Granddaughter's Dream Vacation
Reviewed By Dianne - Chicago | Traveled to Galapagos Islands ~ Ecuador ~ South America
Yamonee is the best travel agent ever! She pays attention to every detail and tailors her trips to the needs and wishes of her clients. In this case, the trip was planned as a gift for my 10-year-old granddaughter, a born naturalist whose #1 dream was to visit the Galapagos. She knew every creature she wanted to see and Yamonee planned a trip that made sure we saw them all.
There was a guide to meet us at every stage of the adventure, the perfect amount of "down time" to do our own exploring, and the accommodations were excellent. When I became ill we had to cancel one leg of our trip, which incurred medical expenses and required me to book a hotel that was not included in our package. Yamonee stepped right in and filed the insurance claim to reimburse me for the extra expense. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Yamonee.

Once in a lifetime trip
Reviewed By Tala - Plantation, Florida | Traveled to South America
In March 2019, my husband and I, as well as 4 other family members/friends went on a once in a lifetime, month long trip to Ecuador, Galapagos, Peru and Chile. We contacted our travel agent, Yamonee Barboro, to plan our trip. She was a true professional and and worked with us to plan all the details of our trip in a short time, keeping in mind our budget. She booked our flights, hotels, train, transfers and guided tours.
In Galapagos, we had a friendly and knowledgeable guide, at every stage of time there. In Peru, we visited Puno/Lake Titicaca. We also went to Cusco and Machu Picchu, which was the highlight of our trip.
Our trip ended with a relaxing cruise from San Antonio, Chile to Miami, Florida.
Thanks to Yamonee for making this trip a truly memorable experience. !

Absolutely hands down the best vacation of my life
Reviewed By BP - Surprise, Az | Traveled to Grand Cayman ~ Cayman Islands ~ Caribbean
I found Yamonee to be a delight to work with. She is very knowledgeable and resourceful. She found us great prices for our Carnival cruise and our flights. She also found excursions that were that were fairly priced and were top notch.
We used the Tour Excursion Group for our excursion in Cozumel. I lost my phone and Gabriel from the excursion company went above and beyond to get my phone shipped back to me. I just received it yesterday safe and sound!

Train Travel in Europe 2022
Train travel is my preferred mode of transportation. I was on a month-long trip to Europe in October 2022 and traveled through 6 countries. I have traveled through Europe a few times previously. However, I noticed Europe has become crowded even in October, the shoulder season. Therefore, reservations are needed further in advance for trains and ...
