Wendy's reviews

Can I give Wendy 6 stars?!?! Wendy is the best, and we will definitely be working with her again for our next trip! Wendy is a true expert, made obvious by the fact that her recommendations were clear and concise and she was incredibly responsive to questions and comments. I've worked with travel advisors in the past who have presented too many options while also leaving out key details, so it was a massive relief to feel like Wendy heard us, understood our vision for the trip, and made sure that we were well-informed without overburdening us with too much information. Wendy clearly has excellent relationships at the hotels she recommended because guest services were attentive and kind. I highly recommend Wendy!

Wendy is always wonderful!

Better than the hotel, was working with Wendy! Made the whole experience seamless and was everything she promised. Wendy kept in touch throughout and we plan to use Wendy for ALL of our future travel needs. Cant recommend her enough!

Wendy is quite simply, the best.
