John was very professional and always available. He gave me great information and was open and honest. He didn't try to sell me anything but gave me great advice. I really enjoyed working with John and we spoke recently and he is helping me plan our next trip. I found John on a google search for travel agents and he was rated 5 stars. I have passed John's name and contact information to a lot of my friends. I can't say enough about how professional and friendly he is. Thanks for everything!
Susan Z - Greece ~ Europe
The travel services John provided for our 12 day trip from California to Germany were exceptional.<br/><br/><br/><br/>The purpose of the trip was to visit Germany for the first time and take my son to his first professional German soccer game in Munich to see Bayern Munich.<br/><br/><br/><br/>John arranged outstanding tickets for the soccer game, excellent hotel accommodations, transportation, and day trips to tour the sites we wanted to see. Service was impeccable. <br/><br/><br/><br/>Many thanks!
Daniel - Germany ~ Europe
John was super professional . He listened to the thoughts we had for our trip and was able to give us options that met all of our needs. We had a remarkable trip to France. I would highly recommend John for travel assistance.
