Amazing Family Vacation to Europe!

Jennifer helped us plan a fantastic family trip to Europe. She took the time to listen to our dream trip and mapped the perfect itinerary within our budget. The flights and hotels were perfect. Jennifer took the pressure off us in planning a very memorable vacation.

First trip to Maine, absolutely great

Jennifer was absolutely great, she's like a having personal concierge at your service, she took care of everything fro A to Z, including travel, hotel, car and activities reservation. I was able to call her for any detail and she was always 100 % responsive and available. I will hire her for any of my upcoming trips. AAA+

Excellent communicator! Great researcher!

My group and I had an EXCELLENT experience working with Jennifer. She was very communicative and researched carefully to give us great options for our trip. We were excited about it. When we weren’t able to go because of factors outside of our control, Jennifer worked hard to get us a refund (and was successful!). Thank you, Jennifer!

Jennifer saved my honeymoon!

I can't recommend Jennifer's services enough. She helped my fiancee and I plan and book our honeymoon to Jamaica. Then when my wedding was postponed a year due to restrictions related to COVID19, Jennifer made all the necessary adjustments to our plans on our behalf (flights, resort, transportation, travel insurance, etc.). She is an excellent communicator, extremely responsive, and is so knowledgeable. I feel so assured that everything is taken care of under her watch. I would 100% recommend her services to anyone considering using a travel advisor.

Hire an experienced Travel Agent like Jennifer!

Jennifer was awesome to work with! She was a huge help with putting our trip to Europe together and it was a straight forward smooth process. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip due to COVID-19. Jennifer took care of cancelling all of our reservations and ensured we received our money back. She proved the value of why it's important to hire an experienced Travel Agent from a reputable agency. This would have been extremely difficult to have done on our own without her help. I can't say enough about how professional, timely and helpful she was!

Challenge met and exceeded!!

Jennifer took on a difficult challenge for me without hesitation! I had scheduled a mother-daughter trip (without the help of an agent), which I had to cancel last minute to avoid exposure to coronavirus. I got in touch with Jennifer and asked if she could help me plan a new trip for my daughter and me with less than a week until we were set to leave. Jennifer came up with a few amazing options. We ended up choosing to go to Costa Rica and had an phenomenal time from start to finish. The hotels and locations were beautiful, tour guides were kind and fun, and we felt taken care of the whole way through.

Honeymoon of a lifetime!

Jennifer is incredible! From the moment we reached out to inquire about planning our honeymoon to Western Canada, she was responsive, friendly and forthcoming. She continued to be communicative and accommodating throughout the planning process and checked in with us at key times throughout the process to ensure we completed any actions that were required of us. Most important, Jennifer planned us a trip of a lifetime! Everything went smoothly from start to finish and we enjoyed the honeymoon of our lives! We so appreciated Jennifer taking all the stress out of the planning process, making us feel valued and crafting such a phenomenally memorable experience for us.

Exotic natural vacation

My wife and I had dreamed for years of a wonderful vacation to see the natural beauty in the Galapagos Islands. However due to sea sickness issues I could not do a traditional cruise. Jennifer worked with us very closely to craft a land package to see several lovely islands in the Galapagos (San Cristobal, Santa Cruz and Isabela). We stayed at convenient comfortable island hotels and ate at local restaurants. We did have to upgrade our menus with a minor upcharge, in order to improve the variety of food in our restaurants because most local places served similar food with the package we chose, but we worked that out easily enough. We flew between islands on very smooth inter-island flights. Jennifer worked with Latin Trails in Ecuador to provide local transportation and expert tour guides to provide exciting tours of beautiful scenery, animals and foliage. We hiked all over, which we loved. Fabulous trip, returned with several hundred gorgeous pictures!

Made great memories!

Jennifer was really great to work with. I wanted to take my son on a special trip for his high school graduation. I had tried to do the planning myself but time constraints and not being familiar with the area were working against me. Jennifer asked good questions about what I wanted from the vacation. Also gave good feedback to my questions. She designed a trip where we made great memories every day!

A great cruise

Jennifer handled our complex travel arrangements very smoothly. We booked a cruise including people from multiple countries and US cities and she made all the reservations, advised us of visa requirements, and even provided wine in each room. She was always very responsive and knowledgeable and made the cruise preparations easy.

Fun in the Sun

It was great working with Jennifer. She was very detailed and made sure that all aspects of planning our trip were covered. As a mom with two active boys, I wanted to be sure the trip would be fun for the entire family. Jennifer made great suggestions for activities to keep the kids busy. I also really appreciated that she gave us options from which to choose, then tailored the trip to the wants and needs of my family. While she did a wonderful job planning the trip, she made sure to check in with me after the trip to make sure that everything went well and there were no issues.

Sorority Sister Special Trip (30 travelers)

I knew from the beginning that planning a trip for 30+ of my sorority sisters would be a challenge. It wasn't until I began working with Jennifer that I gained confidence in communicating all of the trip details and answering their 100's of questions. Jennifer was patient, thorough and truly a pleasure to work with over the course of our 18months planning period. We trusted Jennifer's expertise from the start. She recommended activities that my group and I hadn't previously thought of, because of her recommendations our trip was even more special. I live in Texas and my sorority sisters are all over the country, Jennifer's response time was as if she lived next door to each of us. There was never a delay and she was very personable. I look forward to working with Jennifer again in the future. Any one who can work with 30+ temperamental women with individualized special requests (or in some cases demands), has definitely won me over. Jennifer, thank you for EVERYTHING!!!!

Beautiful Sunsets

Jennifer was helpful and worked very hard to provide us with a wonderful trip. She had to coordinate a last minute excursion and went to great lengths to make sure all aspects of our travel was covered. There were no hiccups and she emailed us to let us know we should arrive at the airport early. She also reached out after our trip to inquire about our cruise. Thank you, Jennifer!

Magical Italy and Spain

Where can I/we start? Jennifer is a joy to work with, and I am very particular:) She anticipates your every need and knows the in's and out's of her craft and your location. She planned a once in a lifetime trip for our family to Spain and Italy-- 11 people all ages. 4 cities, planes, trains and automobiles. Don't hesitate, hire her.

All Things Europe!

Jennifer worked with us from day one to create a customized itinerary for a three week trip around Europe (Ireland, England, Germany, and Italy) centered around our interests. The trip was planned perfectly, and when we encountered a few problems with the airlines, Jennifer was immediately available (despite a 6+ hour time difference!) to help us out. We can't thank her or recommend her enough! All of our friends have asked us how we were able to fit in so much into a three week window. We give Jennifer all the praise!

Jennifer helped us book one of the most memorable trips of our lives to Costa Rica! Every single detail was perfect - the logistics, the hotels, the excursions, you name it. We'll have a hard time planning another trip without her. Im giving a giant endorsement for anyone looking for a qualified travel expert - hire Jennifer!

We finally got there!

Jennifer was great in hanging in there with us from planning our original trip in April 2020, to postponing that trip due to Covid, and finally to rescheduling for February 2022. It was complicated for us and Jennifer was so helpful in answering our numerous questions and reassuring us through all our concerns about travel during these uncertain times.

Our First Vacation!

We wanted to visit a city that has always been on our bucket list! That's when we got curious about using a travel agent and we were referred to Jennifer Brown. To sum her up in one word she was AMAZING! If anyone is contemplating using a travel agent for their next getaway please use Jennifer! I sent her one email with ideas we had been having & she replied to me the very next day with all of the possibilities & prices which made our choices super easy! Once we gave Jennifer the final okay she booked everything from the flights, hotel, tours, airport pickup and even travel insurance! She did so much for us going above and beyond to make our vacation a breeze! I suffer from anxiety & I am happy to say working with Jennifer I had no worries leading up to our vacation as well as during our trip! We had the BEST time eating, drinking, sight seeing & shopping through NOLA and it's all thanks to Jennifer Brown! We are looking forward to working with her again for our next getaway!

Riding the Rails

This was our first time working with Jennifer, or any travel agent, to plan a trip, and we will definitely call on her again! Jennifer took care of all the details with Amtrak, and was especially helpful in finding us an alternate tour in Glacier National Park when Amtrak overbooked the tour that had been part of our package. She answered all of our questions in a timely manner and is a pleasure to work with.

Great vacation - Jennifer made it happen!

We are very happy that we connected with Jennifer to help us plan and book a two-week trip to the Azores! While we had not worked with her before, she quickly became a partner helping us design a very personalized trip including flights, hotels, car rentals and tours. Her insights and recommendations were great and she helped ensure that we had a smooth and very memorable vacation. In one case, when our international flight was canceled and pushed back a day she jumped in to find us a room. She stayed in touch until she was sure we had successfully checked into the hotel. In addition, she made sure we had the latest apps and tools to track our trip and see related updates. We had an excellent trip, enjoyed the islands and had a chance to see many sights tied to our family history. We believe that our trip would not have been as much fun without Jennifer's help and recommend her to anyone looking for a great travel experience.

Peace of mind and an AMAZING family vacation!!

We had no real idea what we wanted to do, and we just gave Jennifer some ideas of what kind of things we'd like to do. She gave us wonderful suggestions with pricing, answered all of my questions, then gave us even more suggestions when we wanted to "pivot" to a cruise. Jennifer also helped us book an excursion, because the cruise excursion we wanted was sold out. It ended up being MUCH better than the one we booked through the cruise line. We plan to cruise our next vacation through Jennifer for our 25th anniversary!

Made our trip much easier

Jennifer was the first travel agent we've worked with, and working with her made this trip go so much more smoothly. She was friendly, easy to work with, responsive, and clearly cared about us having a good experience. I was intimidated about figuring out all the logistics of taking our family of four on the other side of the world and having someone take care of most of that made the whole experience much less stressful.

A spectacular adventure in Vietnam

Our trip to Vietnam was an incredible adventure. It went so smoothly from start to finish thanks to the help of our travel agent, Jennifer Brown, and the wonderful tour guides she arranged to help us navigate the country. We visited Saigon, Mekong Delta, Hoi An, Ha Long Bay and Hanoi. Our trip was only 8 days and we successfully packed in so many activities! Along with all the sightseeing we still had time to relax at the rooftop bar/pool in Saigon, at the beach in Hoi An and on a cruise in Ha Long Bay. Thanks to our guides, we never had problems with language difference, directions, or money exchange. They took care of the details, made great suggestions and easily adapted the itinerary. We credit Jennifer's expertise and contacts for our spectacular vacation in Vietnam.
