Working with Julie to plan back-to-back spring break trips for our high school seniors was a great experience. With the first, Julie took care of everything - making it a worry free vacation. With the second, although the trip never happened (COVID-19), Julie still took care of everything - managing all of the cancellations and refunds and making an unfortunate situation less stressful.
Amy - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Julie has been planning our trips for over twenty years. Family Caribbean, European, cruises, South American, South Africa and river cruises---Julie has done it all! Even though earthquakes in Chile and New Zealand. However, this form only allows for one destination! Of the more than 50 trips, 20 have been in the Caribbean.
Oldies, but goodies! - Caribbean
Julie helped us plan a fabulous family trip for eight to Costa Rica. She arranged flights, accommodations, excursions - everything. With three families travelling, we were often slow to make decisions, but Julie took it all in stride and made it one of the best trips ever!

Y&Y - North Carolina ~ USA
I started utilizing Julie's services for work-related travel for my boss due to the close proximity of her office to ours (back when paper tickets were necessary). I then started utilizing Julie for personal travel and have referred her to my friends at the office (who also utilize her for work-related travel).<br/><br/>She has provided A#1 service for both work-related travel (last minute hotel changes, finding hotels when it appears that the city is entirely sold out, helping with rebooking flights at the last minute, etc.) and for my personal travel (coordinating a cruise for my entire family including the airfares with 3 adjoining cabins). We have booked a total of 3 cruises (2 Caribbean and 1 Alaskan) through Julie and all 3 have been wonderful and went forward without any glitches! (including having a pack-n-play in our daughter's cabin for our granddaughter). <br/><br/>I have had nothing but good experiences with Julie.<br/><br/>
Janet - Caribbean Sea ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
I have used Julie's travel expertise for several years. She is very knowledgeable and provides great service. She offers excellent destination suggestions with details to help you make informed choices. She has also assisted us when the unexpected interruption occurs while traveling which is a great relief to know she is a phone call away! I highly recommend using her as your travel resource. Our recent experience was a couples retreat to Punta Cana in Mar 2020.

Ms. Keown is heads and shoulders better than a;; travel agents I have worked with during the past several decades. This is so for the following reasons:<br/><br/>1. She provided me and my family with factual information that was essential for us to make our choice as to which cruise to take.<br/><br/>2. She proactively kept us informed of the potential issues that Covid could create that might affect our travel. That information was not in any online site I could find, and was invaluable.<br/><br/>3. She answered our occasional emailed questions promptly and authoritatively. She really knew what she was talking about.<br/>
Frequent traveller. - Caribbean
Julie is very easy to work with. She is very accommodating and helpful with any question I had. She is my go-to gal when my travel plans are challenging. <br/><br/>She gave me different packages with different Hotels, Booked a pkg with Delta to reduce costs, which I would not have considered. Helped us find a Go San Francisco card to our tourism needs (which was very cool, by the way). <br/><br/>Everything she put together worked very well for us.

It was a great trip and we will for sure use Julie and Globus again.

Julie helped us on 2 different cruises this year and did a great job! She helped us get an upgrade on one cruise and helped us with the complicated arrangements on another cruise for our group of 10.

I have been personally using Julie for a decade or more. She primarily works with me regarding a group trip every year and has done a masterful job dealing with a group of lawyers who travel, and they are not easy to satisfy. She does just that however.<br/>I have used her for simple feedback and assistance personally as well. She is easy to reach, talk to, and follows through on everything needed to make things right. <br/>Using her services and those of The World of Travel is a necessity in dealing with the myriad of potential problems that can arise trying to plan your travel needs yourself. This is easier. Much easier.

And we have never had a problem anywhere we have went.
