We have been working with and planning trips with Missy for many years. We have traveled around the world and she has been a big part of our experiences. She is thorough and punctual in the preparation and planning of our vacations. Missy is very professional and always has our best interest in mind when making decisions concerning us. .
Joe - Caribbean Sea ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Missy provided outstanding service in assisting us with our vacation planning. She was methodical and patient, working on general ideas first, then focusing on hotels, travel modes (trains, flights, etc.), and finally, specific activities which required advance reservations. She was able to offer alternative ideas through her vast experience of travel that were amazing additions to our trip. And by the time our planning was complete, she packaged everything in a neat, concise travel packet with everything documented in a day by day itinerary. And although we never needed to use them, we were given emergency contacts and numbers in the event of problems on our trip. Thank you Missy!!!
Happy Campers - Europe
Missy has gone over and beyond helping us with our travel plans. We've been working with her for five years and she has been most helpful! At some point, there was an issue with booking a particular hotel and she corrected this by upgrading us to a 4 star hotel! We were so grateful!
Ted and Shari - South Pacific
Missy is helpful and knowledgeable. She is easy to work with. Whenever I have questions, she always has good recommendations.
LiMN - Greece ~ Europe
Missy did an amazing job setting us up for a dream vacation! This was a first time to visit Europe for my husband and I and the details were well taken care so that our vacation was just perfect. We can't wait to go back!
Lburg - Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Missy, is a very special person. She always takes great care to get us exactly<br/>what we area looking for in a vacation experience. Always looking for the<br/>best deals and seeing to it that we will be happy in the selections she<br/>makes regarding vacation locations and accommodations. I would<br/>recommend Missy to any of my friends who area looking for vacation<br/>advise. Dianne Whiting
DJ - Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
Our experience was terrific. We came to Missy with the plan of getting married on a beach in the Caribbean. Missy guided us through many different options to help us find the right one for us. <br/>Missy not only was in constant contact with us, but also with our wedding planner at the resort to ensure that everything went according to plan. What could have been a very difficult and stressful process was made very simple. Her recommendation was great. We really enjoyed our resort, it was perfect for our group. <br/>Missy was on top of every detail and prompt with responses to any questions we had or problems that came up. <br/>Shortly before we left Missy sent us a package with travel checklists, some hints for do's and don'ts in the Dominican as well other relevant information about our destination. She even sent us luggage tags with our information already on them. <br/>Missy provided us with everything we expected and more. We will only use Missy for our travel needs from this point forward.
Sean - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Missy planned a superb trip for us, which unfortunately we were unable to take due to illness. So my review is primarily about the great job she did securing complete refunds from the cruise line and insurance company, including all airfare and deposits. I filled out a couple of forms and she took it from there. <br/>If every trip went off without a hitch, we wouldn't always need a great travel agent. But they don't, and we do. And Missy is a great travel agent.
Tom - Europe
Missy is gracious and patient in answering our travel questions and interested in feedback so she can continue to build her knowledge in serving clients to come.
Larry - Hawaii Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Missy was amazing! She arranged a great vacation for us at a good price. Our only criteria were "an all-inclusive someplace warm".<br/><br/>Unfortunately one day into our trip, we experienced a medical emergency and had to fly home. This is where Missy truly shined! She was able to get our return tickets transferred to a flight home that afternoon, and not only that, was able to get us a very generous voucher for a redo on the trip.<br/><br/>After our experience, it's safe to say we will be using Missy for all future vacations, and recommending her to anyone we know who will be traveling.
Tony - Cozumel ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy has been an excellent travel agent for many years. She has planned many wonderful trips for our family of 12. She knows what types of experiences our family enjoys and has always given us excellent choices. She goes over and beyond to plan memorable trips. We could not find a more helpful or pleasant agent .<br/><br/> The Andrews Family<br/><br/>
Family of Tweleve - Hawaii Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
We always use Missy Skoog as our travel agent because she is very knowledgeable and has been in the business a long time. She returns our calls or emails quickly and always has answers. We have been usingg her for 25 years. Missy was extremely helpful this last trip in March for my daughter Senior Spring break when the Coronavirus increased and media was telling us to get home. We had a group of 31 people/multiple families and it was so nice to be able to just call her to get an update and everyone was able to enjoy the remaining days knowing we were fine and had a scheduled flight. I would never travel without her expertise and here attention to details.
Larysa - Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Missy is professional, friendly and always a big help setting up our family vacations.
Delta - Mexico ~ Mexico
My husband and I worked with Missy to plan a special trip with many of our friends and family to Secrets Silversands in Riviera Maya, Mexico in February. It was a one year anniversary, vow renewal, and honeymoon all wrapped up into one amazing vacation! We absolutely loved working with Missy! From the first contact, every meeting, e-mail, and phone call was received with such enthusiasm. We could tell she wanted to make this a very memorable experience with as little work for us as possible. Mission accomplished! We had a total of 20 people join us on our vacation over the course of the week and for our vow renewal on Valentine’s Day. We did not have to do one thing in planning for our guests. Missy took care of everything! Not to mention how she helped us narrow down our choices of resorts. Missy has so much experience in traveling, that she knew exactly what we would like after asking just a few questions. She was spot on! In working with Missy we had pretty high expectations of
The Palmer's - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Working with Missy is a pleasure every time. This is the third time we have booked a vacation through Missy. I find it beneficial to use a travel agent when traveling to a foreign country, because it makes things a lot easier when you get there in terms of finding your transportation from the airport to the hotel, then departing, etc. We had a bad experience in Cabo with the hotel (which had nothing to do with Missy) and she made it right for us. I like working with Missy because she is prompt, friendly and really knowledgable. I have thrown a lot of scenarios out at Missy when planning a vacation and she never minds giving us as much info as we need to make us feel comfortable planning our vacation.
Jillian - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
We planned travel after the COVID-19 kit. Missy was incredibly helpful in rebooking and rescheduling flights and making sure we were up-to-date on all of the important information the government was saying about travel.

Missy was great to work with, we would give her our must haves and I felt she delivered each time!
Heidi - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Missy was extremely helpful. I gave her our top 3 choices of places to visit and she came back with great options and advice since it was for our anniversary trip that I hadn't even thought of (adults only, more relaxing resorts).
Mothersmucker - Negril ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
This was our first time using a travel agent, and we are glad we did! Missy was easy to work with, listened to our vision for our trip and planned accordingly. We went to Italy and Greece for our honeymoon, and Missy had great suggestions since she has traveled there before. We were able to visit some amazing historical places, as well as spend good time on other adventures (wine country, cooking lessons, swimming in the Mediterranean Sea), all that Missy had set up for us.
Katie - Greece ~ Europe
I worked with Missy via Email with two other people and I must say that the experience was phenomenal. She was responsive and receptive to any and all questions. She also anticipated every possible need without any prompting.
The Bad One - Sydney ~ Australia ~ Australia & New Zealand
What an amazing trip. My 18 year old nephew, my 12 year old niece and I spent 12 days in Italy. I had never gone on a guided tour, but Missy found the perfect one for the perfect vacation. Her insight and patience with my schedule made the trip easy and relaxing. I’m working with Missy again to plan our girls trip to Australia. I’d recommend Missy again and again.
Katrina - Italy ~ Europe
We loved our trip to Spain! Thanks to Missy Skoog for her expertise and knowledge of the possible tours for us. She was always available to answer our many questions and she expertly made our flight and tour arrangements. Trafalgar tours is a great company, well organized, and the sites were very educational and interesting. The tour director and bus driver were professional and fun. We always felt safe and well taken care of. The trip was fantastic - awesome! I highly recommend Missy Skoog with Travel Leaders to book your next adventure. You will not be disappointed!

Great experience, as always. Worked with Missy a number of times and will continue to work with her on future travels. Highly recommend.
Nicole - Playa Mujeres ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy is and has been nothing but a pleasure to work with. She is kind and patient and works tirelessly to get us the best arrangements based on our budget and unique family's needs. She has provided crucial insight and advice on multiple worldwide trips that my family and I have taken over the last several years. Her recommendations are always spot on and her extensive travel experience has saved us from the many pitfalls that surely would have occurred had we tried to navigate these countries on our own. On the rare occasion that we have had a glitch in our plans, a quick call to Missy is all it takes to get us back on track and moving. I would never consider traveling far or near without a call to Missy the first step in our plans.
Petmommy4 - Italy ~ Europe
This trip took 9 months to plan with the 12 friends but Missy was always patient, well knowledge, responded in a timely manner to questions & comments. We have used Missy on previous trips small and large and her customer service just keeps on getting better. She always finds a great spot within our price range, and most important our vacations never have any issues, just lots of FUN.
Margaritas - Playa Del Carmen ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Wonderful experience! Very helpful! Missy found an absolutely amazing destination for my daughter and I.
Micah - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We have worked with Missy several times and will keep going back to her. She listens and then makes suggestions that fit what we are wanting. Missy is very friendly and has a great sense of camaraderie. We will always plan with Missy.<br/><br/>Our last trip was to Norway. It was everything we wanted and more.<br/>She set us up: Fly to Oslo, train to Bergen, Heurtegruten to Kirkennes, fly back to Oslo and then home. Two amazing weeks learning about the land of my ancestors.
Norwegian - Norway ~ Europe
I have been working with Missy Skoog for many years. She is always pleasant to deal with and very efficient when making our bookings. She is always available by phone, email or in person. I am currently working on 2 cruise bookings with fairly large groups of people with Missy and she has helped with everything from booking the cruise, selecting cabins, making dinner reservations and getting friend referrals set up.<br/><br/>Our group primarily uses Missy for cruise travels but have also had her investigate all inclusive resorts in the Caribbean and she provided a wealth of knowledge and first hand experiences with many of the resorts we were looking at.<br/><br/>I look forward to continuing my relationship with Missy and booking MANY more vacations with her. I HIGHLY recommend Missy - she is a GREAT travel agent.
Coon Rapids Cruiser - Caribbean
Missy never fails! We have booked several trips with Missy over the years and we have always been thrilled with the results.
Dan - Negril ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
We visited with Missy with very broad parameters. We wanted to get married in the Caribbean somewhere and we had a budget we wanted to stay within. She was very helpful in showing us multiple options that would work for us and helped us narrow them to fit our exact needs. We settled on Now Onyx Resort in Punta Cana. <br/>Missy worked so well with our guests and helped coordinate everything, which was definitely great considering we were already planning the wedding itself. She also helped us a lot with getting into contact with the correct people to make our arrangements. We absolutely loved our venue and everything went off perfectly. I would highly recommend using Missy for any of your travel needs!
Sean - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean

We appreciate all of her time and thoughtfulness through this process... we book through Missy for every vaca - <br/><br/>THANK YOU MISSY!
Cortney - Florida ~ USA
Missy has been amazing since the first time we used her services! She went above and beyond to help us plan the most amazing wedding trip ever! We have continued to work with her and send all our friends and family to her because she always makes sure you're taken care of. <br/><br/>On our first vacation, we encountered an issue with our room reservation. I got Missy on the phone and explained the issue. She said "Don't worry about it. Go have fun and I'll take care of it." Sure enough, 2 hours later, a resort employee found us and told us everything was taken care of! Amazing!<br/><br/>Not only that, but working with her on picking this resort proved to be way worth it! She helped us narrow down our options and we ultimately decided on Secrets Silversands. She told us that she loved these resorts and that we were picking a great one, and boy was she right! We have continued to go back to Secrets because they are so wonderful! <br/><br/>Missy really knows her stuff!
Mrs. Palmer - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
She was so great!! We had no worries and she had everything in order for us!!

AnnieB - Alaska ~ USA
Living in Minnesota by the time January comes we are in need of some Vitamin D and Sunshine, For 19 years Missy has been providing us wonderful adventures in the Sun. She has put us on Cruise ships, sent us to Ixtapa, Cozumel, Cancun, Playa, Riviera Maya, Cabo San Lucas and Punta Cana.<br/><br/>Each destination has been wonderful, this year we went to the Riu Palace Baja California and did several Whale Watching trips and had an amazing time. <br/><br/>Missy is always there for us if we need her and she makes sure that we know everything about where we are going and what we will need.<br/><br/>She has made our Winter getaways the best they could be and she is always willing to find us a new resort with great amenities and we have always had wonderful experiences. We travel with anywhere from 8 to 14 people and our love for Cabo San Lucas has grown so much, this was our 4th time there. Mexico is a beautiful country and we are blessed to be able to go there and enjoy all their beauty and culture!
Cindi - Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Missy stepped in and helped us out after we had some difficulties getting info/action with another travel agent. Our time frame to plan/book a 16 day trip to Italy was really short. Her recommendations for tours and hotels were fantastic. My college aged kids and I had a very stress-free trip. Missy worked hard to make that happen - will definitely use her again. She's a true professional, great attention to all the details, she provided excellent communication re: our trip and gave us options. It was a pleasant experience working with her!
Travel loving family - Italy ~ Europe
From purchasing hotel, flight, and transfer the experience has been smooth for a group of 20 family members. We even got upgraded to the Barcelo Maya Palace because there were not enough room at the Barcelo Maya Beach. I have worked with Missy Skoog since our first Southern Caribbean cruise back in 2010.

I have worked exclusively with Missy for the past five years, which totals ten different vacations in Mexico. Missy has handled everything flawlessly and we have not once had any problems. She does well understanding my questions and idiosyncrasies with the use of private transfer and she comes thru for me every time I find some small issue to cloud up the process. I highly recommend using Missy as a travel agent as she is excellent at handling all phases of travel. When a trip/vacation is planned well, no problems arise. Thanks to Missy.

Flawless. Missy took very good care of us. Family vacation for six of us, went off without any mishaps. From flights from two different cities, the private transfers, hotel, etc. there were no problems. I highly recommend Missy for anyone planning a vacation. Couldn't ask for more.

Missy has assisted in planning multiple vacations for myself and many of my family members over the years. She has never let us down!! She is always available to answer our questions and give us advice when we need it. She is honest and trustworthy and I can't imagine having anyone else help us plan our vacations. I truly value and appreciate her advice.
The cruisers - Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Missy was very accommodating in finding two tours for us in Toyko to experience before our Trafalgar tour began. She arranged for flights and hotel for one day early. The Amerian Airlines flights from/to LA were excellent and comfortable. We loved and thoroughly enjoyed the two-week vacation of Japan. Beautiful!
Glenda - Japan ~ East and Southeast Asia
IT WAS FANTASTIC
Rudy - Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
We had never been on a cruise before so we thought it best to use a travel agent. My brother recommended Travel Leaders and we contacted Missy. She was so helpful and knowledgeable. She answered all our questions, provided valuable advice and many tips which made our first cruise very enjoyable and worry-free. Cruising through Glacier Bay was breathtaking. Upon our return from Alaska we contacted Missy and booked a future cruise to Hawaii. She got us a great deal with lots of extras. She always responds promptly. She will be our travel agent for life.
Annette - Alaska ~ USA
Our Disney World trip was amazing due to the planning and expertise of Missy. Without her, I would have spent hours and hours scouring the internet for tips and tricks. With her help, I didn't have to do that. She thought of every last detail. From assisting in deciding where to stay (using our budget), Missy also booked our Fastpasses which were perfect for our 5 year old son and made our restaurant reservations (which allowed my husband and I to relax for a little bit, while also thinking about the needs of our son).
Theresa - Orlando ~ Florida ~ USA
Very efficient and sraight forward. Also very patient (: She knows her stuff and we will use her again!
timk - Denver ~ Colorado ~ USA
Missy has done a great job for us over the last 5+ years. This latest trip to Dominican Republic was handled perfect. Upgraded room and complete instructions from her on all transport & details.
Chuck - Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
We were very happy with the service that Missy provided. The tours, the hotels and the organization of all the details was really helpful. We were particularly happy with the transfers that she suggested. Very professional and timely. We will definitely use her services again.
Deb - London ~ England ~ Europe
Two weeks before I left, EZ Air changed my return flight. In the midst of the crisis in Maui and rescheduling, Missy was able to get my return flight changed back to the original flight.
Jackie - United Kingdom ~ Europe
We have used Missy for our travel adventures for quite a few years now. We also have friends and other family members who use Missy. Always easy to work with. Gets back to us back to us quickly whenever questions arise.
Don't have one - Europe
Missy provided us with excellent service. Not only did she book our cruise, but also helped with obtaining a refund on a previously canceled vacation. Thanks to her exceptional knowledge of travel, awesome communication skills and attention to detail we had a great trip. We cannot wait to work with Missy again!
Kathy - Budapest ~ Hungary ~ Europe
Missy has coordinated two Viking cruises for me. She is thorough and attentive to detail. She responds promptly to questions, even when I was at the airport last year with a question about my flight. I enjoy working with her all the way from deciding on a trip to conclusion.

Anderson - Scotland ~ Europe
Knowledgeable, helpful, available.
Anne - Quebec ~ Quebec ~ Canada
This is the forth time working with Missy and she never disappoints. From the first moment I contact her until the day our trip begins, she is there for us. She is available to answer any of my questions, even the 'silly' ones. Covid added an extra layer to our last trip, traveling over seas. A few days before leaving, it appears some of the rules changed in our ports. Missy let us know and made recommendations to help ensure we weren't surprised by any glitches. Her expertise, followup and professionalism is outstanding!
Deb - Mediterranean Sea ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
On pretty short notice, my husband and I asked Missy to suggest upscale adults-only all-inclusive resorts in the Cancun area. Missy provided the details for five resorts within a day of our request. Once our decision was made, Missy provided all the documents and details very promptly. Because of Covid, she suggested Delta (center seat empty), and made us aware of required Covid testing before reentering the US (provided at our resort, with results within 4 hours). We stayed at the Iberostar Grand Paraiso, and the property and staff were beyond amazing. We have used Missy’s services before, and she has not disappointed. Her expertise and attention to detail make her stand out as a travel professional.
Grandma Jean - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy was so helpful from the start! Beautiful resort and location. Weather was perfect! While we were in Mexico, the Covid pandemic and social distancing started back home. Missy reassured us that we will be fine getting home and was in touch with our crew giving updates everyday. While we were aware of everything and uncertainty at home, we were still able to enjoy our vacation knowing Missy was taking care of everything and would notify us of any changes.
Joni - Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Missy was very easy to work with. She helped us work through the options for our trip and then presented us with two excellent itineraries. Up to the date of our trip, and during our trip, she was available and responsive to our questions, comments, etc.
Minneapolis - Italy ~ Europe
Missy has always done a fantastic job helping our family with travel.
Chuck - Mexico
Missy has been our travel agent for many years and has always come through for us. She always finds us the best prices, responds to us very quickly, and we are very satisfied with her. We tend to ask a lot of questions and she always has the answers and is very patient. We have recommended her to many friends and they have all told us how thankful they are for her.<br/><br/>
Terry - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We stayed at at the Barcelo Maya Riviera in Riviera Maya. Our trip was top notch. We loved the Adults Only hotel at the resort. Everything about the resort was wonderful. We especially appreciated the cleanliness of the rooms and the whole resort, the patio hot tub overlooking the ocean, and the amazing food all week. Also, the ocean was so beautiful with white sand. Pools and bars were excellent. The service all week, wherever we went, was top notch. There was lots to do at the resort from shows, to dance club, to excellent restaurants and buffets, to volleyball, to live music, and of course the beautiful ocean and lots of pools and bars. We would definitely go back here and would use Missy Skoog for all future travel plans. She got the best possible price for us at an excellent resort. She went above and beyond to help our son change his flight last minute (at no extra cost) due to a college exam. She did this by working with Delta on a Saturday morning for 45 minutes +,

Missy did a great job of helping us book our River Cruise on Scenic on the Danube. She is super responsive and has great suggestions! I am already having her help me plan the next vacation!!
WendyD - Danube | On the River | At Sea
Beautiful resort, great food, the staff was amazing, a special shout out to Mimo and Sebastian on the entertainment crew for showing us a great time. Thank you, Missy, for helping us find the perfect resort for us.
Missy Skoog - Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Missy suggested Scenic for our very first river cruise and we couldn't be more happy with her recommendation. We've worked with Missy many times in the past and she's gotten to know what we like. The Scenic ship was very nice and updated and the staff were amazing! The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We started and ended our cruise in Amsterdam and were able to see the beautiful tulips at Keukenhof Gardens, highly recommend! The timing couldn't have been better! We can't wait to start planning our next river cruise with Missy, I'm sure she'll have some great suggestions again!
Jayne - Amsterdam | Netherlands | Europe
Trip down under was amazing. The tours were spectacular, guides were very personable and knowledgeable! The locations we went to were all wonderful. Missy’s planning and set up of flights, cars transportations, hotels, and tours were second to none. Had no trouble with anything during the trip.
Blake & Källän - Australia & New Zealand
Our trip was fantastic! Everything about the resort was amazing. The food, the scenery, the activities. So relaxing and Missy made it easy! It was so nice being able to tell her what we wanted and she did the rest!

Missy was a top-notch communicator and connoisseur all things Mexico!

We stayed at the Riu Palace Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic and Punta Cana did not disappoint! Missy recommended this destination to us and I can see why. It is a beautiful place with lots of sunshine, beautiful blue water and the softest sand!
Missy Skoog - Dominican Republic | Caribbean
I had been researching the South Pacific for about 3 1/2 yrs prior to contacting Missy. I was pretty set in the islands I wanted to see & things I wanted to do but I didn't feel at all comfortable with the details of planning a trip like this for my sister & me with it involving multiple weeks, many flights & crossing the International Date Line. That meant I was a little stubborn in what I wanted & Missy came through with flying colors & gave us the trip of a lifetime. We had wanted to go to Fiji,The Cook Islands & French Polynesia & were thinking maybe allowing 5 weeks. It ended up being 6 weeks but so glad we did. Missy worked back & forth with a few different vendors to come up with a 5th itinerary that we finally agreed on. There was only 1 accommodation we were absolutely set on in Aitutaki that we couldn't get through the vendors because it was very basic & remote so Missy got us the flights to & from Rarotonga to Aitutaki & we contacted the place ourself
to book that accommoda
Missy - South Pacific
This is our second time booking with Missy and things went just as smoothly as the first time! Our first trip was a destination wedding and if you're thinking of doing that using Missy is a.must. The stress it takes off of the planning is immense! Additionally, having a travel advocate on your side the whole way is priceless. Getting ready to book a third trip for next year!
Rgleddy24 - Negril | Jamaica | Caribbean
My husband and I were not totally sure where we wanted to go but knew we wanted someplace warm and a beach. Missy helped me sort through several options and even had to change the dates for me a few times. She is so easy to work with and would always respond promptly with any changes I made when searching. She booked our whole trip to Cabo, including flight so we didn't have to worry about a thing! We stayed at the Playa Grande Resort which has a beautiful beach front on one side and the the Marina full of restaurants and fun places to go, on the other. The resort is very clean, gorgeously landscaped, has multiple pools and bars, and the people are super friendly! We never had a bad meal either! Only problem was we should have stayed an extra week! :)

Missy has scheduled many our trips to Maui which we go to every January. She does a great job handling all of our arrangements. We stay at Kaanapali Shores in Maui every year. It is very comfortable, is right on the ocean and has great whale watching. Each year it seems as though we say this was our best trip but I think this year was even better. We love Maui and can't wait to have Missy start soon on our 2026 Maui vacation. We are probably biased but feel Maui is the best of the Hawaiian islands. Aloha!

We have used Missy as our travel agent for years because she takes the time to listen! Missy knows what we love to do on vacation, our favorite activities, and suggests trips with the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. We could figure out all the pieces of planning ourselves but Missy makes traveling so easy! From our flights to transport to our destination and finding the perfect place for our budget and interests, and assisting with booking excursions Missy hasn’t failed yet! Her experience with travel is invaluable in making travel decisions easy and worry free!
We recommend Missy to our friends and family when they are looking for a travel agent!

Everything was great
Bathorn - Puerto Rico | USA
Missy put together an entire month of travel experiences, accommodations and transportation modes. Somehow she managed to make it all clear, enjoyable and workable.
Travel Buddy - Tasmania | Australia | Australia & New Zealand
Missy is a great agent. She returns texts, emails, phone calls quickly. She scheduled a 12 day Delta Vacation to Hawaii. She stayed within the dollar amounts I asked for. We did not go big with Resort accommodations, but we were very pleased with both resorts- Royal Kona Resort-Hawaii and Sheraton Kauai Resort-Kauai. Big beautiful rooms over looking ocean in both. Perhaps a bit dated showers in both (shower in tub). Great included breakfast at Royal Kona overlooking waves crashing the rocks below.
Big Island highlights- Volcanoes National Park is a must. Stayed at Volcanic Inn (modest B&B) so we could get early start in park-smart. Hiked Crater trail across lava field, Devastation Field, Lava Tube. Drove Chain of Craters Road to beach and sea arch.
Pololu Valley Hike
Kauai- the Sheraton Kauai was on the south coast Poipu. Great location-walking distance to restaurants and shops yet away from the traffic of the east coast - Wailua.
Highlights- Helicopter ride over island (half price w
MISSY SKOOG - Hawaii | USA
We called with a short window of two days to plan a dream trip to Hawaii. Missy was responsive and thorough! She gave us multiple options and quickly found answers for all my questions. Our trip was amazing and went off without any problems!
Missyrocks1 - Hawaii | USA
My husband and I traveled to Riu Palace Riviera Maya with 3 children (ages 9, 13, and 16). It was important to us to stay in a place that guaranteed adjoining rooms. We read so many bad reviews of resorts where families asked for adjoining rooms and didn't get them. We felt much more comfortable working with a travel agent to make sure our family's needs were met. We loved our resort and had clean and spacious adjoining rooms.
Toni - Riviera Maya | Quintana Roo | Mexico
I love the fact that Missy is so experienced in traveling and can always help with questions.
Travel bug - Croatia ~ Europe

Len - Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
Extremely pleasant and eager to assist.

Missy was patient while my husband and I figured out our travel plans. She is knowledgeable about European river cruises and gave recommendations that really helped with our decision. She also helped us get a good room on our Viking river cruise boat and we loved it!

Missy was great to work with. She listened and adjusted the trip to what we wanted.
Dave/Barb - Italy ~ Europe
Missy does a great job of remembering all the details like transportation to and from and in between. She also listens to the experience you want and provides recommendations on hotel accommodations that meet your experience in price and location of hotel. Lastly her recommendations on experiences and restaurants were super helpful to round out the trip.
Lynn - Germany ~ Europe
Always returns queries promptly. Trip. Planning was excellent.
Phil and Kathi - Scandinavia ~ Europe
Working with Missy is always great! We tell her where we want to travel, our timing and a general itinerary and she takes it from there. On our last adventure, we went on a cruise and wanted to spend some extra time in Athens before embarking on our ship and more time in Venice as we disembarked. Missy sent us options for not only hotels in Athens and Venice but also transportation and tour options in both of these cities. We told her our choices and she booked them for us. Since payment wasn't due at the time of our bookings, Missy sent us reminders on when payments were due. I never worried we'd miss a payment deadline and lose the reservation. I can't understand why anyone would book any trip without using Missy! Her services are unbeatable!
Travel Adventurers - Athens ~ Greece ~ Europe
Missy is always very helpful with ideas and any questions we have. She very knowledgeable with the travel programs and helps us select the best one for us.
Sharon - Ireland ~ Europe
Set up trip for us for Insight Vacations
Laurie Anderson - Denmark ~ Europe
She has done a wonderful job helping us plan our trips! Last year in 2023 we went on a trip to France and she did an excellent job setting up everything. She set up transfers from airport to hotel, train tickets all of our hotel reservations and all the attractions we went too. This year we we went on a trip with Insight Vacations and the trip was fabulous and she did a wonderful job setting it all up!
Laurie Anderson - Denmark ~ Europe
Missy was absolutely wonderful to work with. She answered our many questions in a timely fashion and was extremely knowledgeable! She probably saved the day when she realized the van at the conclusion of the cruise was not going to be big enough to take us to the airport. She caught this error. We are so grateful to Missy for her help in the planning and execution of this trip. We couldn't have done it without her!!
Shelley - Alaska ~ USA
I have worked with MIssy a long time and she is the best travel agent we have worked with. She is dedicated, hard working, finds the best cruises and because of her, we always have the stateroom of our choice.
CandC - Iceland ~ Europe
Missy was recommended to us by a family member so even though we live in NM I wanted to go with someone that we could trust. Within the first few emails I was blown away. So hands on with questions and educating us on what its like to to travel to Europe. My husband and I didn't know where to even start but Missy gave us the recommendations and tools we needed to make a great trip. We love all the hotels we stayed in and she sent us updates along the way. She was there for any changes or questions I had, I am very appreciative that she was so flexible when I need to change a hotel last minute. We went to Ireland and Norway, we enjoyed Ireland but we highly recommend going to Norway, it isn't talked about enough in my opinion. We will definitely be going back someday.
Bri - Norway ~ Europe
Missy provided the information and shared her knowledge about river cruises. She answers our numerous questions about Avalon Waterways and cruising on the Danube. She set up flights and relayed our special requests on to Avalon. We will use Missy when planning our next trip.
Newbies - Europe
Our experience with Missy was excellent, very knowledgeable and professional. She got us ready for our trip to Jamaica.
James M - Montego Bay ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
I have worked with Missy twice now on what I considered to be "major" vacations, the planning of which I wanted someone with much more experience than I. She listens to what I wanted out of these trips and then puts her expertise to work to make a workable plan. And then the plan just works! Flawlessly! Along the way, she listens to and quickly responds to questions and makes adjustments that make each of the trips unique to you and not just a cookie cutter experience. She acts as my advocate if I have a particular item I need in my itinerary. I am thankful for Missy and hope to use her experience again in the future!
Murrah - Alaska ~ USA
She was excellent in providing the information we needed throughout the planning and implementing our tour.
Pat - United Kingdom ~ Europe
I've used Missy in the past so when planning this trip to Honolulu, I did not hesitate to reach out to her again for her expertise. The details can be overwhelming and Missy really helped narrow things down so we could make the decision to stay at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, which is a great location! We knew exactly what to expect with this large resort given Missy was very communicative with all of the details and information we needed to know. I highly recommend using Missy for your travel needs, especially if you are uncertain on how to navigate all of the nuances. She is very detailed and responsive!
Christine - Honolulu, Oahu ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Missy was very easy to work with when scheduling our vacation. She gave us many options to choose from using various price ranges and hotels. Very receptive to our wants and needs. You will not go wrong working with Missy.
PJ - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy was the best at helping me find the resort/hotel that we liked and fit our budget, she answered all the questions I had, we booked tours with her, and she booked us the best flights, we could not have done it better. I'm so glad she was able to help us celebrate my husband's birthday exactly the way he deserves.
Jamie - Greece ~ Europe
Missy set my husband and I up with the trip of a lifetime - a 12-night Mediterranean cruise. We cruised on Celebrity's newest ship the Ascent, leaving out of Barcelona, Spain. We hit one port in France, three ports in Italy, one port in Turkey and 4 ports in Greece. All the destinations were lovely, but the stops in Greece - Phenomenal! When I told Missy what I wanted in a vacation, she suggested Celebrity and, as always, she was completely right. Everything was fantastic - from the ship, to the captain, crew, meals, entertainment, state room and excursions. There was one stop in Greece, where all the excursions had been booked already, so Missy stepped in and I was able to book an excursion through Travel Leaders. This was by far the best trip my husband and I have ever taken and we could not have done it without Missy. Thanks so much Missy. You're the BEST!!!
Sue P - Mediterranean ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Missy is delightful to work with. She is efficient and on-task always. She starts each trip planning process with her going over what she thinks it important; she sends out maps and sample itineraries, then lets us figure out the rest. She has down complete tours for us and has down a portion or segment of a trip allowing me to plan and organize the rest. She also taps into her international network if she believes an international insight or connections will help make our trip more meaningful. When we experienced no-show tour people, or tour accidents (with no fault to her at all), she helped us try to get resolution or compensation after we returned to the states. Her upbeat attitude is great. She is our go-to resource for any international travel we plan!
Curt - Italy ~ Europe
I wanted to do a group tour to Italy but was overwhelmed with where to start, which company to use, and which tour to choose. Missy took the time to compare step by step two similar tours with two different companies with me. This made my decision easy. Throughout the whole planning and preparing process she was right on top of changes and answering all of my questions.
JBix - Italy ~ Europe
Missy communicates back in a timely matter. She is efficient and kind. Highly recommend!
Kelsey - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy was always very responsive and very understanding of our lack of commitment to an itinerary in the early stages of our planning. She offered great options for the trip items that were important to us.
Hannah - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Missy was great to work with! She responds quickly with suggestions/ideas and quotes for your trip and is also happy to answer questions. I really enjoyed working with her.
mom of 3 - Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Working with Missy was great as she gave us many options to fit our budget. The resort we chose was nice but not the best we've been to. The pools were great as there were many options (4). Rooms definitely needed updates as the outlets rarely worked and wifi was very spotty around the resort. The food was to be expected in an all-inclusive but the service was great and workers very friendly. Beautiful sandy beach and lots of shopping close by.
Mimi7 - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We have worked with Missy for 4 trips now, each trip has been wonderful with no issues. During our 2020 spring break Missy kept us updated with closures and our plans back to the US. She reassured us she had it under control, which she did.
Heidi - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy is the best. She was able to give us options and help us choose the best location based on our budget and must haves.
M.McShane - Maldives ~ Central Asia
Missy was awesome to work with! She listened to our wishes, gave us several options and was very quick to respond to any questions we had. We have 3 teenage boys and Missy steered us to a resort that was perfect for our family!
Maisie - Punta Cana ~ Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Missy has been a pleasure to work with for the past 15+ years. She is extremely knowledgeable and responsive. She has helped us book many trips and we couldn’t have had the great experiences we have had without her assistance. Missy helped set us up with great excursions, off-shore fishing and a rain forest tour with river tubing. We saw many exotic animals and had an amazing experience.
Crotteau - Costa Rica ~ Central America
Missy was extremely helpful every step of the way. She spent a great deal of time working with us from deciding where to go to questions along the way. We would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!

Booked our trip for exactly what we wanted.
Cori - Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
Missy always, always steers us in the right direction for our vacations. She knows exactly what we're looking for on our trips and delivers each and every time.

My wife and I had the best experience working with Missy, she made everything so easy. Missy's communication was perfect, very professional and her knowledge in locations to visit was impressive. Because of her recommendation we visited one of the best resorts I've stayed at in Mexico. The resort was beautiful, food was incredible, and the hospitality was impeccable. I highly recommend working with Missy when planning your next trip.

Dawn - Cozumel ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
I came to Missy for help with airline tickets for a family vacation to Costa Rica. She asked if we might consider a trip to an all inclusive in Cancun. Best decision I ever made. <br/><br/>We were looking for a family trip for 18, three generations, grandma and grandpa, 7 adult children and 9 grandchildren ages 3-13.<br/><br/>We were traveling from 2 cities so flights and transports needed to be coordinated. We had a special needs (autism) grandson so needed some accommodations re rooms and meals. <br/><br/>Missy listened to questions and concerns from all 5 families, suggested options, and then turned it all into the most amazing vacation for everyone.<br/><br/>The hotel and grounds were amazing. Food was outstanding, service incredible. There were pools and oceans, and water parks and peacocks. There were family activities everyday. We had access to amenities and restaurants at 4 additional resorts with shuttle service available if desired. <br/><br/>Missy gets a 10 from all 18 of us-180 on a scale of
Grandma - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy put together our dream honeymoon in Europe. We had very little time to plan because of so many wedding details, and she put everything we were hoping for together in an amazing trip. It was even better than we thought it would be.
NMC - Europe
Missy helped us make booking this vacation easy!
Tom - Napa Valley ~ California ~ USA
Four girlfriends, three who had never been on a cruise, tapped Missy to help us put a trip to Alaska together. We had hundreds of questions and we are so glad she put it all together for us! She even salvaged the trip for one of our members when one of the others had to drop out! She gave us solid recommendations from start to finish!
Deb - Denali National Park ~ Alaska ~ USA
Never traveling in Italy I was not confident in myself for booking hotels, the right tours, train ticket and basic travel throughout Italy. I found Missy and she created my entire trip for 26 days streamline . She sent me a packet with day to day travel and made my trip stress free because I knew where I was going and how, and everything met my budget. I would highly recommend her for foreign travel and abroad !
Mike - Italy ~ Europe
Missy was excellent!
Clara M - Alaska ~ USA
Missy Skoog did an excellent job!
Andrea - Italy ~ Europe
I have had the pleasure of working with Missy on two different trips. So lucky to have found her! One trip to Europe and just recently to Hawaii. She was instrumental in helping to find the perfect hotels and/or resorts, tour recommendations, transportation and listened to me on preferences. She was always willing to tweak the plan and help make it better than I could have planned on my own. And planning is normally what I do : )<br/>Looking forward to working with Missy again, soon!
ROKRUH - Europe
Missy did a great job or coordinating our family trip of 12 to the Riviera Maya.
Sherrie - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We used Missy's services because we were combining a cruise with an extension to Rome and needed some help finding tours, a hotel and transfers. Missy worked with us and gave us great ideas. We loved our hotel, the transfers went perfectly, and the tours were first rate! We would definitely recommend her and would use her services again.
Deb - Rome ~ Italy ~ Europe
She was always efficient at getting back to me in a timely manner and knew the answer to all my questions.
Kelsey - Cabo San Lucas ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
We had booked a group tour to Europe which included the Passion Play in Oberammergau. Missy helped us book hotels to extend our vacation for 10 days. When the pandemic hit, and travel to Europe became impossible, we were quite concerned because we had booked our hotels at the non-refundable rates. Missy worked endlessly for us, and every dollar was refunded to us.
Bill & Diane - Europe
Missy booked us a wonderful trip! She is very responsive and easy to work with. We had a great time!
Mike - Playa Del Carmen ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
We've worked with Missy several times and have never been disappointed
Retired and love to travel - St. Lucia ~ Caribbean
Missy was very easy to work with. She made the trip enjoyable by handling everything for us very efficiently.
Rosie - Boston ~ Massachusetts ~ USA
I had long desired to go to Italy but really didn't know how to go about getting the experience of several different locations with an adequate amount of time in each. My research turned up Missy Skoog's name as not only someone who was an expert on Italy but also someone who loved it as well. Right from the start I knew she had been a great find. She listened to my vague ideas and then turned them into a practical and detailed plan. We worked with each other to develop an Itinerary that accomplished my goal and met my budget. There were a lot of details to consider which she meticulously took care of with amazing ease. I am absolutely positive that I could never have put together a trip like this without her expert help.
Murrah W. - Italy ~ Europe
Missy was very professional, had lots of connections direct to Alaska and made our experience very painless. I also felt very confident that if we had an issues, which we did not, that they would be well cared for.
Cami - Alaska ~ USA
Missy was very helpful in helping me plan my vacation to Ireland! Trying to plan our trip alone was stressful. I had no idea what I was doing, and overwhelmed with all the choices until we got Missy’s help. She booked great hotels that were in the center of the cities we wanted to see so it was easy for us to see as much as possible. She provided a couple of different itineraries so we could choose which was best for what we wanted out of the trip and the one we chose was perfect! The day tour to northern Ireland was wonderful because we had a great tour guide that gave us so much information about the history of the area. It was an amazing trip and I will always remember our first adventure to the Emerald Isle. Of course we’ll be going back in the future. And with Missy’s help, she makes the planning easy, quick, and within our budget. She is very knowledgable and experienced in travel and will definitely use her services in the future.
Sarah - Ireland ~ Europe
Missy has planned a couple of trips for us now, and she's shown herself to be both knowledgable and easy to work with. For instance, I recently (foolishly!) had her book with a carrier against her advice, because it was a little cheaper than her original recommendation. My attempt go cut corners backfired when the cheaper carrier cancelled our return flight, and we had to book on the airline Missy had originally recommended, at the last minute. I learned my lesson- she knows her stuff!<br/><br/>We have enough confidence with Missy and her agency that we can let them book tours for us on our travels, and they've always turned out great.
pdq - Australia & New Zealand
Missy was incredibly helpful and recommended a great resort
John - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico

We are looking forward to our fifth vacation planned by Missy!
Mike and Peg - Hawaii ~ USA
Working with Missy made our first trip to Europe seamless and very enjoyable. Her expertise in cultural norms, tips on "things you need to know" and her patience in finding the right flights for us were invaluable. It was great to be able to book optional excursions ahead of time through Missy as well as taking care of gratuities for our Director and bus driver so we had one less thing to worry about. We were constantly given updates on our trip status and any emails with questions that arose were answered immediately making for a stress free experience. I would highly recommend Missy as your next travel agent!

We had a wonderful time and had peace of mind knowing all the details of our vacation had been taken care of by a professional.
Jennifer - Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
We have worked with Missy on multiple trips for many years. She is experienced and pleasant to work with. Missy is always responsive and dependable. <br/><br/>Most of our interaction with Missy has been to assist with cruise research and bookings. Missy has helped us personally as well as many of our friends. Besides the normal research and bookings, she has helped us to add people to our booking, make trip adjustments and get information directly from cruise line representatives that we were unable to get on our own. She has definitely helped us in ensuring our varied requirements and preferences for vacationing are achieved.<br/><br/>

Sue - Huatulco ~ Oaxaca ~ Mexico
I love working with Missy. Not only is she knowledgeable and well traveled, but she really understood what I wanted to experience on my Europe trip, even though I could not really articulate it! She found a Luxury Gold trip that included everything- very interesting local sightseeing and food, meeting new people (our group came from other places), and local people as well. i would not have been able to do what i did and experienced what i did had i traveled on my own - which is what I thought I wanted to do! Thank you Missy
Cindy - Spain ~ Europe
The trip was FANTASTIC. Missy gave us several itineraries to begin with and we narrowed it down from there. We picked the perfect one for us. The hotels we stayed in were outstanding...not only the hotels but the locations to shopping and restaurants, too. The adventures Missy booked for us were wonderful. We had the perfect mix of adventure and down town to enjoy the city/area we were in. It was definitely the trip of a lifetime!
Deb adn Dean - New Zealand ~ Australia & New Zealand
My husband and I have a wonderful experience using MIssy Skoog as our travel agent. She was so very helpful and very responsive to our frequent emails and questions. Even if she couldn't answer our question right away she would let us know that was working on it and when we could expect an answer by. She was extremely helpful in the beggining stages of planning our destination wedding by giving us many pamplet's and plenty of information on each resort. I would high recommend Missy!
Kelsey - Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Missy did a fabulous job of arranging every detail of our trip and was exceptionally responsive to our every question and especially our last minute requests.<br/><br/>Our 12 day trip thru parts of Italy and Switzerland included stops at 5 different hotels. Our rooms were consistently in terrific locations and exceeded our expectations in terms of views they offered and cleanliness. <br/><br/>Missy prearranged our transportation from city to city.....everything was perfect.<br/><br/>The trip was a gift to our daughter and son-in-law. Our son-in-law had not been to Europe before. We all had an exceptional experience.<br/>

What a delight to work with Missy, her flawless expertise made our vacation experience simply wonderful. My husband and I, along with 40 friends and family, attended a beautiful destination wedding in Playa del Carmen at the Grand Sunset Princess Resort. Missy’s experience within the destination wedding and honeymoon industry truly shined as the logistics were seamlessly coordinated from flights, private transfers, beautiful ocean view accommodations, excursions, wedding day logistics and much more, for all attending guests. <br/><br/>If you’re considering a destination wedding or looking for options on where to honeymoon, I highly recommend contacting Missy because of her ability to deliver such high quality service and truly remarkable vacation experiences. <br/>Thanks Missy! <br/>
