We have just returned from an amazing vacation that was organized by an outstanding agent, Katherine Poon. Katherine was able to accomplish in 24 hours what I had tried to do for months and that was locate and book a reasonably priced vacation for my wife and I. With one phone call I was able to provide Katherine with a wish list of what I was looking for and by the next day she had provided me with well informed vacation options to review and eventually book. The outstanding service doesn't stop there.... Katherine provided in the moment updates and brought forward recommendations on how to prepare for our trip. She was readily available to ask questions and not only provided her answer but would check in with our resort as well to clarify. Katherine's network and the ability to connect with the resort was key in arranging special requests and a much better vacation experience then I could have ever predicted Katherine 's bright spirit and welcoming availability made her a delight to work with in planning our trip. I can't wait to work with her again in the near future THANK YOU!!!!

Susie - Cuba ~ Caribbean
We're both very pleased and fortunate to have found Katherine for our winter holiday in Dec 2022. Not only did she find an amazing place for us in the Caribbean, she made sure we secured the booking and received updates in a timely manner during a busy travel season. We loved her recommendation so much, we would love to go back! I would recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a fabulous, knowledgeable and experienced agent to book your vacation.
Priyanka - Playa Del Carmen ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
I have reached out to Katherine for potential travel to attend a family member's funeral. Katherine answered my call promptly & took the time to educate us on the pandemic travel restrictions, border closure, flight suspension, special permission to enter and travel requirements, etc. After much consideration, we have decided against travel at this time but will definitely reconsider travel once the restrictions are lifted/loosened.<br/><br/>Thank you again for all of our help and very thorough information. We will certainly be contacting you once travel is a more feasible activity!

D - Negril ~ Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Katherine was very pleasant to work with and was very helpful throughout the whole process of dealing with a travel advisory. She was very knowledgeable and provided expert advice on our situation. She was able to answer all of our questions and reached out to our destination hotel on our behalf when we needed to contact them. Overall, I am very satisfied by the service we received from Katherine and most definitely will be planning our future trips with her.
CW - Cuba ~ Caribbean
Katherine was an amazing travel agent and asset to have planning our multi-country trip in Europe last summer. She took care of everything from our trains between countries, our flights, hotels, and our tickets to certain hot-spots! Highly recommend working with her for any trip.
Toni and Cam - Europe
I recently embarked on a Japan tour meticulously planned by my outstanding travel advisor, Katherine Poon @ Fun In Paradise Travel & I am still in awe of the incredible experience she curated for me. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene temples of Kyoto, every moment was filled with wonder and delight. These experiences not only deepened my appreciation for Japanese culture but also left me with cherished memories that will last a lifetime.<br/>I must commend Katherine for her impeccable attention to details, she took the time to understand my interests and preferences, crafting an itinerary that was tailored to suit my individual tastes. Every aspect of the itinerary was flawlessly organized, ensuring a seamless and stress-free journey throughout, from transportation to accommodations, every arrangement exceeded my expectations.<br/>I cannot recommend Katherine highly enough and look forward to planning my next adventure with her expert guidance.<br/><br/>
Spoonie - Japan ~ East and Southeast Asia
Dealing with Katherine was wonderful. Husband and I were looking for a ‘once in a lifetime” trip to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Several destinations were discussed and we decided on a Paul Gauguin South Pacific cruise with a 3 night stay in overwater bungalow in Bora Bora. Katherine was extremely prompt in answering any questions we had and provided detailed information. Unfortunately due to a medical issue we are unable to travel and therefore needed to cancel our trip, once again Katherine was extremely efficient in ensuring all details were handled in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend Katherine and will be reaching out to her again when we are looking for travel arrangements.
Di - Tahaa ~ French Polynesia ~ South Pacific
Katherine provides exceptional service, in good times & challenging. She's hard working, highly responsive & leaves no stone unturned on your behalf. She also has to be the most conscientious travel agent out there! Our family would work with Katherine ANYTIME, highly recommended!
DL - Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Katherine takes enormous pride in delivering exceptional service. For us, she consistently went the extra mile....from unearthing hidden gem resort options to following up on below-the-radar details such as aircraft seat selection. We haven't even gone on our trip yet but we're very happy to have had Katherine on our side as we've gone through the process so far. Highly recommended!!
Doug L - Caribbean
Katherine is excellent, she is very organized and efficient with her work. She always takes great care of her clients, and goes over and above. If small bumps come along, Katherine is always thinking ahead and is right on it right away! Katherine is very hard working and a great travel agent.
Ashley - Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Katherine went “that extra mile” for me, it didn’t matter that she was not likely to earn anything from her efforts, she took the pain and gave exemplary advice at unsociable hours. I will never forget her exceptional support when I most needed it, at a time when being rational was very difficult.
CLV - Ottawa ~ Ontario ~ Canada
Katherine was able to find us a great resort, although this vacation was very last minute. She made sure everything went smoothly for us and there were no complications. Very nice and accommodating travel agent, thank you for a great trip!<br/>

Carissa - Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Katherine was extremely helpful in planning our trip to Nashville. She was always looking for the best flight times, hotel and experiences that would work well for our family. Katherine was extremely attentive and efficient. She genuinely was concerned about how our trip was going (she sent me a note asking how our flight and hotel were) and also made sure we arrived home safely. Great customer service, felt like a valued customer not just a client. I would highly recommend Katherine and would go to her again for future travel.
DinaB -
The food, hotel, and accommodation on this trip were all great for the price. The only downside was the poor water quality at the beach. Overall, we really enjoyed the resort. My travel agent did an excellent job with the arrangements,my husband had a big surprise with the belated birthday celebration. A big thanks to her for giving us such a wonderful holiday
Happy traveler - Dominican Republic | Caribbean
Katherine helped us plan a wonderful family vacation to Maui, including flights, accommodations and car rental. She was very attentive to our wishes and responded quickly to all of our questions. Although there was a small hiccup when the airline changed one of our flights, Katherine helped us quickly re-book a new flight. She was even able to get the airline to waive our seat selection fee.
We returned from Maui 2 weeks ago. Everything went as planned. We were so pleased with our accommodations which exceeded our expectations. Katherine even arranged for a small gift to greet us when we arrived:)
Christine - Maui Island | Hawaii | USA
We decided to change our destination rather short notice and Katherine got it all arranged for us quickly even though she was out of town. She went above and beyond by booking our before and after airport hotel rooms and making sure the parking for our vehicle was confirmed. She set us up with a private driver at our destination which got us to our resort very quickly and we weren't packed into a shuttle that would have taken longer. This is our third year working with Katherine and will 100% be using her in the future! Thank you Katherine!
Donna and Belinda - Antigua & Barbuda | Caribbean
Our trip was perfect thanks to Fun in Paradise! From start to finish, our travel agent took care of everything—flights, hotels, tours, transportation, and even restaurant reservations. She was incredibly responsive, answering all our questions quickly and offering fantastic recommendations.
She truly went above and beyond, solving a last-minute reservation issue with a restaurant, securing us an amazing deal, and even surprising us with a room upgrade for our anniversary. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, making our trip completely stress-free and unforgettable—just like a dream honeymoon/anniversary getaway should be!
If you're looking for a travel agent who is professional, detail-oriented, and genuinely cares about making your trip special, Fun in Paradise is the way to go. Highly recommend! ????? #DreamVacation #StressFreeTravel #FunInParadise

Katherine put our wedding/honeymoon trip together, and all her hard work absolutely contributed to it going so beautifully! From insightful recommendations to timely communication she was always looking out for our best interest, even when it came at the expense of her own. For this reason, I find her highly trustworthy and would recommend her to anyone. In terms of the vacation itself, she planned an absolutely beautiful one that helped us check off so many of the things on our bucket list and made our wedding and honeymoon that much more memorable.
2024 Newlyweds - Hawaii | USA
I had the pleasure of working with Katherine for a trip to Jamaica, and I cannot recommend her services highly enough. From the beginning, Katherine incredibly attentive and proactive, ensuring that every detail of my journey was meticulously planned. She took the time to understand my preferences and needs and came up with good recommendations crafted for me.
Before leaving for my trip, Katherine double-checked everything was in perfect order. She is thorough and dedicated which gave me immense peace of mind knowing I was in capable hands.
At the end of my trip, I encountered an issue with a private car that failed to pick us up at the booked time to go to the airport. Katherine was just a message away, helping resolve my problem.
Katherine went above and beyond to ensure my travel experience was seamless and enjoyable. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and unwavering support makes her stand our from other travel agents that I have worked with. I highly recommend Ka
Ruth S. - Jamaica | Caribbean
We booked our first family vacation with Katherine to Dominican in November. Katherine helped us pick out a great resort and even worked into the late evening to finalize our trip. She arranged to our surprise a birthday cake for my son to be delivered to our suite on his birthday which we very much appreciated. She is very detail orientated so you will be extra prepared for your trip.
Joanna - Dominican Republic | Caribbean
We have booked several times through Katherine and have always had a great experience with great service…but this year I decided to be my own travel agent and book through Expedia…everything looked good with the booking…up until about just over 1 month until our trip when 1 of the airlines we were flying with, cancelled our return flight…I just didn’t know what to do and mass panic set in…when Expedia told us they had no business with the airline and we would have to figure it out in our own I called Katherine…she immediately dropped everything she was working on to assist with my cluster of a vacation…within 24hrs Katherine had resolved all the issues and saved our vacation! She truly is a remarkable travel agent that will work so hard to make your vacation dreams come true! Thank you Katherine!!
Rubisty013 - Dominican Republic | Caribbean
Katherine always does an excellent job planning all my connections and hotels.

Katherine was fantastic to work with for our first trip to Europe. She had great advice and insights for us from planning, to booking, and throughout our actual trip. She was available in real time for any questions and listened to our concerns and needs. We had a great trip and appreciated her attention to detail, prioritizing our comfort since she knew we wanted to be stress free on our honeymoon. We would absolutely recommend working with her and will be booking again in the future. Thank you Katherine!!!

Sandy - Greece ~ Europe
I booked a return flight to Munich for a family gathering during Oktoberfest. Then Air Canada pilots threaten to strike 3 days before our departure (cue the scary music). I spent hours searching for other flights that I could cancel for any reason if the strike is averted. Trying to make sense of refund policies is completely impossible on your own!!! I gave up and called Katherine , who I have used several times in the past. Super Katherine came to the rescue! She found us a flight in the same dates , completely refundable. It was booked and paid for in less time than I spent on my search. I swear she is magic!
Nicky - Munich ~ Germany ~ Europe
We recently had the pleasure of working with K for our 2-week UK trip & we couldn’t be more thrilled/thankful with our experience. From start to finish & beyond, K demonstrated exceptional expertise & diligence. K was very efficient in finalizing our booking including the tour, hotels, train, and flight shortly after collaborating with us. She worked tirelessly between parties to rework all components when the tour company cancelled our initial tour. K met with us in person prior to our trip to debrief us with some extremely useful travel trips. K was incredibly responsive & addressed all our questions promptly. Her communication & attentiveness were outstanding & continued even throughout our trip & after we arrived home, with Covid no less-she still checked in on us. We highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking to explore the world. Katherine’s dedication & professionalism turned our vacation into an unforgettable adventure & we look forward to
Christine - Scotland ~ Europe
Our journey was very pleasant. While AmaWaterways provided a comprehensive one-stop service, it was Katherine's meticulous approach that truly made a difference. From booking flights to handling every detail, Katherine managed everything flawlessly. For instance, due to a timing discrepancy between our flight arrival and the hotel shuttle bus to Lake Como, Katherine arranged an excellent transfer, ensuring we arrived at the hotel smoothly and handled the pre-cruise arrangements efficiently. Thanks to her close working relationship with AmaWaterways’ business manager, I received additional perks and numerous discounts, which saved us money and led to an upgraded river cruise room. Overall, I am very satisfied with this trip. Katherine’s arrangements were seamless, and AmaWaterways’ service also met high standards.<br/>

We don't know whom you scared when you had "words" with Viking, but on all our dining occasions in the speciality restaurants and "The Restaurant", we've been consistently shown to prime window tables. In Chef's Table, we were given the best seats in the house: a cozy corner banquette with a beautiful window view. We're giving you the credit!<br/>Our "celebration" occasions came full of lovely intentions by the staff with a spectacularly beautiful cake arrived, along with a bottle of bubbly. We do thank you for making the arrangements.<br/>Stateroom #5065 has been perfect (perhaps you scared them into that, too?). Midship, just off the elevator, so the rough seas were felt perhaps a little less and we didn't have to walk far down the hallway.<br/>Thank you once again, Katherine, it gave us comfort to know that you were standing by, ready to go to battle for us should the need arises. Things went so well on this journey; we came home with an atti

Katherine is an amazing professional, we were extremely lucky to book our family vacation to Europe with her. When we got the email saying that our flight was canceled, she was able to fix everything for us in 4h!!! taking every stress out of the equation in the middle of the busiest season as Christmas can be. She was even proactive by adding few extra days to our insurance as well. There’s no doubt on my mind that I’ll book all my trips with her. If I could give her 10🌟I would!! I’m pretty sure Katherine has a deal with Santa to make Christmas miracles 😜<br/><br/>This is the other one
Xel Lem - Spain ~ Europe
Katherine is exceptional! She goes above and beyond to answer questions, is so caring and helpful and kind! Not only is she helpful with travel advice to suit your needs and budget, but she is there for you along the way: before, during, and after your trip. She even offered to pay for our return transfer when she knew we were stressed with our son falling ill during our trip. We call her our fairy travel godmother! Always there to guide us!
Thankful - Mexico
This was an amazing family vacation that none of us will forget for the rest of our lives! Having Katherine on all the details just makes everything so much easier…knowing that she’s going to do the best for us make sure all the accommodations are made, like transportations and hotel stays before the embarkation of the ship and after disembarkation as well. We had an unbelievable vacation that i had peace of mind everything would work out smoothly because we had Katherine in our corner!

We booked a 10-year anniversary trip to Maui, Hawaii with our travel agent, Katherine Poon. A few months later, the devastating fire that destroyed Lahaina occurred. This created a lot of extra work and Katherine kept us up-to-date right up until our departure date. Katherine sprung into action again, canceling her personal plans after we missed our connection due to a lockdown at Pearson International, setting us back 24 hours.<br/><br/>She then secured a huge room upgrade and a lovely welcome gift at the hotel.<br/><br/>Carefully consider each piece of advice from Katherine. She has your best interests at heart. We had a great trip and I believe that Katherine put in more time and energy than any other travel agent would have. Many thanks, Katherine, on a dream anniversary trip to beautiful Maui.

Katherine is a very organized and responsible person. This trip our flight is in early morning, she arranged the air hotel and transportation ahead.

Give her a thumb up...good job....Thank you.

I wanted to let you know our holiday in Florence was lovely. Our hotel was in a good spot for exploring the city and the staff at the hotel were great and the breakfast served by the hotel was very good, again staff was lovely and friendly. The private half-day walking tour that was arranged for us was very good, the guide was very personable and knowledgeable - it was a good intro to the city for my brother and sister-in-law who had never been to Florence before. There was no problem with the flights - long lay overs both directions but realize we didn't plan too far in advance for the trip so options became more limited. Thank you for coordinating the trip for the four of us, that was very much appreciated. Look forward to working with you again.<br/>

Katherine, Thank you for arranging the wonderful vacation for us in Jamaica. We had a lot of fun staying at Grand Bahia Prinicipe Resort. We went for the Bamboo Rafting and Horse Back Riding as you recommended. It was a lot of fun. I also spent a lot of time snorkeling right at the beaches. There were a lot of fishes especially where close to the Wedding Gazebo. Thank you for being so detailed and patient with us. Your Professional service and Knowledgeable advices were very much appreciated.

Katherine really tries to ensure that we are having fun on your holidays. She has prepared us well prior to the vacation by telling us what to pack & bring, along with a check list to ensure we do not miss anything including where to pay for our tourist tax on return. To easy off our stresses, she offered to check in online and ensure that we are sitting with our friends together on the plane. Katherine’s outstanding services start from the beginning till the minute we return home. Of course, you can always book your vacation on your own, however, with Katherine’s professional knowledge and tender care, I would never book another vacation without using Katherine’s service

This was our first time taking a trip out of country and everything was so overwhelming…where do we travel to and then what resort do we stay at? Once we decided to go with Katherine she made everything so easy…gave us multiple suggestions for resorts in different countries and we chose our favourite and then Katherine took care of everything else! She answered any and all of our questions, booked our flights and insurance…checked in with us to make sure we understood how to check in for flights and she got us our request to stay on the ground floor at the resort! She was absolutely amazing down to the very last detail and we had an excellent honeymoon trip and will be booking our next trip with Katherine soon!

She is reliable and readily accessible, answering any questions or addressing any concerns in a timely manner.<br/><br/>She had a great attitude, checked in often and made sure we were all set for our vacation.<br/><br/>We vacationed to celebrate my daughter's birthday last month. Katherine secretly arranged for the resort staff to make her feel special, and they sang Happy Birthday and brought her a cake during dinner one night.

All you have to do is dream, book and then enjoy! You can use the internet all you like but it does not compare to talking to a live agent with great knowledge of the travelling business. Thank you Katherine

Peter - Europe
Katherine booked my first post pandemic vacation after 2 years. I was hesitant to try and book myself with all the constant travel restriction so I wanted to use a travel agent. Everything was fantastic from start to finish. Not only was it my first trip but I also went solo after a very long 2 years of being a caregiver to my husband and mom. The resort was probably the best resort I have ever stayed at. Valentin Imperial Maya in Mayan Riviera. Thanks again Katherine for the stress free experience!!

Katherine made our first all inclusive vacation in Mexico stress-free!

It was greatly appreciated and we felt very confident knowing we had booked with an amazing travel agent who <br/>had been there for us from the time we contacted her through the duration of our trip until we arrived home safe and sound! Many thanks Katherine for your patience and understanding ! We will definitely book our next trip with you again!!

Yet again Katherine has done it! I had an amazing and unforgettable trip in Central America over the course of 3 weeks. I felt safe & secure having had the best travel insurance that Katherine found for me after she secured the very last spot available on this wonderful adventure trip. Her promptness in booking my trip was no surprise to me, which is why I keep on using Katherine's travel services. Not just that I had a welcome message from thoughtful Katherine the same day of my return, I also got a nice gift card in mail shortly after that I gladly enjoyed. Really, besides providing excellent, prompt and detailed service, Katherine also truly cares about her clients that inevitably become her friends. :)

KN - South Africa ~ Africa
First, I want to thank you for all your help with organizing our wonderful trip to Jamaica for us. Everything was great, we got all rooms next to each other. <br/><br/> <br/>The flight went smooth beginning with the chauffeured ride to the airport and back home safe and sound. The driver was excellent.<br/><br/>The resort itself (Luxury Bahia Principe) was unbelievable and amazing and the “all inclusive” is a great invention – food, drinks, entertainment, everything was marvellous. The restaurants and buffets were incredible. The pool and beach were very inviting.<br/><br/>We had a full day excursion visiting the Appleton Estates (rum factory), the Y-Falls and the Black River (crocodiles). It was truly an experience.<br/><br/> <br/>I highly recommend this resort. The weather was excellent.<br/><br/> Thank you again Katherine (from Rossi, Monaco & DeLellis family), you did a phenomenal job in planning our Jamaican vacation.

All Inclusive to Cuba – May 2015 Philip & Anita W, London, Ontario Katherine: It is time to say thanks you for all you effort, so we could had a present, enjoyable confident trip, from the time we book till the end of the trip, like to share it with you. We know we were not neglected by our agent, when you e mail us our e ticket and invoice, but we didn't respond you in time, you gave us a courtesy home call to ensure we can board the trip, and by making our seat selection so I would not have to say excuse me to leave my seat. We took your advice to bring the Imodium, peptobismol and Advil, Advil and Imodium were used due to the heat case, the headache and the stomach, so we had confident with the food, you know this time we had two groups and book from two agencies, you booked us to reside just next to theirs, so it was convince for us to keep in touch. Thanks again, and hope to have you next time. Regard, Philip & Anita W
Philip & Anita W -
Recently, I turned to my good friend, Katherine for some travel advice. As snowbirds, we typically drive south, but with the US land border closed to Canadians until Nov 8/21, we were once again having to fly. We had heard that arriving 2 hours prior to our flight, may not be enough time. I chose to contact my trusted friend, and travel agent, Katherine at Fun In Paradise Travel. Not only did Katherine recommend that we arrive at the airport, at least 3 hours before our flight, she also gave recommendations on several locations for COVID testing for travel. Katherine’s advice was bang on! We arrived 3 hours early and just made it to the gate in time for departure. On boarding, we were told the flight would be delayed as 45 passengers were still in customs. Thankfully with the advice of Katherine, we were not the ones holding up the plane or potentially missing our flight. Thanks again, Katherine!
Snowbird - Florida ~ USA
Katherine worked diligently with us and spent a tremendous amount of time planning the most amazing 30th Wedding Anniversary Vacation. She was determined to make our trip “a trip of a lifetime” for us! She maintained our excitement over the year. I was injured early December and Katherine reached out to me weekly to see how my recovery was going and to encourage me to stay positive. I ask who in the service industry does this???? Let me tell you who...KATHERINE POON does!!!!<br/>I have never come across a travel agent who is so dedicated and passionate about what she does and truly cares for the well-being of her clients before, during and after their vacation. I have recommended Katherine to several of my friends and family members who are travelers and they are all 100% satisfied with Katherine's above and beyond service. She has been by our side as we navigate the challenges canceling our vacation due to COVID-19. We will rebook with Katherine our dream vacation to Hawaii for sure.

Katherine is very patient and always has her client's best interest. Due to unforseen circumstances Katherine worked with GoWay Travel and advocated for us to get a refund/credit for our trip We were very thankful with how things turned out.
Valued Customer - Italy ~ Europe
I have worked with many travel agents in the past but none of them have even come close to Katherine’s commitment to customer service and her knowledge. My Mother and I were celebrating her 75th Birthday. I wanted someone who had experience with Hawaii, could direct us to the right hotel, shows, and excursions and Katherine was definitely the person. <br/>Katherine truly goes far above expectations and supports you through the entire trip. We needed wheelchair transportation set up and Katherine arranged that and followed up to ensure they would be there for us. For every thing we did she had detailed instructions . She was able to negotiate an upgraded room with the view we wanted, a catamaran ride, and Birthday surprises.<br/>It was such a pleasure to work with Katherine, a truly dedicated Travel Agent who delivers the best customer service I have ever experienced!<br/>To top it off we received all that at an incredible price!<br/> I highly recommend Katherine. You will not be disappointed!
Nancy and Carrie - Hawaii ~ USA

Me and my group of friends just returned back from our vacation from Jamaica. We were there for a week and it was a blast. Katherine even helped us get upgraded rooms with an amazing ocean view, she also left a little note that we all graduated recently, and the resort left us with a surprise in our rooms. Katherine also checked on us every other day from the day that we left Canada and the day that we returned back !

Julianna -
Katherine is a very thorough travel agent, she always looks out for your best interest. I booked a trip with my Mom and Cousin pre-covid and due to the pandemic situation we had to cancel our plans. Fortunately, we were able to get all of our deposits back, even from Air Canada. If we had booked our trip on online we would not have been so fortunate. This is a great example of the importance of booking with a travel agent. We were so thankful for Katherine's advocacy. We look forward to when we are able to travel freely so we can book our trip once again with Katherine.

Jackson - Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
I've been planning to get away for some time, two years to be exact. Katherine is a customer of ours, I told her that i was looking at going somewhere warm for the holidays since I knew she was in the business. I was only hoping for suggestions from Katherine because I was afraid that it would be too expensive to book with an agent. I gave her a handful of destinations that we were interested in going to and all the questions we had in regards to visa entrees, passports, currencies, travel insurances, weather for this time of year, and excursions. To my surprise she gave me everything in much detail and helped us in making our decision so much easier. Cuba was amazing! We are ready for our next vacation and we would definitely call Katherine to help us out again.
Sillypig -
Katherine worked very hard to get us exactly what we wanted. Unfortunately, we have to cancel due to the virus. This is when you really want to work with an agent. She has been a great support during this difficult time. We also took her advice and got the good insurance. We fully intend to book with her for any future trips.

MB - Italy ~ Europe
It has been a while since we have utilized a travel agent but Katherine was referred to us so we decided to try using an agent this time around for our travel. The question now is........."why not use a travel agent"? ....it is so much more convenient should you have questions about your destination or should you encounter problems with your destination. Katherine is knowledgeable, accessible, responsible, thorough and absolutely on track from start to finish with planning your vacation. I would highly recommend Katherine and have so to other people who have booked with her. Eliminate the hassle of searching through the internet and finding out who, what, when, where, why...........Katherine will answer all those questions for you!!! <br/>

Working with Katherine Was the best decision I ever made. She made sure that everyone had all of the combinations that they desired. , she saw the sound from start to end and not once and I feel uncomfortable. I will never book a trip by myself. I will forever be in love with how well she did. When we had booked our excursions we had a small problem. That being said when I called Katherine to explain what was going on and what our problem was she took care of it instantaneously. It was a huge relief for me and my family being able to just go on this vacation knowing we were in the best hands possible.

We really appreciate you taking the time to explain all the procedure and details about our trip to us. For the first time traveler like us, it is very important for us.<br/>We were having a very good time in Varadero. We brought back lots of suntan and good memories. We met a bunch of good friends and enjoyed a trouble-free first vacation in Varadero. We will have the confidence to take another trip again soon.<br/>We are taking this opportunity to show our appreciation. Thank you very much for your good work!

Feeling overwhelmed as to where to start with planning our trip to Hawaii, Katherine made it easy and took off the pressures of doing all the planning like we normally do on trips. The only hiccup we had was with the pick up from the airport which had nothing to do with Katherine. And, once I told her what occurred, she was all over resolving the issue. Again, she took away any pressures so we could enjoy our trip. The hotel was awesome and glad she recommended it. We stayed at the Kona Sheraton. She had called to confirm a late check out for us and during that process, she managed to make sure we had a room overlooking the Manta Ray Bay. One word - AMAZING! We saw manta rays from our balcony...what a view...not to mention the view of the ocean and all the volcanic rock...love! Katherine checked in with us to make sure all was well which was great and very thoughtful! Everything went smoothly. I want to thank Katherine for being such a great agent!

Just came back from a family vacation in Jamaica. Katherine came through again with making sure any concerns were addressed from the time we were booking until we arrived back home. Katherine’s attention to detail and customer service experience is why we keep booking with Fun in Paradise.

Katherine has been extremely helpful in booking our first vacation to Mexico. Any questions asked, she would promptly answer or if she was unsure, make contact with our hotel on our part. Any issues regarding the hotel room arised, Katherine assisted us and informed us of the necessary steps to take and was very helpful. Booking with Katherine is stress free - she digs deep to ensure there are no hidden fees once at the checking into our resort. We will definitely be recommending Katherine to our friends, and will be soon be looking into booking our next trip with her as well. Thanks for a great vacation to Mexico! <br/>

I have never met anyone so on top of things like Katherine. She caught multiple errors I had made when filling out my information that would have been costly. She thought of details while planning our vacation that I would have never thought of. Any time I had a question she would reply back within minutes every time. She booked tickets for my family to an event on the ship that I didn't even know was happening and my family had the best time. Katherine really does go above and beyond for her clients. She is so thoughtful and bought my kids little Disney gifts for our trip which was so sweet. I would highly recommend Katherine's services to anyone. She truly is wonderful.

My husband and I recently got back from our honeymoon in Runaway Bay, Jamaica. We stayed at the Grand Bahia Príncipe. It was an amazing resort with great food and amazing service. Katherine helped so much from the beginning of the planning to ensure that we had the best honeymoon ever. She was very helpful and knowledgeable when it came to Jamaica as we were first time travellers to Jamaica. When our flight was turned back to Toronto for maintenance issues, Katherine was on the phone right away with Westjet checking on the status of our flight and ensuring that we had transportation to our resort once our flight landed after being delayed several hours. She also helpful in booking our park and fly hotel the day before our flight. Please feel confident booking with Katherine, she is an amazing travel agent who truly cares for her clients.

I would highly recommend Katherine to anyone who is travelling. I just back from my trip to Jamaica and I can honestly say it was by far the best trip ever. She had set up everything for my friends and I. She even arranged for us to receive champagne and cake to our rooms because we graduated from University before the trip.

Sue Grahame - Mexico
When I first contacted Katherine, she got back to me right away. She suggested a few destinations, and sent information on a few resorts. Once we determined St. Lucia as the island we wished to book, she sent through a few more resort options along with her own recommendations.<br/>Anytime I emailed her, she got right back to me with answers to my questions.<br/>Unfortunately, we had to cancel our booking and Katherine was very understanding and helpful. She went above and beyond to get us our money back, even most of our down payment.<br/>I will certainly call Katherine again, should I need to book another trip.
Betsy - St. Lucia ~ Caribbean
Just got back from Jamaica and had a great time with NO WORRIES MON!! Katherine (Poonie) took care of everything...all documents prepared prior to leaving which made hotel and air travel quick and easy. Poonie recommended the Dunns River Waterfall climb which was the familys' favorite excursion:) Look forward to booking a future trip with Poonie!

Katherine was a pleasure to work with. She was knowledgeable and eager to please. When she was unsure she would seek out the info requested. Her recommendation to the Grand Bahia Principe in Jamaica met all of our expectations. We were thrilled to feel welcome and comforted at this beautiful 5 star resort. Thank you Katherine for your recommendation! We already have her working on our next trip!
Horvath - Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Katherine is a very professional travel agent, since I had started planning my Christmas trip to Cuba, she gaves all of the informations about cuba, from the flight to resort, from weather to culture, from her personal experience to her customers feedback; she professionally helped us found what we need for the trip, and avoid many troubles we could have without her tips. Definitely I'm rating her full stars from what she has perfectly done for my trip, and I will recommend katherine to everyone who is willing to have a wonderful trip!

A group of buddies and I had just completed our undergraduate careers are were looking for a great trip to end things off. Katherine was our travel agent and she got us the complete package at the Grand Bahia Principe in Jamaica. From the moment we expressed interest in the trip to the moment we landed, she has been nothing but fantastic. She completely organized everything we could need or want for the trip and I would completely recommend her for future travel plans. Katherine completely took care of us and it was an awesome experience. Thanks for the memories!

This was our second time booking with Katherine and again we received above and beyond customer service. In addition to the outstanding time my family and I had on our vacation I cannot say more about Katherine's attention to detail with all of our travel plans. Katherine's support from the moment we started looking for our vacation destination made the entire process care free and seamless. I can't wait to see what adventure Katherine finds for us next year
Jackson - Tulum ~ Mexico ~ Mexico
Thanks again for your assistance in planning our trip! I can tell you that the trip was amazing all round. Our flight there was smooth and there was virtually no waiting in the airport once we arrived - no line ups at all. <br/>My girls LOVED having the plunge pool and used it every day - they didn’t find it chilly at all. The extra expense for the plunge pool room was worth it for us. <br/>The food was great, the beach was amazing, and the staff was out of this world friendly. Some of them honestly went out of their way to do nice little things for us and we loved our time with them. There were a few staff who even recognized us from last year - it was like seeing old friends.<br/>The return flight was also smooth<br/>
