Our Happy Travelers
Monica made traveling through Egypt easy, comfortable, and fun. Not only was Monica able to navigate the country and language with ease, but she also facilitated cultural exchange between me and the people we met along the way.
Monica made our entire trip seamless! Her knowledge of Cairo and the surrounding area, Egyptian culture, and excellent communication throughout the process set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic experience.
Jay is so friendly and easy to communicate with. She prompted a trip to Bali, took my travel ideas and plans into consideration, as well as offered her recommendations. It was incredible, I would not hesitate to let Jay plan another trip!
Travelling with Daphne is a true pleasure. Her enthusiasm for new cultures is fantastic. She is very easy going, gets along with everyone, has unlimited energy and makes sure you're enjoying your trip the fullest! I would highly recommend!
Jamie provided me with a driver to and from the airport, selected a comfortable and affordable accommodation to my liking (within walking distance from the beach), and planned a nice mix of fun filled activities and down time for rest.
Jamie has a gift of travel. What I found amazing, was her ability to curate an itinerary that balances the must see main attractions with the lesser known but no less amazing attractions of the country.
