My Reviews

Kenya adventure
I had the pleasure of visiting Kenya about 10 years ago and had always wanted to go back one day. Me and several family members had decided to plan another trip to Kenya and Tanzania as well. My cousin suggested a travel agent to help us plan and book the trip. I was referred to Monica who is an African Travel specialist and she was very knowledgeable. She was very patient and listened to all our trip requests and how much we had to spend. Monica was able to coordinate all that we wanted and to keep us on budget. Me and my family loved the beauty and adventure of Kenya and of course we had to also visit Tanzania to do a National park tour. The hotel, the food and the tour was amazing, we had a perfect family adventure. Thanks so much for your expertise. Monica is highly recommended as an African Travel Specialist.

My cruise deal
I had wanted to take a cruise with my bestie and wasn't sure if we could afford it at the time. I looked online and saw a couple deals and I reached out to Monica from her social media deals posted. Monica contacted me the same day and we discussed what we wanted. She was able to get us a great deal for a 2 day cruise, which was perfect. We had a fabulous time in the Bahamas and the food was amazing and the views. We definitely recommend Monica to find you a great deal and we will be cruising again soon!

Family cruise time
Our family was looking to do a family cruise and we had only taken them on a Disney cruise when they were young. We needed help in deciding which cruise line and the packages offered. My co worker referred us to Monica as a family cruise specialist. Monica was quick to respond and speak with us on what we wanted. Monica was able to put together a cruise package for our family that fit our budget and needs. Our cruise to Coconut Bay resort was so nice, we have a wonderful time. My daughters also really enjoyed it too. Thank you so much for making our cruise a reality.

Best Cancun resort
Me and my friends had just graduated from college together and decided that we were going to take a girls weekend trip to Mexico. We had no idea of which resort we wanted to go to and wanted a package deal. We were referred to Monica as a Cancun Travel Specialist to help us with our booking. Monica was knowledgeable about the different resorts in Mexico and was able to work with our budget. We booked through her to visit the Hard Rock resort and it was amazing. The service, food and our suite was perfect. Monica is wonderful and I would refer her to anyone traveling to Mexico. Thank you so much.

Punta Cana weekend
I had just graduated from college and my parents rewarded me with a Punta Cana vacation. I knew that I wanted to go to a luxury resort, but I wasn't sure which one to go to. My neighbor had visited the D.R. and referred me to Monica as a Travel Specialist for the D. R. Monica was easy to reach and very knowledgeable about all resorts in the D.R. She listened to what I wanted and was careful to stay on budget. I finally selected a Punta Cana resort and was very excited for the trip. Our trip was great and there were no issues, and the resort was very luxurious. Me and my friend had an amazing weekend and will be booking another destination resort in the D.R. She is highly recommended as a Travel Specialist for the D.R.
