What a Time to Remember!
Surya planned my trip to New Orleans for my daughter's college graduation and it couldn't have been better! She was completely attentive to our needs and planned an amazing trip within my budget. She booked amazing accommodations, recommended great places to eat (Zea's, Another Broken Egg, Café du Monde, etc.), and completely personalized our itinerary for that weekend. Every time I return to New Orleans, I'll be solely booking with Surya!

Amazing Birthday Weekend!
I wanted to take the time to acknowledge how amazing of a job Surya at Solvoyage has done to help me and my spouse with finding the best place to stay for my birthday weekend. She has done an amazing job helping us put together an itinerary that was perfect! She even gave me multiple suggestions for food places with a great aesthetic and nightlife scene. She also went out her way to book the restaurant reservations for us. And even sent a follow-up message to check and see how our weekend went. Surya is definitely the standard! I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a travel agent and anyone who is looking to put together a detailed itinerary with someone who actually cares about your needs and vision to a great and unforgettable experience.

Unbelievable Vegas Adventure!!!
I was going on a trip with some friends to Las Vegas for the Day N Vegas Music Festival and I couldn't have found a better agent than Surya. From ensuring we had the best flight to filling our days with exceptional activities, Surya truly made my friends and I's first time in Vegas something to remember. We were able to stay in a gorgeous suite at Club Wyndham Desert Blue, explore much of the Strip, ride the High Roller, and enjoy the various marvels that Las Vegas has to offer. Much of the trip was attending the festival, but she planned every other aspect to the T. She keeps your budget in mind, but ensures that every dollar is spent towards creating an unforgettable trip. This was my first time working with a travel advisor, but after this experience I can't see myself planning another trip without one!
