Testimonials

“We had the best time in Thailand and your planning of activities and lodging were seamless and exactly what we were looking for. Bangkok was overwhelming but felt so much more approachable our second time around, and Chiang Mai was by far our favorite. The beach, too, was beautiful. We had a massage at the resort and a fancy meal on the beach on our last night. Thank you for putting together such a memorable trip.”

Hoping we get to work with you again in the near future,

“We have just returned from Mozambique after 24 hours of travel. Thank you so much for organizing all that, it was fantastic! The Four Seasons in Johannesburg and the Sentidos resort were both outstanding choices, we were very happy with them. The service was great at both places and the accommodations very comfortable.

The diving in Mozambique was slightly disappointing, however, not because there wasn’t a lot to see (there was SO much marine life everywhere!) but because of the poor conditions: huge swells almost every day making 45-minute boat trips in a rib from dive site to dive site not very comfortable, and poor visibility making diving itself a bit frustrating. (We decided to forgo Freediving altogether after the second attempt because you couldn’t see anything from the surface.)

That being said, the entire trip was worth it, if nothing else, then for the fact that we had three days of whale shark encounters where we got to swim right next to a whale shark, and that’s something I’ve wanted to do my entire life.

We had wanted to try surfing as well but were just too exhausted after being up at 6 every day to go diving that we would often come back to the resort after diving followed by a late lunch and just spend the rest of the afternoon relaxing and going through the day’s videos/photos.

If you ever do send other guests to Mozambique in the future, I highly recommend having them stay at Sentidos (not Too de Mar, we walked past it every day and it looked cheap) and having dinner at the Green Turtle (a restaurant run by a French woman close to Sentidos). We spent our last evening there and had the most delicious seafood.

Again, thank you for all your help in organizing this trip!”

All the best,

Christina

“Hi Sharon…Just wanted you to know we have made it to Santorini! We loved Athens and Crete… each with its own unique culture and beauty. We are sitting on our veranda here in our third vacation destination and Loving it!! We so appreciate your efforts to ensure we would have fabulous memories. After resting a bit we will venture out for a late lunch. This view is the most incredible of all… as you suggested a great way to end our stay!

Thanks so much for the loving greeting messages, wine, and fruit at each location. Your caring manner and attention to details are greatly appreciated!

Big Hugs!❤️”

“We are having a Fabulous vacation… We are now on the final leg as we just arrived at the Ilala Lodge. Each lodging has been exceptional in their accommodations and customer service, from the Saxon, Sabi Sabi Camp, and Kensington Place to here. Each has its own charm and picturesque views. We are sitting on the veranda here at Ilala about to enjoy a late lunch before embarking on our sunset river cruise…. Loving it All! You have scored 100+ in your planning.😊😊😊

THANKS also for letting everyone know we are still celebrating our 20th! Rose petals, candles, and sweet treats galore!

Thanks for all of your Hard Work in association with Cox and Kings and Wilderness Tours… It has certainly paid off!!”

“We had a GREAT trip. Every hotel or B&B booked for us was perfect. The Rabbies tour in Edinburgh, the Bath and Oxford walking tour were fantastic. All the drivers were safe drivers, punctual and familiar with the area. The trains were so EASY to take. I could print all the tickets at one time, but I chose to print when I arrived at the station.

Often strangers that we meet on a trip will ask who arranges our trip. We do give your name as our travel consultant. I reluctantly give your name because I want to keep you all to MYSELF.

Thank you again!”

“I found Sharon on-line looking for a handler for my Bucket Trip of a lifetime. Sharon’s knowledge and understanding of what I was trying to achieve was immediately evident and reassuring. My trip involved myself and my best friend on a whirl-wind tour of St. Petersburg, London and surrounding environs, Bruges, Prague, Rome, Naples and surrounding environs, Athens and surrounding environs, Santorini, Delos, Naxos and Mykonos. The trip ran for thirty-two days!

Sharon displayed an expert control over all of the details of the trip. I worked with her on a weekly basis before hand, creating a schedule that would work and cover all the ground I was seeking. I gave her the must-do items, and added the hope-to-do items. She created a superb itinerary for the trip. She also incorporated scheduled events that I discovered along the way. Like concerts and necessary tours. She was instrumental in getting my trip within budget!

Sharon was gracious with her time and displayed a very encouraging response to items that required contact with “the ground crew” in Europe. All questions were answered in a day or two.

When it came time to actually get paperwork for the trip, she and her team did a super job prepping the trip and sending all of the documents needed to succeed. Everything was crystal clear.

One of the benefits of this kind of travel with a professional organization was discovering that once we took off, we were actually being followed by the ground crew for the duration! If we missed an appointment, something that is going to happen on a thirty-two day trip, I received a phone call from the ground crew within in minutes wondering if we were ok!

Another benefit is absolute support if something goes wrong. My C-Pap Machine was mistakenly left at a hotel by the baggage handlers and we took off to other cities as it was sitting behind. The ground crew was diligent and instrumental in getting the C-Pap machine mailed and forwarded across Europe as it was inevitably and forever day behind us! The costs fluxuated and the ground crew kept on the job, getting the costs down to reasonable levels. Eventually, the incurred costs were waved by Sharon’s team; a wise professional move for a trip that cost over $40,000.

Sharon and her team were well aware that this was a bucket trip, and their care and concern were a welcome benefit while traveling across Europe for a month! I cannot recommend her company with enough enthusiasm! She will take care of you and provide a professionally organized experience!”

“Well Sharon, you certainly outdid yourself!! Hotel 1898 is beautiful and once again just a hop and a skip from las ramblas!

Madrid was a great time, did some shopping, drove to Toledo. Toledo was beautiful. Beautifully conserved as much if not more than Sevilla.

Thanks again for putting this great package together. I really appreciate it!! ”
