Consumer Reports, June 2023:

“SHOULD YOU HIRE A TRAVEL ADVISOR?
The right person can help you build the trip of your dreams.
These days anyone can research and book cheap flights or cut-rate hotels, so what value does a travel adviser provide? Plenty, including helping to fix midtrip snafus and keeping you from making an itinerary error on your next vacation. A good travel advisor can get you places you otherwise couldn’t go, leveraging their connections and experience. If your bucket list includes truffle hunting in Tuscany or taking a vintage sailboat to a remote island in the Pacific, the right advisor will have the intel and connections to make it happen. They can also steer you away from newbie planning mistakes, such as booking an oceanfront property in Oahu at a time of year when the surf’s too rough to swim in.”

Happy Travelers

Northern MI Weekend

My siblings and I do the Ironman every year. Spike booked us in a quiet lake house near the race with unbelievable sunset views. He told us the best restaurants and shops in the small resort town of Frankfurt, MI. And then treated us to a morning boat row on a secret lake!

Chicago The Easy Way

Spike planned my group’s Chicago weekend. It was well organized and packed with lots of information. He and his team put together an awesome experience! I’m already looking forward to my next trip.

Iceland Without Worries

For our first trip to Iceland, Spike saved us so much money on flights. He planned the week to see highlights of glaciers, wild horses, waterfalls and a volcano. He had our native guide Aron meet us at the airport in his SuperJEEP. Aron is a helicopter pilot for the Icelandic Coast Guard and a perfect guide!
