Her expertise, attention to detail, and exclusive knowledge and insight in traveling goes above and beyond! She sets the bar high. My husband and I have booked a couple of vacations through her and we have always had such a wonderful experience everywhere we have gone. From her recommendations, to organizing a well detailed itinerary, with organized transfers and pick ups to every location. We have had great experiences through her. She is always very prompt to reply and is a quick phone call, text, or email away. In 2021, we booked our dream honeymoon with her to the Polynesian Islands in Tahiti, Moorea, and Bora Bora. YES , WE DID THE OVERWATER BUNGALOWS and it was a dream come true, nothing compares to the views, the peace, and the beauty that French Polynesia holds. Recently in December 2025, we decided to book a last minute trip back to Tahiti (because we loved it so much the first time) and DC was able to get us a beautiful vacation in Sofitel Kia Ora. The experience once again was wonderful, and we are thankful to DC for making another vacation feel as if we were reliving our honeymoon again. Thank you DC for being so devoted to your clients, and going above and beyond for us. Your passion for your work truly shows, and we cannot wait to book another vacation through you soon!

DC Made Our Italy Trip Truly Exceptional!…read more Working with DC was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She asked all the right questions to understand what kind of experience we wanted, then crafted an itinerary that fit our family perfectly. Before we left, she walked us through every detail so we felt completely confident about the logistics -- and throughout the trip, she kept us informed of any updates so everything stayed stress-free. Her recommendations were spot‑on. Our flights and transfers were smooth, and every driver was early, professional, and thoughtful (the chilled water was such a nice touch). The hotels she chose were wonderful -- especially the Baglioni in Rome, which was stunning in every way. Charme was equally memorable with its charming rooms, warm hosts, and breathtaking views. The tours DC arranged were fantastic, with knowledgeable guides and well‑organized experiences, especially in Rome. We loved the Secret Food Tour in Florence most of all. Even when unexpected things came up, we always felt supported. DC's attention to detail, communication, and genuine care made this a trip we'll always remember. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone planning an experience of a lifetime!

My…read morehusband and I are in our 70's, so having the travel arrangements (including transfers, flights between Japan and South Korea, and flights from and to Los Angeles) go smoothly was a real boon. He helped us select truly lovely hotels and arranged for extra amenities, which made the trip that much more pleasant and easier. With his help, we got very good tour guides who spoke English and were quite flexible when our needs changed. Each guide was friendly and highly competent. Despite my getting sick when I was there, I still had a really wonderful time. I highly recommend Dustin and TravelStore Los Angeles. I found this company by using Yelp!

ENJOY YOUR VACATION DON'T STRESS OVER IT!…read more After 4 hours on the computer researching the best places for my wife and I to stay for our first Greek adventure, we hadn't booked a single stay or excursion (I am very adventurous and have booked several of my own trips). We wanted this trip to be very special and we both knew we were going to need some help. I was a little hesitant at first because I don't like to do touristy vacations or book with guides or groups. Luxury Travel & Beyond was what I was looking for I just didn't know it yet. We got in touch with Antionette and we were blown away by the trip she was able to curate for us. She helped us structure the trip in the best way for the time we had and she was able to work with our budget. She presented all different options and gave us the information we needed to decide how we wanted to do our trip. She was so easy to work with and we could both feel her excitement for us to go enjoy our trip. This was my first time using an expert travel advisor and I am so glad I did. Everything about our trip was so well thought out and we felt so taken care of the entire way! It also happened to be my wife's birthday towards the end of the vacation and Antionette helped me plan several wonderful surprises to really wow my wife (I felt a little guilty even taking credit because it was so easy). Toni was in touch with us the entire trip making sure we were being taken care of and was there when we needed to make adjustments or ask for advice. Every hotel, restaurant reservation, spa experience, excursion, airport transfer, travel tip and concierge service was par excellence. Worth every penny. Worry free vacation that was tailored exactly to our liking. Go with her recommendations she knows what she is talking about! We were able to fully enjoy our 10 days in Greece. Beyond what we were expecting! Thank you Toni! 10 out of 10 will be using Luxury Travel & Beyond for our next vacation!

I decided to get online and see what I could find.......HOLY OVERWHELMING! There were so many destinations and prices with several hundred dollar variances (for the same destination mind you). I spent several days looking at different destinations, resorts, and flights and just couldn't bring myself to spend thousands of dollars online with no guidance. It was at this point that I decided to reach out to TravelLulu and it was the best decision I could have made!!! I told her (Liora, the owner) the type of vacation I was envisioning, my potential travel dates, and my price range; within a matter of hours she responded with a recommendation that was within my budget along with payment options. She provided a couple of other options, but professionally recommended one particular destination: Club Med-Turks and Caicos. She advised me to go on their website and take a look and get back to her if she thought it would be a good fit. By the time I got back to her with a, "this is PERFECT!" she had already tentatively secured flights and the room. I gave her a down payment and the rest of the money wasn't due until a month before my trip. Fast forward several months- we are on VACATION! To say this was the most perfect destination/vacation for us would be an understatement: Club Med was AMAZING! We could be as busy (or not busy) as we pleased. They had fitness classes every day, snorkeling, water aerobics, paddle boarding, windsurfing, sailing, tennis, TRAPEZE (my personal favorite), a beautiful pool, and the most amazing stretch of beach on the island. They also had a FULL liquor/wine/bar offering, shows every night, and an after party- ALL INCLUDED. I did not spend a dime once we arrived. Liora even took care of our shuttle to-and-from the airport, which ended up costing about $40 per person each way if not already arranged (these little touches make her the BEST!). The whole experience....from start to finish....was incomparable thanks to TravelLulu. I will be using them again in the future and would recommend the company 1000 times over to anyone looking for a unique, fun, relaxing, adventurous, EASY travel experience.

We knew very little about…read morethe country and only knew we wanted to see Tokyo and Kyoto, but had no idea where to stay, what else to do, etc. Hoffy Travel helped us find the absolute best hotels in the right parts of town, worked with us to fill our trip with awesome sites, tours, and activities, and gave us an incredibly detailed itinerary that was easy to access as a phone app. With it we always knew where we had to go next, how long it would take, and what were the exact transportation steps needed. Furthermore, Hoffy Travel was constantly available via a chat option in the app, so whenever we had a question about something, we would get a response in an incredibly short amount of time. If you're planning to take a trip, I highly suggest you give this company your business. They will make sure you see things you didn't even know existed, as well as make every step of your journey flow smoothly.

It was…read morea three week trip, with an incredible amount of logistics and details and with Christine's help it was SEAMLESS. We had a fantastic family vacation. Christine was available to us 24/7 during our trip, but we never really needed to reach out, as she had everything pre arranged. From dining, to transfers, to hotel and experiences, she took care of every detail Christine was incredibly easy to work with, was always so kind and accommodating. The planning process with her was so fun, too! She was transparent, she provided her opinion and most of all, she is extremely knowledgeable. I can't recommend Christine Andraus and her team enough. I will only be working with her for all future trips!

A Deeply Disappointing Experience:…read more We engaged Partenza Travel, led by Christine Andraus, for not just one but two important vacations: a milestone birthday trip and a family vacation with three other families. Christine came highly recommended, with promises of access to exclusive properties and assurances that she could meet our specific budget and requirements. However, our experience has been nothing short of a disaster, leaving us feeling exploited and severely disappointed. Broken Promises and Misrepresentation: Christine assured us that she had the connections and expertise to find unique, exclusive properties that would cater to our needs and fit within our budget. Based on these promises, we entrusted her with planning our trip. We provided clear requirements and a reasonable budget, which Christine agreed to. Despite clearly communicating our preference for specific types of accommodations, we were presented with options that not only missed the mark but also ignored key aspects of our requirements. We received 3 options. 1/ a villa that was 2x our budget, 2/ a villa with 5 rooms instead of the requested 7, and 3/ a Hilton Resort (vs. private villa as requested), which was the same price and availability we found ourselves online. Unprofessional Conduct and Financial Exploitation: When we raised our concerns and requested a resolution, Christine's response was disappointing. Instead of acknowledging the gap between what was promised and what was delivered, she was dismissive and unyielding, insisting on keeping a non-refundable fee despite failing to meet our needs. This refusal to refund the money for services not rendered in good faith has left us feeling taken advantage of and deeply dissatisfied. She eventually agreed to refund 50% of the $4,000 we gave her. To add insult to injury, separately we were also planning a milestone birthday with Christine in a separate thread. Because we had "disrespected" her, she ended that relationship as well, and decided she deserved 75% of the $1800 ($1350) fee for that trip as well. All in all, for a combined $3350 in fees, the sum total of value we received from Christine is that she found us the property for the birthday trip. Our 4 families received nothing of value for the holiday trip. Causing Unnecessary Stress and Inconvenience: What was meant to be a joyous and memorable group vacation (and birthday) has turned into a source of stress and frustration. We are now forced to start from scratch on the family trip, seeking alternative arrangements on short notice, all while dealing with the financial implications of Christine's failure to deliver. Conclusion: Our experience with Christine Andraus and Partenza Travel has been nothing short of a nightmare. The way she has handled this situation--through misrepresentation, unfulfilled promises, and an unwillingness to rectify the situation--reflects poorly on her professionalism and integrity. We strongly caution anyone considering her services to think twice and seek alternative options that will not leave you disappointed, out of pocket, and back at square one.
