When i started planning the trip, I knew for sure that I wanted someone to develop a wonderful trip with our input for a dream itinerary and to make this as hassle free for my wife and I. Milica delivered 1000%! It was the best organized vacation ever and everything went smoothly and we saved a ton of wasted time using Milica. I can't say enough about Milica! If you want a great trip start in Rome, then to Florence, day trip to Cinque Terre, then to Milan, day trip to Lake Como and finish in Venice! Gonna have Milica start on next year adventure in Europe!

Arranging a tour or cruise can be confusing and difficult, especially with so many competitors all…read moremaking similar claims. We chose Expedia to travel to Europe this year. We ended up picking a Princess Cruise and related land tours. Dave Branson is our consultant and he took it upon himself to arrange the cruise and our land tours and flights. He did a superlative job. One can only hope that a cruise meets the expectations that the advertisements often pique. In our case, Princess came up short, being that the ship seemed to be out of date in terms of decor and amenities. Food was also inconsistent. The tour advisor cannot be blamed for the failings of the cruise line. Without Dave Branson our experience would have been far different, and probably much less enjoyable.

You can't beat Expedia in Laguna Hills. I love a cruise…read moreship, the luxury, the service, the engineering marvel, the ocean, the food the entertainment. I've been many times for over 25 years and booked direct and with travel agents. Direct is ok for something simple, you know the cruise line maybe and maybe repeating a trip...say Carnival for the Christmas weekend to Ensenada...but my experience is that the pricing is the same whether buying direct from the line or buying with a travel agent. The travel agent gets a small commission from the line, obviously but they are buying at a discount so the pricing is consistent whether buying from the travel agent or going direct. But what you get FOR FREE from the travel agent is often invaluable in the form of advice about a particular line, the cruise, the ports, where on the ship you want you state room and a dozen other question that these experts to provide. The team at Expedia Laguna Hills is great at this. Old school customer service, actually answering the phone personally and helping you RIGHT NOW, not a website, not endlessly clicking for answers you can't find, real answers when you need them. Dave, Chris and others are responsive, knowledgeable, experienced and very easy to understand, very hard to find in our modern world and so great to have them right here in Orange County.

It's a bit difficult to find parking, but after that's settled, knock 3 times on the door and upon entry, you are greeted and signed in. We were greeted by Sabrina and Alyssa. They were friendly and welcoming and made sure that all of our questions were answered. The whole experience is neat because in such a small area, there are so many things to see, smell, and read! They have their own section of a gift shop as well. I can't wait until they expand their location and I'm so glad they our family had the opportunity to experience the Museum of Make Believe.

The audio tour and plaques along the way provided a lot of information and we spent at least 2 hours here wandering around and taking everything in, you could easily spend more time than that here. Beautiful grounds and it was amazing to see the original and uncovered structures that existed so long ago. You end up at the gift shop at the end and we left with a postcard and a magnet for home.

In Springtime they do the Easter Bunny egg hunt etc. Used to know a couple that were married here as well. Wondering if they still do that? My favorite thing to do here, is visit one of the nearby restaurants, take the food to go, and enjoy a picnic Table with benches. A beautiful thing to do here at Heritage Hill Park.

The gift shop was a museum too and had lots of interactive exhibits for the kids. We saw live snakes and frogs on display as well. Across the street from the gift shop was the actual sanctuary which is a 0.25 mile loop - you can finish it within 10-15 minutes if you want fast. An amphitheater and bird viewing area is in there as well. The creek was dry when we went but did see a small pond with lots of tadpoles. Also be aware of rattlesnakes as we heard they come out in the summer time. Trail was 80% shaded so was not so hot. Found out that TUCKER was acquired by ENC of Newport Beach in 2022 so you'll see lots of ENC gear in the gift shop. There are essentially 2 ENC locations now - one here and one in Newport Beach. Pretty interesting!

A Truly Unforgettable Experience -- Thank You, Drew!…read more I cannot say enough amazing things about Drew from Black Swan Gondola. From the moment I sent my very first email inquiry, he delivered a phenomenal experience that exceeded every expectation. Planning a surprise proposal is nerve‑wracking, but Drew made the entire journey feel effortless. His communication -- through emails, calls, and thoughtful check‑ins -- reassured me every step of the way. His professionalism is top tier, but what truly sets him apart is his genuine desire to craft the most meaningful and memorable moment possible. On September 3rd, 2026, he helped pull off the perfect surprise proposal, and it was everything I hoped for and more. The edited video and photos he captured elevated the entire experience to another level. They were beautifully done and allowed us to relive the magic of that day over and over again. If you're considering a gondola experience -- especially for a proposal -- trust me, choose Black Swan Gondola and choose Drew. He is exceptional at what he does, and we are forever grateful for the role he played in one of the most important moments of our lives.
