The tour group announcement came home in May of 2025. My daughter really wanted to attend, which is…read morerare that she gets excited about school trips. I was a few months away from finishing Breast Cancer treatment so I wanted to make this happen for her since the last year of my time was spent in treatment and feeling ill. I knew it would be a tough expense but I wanted to spend valuable time with my daughter after having to undergo treatment and feeling like I couldn't be as present during that time as I normally would be. I logged on to Bob Rogers Travel and entered the group information for East Troy Community School District's Choir group. We had not yet been provided a finalized itinery and in fact, the itinerary changed several times over the next year. I signed us up in good faith and chose to add the travel insurance as traveling with children is always uncertain. Throughout the year I made my payments on time, reviewed itinerary changes each time and my daughter and I were excited for our special trip. After President Trump started the war and TSA agents were replaced by ICE workers, my daughter started becoming very anxious about the trip. She was worried that there was a chance of retailiation to New York City. She was afraid of ICE agents at the airport and was worried about the images of the long lines for lack of TSA and the possibilites of what could happen to New York City while we would be there. She was losing sleep, having anxiety and panic attacks at the thought of it all. Knowing my daughter, I was worried that she would have a panic attack in the airport or while in New York City that could impact the whole group or worse, require a higher level of care while in a city that we don't know. I told my daughter that it was up to her if she wanted to cancel the trip since I bought the travel insurance, I should get a refund. She took some time to think about it and told me that since I will get a refund, she prefers to cancel. I logged on to Bob Rogers Travel and requested to cancel my trip. I was then directed to go to Trip Mate to submit a request for my travel insurance. I didn't realize my insurance was through a third party. But I submitted my proof of cancelation, my documentation for my reasons, explaining that my daughter has anxiety and gets panic attacks, I provided documentation showing the travel warnings, etc. The website stated that it could take up to 25 days for a refund. I didn't worry about that, I felt confidant that I would get a refund and I saved my daughter much undue stress and trauma. Then I got an email stating that I would not be refunded. Unaware to me, there are very few and extreme circumstances when Trip Mate will actually pay a claim. I then messaged Bob Rogers Travel explaining my circumstances as well. Both interactions between Trip Mate and Bob Rogers Travel responses were rude and snarky. On Trip Mate, I filed for an appeal. I explained my situation thoroughly to Bob Rogers Travel again, since they are the one that I paid all of the money to for a trip that we canceled and did not take. I pointed out to Bob Rogers Travel that I feel their practices are predatory as they target tour groups and mostly schools. I as a single mother can not afford to lose out all of these funds for a trip that I did not take and I canceled only due to political agency and systems that are beyond my control. I did not realize the travel insurance was, in my opinion, a scam. I was not able to choose who they pick for travel insurance and I wouldn't have even purchased it had I realized the limited ability to cancel at any time. Reading through the policy is not easy and is very restrictive. I think Bob Rogers Travel knows this, which is why they pick Trip Mate, in order to get away with not giving refunds. Both of these companies are acting together in predatory practices to scam people out of their money. I'm a single mom, recovering Cancer patient with a daughter that was losing sleep and having anxiety attacks. It would have been negligent of me to force her to go on this trip. There is no reason why I shouldn't get a full refund. Not only that, but using an insurance company whose policies are so convoluted and difficult to understand is further upsetting. When purchasing airline tickets or other travel groups, it is clear that you can cancel at any time to get a refund. I wonder how many other single parents or families have been treated like this through these two companies. Not just the lack of refund, which is egregious, but also the rude responses from customer service. I wish I would have researched BOTH companies before signing up. Trip Mate also has terrible reviews and is listed all over as being a predatory company.

We started planning our destination wedding over 2 years early. We researched planners and set up…read moreappointments with a couple different companies. We experienced no shows and poor response times. We were super frustrated with the entire process. Enter Lori. We found her on a destination wedding site and she piqued our interest. We set up an initial meeting and were sold from the beginning. She had solid answers to our laundry list of questions with plenty of material to back it up. She listened to our very specific wants and knew just where to direct us. On top of that, she got us some great deals. We  started our process with a group size of approximately 40 guests.  Now enter COVID 19. Our original date was 10/10/2020. We had everything in place from rooms to flights to ceremony. Like many COVID brides, we decided to pull the plug and reschedule for 2021. Talk about scramble! Finding times that will work for a group our size was a nightmare since all the other couples were rescheduling also. But Lori not only held our hands through the entire process, she went above and beyond to seek out every avenue to make it less stressful on us both mentally and financially. She worked day and night to move us and our group to the date we chose and emailed, called and worked our flight and resort vendors to make it as painless as possible for my people. We lost nearly half our group in the reschedule and due to travel concerns and Lori handled all of my friends and family members with grace and understanding. Lori is knowledgeable, honest and my most FAVORITE Lori quality is her response time. I would email her questions anytime they popped in my crazy over anxious COVID bride brain and she would almost always respond right away. I told her multiple times to ignore me until her business hours and spend time with her family... She only sometimes listened We always felt like a priority and she never made me feel like a crazy bride... Even though I'm sure I was. Sidebar, in the middle of all the craziness (before COVID) I asked Lori to plan an anniversary trip as a surprise for my parents and she planned and organized an amazing unforgettable trip for them that changed their minds completely about international travel. They are now big fans. If you are on the hunt for a travel planner that can help you organize your dream trip, whether it's a vacation for 2 or a large group, look no further. CALL LORI. You will thank me.

The packages are caterered to land into Madinah first, completely bypassing jeddah altogether along with the requirement of landing in the state of Ihram. With a direct red-eye flight from chicago to jordan, then straight into Madina, the amount of time 'wasted' at airport transit times are reduced only to two hours in Amman. We reach Madina just in time for Tahajjud, with the hotels being right across from the Haram. When it is time to leave for Hajj, we get into Ihram and make Niyyah in Madina then depart for Makkah via Jeddah. Although the American tents are located almost 40 minute walk from Jamarat, it is not too bad. They served food at three meals a day throughout. We got into Arafat before Sunrise, and found a very nice spot for our tents, which we stayed for the course of the day. Leaving for Arafah this early immediatly after offering out Fajr Salaah, this alleviated getting stuck in any traffic that we heard nightmares about, and we left Arafah after 10pm and on the way to Muzdalifah, the same was observed as we made it in only 30 minutes time. The group areas are divided by maktab, or tent numbers which we are assigned upon arrival to Mina, and this kept things very organized in terms of our occupied areas. On the 13th of Zulhijjah, we came back to Makkah and stayed at top five star Zam Zam towers, which was first rated, right across gate #1, bab abdul-aziz for four days. IN general from what was heard amongst other groups, this group really went out of their way to make sure our comfort was not jeopardized, and although Hajj, is Hajj, this group made it so one of our main pillars of Islam was offered in the best possible way. Highly recommended!
