She ended up placing three holes for $500 on my checking account. There was suppose to be one $500 charge, a $2940, and a $2130 charge. AFTER THE CRUISES WERE PID OFF, two days later a second $500 is taken out of my checking account! They claim that they can't see the payment on their system. They claimed this the first time and that's why an ignorant representative charged me $500 four times before all was said and done. Inwas told the rep screwed up and the first $500 "was left hanging" in their system. Now I have another $500 hanging in their system that they have to find. Their computer program is outdated. They only collect $500 and the rest goes to Carnival Cruises. Lessened learned! I only used them because I have an older week deeded timeshare that I had to convert to points and trade. I had to biy a membership to do this!

They were friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful from the very beginning of planning through the entire journey. They created a seamless, perfectly paced itinerary that included wonderful city tours throughout Italy and amazing landmark visits like the Colosseum, Vatican, Pompeii, and the Acropolis, plus a cruise to visit the stunning Greek islands and beaches. Our drivers were professional and reliable, the tour guides were excellent and engaging, and the centrally located apartments were comfortable and convenient. Kristie and Garrett stayed responsive and supportive the whole time, making everything effortless. We couldn't have planned such a memorable and smooth vacation without their help. We've already recommended them to friends and can't wait to book with them again. Highly recommend! Thank you both!

The highlights were seen orchids and other wildlife up close, cruising past massive glaciers, and icebergs, and getting off the ship for expedition activities that made the experience feel immersive instead of touristy. The naturalist and the crew were knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about Alaska. One of the most memorable parts was the cold plunge, freezing, but absolutely worth it for the experience.

With over 100 guests, from over a dozen states, she went out of her way to make dozens of changes in party size, altering accommodations, etc. and all done with a great attitude (and often answering emails while she was out of the office). We could not have asked for better care and personalized service. . Kerri came highly recommended by a dear friend after I had several dismal calls with other agents who were slow to respond or tried pressuring me into places we had no interest in. Kerri was always available, thorough, had great insights to so many properties, that she and Sun loved we're our clear choice from our second email exchange. . Our experience was seamless and felt very cared for every step of the way. They even sent us the sweetest most personalized gift basket during our stay from all local businesses, not to mention a show-stopping flower arrangement! It was extremely thoughtful and unexpected. We can't wait to user Kerri and her team for our next international travel adventures! So thankful for the trip of a lifetime thanks to Kerri and Sun Lover!

Updating my review after talking to the bride: I am a…read morecontent creator, so a publicist has always handled my hotel reservations--literally for a decade. I'm used to people going above and beyond. I only used Kerry because I was a bridesmaid and she was the travel agent involved. If you're thinking about using Kerry, know that she will get the job done--100%! I booked the room, paid her for it, and had no issues. The transfer went perfectly, and her emails and advice were accurate. However, I later found out she didn't get me the best price. She even offered to price match, which tells me she knew she wasn't offering the lowest rate. I feel a bit ripped off. It was a significant price difference--not just $100. So, if you're considering using her, be aware that she will get you a group rate, but not necessarily the best rate. I was also annoyed that she didn't automatically secure or offer early check-in. She knew we were arriving early and that we had a young child in tow (we didn't end up bringing her, but she didn't know that). She should have anticipated this and gone the extra mile. The wedding was at a large resort, and we were checking in on a Wednesday--not exactly a peak travel day. While I should have thought about this myself, I'm used to it being taken care of, so I didn't even think to ask. She didn't even offer! I felt like this was lazy. So, if you just want the job done, go with Kerry. She won't disappoint on that front. But, If you want the best travel agent and the lowest price, go with someone else.

I hope this review helps someone else out…read more I got a call from their call center to come in for a presentation in an exchange for two roundtrip tickets anywhere in the domestic US and 2 night accommodation. I thought it was a good deal and why not? However, before I agreed, I asked what fees are my responsibilities if we decide to take them up on their offer; they said just the taxes. I said - ok! They also offered a $300 dining gift card. Just lies. I went to the presentation and they gave me 2 vouchers. 1) the airfare/hotel -- there were 23 locations to fly to. To redeem the voucher, there was a $50 non-refundable processing fee. Then the terms and conditions which I'll include at the bottom of this. Short version is you can only check in on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday and there is a fee of $199 per person to cover taxes, etc based on double occupancy which means... if you went by yourself, you'd pay $398. 2) The dining certificate is for $300 spread over 12 months. So you're getting a $25 voucher each month and to redeem the voucher, there was a $14.95 non-refundable processing fee. So I wasted a couple of hours to drive there and listen to their schpiel.

I had plans in Paris and have to change them. When we arrived at CDG Airport from Mexico City, our group of 15 people had to wait up to two hours to be picked up, even after making several calls. The next morning, our tour guide, Angela, seemed stressed and started yelling at us. That's not the way anyone should begin a vacation--being scolded by the guide. We took the "Hola Europa" tour, and I honestly don't recommend it. In the smaller cities, we only stopped for an hour or two at most--just enough time to stretch our legs, take a few pictures, and look for a bathroom. There was barely any time to explore. The driver, Petrov, and Luisa, our guide on the last day, were very kind and professional. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lot of miscommunication between Europamundo and the agencies that sell their tours. I booked through Sears, and in my opinion, it wasn't worth it.
