If you're looking for a fantastic vacation experience, use E. Clarke Travel. My husband and I just returned from a trip to the French and Italian Riviera with our three daughters and their families--8 adults and 4 little children. The trip involved months of planning, and E. Clarke Travel was by my side the entire time. Hundreds of emails later, they handled every suggestion and change with incredible patience and kindness. They knew exactly what was needed to make the trip relaxing, adventurous, and fun for everyone in our group. They recommended restaurants and made dinner reservations for 12 every night, and when I asked for changes they rebooked without hesitation. We asked them to arrange a private boat for the day with a fun captain and food and drinks on board--everything was perfect. The boat day was one of the highlights of our trip, and all 12 of us agree. I can't say enough wonderful things about E. Clarke Travel. Special thanks to Karen and Donna--Donna was incredible and instrumental in planning this very memorable family vacation. Highly recommended! read more

Lori Banks was great to work with. She handled all of the flights, ferries, private transfers, hotels, and logistics for our honeymoon - which made everything a breeze. It was so nice to have someone to help to organize everything. Highly recommend! read more

My family and I just returned from another fantastic vacation in Aruba that we book through Diane Scozzafava at E Clarke Travel. It was another perfect vacation. We've booked numerous trips to Aruba and other destinations through Diane (others) over the years and I've always been more than satisfied. She's always been helpful, friendly, and gracious, and super responsive when we need to change flights or vacation dates. We couldn't be happy with her services and look forward to booking many more vacations through Diane. read more

I cannot recommend this travel agency highly enough! Karen in particular is extremely knowledgeable about every destination we've considered visiting. When she was unfamiliar with a small outfitter we asked her about, she looked closely at their offering and compared it to other tour companies, pointing out the similarities and differences. You can rely on her for excellent travel advice across the board. Lori Banks, one of the agents in Closter, is an absolute gem! She patiently answers questions, looks for the best deals available, and follows through on every single detail of the trip. She ensured that every aspect of our travel was carefully planned and thoroughly enjoyable. Then she followed up afterwards for a review of our experience. You won't find anyone better if you need help planning a quick getaway or the trip of a lifetime! read more

Lori is extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented and she always follows up to make sure things are going smoothly. She is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with her and E Clarke on our next adventure! read more

Lori Banks was hands down, the best travel advisor I have ever worked with. She went over and above the call of duty, promptly fielding my questions left and right. There were a lot of moving parts to our trip and her help was invaluable. She is professional and friendly and "on it" at all times. She left no stone unturned and helped us with everything including hotels, transfers, tour guides, meals, day trips, etc. offering solid and reliable advice at every turn. We felt 100% confident that we were in good hands and look forward to planning our next trip with her! read more

I wanted to use E. Clarke Travel for this trip to Lisbon because I had been so pleased with using them for prior trips. This time did not disappoint from special planning for dinner reservations and private tours to finding the most convenient hotel for our stay. What amazed me most and confirmed how excellent the agency is was when our flight to Lisbon was cancelled the morning of the flight. After hours on the phone to the various airlines, Karen was able to get ua a flight out and change our return flights. Without her hard work and concern to find us another flight we may have had to cancel our trip. I highly recommend E. Clarke for any travel plans you may want to consider. read more

Working with Diane from E.Clarke was a pleasure. She prepared the arrangements and took care of all the details! Everything worked out great and the trip to Greece was amazing! read more

I needed help planning a trip to the Bahamas for my daughter's birthday. She has a food allergy, so I wanted make sure I stayed somewhere that could accommodate us. Diane S. was my amazing agent! Once we settled on a hotel, Diane went above and beyond working with everyone from the concierge to the culinary staff to make sure we would be taken care of. This took a number of follow-ups on Diane's end and she was relentless in her pursuit of making it happen. Upon my arrival, the concierge knew exactly who I was and made sure to show me that our restaurant reservations noted the food allergy. This gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to relax immediately. I can't thank Diane enough for all of her assistance and I would highly recommend E Clarke Travel for your trip. read more

E Clarke goes above and beyond to assure that all aspects of your trip will go smoothly and when something unexpected happens, like a cancelled flight in a foreign country at 1AM in the morning... you can call them, not have to wait on hold with airline representatives, and get a quick resolution to get you home. This happened to us, and Karen was able to get my wife and I home when others were still stuck waiting for the airlines to resolve the issue. Thank you so much E Clarke your service is amazing. read more

Wahid was helpful, incredible helpful. He organized my trip to France, and the rent of a car. He did not hesitate to send me emails with the latest news of the company because of the Covid. Wahid speaks French which is a must. I am going to use Eclarke for my next trip. No hesitation. Thanks Wahid. read more

My wife and I were interested in traveling to the Dominican Republic, as this destination was highly recommended by some close friends in are neighborhood that recently went. We did have several questions so I thought it would be prudent to utilize a travel agent. E Clark Travel had good reviews when I looked them up using the google on my home computer so I decided to call the next morning promptly at 8am when they opened (might have been 9am, I just don't recall but I did remember setting my alarm clock to ensure I was the first one to call in) My initial concerns were cost and security. I had actually thought the Dominican Republic was located in Mexico and when I asked "how strong the US dollar was to the Mexican dollar" the staff was somewhat confused with the inquiry but then They informed me that In fact that the Dominican Republic was it's own island They provided me with several cost options and a tremendous amount of very helpful travel Info. Let me tell you, I do not respond and write many reviews however these guys were great. We had a fantastic stay and I would highly recommend them to my friends and family Regards Rick read more

Technology is great, but when it comes to travel the human touch is still essential. I just booked my 50th birthday trip with E Clarke Travel and not only was the experience easy, but it was actually enjoyable. They have the friendliest staff with the most keen attention to detail. E Clarke Travel has many years of experience as well as a proven track record. Now with my most recent and very positive experience here (and my frustration with the long hold times with the airlines), I simply can't imagine ever attempting to book another trip online! read more

We are picky travelers and Karen really understood our wants and needs. We loved the hotel she recommended to us in Italy. Everything was taken care of for us when we landed and we were thrilled with her services. We highly recommend Karen and will definitely book future trips with her. read more

Love this travel agency. My family uses the Closter location. My parents have used them to book vacations to Belize, Costa Rica, Brazil and a cruise around Cape Horn (mostly with Jolie and also Karen). My husband and I used Jolie to book cruises to Alaska and the Panama Canal, and we used Karen to book a trip to Peru/Machu Picchu and the rainforest. The cruises were great, but they really excel with the vacations! We never had to worry about anything and felt totally taken care of. Someone met us at each arrival and departure, we had guides to drive us around and transport us and the hotels and food were all top-notch! They work with your desires and your budget. It was the most luxurious way to visit Peru and saved us from all the planning! I would not hesitate to use them for future vacations! read more

I've known Michele for many years, so I trusted her to help me plan the wedding trip of a lifetime to Italy and a cruise to Greece. She came through BIG TIME. Our trip and cruise were amazing, she got us some fantastic pricing, and then during the trip when there were the inevitable flight delays and short layovers, she was on the phone with us at midnight her time to help make sure we got where we needed to be on time. Thanks Michele.. Our amazing Italian wedding was a success, and would not have been without your help! You rock! read more

Deanna and the entire staff at E Clarke Travel in Closter, NJ are incredible. We found them randomly through the internet, so we weren't sure what to expect. We were instantly treated like family! It was clear that Deanna had our best interest at heart when helping up to plan our dream honeymoon (all within our limited budget). She was honest, caring and VERY patient. She sat with us for HOURS on multiple days and then continued helping us to plan everything, even after we had gone home. She answered all our emails and phone calls almost instantly. Could not have asked for anything more! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! We can't wait for our trip! read more

They made an awful mistake by failing to secure travel insurance. This was a serious mistake as my grandmother died because of this trip. Expenses ended up costing tens if not hundreds of thousands . They will not take any responsibility. Do not use this service. They are grossly Negligent read more

Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed working with Marlene Finkel at E. Clarke. She was awesome giving us recommendations for my wife and my recent trip to France. Three great hotel choices, including helping us get room upgrades best on our ongoing correspondence with the hotel noting that we were valued customers. Marlene also helped orchestrate our travel (flight, train, car), and gave us helpful restaurant recommendations. Overall, she was great. We'll definitely work with her and E. Clarke again. read more

My husband and I used E Clarke Travel to book our honeymoon. We happened upon them through the American Express website and gave them a shot since they were close to home and we couldn't be happier. We went through numerous ideas about what we wanted in a trip and Jolie helped us narrow in on the perfect spot. She sent us suggestions that we didn't even notice when looking online at numerous travel websites for resort ideas and had an amazing time on our Mexican honeymoon! She helped us make reservations, find out about excursions and answered every single question and email immediately. We are already in talks with Jolie to book our 6 month anniversary trip! read more

In June of this year, my husband and I and our 3 adult children planned a trip to Italy. It would have been absolutely impossible without Marlene from E. Clarke travel in Closter. Not only did she organize the flights and train trips, with different family members coming together from different places, she also made extraordinarily wonderful hotel reservations for us. We were right in the center of the action in each city we visited. Additionally, her recommendations for tours, sights, and restaurants were fantastic. Plus, she answered every question with exactly the right answer and made things work in exactly the way we wanted. She took every worry away and it could not have been a better vacation. We've worked with other people in the office as well, and you cannot go wrong there. I highly recommend not planning a trip without E. Clarke travel! read more
