My husband and I just returned from a three‑week trip through Scandinavia and Scotland organized by…read moreBravo Travel. Debby and her team took exceptional care of us from start to finish. I wanted to share what the experience felt like from my perspective. I first reached out to Debby about planning a trip to Scandinavia. After answering a few of her questions, she sent us several tour options to review. By the time we chose one, it was already fully booked -- but she immediately found an alternative. Because that second option didn't include the Norway fjords, I asked if she could arrange a separate self‑guided add‑on. We also wanted to visit our daughter in Scotland, and she also incorporated that into the itinerary. From that moment on, Debby and her team took over. She built a complete itinerary, checked in whenever decisions or payments were needed, and kept us informed throughout the planning process. A week before departure, she sent all final confirmations and even offered to meet to go over the documents. I was too busy to do that, but the travel app she uses had everything organized beautifully. I could see our day‑by‑day schedule, all reservations, and every document we needed -- and I relied on that app daily during the trip. While we were traveling, especially during the self‑guided portion, we felt genuinely cared for. Debby's choices -- hotels, transportation, logistics -- were thoughtful, convenient, and spot‑on, even when she didn't need to ask for our input. When we ran into airline issues, she was there late at night helping us sort everything out. Bravo Travel has planned our major family trips for more than 15 years now. Every time we work with Debby, we know we're going to have a wonderful experience and that someone is there to support us if anything goes wrong. Sure, it's easy to book travel on our own these days -- but the expertise, attention to detail, and personal care Debby brings to every trip are truly invaluable.

This time Masterpiece Travels did a great job helping us plan a very complex multi-part trip that included countries, Disney parks, non-disney stops and a cruise. They worked with us to meet all our needs. With them we setup the trip of a lifetime. They connected all the disparate pieces (this was not a simple all inclusive trip we worked out). It all worked perfectly. Any adjustments that happened (minor ones) while we were on the trip where communicated quickly. We had the best time and Masterpiece Travels was a huge help in making that happen.

Mary is the absolute best! She helped me plan and arrange a trip to Japan for my first vacation in…read moreyears. Everything was tailored so the trip was exactly what I was looking for: she set up multiple tours for us, found amazing hotels for us to stay at which were all very close to the tour start locations, and put in extra free time into our schedule for exploration on our own. Any request I had, she made sure it worked out, or figured out the next best thing if what we had in mind wasn't practical. I will absolutely go to Mary for any travel in the future, this trip would not have been nearly as relaxing or fun if I had set it up on my own, Mary made everything great about this trip possible!!!

We cannot thank Amy Tan enough for the truly unforgettable trip she planned for us. This was a…read morelast-minute getaway with some very unique circumstances, and Amy handled everything with such care, thoughtfulness, and expertise. She not only made it all come together seamlessly, but also saved us a few thousand dollars by choosing the perfect hotel and ideal travel dates. From the very beginning, we felt completely taken care of--and that feeling stayed with us the entire trip. What could have been stressful turned into something incredibly special. The experiences she planned were beyond anything we could have imagined. We spent our days laughing, bonding, and trying new things--ziplining through the jungle, ATVing through forests and shallow rivers, and even swimming half a mile through a breathtaking cenote. We saw dolphins and sea turtles, visited a beautiful Mayan village, and enjoyed some of the most authentic and delicious Mexican food we've ever had. There were also so many magical, unexpected moments--like spending time with monkeys and deer, and even spotting a massive wild stingray. Every day felt like something out of a dream. What meant the most to us, though, was how safe we felt the entire time. As someone who is usually a very nervous traveler, I can honestly say I felt completely at ease. Amy created an experience that was adventurous and exciting, yet always grounded in a deep sense of safety and trust. This truly was a trip of a lifetime, and we are so grateful to Amy for making it possible. Her attention to detail, her ability to understand exactly what we needed, and her genuine care for her clients set her apart in every way. We will be talking about this trip for years to come--and we cannot wait to work with her again.

Amy planned an amazing family trip to Europe a few years ago, so of course we had to go back and…read moreask her to help us again! We went to Venice, Florence, Bologna, Milan, and Mykonos. As always, Amy was courteous, professional, quick to respond, and catered the trip around its purpose, which was to celebrate a graduation. She answered all of our questions and concerns. We wanted a more relaxed trip than last time, so we opted to choose our own activities, but asked Amy to help us book them. This time we needed quite a few train tickets to navigate through Italy, and Amy chose great ones. I was stressed about our luggage and how we would watch/store it, etc, but we were able to put all our luggage above our seats and didn't have to worry about anything. Once again, Amy arranged private transfers to/from the airports/hotels for us. All of the hotels were in amazing locations within easy walking distance to great sights and great food. One of the hotels was a bit outdated, butwas built in the 1700s and is probably extremely difficult and expensive to modernize. The location was just down the street from the Duomo though. Honestly, could not get better than that. Overall, trip was so much fun and relaxing. Venice was a sleeper hit. We all wished we had more time there. Taking the vaporetto in was an experience! Very cool and convenient to take it straight to the hotel as well. It was really great to spend more time in Florence and get to wander and see the city. Some of us went to the top of the dome of the Duomo, view was amazing. The climb was intense though! Bologna food tour was incredible!!! Definitely want to go back and eat literally everything. Milan was a good pit stop and we wished we had gotten tickets to see inside the Duomo.  Mykonos was beautiful and the transfer company was great. Super nice and we used them for taxi service as well. Hotel had a free shuttle to and from Mykonos town until 9pm. The catamaran tour was beautiful, amazingly relaxing, and one of the highlights of Greece. It wasn't super windy that day, so it was basically perfect! Only bump was that 2 days before we left we were trying to check in for the flight home and it said there was an issue and talk to the travel agent. I reached out to Amy and we found out that one of the airlines we were using to get home had cancelled the flight without notifying her or us of the change. Definitely not what we wanted to hear right before we needed to fly back. But Amy was fantastic. She told us don't worry, this was why we had an agent, it was her job to worry about everything and that we just needed to enjoy our last day. Amy got back to me pretty quickly (all things considered) and had booked new flights for the 8 of us. And even though we weren't sitting 8 together, she was able to get us seats of 4 and 4 close to each other. It was still a little stressful waiting to see if we were stranded or not, but nothing in comparison to if we'd had to do all of that ourselves. Thank goodness for Amy and travel insurance!!! Another unforgettable trip; THANK YOU, Planet Hoppers.

They actually care about their customers (as opposed to other travel agencies who merely want your money). Once I was traveling to Florida from San Francisco with my wife and 2 kids in a very snowy December. We landed in Denver, unsure if we would be able to take off due to the bad snowstorms. My Travel Design agent, Shekar, called my cell phone during our layover just to make sure we were OK. He let me know that if our flight was cancelled he would find another way for us to join our family reunion for Christmas. Turns out, our flight was OK and we got out of DIA without any problems, but the fact that Shekar took the time to check on us and reassure me that we would have a fine vacation really impressed me. Travel Design also knows my travel profile and they get me the other stuff I need, like cars, hotels, meals, and discounts, without my having to ask for it. I love these guys!!! I have told all my friends to use Travel Design. They really are the best travel agency I have ever seen! Eric Malone Grass Valley, CA (formerly of San Francisco and Mountain View, CA)
