We could have an appointment next week (we're leaving in three days), we were told, or we could drive 1+ hours to another location. If we did that to them, they would charge us each $75. Think they'll pay the bill if we send one to them? After reading the other reviews, I'm just as happy we're not dealing with them.

I asked one of the agents at Adler Travel to help me book a trip to Madrid and Paris so that my…read moredaughter, an art student, could see the great museums. The agent did competently book flights and hotels, and I'm choosing to see that as a "glass half-full". But she needed a couple of reminders and she took a couple weeks longer than she said she would. And really, in a world where we all have TripAdvisor, I'm not sure that saved me more than 4 or 5 hours versus doing it on my own. Where I really could have used help, there was none. I was very clear about the purpose of the trip and the museums we intended to visit. Those museums are currently deluged with tourists and all now require booking time slots weeks in advance. If we had shown up without pre-booked tickets, we would have been turned away, negating the entire purpose of the trip and wasting thousands of dollars. This kind of information - learned from personal trips to the destination or previous bookings - is the real added value a travel agent should provide. Our agent provided none. Luckily for us, I learned about the need for pre-booking from Rick Steves' books before it was too late to get in. It was too late to get the time-slots we wanted, however. Some of the slots were decidedly inconvenient. A few weeks' earlier start would have been extremely helpful - a heads-up from the agent would have made a huge difference. Our agent was simply MIA after the initial bookings. She did finally respond to an email requesting help booking flights from Madrid to Paris - after I'd already booked them myself - with apologies about missing my email in her very full inbox. I had to do all of the research and booking for the museums myself, something that took many hours. Every agency has multiple agents with different levels of experience and enthusiasm for the job. Adler has a good enough local reputation that I'm sure some of the other agents are more helpful. But my experience with my agent was not great. I credit Rick Steves for a successful trip, not my agent. If I hadn't checked those books, it would have been a complete fiasco.

My husband and I were referred to John at Adler Travel by a friend when planning our honeymoon…read more Neither of us have traveled very much, and honestly the thought of sorting through thousands of different options, and then planning flights in the midst of wedding planning did not seem apealing. Luckily, John made everything beyond easy! We went in for a meeting with a few key ideas: all inclusive, on the beach, adults only. After a few more questions John quickly came up with several options. He made the process even easier by reserving everything for us, and telling us what to expect at each step of our travels. We had the BEST TIME in Mexico at El Dorado Maroma! Completely stress free vacation, exactly like we wanted :) We can not wait to go back and plan our next vacation through Adler Travel!

But they fly no frills, not even a bottle of water to give passengers when they're stuck on a plane for an hour after landing like our current situation. It's very hard for a flight full of people to land and have to sit on the tarmac for over an hour because they don't have enough space for us to park. Figure it out! There are animals and children aboard going crazy. People are in tears and it's a very stressful, unhappy situation and I won't be returning to Avelo any time soon.

When you pay 7k for a trip you at least expect a call back. No one cared. Terrible experience.
