She really understood what we wanted our trip to feel like and took care of all the logistics so we could just enjoy ourselves. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and she was always quick to respond to any questions. Planning was stress-free, and the trip turned out exactly how we hoped. We would definitely recommend Erika to anyone planning a trip!

Wonderful Mackinac and Much More I took a trip with Tours of…read moreDistinction that hit all the high spots. Our first stop was at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and we were left to explore this fabulous museum at our own pace, I enjoyed that because there were certain eras of music I liked better than others. The next day our tour guide gave us the lay of the land and we got to spend the whole day at Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford Museum, it was great because again, we had the flexibility to see things at our own pace. After that, we headed to Mackinac Island - for me the highlight of the trip. The boat ride went smoothly so did the horse and carriage rides around the island and lunch at the Grand Hotel was amazing. Again, the best thing about this portion of the trip was that after our horse and carriage guided tour and lunch at the Grand Hotel, we had plenty of time to go shopping for fudge. The surprise of the trip was Frankenmuth known as America's Little Bavaria - what fun we had there in a German-styled restaurant. The cool part of this trip was seeing Niagra Falls from the Canadian side. I liked this trip because it included a wide variety of top attractions and left me with enough free time to explore on my own. Our tour leader was knowledgeable, told us to order white fish on Mac Island, and was very familiar with all the attractions. She even brought the movie, Somewhere in Time to show on one of the long motorcoach rides to catch the bus to Mackinac Island. The food was good, the best was the buffet at the grand hotel, family style in Frankenmuth was also a treat - the chicken was delicious. If you are looking to see a variety of attractions with enough time left over to explore on your own, this trip packs a lot of bang for the buck. Date of experience: June 14, 2024

5/10/2026 update. The owner removed all his crazy rants from last night but I have screenshots…read more Sure hope that attorney contacts me. Original review 5/9/2026: Finishing up a tour of Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Taos. Our tour was substandard...... the biggest issue was the accommodations. The hotel in the itinerary was the La Fonda. We ended up at El Sendero. La Fonda has a 4.6 rating. El Sendero has a 3.3. They are in no way comparable. The El Sendero is basically a motel. La Fonda is a beautiful historical high end hotel with restaurants, shops, art.... The other issue was meals. Breakfast every day was an inedible joke. And on day 5, lunch was supposed to be included but we were "on our own". Additionally, plans changed with no warning. And some of the outings made no sense....... And our tour guide had never been to the area. We did have local tour guides for a couple of outings but we would have missed major historical landmark (Chimayo). We were within a mile of this pilgrimage site and only went because a lady on the tour asked.... This is a buyer beware situation. And.....when we have expressed our dismay to Elizabeth at Tours of Distinction all we get is defensiveness. 5/9/2026: Response to managers response: Pics attached are the two hotels. Clearly not comparable. Wish I had read these reviews before I booked. And again, the responses from the manager are ridiculous. Our "breakfast" was provided by the Chinese restaurant next to el sendero. The owner of the restaurant was very nice but had no idea how to do a breakfast. Nasty eggs, burnt bacon, chopped up hot dogs, burnt hash browns. And yes, my sister and I suggested fruit might be a nice option. We DID go to Chimayo church....it was added to the itinerary because a lady on the tour knew about it and the bus driver knew it was right next to the restaurant we were going to. They drove us 1.5 hours to go to a weaving shop in Chimayo but the church was not on the itinerary because their planning and research lacks any local knowledge. Every single person on this tour was unhappy. We made the most of it but would never recommend this company. Later on 5/9: And now they've just resorted to childish behavior.... On my sister's review saying "fyi, no one liked either of you". What idiots. So they are not only incompetent and unprofessional, they're stupid too. I have a lovely thank you card and gift from one of the other travelers as she appreciated me doing a Walgreens run for her as she was sick. The other travelers are the only reason this trip was even tolerable. Anyone who wants to look further - check out the "mentions" in Facebook. Make sure you look at Tours of Distinction Connecticut. They've had complaints from local tour drivers that they don't get paid their gratuities. Hopefully lots of people read this. I'm done but any discerning traveler can tell from the company's responses that they shouldn't be in business. To make it easier I shared the FB mentions. Now they are threatening us with a lawyer. Good. We have email addresses for every single person on the trip. Every single thing we have said is true. No one was happy. The company could have acknowledged and addressed the issues and the reviews could come down.

I am adopted "unfortunately" because my parents could not have kids of their own. Because of this with all my documents and paperwork I had correct Karen could not fill it because she "couldn't read it" even though it's in English as I am in fact a US Citizen. Enter Jennifer with a very condescending attitude and fake customer service voice she told me I could not use their location even though it is not listed on the AAA website nor the DMV website that they cannot process my Real ID here. They had a makeshift sign on their door which I'm convinced they printed from Microsoft Word also did not note I could not process this here because I AM IN FACT a US citizen by adoption. And then Karen mentioned because my original birth certificate is in Spanish I can go to the DMV because they'd have someone I could "talk to there in Spanish" and I'm literally speaking English to her, I don't even know another language. So not only is Karen extremely rude she is also a racist. I would never recommend this AAA for this town or surrounding towns because of these two unprofessional and racist women. This AAA makes up their own rules and pick and chose what to process.

We had a very disappointing experience using AAA Travel to book a trip for a large extended family…read moregroup. Communication was lacking, decisions were made without our approval, and overall the process was not seamless. Our agent, Arshi, made a major mistake when booking our return flights by splitting up our group and separating minor children from their parents. It would have been one thing if families were kept together on different flights, but having children booked separately from their parents was completely unacceptable. In addition, some of the children were booked in business class while some of the adults were in coach, which was another example of a lack of attention to detail and decisions being made without our input. We then had to pay additional money to correct an error that should never have happened in the first place. We chose to use a travel agent because we expected expertise and careful planning. We didn't think we would need to explicitly state that children should fly with their parents. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I would not recommend using AAA Travel.
