She makes you feel like you have a supportive planning friend rather than a typical travel agent. Jen helped us plan our anniversary getaway and everything was seamless!

She brought peace to my mind and me and my family had the best time ever in Hawaii for my daughter's graduation celebration. We flew down to Waikiki and spent five days there. She set us up with such detailed planning and we had so much fun. Zero stress. Which is unheard of for me lol. I would recommend her for all your travel needs like literally everything she's a godsend!

I hadn't ever used a travel agent before, so I quickly jumped online to find a reliable one. Rachel was so attentive, detail-oriented, and extremely helpful. We chose Costa Rica and were able to still use the plane tickets we originally bought (just changed the location!). I had 1,000 questions since it was my first time booking through an agent, and she never once made me feel like an inconvenience or ignorant. She responded promptly to my emails, and even responded on the weekend! I can't say enough great things about her. We look forward to booking future vacations through VIP and definitely will be asking for Rachel again :)

It is a huge plus that our travel agent has a lot of insight on what to expect and quality of location. When our vacation ends, my family feels like the trip was worth every penny. I highly recommend Vacations in Paradise to any person or family looking for a great getaway. The knowledge and work the travel agent does, take a whole bunch of stress and uncertainty away.

She was excellent in handling all the airfare, cruise staterooms, handicap/ADA assistance for my mom and all airport/cruise/hotel private transfers! Everything she did went flawlessly! There were a few unforeseen/unplanned issues at airport transfers/handicap issues but I'd hire Diana to put correct and she would! If you ever want an excellent travel agent Diana is the one! Bit of background on me- I met Diana and her husband on a recent cruise and exchanged info just in case but usually I book cruises myself (this is the 30th) and Mom wanted a heavy Adratic cruise and I wasn't finding much.. I remember Diana and reached out to her- she found several options in a day and followed through given all my requests. Diana follows through and is always super attentive and delivers!

After this meeting, Diana gave us 3 trip options. We chose one of these options.

Since that vacation we will always use Cruise Holidays for our Cruise vacations going forward. Larry in Austin, Tx

We had such an amazing time on Lake Travis thanks to Willo and Float On. Everything about the…read moreexperience was extremely streamlined from booking to filling out waivers to navigating to the marina. Willo gave superb instructions on operating and piloting the boat including an overview of relevant customs and laws while out on the water. Our group had six adults and one 2-year old and they had plenty of water safety devices for all ages. On a side note, it was wonderful to see how genuinely excited Willo was about Lake Travis once again having a healthy water level after several dry years. In terms of our experience on the lake, we got excellent advice on where to travel based on our team's interests and after following his directions it felt like we had arrived on our own private lake. We probably only saw a handful of other boats during our 3-hour excursion and that was only in passing. The boat came with a Garmin GPS that made it really easy to retrace our steps. For those wondering, there was excellent cell phone service out on the lake and we were able to use our phone GPS, make calls, and stream music. The boat had some nice integrated speakers with Bluetooth connectivity and we were able to jam out to our own tunes. There was also a cool flotation device attached to the back of the boat called the Aqua Lily Pad which we unrolled after anchoring, we had multiple adults laying on it without sinking into the lake. Overall, we could not have asked for a better experience and we would highly recommend booking with Float On.

We took the adventure tour today to do something special on Valentine's Day…read more It was so very busy! Our tour guide was Tom and he was so informative and fun and kind. He had sweet little stories for all the children. He was very knowledgeable. I learned that he has been going to that cave his entire life, he even took his dates there and he's probably a grandpa now. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Our group was probably 25 people. They had a group descending every 20 minutes. It was quite interesting. The cave actually goes underneath the 35 freeway! We paused and listened and it sounded like lightning as the cars passed over the top. There's an old ladder inside where explorers used to climb down into the cave. That same ladder is on the side of the freeway just like a half mile down inside of a black shed. Nobody knows what's there without taking this tour. They have a beautiful gift shop with lots of wonderful things to buy. They take a photo of each party along the tour and to buy that photo is only $13! They have three different tours to choose from. The adventure tour was one hour. Then they have a 90 minute tour and a 3 1/2 hour tour. The one hour tour that we took was 1 mile long. The terrain is up and down and sometimes slippery so wear your good walking shoes with tread. When you get down to the very bottom, it's pretty warm so don't overdress. Layer with a hoodie that you can tie around your waist. This is not a place for anyone who can't walk a mile on varied terrain--No wheelchairs no strollers, nothing like that. I look forward to going back and taking the longer tour. Every employee that I spoke to was so very kind and helpful. I really like this place. I highly recommend you visit!

This was more interesting and fascinating than I thought. I enjoyed my tour with Myles…read more The parking lot is very large. Plenty of parking. The tour to the cave is about a mile round trip. I don't think you can take kids strollers on the tour. And you should be in capable condition to walk the distance. The walk back is more upward, some areas are steep. It is humid as you get down, which I thought it would be cool underground. I had curly hair going in, came out with straight frizzy hair. The tour guide stops along the way and talks about the rocks, the forms, and some extra surprises along the way. The guide will also take a photo of you and your group, and you can purchase the picture at the end when you go back to the gift shop. Myles was a great tour guide. He explained everything so well. Answered questions we had. Friendly and knowledgeable. Was a very nice hour or so tour. Well worth the time and drive there. Happy I did something new and a little adventurous.

If you are new to Austin or just visiting - and you like to run, I would highly recommend these…read moretours! The route chosen was perfect to show off areas of Austin you would not normally see... plus the leader was full of fun facts about the city. It made the run go really fast! Also, all of the people who generally do runs like these are very nice and social, so it's a great way to meet new people! The only thing that would keep me from doing more of these runs, is that if you are already very familiar with Austin, then it's hard to justify the price for a run you could do on your own. But it's worth it if you're looking for camaraderie!

Our tour guide took time at every location to thoroughly go through all of the "Haunted Tales" and give all of the background information. It was definitely an interesting and unique tour that would be a big miss if you come to Austin and didn't take this tour. My favorite location was the second stop, which is now an Indian restaurant. I don't want to give too much away, but this felt the most haunted of the locations. It took about 2 1/2 hours-ish so plan accordingly.
