We are 4 seasoned, high end world travelers from both coasts of the USA…read more Tor planned a trip to Iceland for us that fulfilled our dreams. He did not ask for money up front and edited our itinerary as needed. You have to put on your "big boy pants" and tell Tor what you want and don't want in a tour, and he delivers! You of course must proofread your itinerary and ask questions by text, phone and email and that is how you get a life changing adventure. He obviously picked the best hotels and restaurants, but what was stellar, was his careful selection of people and places that we were so hospitably treated to. We were guided by an architect and outdoorsman, named Waldi, who is one of Iceland's many, especially beautiful people, who date their Icelandic families back to the original 7! We flew by private helicopter to the top of E15, the world famous volcano that erupted and sent ash veiling Europe in 2010. Gisli Gislison, our helicopter pilot, a friendly modern day Viking, soared us through a visual extravaganza in the sky! He made our tour a personal and mind blowing trek onto a cloud ringed glacier with fresh perfect snow in the stratosphere! We shuffled through a pristine white field on a volcano peak glacier in the sky to the edge of everything...where blue snow and the bluest horizon met in silence and purest sunlight . He deftly soared us over the island as if we were riding in a convertible on a Sunday afternoon, laughing and pointing at his favorite childhood spots for a view of boiling streams, frolicking Rams, smoking vents, hot rivers, and sea lions basking in azure waters (who dived and rolled for us when we buzzed closely over head). He pointed out his favorite sea side lobster restaurant, GIANT ELVES, Icelandic horses, lava fields and treated us to a colossal mosaic of colored ice, land and sea creating unimaginable art that we had never heard described and that was a sparkling spectacle forever indelible in our memories. Tor sent us into the wilderness of "SNIFFLESNEEZE" as we fondly called the Icelandic name for a national park, on the western peninsula. We stayed in a fantastic small gourmet hotel featured in a mystery on the NETFLIX series "THE LAVA FIELD". The food was amazing, the SUMMER sun never set on this iddillic country manor , with freely roaming sheep, fields of wild flowers that put Monet to shame, and an antique church with its quaint and beautiful graveyard that told stories of struggles love and loss in a small heroic community. We took a space aged trek into the world's only man made ice caves, burrowed by industrious farmers and colored by hidden lights. Our guide was a singing performance artist whose angelic voice echoed Icelandic ballads off the dripping catacomb. The vehicle that conveyed us was a ginormous converted Russian Missile launcher with 5 foot wide deflatable wheels (they have an app for that!) Should you book a tour with Tor? I SAY YOW BEST OF ALL, we sat at our hotel 101 window and cheered with the joyous country as they clapped and stomped their war cry approval to a world first victory cup over Great Britain in football.

We could have done better with Expedia. He found no better flights than we found. When we asked…read morehim about booking connections for transportation from airports to hotels or from Rome to Florence. He said he could do that . . . for a price. And the hotel he booked for us in Rome was a $30 cab ride each way between the hotel and any of the major tourist attractions. When we got there, we contacted Tor, who told us it was our fault for not checking in advance. What did we need a travel agent for, if not for things like making sure we were well located?!

We have used LST, specifically Terri Netzel for trips to Belize, Mexico, Italy, Thailand and most…read morerecently South Africa. Each of those places has its' own subtle challenges while traveling that were all overcome by Terri and LST. We arrived at each location and were greeted by someone who knew our itinerary and handled everything from transportation to check in and out. As we have gotten to know Terri we now are able to describe the trip we are looking for and our budget while she then creates a dream travel experience. I cannot recommend highly enough the professional service that is offered. If you have a destination in mind but are like me, a bit apprehensive to get out of your comfort zone, call Terri and she will get you there and back without having a single worry. She has truly turned me into a "traveler" because I can focus on the moment and experiences and nothing else because she has handled it all, for that I will be forever thankful.

After reaching out to multiple agents at Lake Shore Travel to be able to communicate with them or…read morethe owner (who I could not find the name of) about our trip and poor experience with Shonah Rabman, no one would respond and therefore we feel pushed for our voices to be heard through some channel in order to prevent others from making the same mistake we did. Like many of the poor reviews below, Lake Shore Travel, specifically working with Shonah Rabman was a horrible experience. I should start with the fact that I have never written a yelp review in my life, but I felt the need to save others from using this agency and this specific agent. As a business owner myself, I wanted to resolve this over the phone with Lake Shore but I have tried reaching out via phone / email over the past couple of weeks and no one will return my call. Therefore - I urge you to read this before using this agency: Shonah's inattention to detail, inconsiderate tone, avoidance to plan our trip after we already paid, last minute changes, and overall condescending/gaslighting messages to us were horrible to work with. We were going to 5 locations on this 2-week trip that we began having her plan over a year in advance for. We needed someone to help us pick out 5 star hotels and private tours. Shonah could not have cared less about our trip, the details, and us as clients. She avoided planning our trip for over 6 months, and when considerately addressing to her that we haven't heard from her on any details of our trip (so we could start planning ahead) she yelled at us over the phone stating she has other clients and we were bothering her. We asked Shonah to help assist us in booking restaurants as the location we were going to frequently does not take reservations over apps (mostly reassertions over emails and calls in the native language). This was 5 months before our trip. She agreed over email multiple times she would be happy to do this. One month before our trip after, she finally shared with us it was up to us to find restaurants for a 14-day trip, but she would do it anyways as a 'courtesy'. Again, another thing that should have been communicated to us and we felt misled once again. The week of our trip (after weeks of trying to get our final itinerary/ documents from Shonah) she finally stopped ignoring us and anxiously requested we answer a bunch of questions within 24 hours that she needed to verify because she left everything until the last minute. We downloaded our app, got our itinerary, and none of us could open our documents... as they were encrypted. We call Shonah up, explaining that the documents she uploaded to the app were encrypted. Again, she yells at us letting us know that it's our fault we can't see the documents, there's nothing she can do, and she quickly hangs up. Extremely unprofessional. Feeling helpless, we call Axus (the app's helpine) where, they told us our travel agent did not upload the documents correctly, and Shonah needed to upload the documents as PDF's for us to view them. A mistake on her end. We forwarded her the emails, and she responded "always learning something new - I will re-upload them." Again, no apology for the way she spoke to us over the phone, no accountability, nothing. Again, we were doing her job for her and we felt extremely disrespected / scared to communicate with her moving forward. We had emailed Shonah two months before we left to confirm she had input our TSA numbers (we paid extra for her to book our flights) and that we would not have a problem. We get to the airport - TSA numbers are not on our ticket. I wish I could write everything that went wrong, but Yelp has a limit. Other things that went wrong: all dinner reservations were either not made, made for the wrong time, or made for the wrong day. Made for Spain is the travel agency that Lake Shore connects with to book trips. We stopped going through Shonah and began corresponding with Maria from Made for Spain who is INCREDIBLE. She texted with us back and forth to help 'fix' Shonah's mistakes throughout the trip. She also continued to check in via text throughout the trip to make sure everything was running smoothly, and she responded within minutes of me writing her. About me: This is the first and most likely last yelp review I will ever write in my life. As a business owner who is client facing 24/7, I can confirm that if someone on my team acted the way Shonah has acted, I would be extremely alarmed. I pride myself on kindness, respect, and generosity towards people's time and money. Her attitude, frequent inattention to detail, condescending tone over the phone, and lack of respect / patience was disheartening to clients like us who were overly conscientious in having someone book a 14-day vacation (a time where we were excited to relax and have things run smoothly) with clear directions. I would stay away from Shonah Rabman and furthermore I would probably stay away from this travel company.
