Never before have I been spoken to in such a condescending tone. Read on if interested: It started with an aggressive "los gatos travel" which sounded very rude and like I was bothering them. I then described the vacation we are planning, she paused, and then asked "well have you worked with us before?" I said no we have not. She then asked "okay, were you referred by someone?" I also said no we were not. She then said "how did you hear about us?" The tone on this question sounded like she was surprised we were able to reach them without having been referred. I said that I found them on yelp since they had great reviews. She then said "okay to be honest with you a client who we've never worked with and also does not know anyone who has worked with us I don't think we can take on a brand new client right now we have been in business x years and this would probably not be possible." This one was a little surprising since I was planning this a year in advance. She then said "I assume you have never worked with a travel agent before" to which I said that I have actually several times before. This is when I got upset. She said she would "send me an email for me to send dates and maybe go from there" and I responded that I was not interested in working with their business and expressed my displeasure with the interaction. Might sound dramatic but I think this was the worst interaction I have ever had with a local business. It's a shame because I was planning to give them a significant amount of business only to be turned away because of her ego. Hopefully all of you have a better experience.

Attention to detail is the quality most important to me in a travel agent, and Brittany left no stone unturned. She carefully catalogued my needs and preferences, asked questions about factors that hadn't occurred to me, walked me though the pros and cons of various options, and found an itinerary that was a good fit for me. A plus was that business class cost me less than I thought it would. She followed up with the airline to make sure my trip was recorded correctly in their system. Brittany is proactive in offering help and advice and stays in touch throughout the process - she's responsive and gets back to you quickly. Her cheerful and reassuring demeanor takes much of the stress out of trip planning. I look forward to working with her again. Highly recommended.

Biksee stated that she would get back to us, but several days passed without any word. We attempted to text and to call her personal cell but did not get a response.

Goldrush Getaways is not for everyone but if you travel they have great deals and commissions In essence, you are buying a business just like you would a franchise, or any other business. Many people set up their own websites and expand their travel agency. There is a learning curve but that is nothing new. Goldrush is not a scam. It is a reputable travel agency recognized by cruise lines, train travel, and every other imaginable tour. They tell you this in their presentation and they do not pressure sale you. It is nothing like timeshares, but if you like traveling, I highly recommend taking a look at Goldrush Getaways. Item of note: If you sign up for yourself, you may find yourself booking travel for family, friends, friends of friends and the list goes on. When people find out you are a travel agent, they want to find out what you have to offer and the commissions you earn are not bad either.

Word to the wise: I'm pretty sure the other review for Peak Travel on Yelp is from our travel…read moreagent, Erin Morse. First of all (read: before I begin with the bad part of this review), Erin was super helpful and friendly. She obviously was really familiar with Asia and her enthusiasm was infectious. When I initially called interested in visiting Europe in August, she suggested Asia instead because Europe is much more expensive that month (and partially closed down). It was an idea that sorta made sense... for Thailand anyway. Thailand is always hot so there's no good time to visit. Japan, on the other hand ended up being was just as hot and humid since we ended up visiting the worst month of the year. We'd never used a travel agent before and thought people used them to save money on travelling. We were very misinformed. We figured that we spend about $2000 more on our honeymoon than we needed to - mostly on hotel rooms. I thought Thailand in particular would be a cheap country to visit but it wasn't with Peak Travel. We would find cheap (but really good quality) hotels on asiarooms.com but our agent said she felt like she couldn't trust the site as much as going through the hotel directly. (I assume it was actually because Peak wouldn't receive a cut from the hotel.) Our agent suggested many tours and we didn't know better that we could have been just as happy or happier exploring on our own. The tours on the Japan portion of our trip were good. The Thailand part of our trip was a disappointment tour-wise. The Siam Nirarit dinner and dancing show was a snore (an expensive snore, too). We felt like the tour to the Golden Palace and Emerald Buddha were unneeded since it would have been easy to explore this complex on our own. Also, the tour conveniently dropped us off at a gem store (the big scam in Bangkok we were to find out since every tuk tuk driver wanted to take us to these, too) in order for us to catch a shuttle back to our hotel. Anyway, the gem store involvement made the tour group seem shady. Also, they arrived 45 minutes late for our tour and claimed they'd called ahead to tell us - then IN FRONT OF US we saw them quietly call the hotel to leave us a message to say they'd be late. Erin did recommend Ko Samui, and that ended up being our favorite part of the trip. However, I really can't recommend the Ko Samui monkey show that Erin had been to that must have changed a lot since she'd seen it. Basically it was the world's worst animal show (for $9/person, too!) where the trained monkeys only did their tricks half the time and the other half involved the monkeys selling candy to visitors for money. Might I mention that the monkeys failed at doing their tricks about half the time, too, and chose to defecate on the stage instead. Since their tricks involved pretending to play a guitar and standing on the heads of visitors I really can't blame them. The good thing about going through an agent is that ours coordinated everything. Travelling from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji and Hakone and then via bullet train to Kyoto might have been a little complicated for us to plan. I guess Peak Travel did a good job. I just would never use them again. I definitely recommend forming your own itinerary using tripadvisor and discount hotel room websites like asiarooms.com and skipping the travel agent.
