By Laurie - Alberta | Trip To: Costa Rica

Fabulous, knowledgeable and organized agent. But her best skill is discovering the kind of vacation your looking for by asking all the right questions and being truly interested in our preferences. Julianne is very skilled at what she does and is somehow able to deliver just what we're looking for every time! I have referred her to all of my friends and family and the results are the same. She is currently planning our daughters destination wedding- totally low stress for us ! Thanks julianne your the best??

By The Pelletiers - St. Albert

Julianne is an absolute gem and a pleasure to work with. She can take my vision and turn it into reality. We have travelled to Mexico and twice to Cuba with great success! I have been using her to create fun and exciting Yoga and Meditation Retreats for years and can't wait to plan the next one!

By Huck's - Tofield | Trip To: Mexico

Julianne helped us find the perfect family vacation. We were looking for somewhere safe to take our 6, yr old4, yr old and 9 month old. She found us the best deal, and walked us through every part of travelling with kids! We had an amazing time and would recommend using Julianne to all of our friends!

By Kim - Tofield Ab | Trip To: Bahamas

I loved not having to worry about any plans. Wonderful experience and within budget! Pretty much accomplished my bucket list??

By Charm - Sturgeon County | Trip To: Costa Rica

Julianne has been great to work with. She gives a very personalized service and goes out of her way to ensure your needs are met. In fact... she booked our vacation while she was away on vacation herself. She is very knowledgeable about many places to travel and was extremely versed in the current travel requirements concerning COVID. My family has used her twice now and both times she was able to get us upgraded rooms and seats on the plane for less than I could find online. Julianne has been able to provide cost saving tips for the area we went as well. She was always available to answer any questions and provides documents and recommendations for every part of the trip. Working with Julianne has been a totally different and superior experience than using a commercial travel agency in absolutely everyway. My only regret is that I didn't find her earlier. I will not travel anywhere without consulting with her.
