She was very helpful and had everything planned out and in place for us for our trip. It was very relaxing and stress free! She was also very fast at finding a perfect property for the 8 of us for a reasonable price. I will be asking for Julianne’s help for my next vacation !

By Taylor - Spruce Grove, AB

Julianne was fantastic. She made booking things so easy! Her suggestions were well received and she did an excellent job of making our trip as easy as possible to book. Could not have had a better experience. Am definitely going to be booking more travels with her in the future!

By Emily - Edmonton

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.

By Sean - Edmonton, Alberta | Trip To: Playa del Carmen

Julianne has helped us out before, and she came through again. She is able to find flights much more cheaply than I can on my own, which has saved us lots of money. If I ever ask about anything she either knows the answer or works tirelessly to find it. I would absolutely recommend her services!

By David - Edmonton

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 Karin - Osoyoos, BC | Trip To: South Africa

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!
