What Laura's Clients Have To Say...

Laura Palmer - Jay and Ami M.- Vai Travel Testimonial (1)

Words can’t express how much we appreciate Laura for putting together our most unforgettable honeymoon. From the first meeting until we came back from our honeymoon, Laura was there for us every step of the way. From checklists and check-ins to flight and hotel reservations etc, Laura was thorough and openly communicative. Our entire trip was hassle free and all of that was thanks to Laura’s passion for what she does and her attentiveness to detail. We will not only book with her again, but she will be in charge of booking all of our future travel plans!!!!! I would highly recommend booking your next travel adventure with Laura

“Laura took all of the guess work out of vacation planning by listening to our “must haves” and selecting several resorts within our budget. She secured a great deal and having vast traveling experience, was able to suggest amazing excursions, making our trip unforgettable! I will not travel without her!”

Laura Palmer - Tehani and John K - Vai Travel Testimonial (1)

Laura worked tirelessly with us to plan our 30th wedding anniversary trip. We changed direction very last minute and chose a Disney Alaskan Cruise with friends out of Vancouver, CA!! Laura didn’t even flinch at the last minute change and immediately directed her efforts to make everything go smoothly for us!!

Cruise, Airlines, pre and post hotel stays, transfers, extra Via tour to the Butchart Gardens and Victoria! She even had to contact us on the cruise to let us know about the latter tour being canceled and she was able to book us on a different tour to the same place.

Her ability to cover all the bases for my handicapped accessibility needs was excellent!! She went above and beyond to answer all our questions and ensured that this was a fabulous trip for us!! I can’t wait until we do this again!! We will definitely continue to request her services for all our future travels and highly recommend her and her company!! Thank you just doesn’t seem enough for the level of care, compassion and efforts on our behalf!!”
