Great customer service

Have used Teo's services for the past 8-10 years. Every time had peace of mind regardless of the destination or situation I was in. Teo finds the optimum travel deal for his customers. What I like the most about his professional service is the timely manner in which he responds to all questions and situations. Throughout the duration of the trips/vacations Teo is always available if needs arise - during my last trip (Sep-Nov 2020) had to reschedule my return flight 3 times. THANK YOU TEO!

Wonderful service from Teodor

I recently travelled to Costa Rica and my returning flights got cancelled. I was very lucky that I booked my trip with Teodor Mihail because he informed me right away and gave me two options to choose from, for returning back. I was so relieved and grateful at the same time. It is so important to have a travel agent to take care of your trips and flights.

Excellent services!

It was a pleasure working with you to plan our trip. We can say that the services you offered were excellent! The departure went very well and we had an excellent trip. The return flights were a hassle unfortunately, since we had to take 4 planes as a result of cancellations due to COVID-19. But evidently that is not your fault. We appreciate that you reached out to inform us of changes and offered several alternatives to rebook us on confirmed flights. The current travel situation is very hard, but we hope to collaborate with you in the future for our vacations. Many thanks for the wonderful service!

Thank you Marija for excellent service

I want to thank Marija for her help and assistance to find me a flight ticket in this pandemic situation when not many travel agencies wanted to help me. I will ask her assistance for my future trips and definitely recommend her good service to my friends and acquaintances. Thank you!

Best Find Ever

Brenda was referred to us by a friend and I could not have been happier to book our trip with her and all future trips as well! Her communication is impeccable and makes us feel like we're her number one priority. Although our trip was moved to 2021 we can't wait to see what next year has in store.

Australia

Dawn is a seasoned traveler, so her expertise came into play on planning my dream trip. As I was travelling alone I had a multitude of questions on airports,transfers, packing, expectations on long hauls etc., especially as the departure date came closer. Dawn came through with all the information I needed to have my seamless trip and was excited to hear all about my adventures upon my return. I look forward to my future trips planned with Dawn's enthusiasm and experience.

Above and Beyond

When you are responsible for minors, the last thing you want to happen is an incident when they are far away! When the COVID-19 surfaced, we got right on top of the situation and requested that our Canadian students return home. Teodor took the time to call Air Canada and to remain on hold for countless hours, to ensure our students got back home safely. Teodor re-arranged all their flights and they had no issues leaving the country. We are very happy to say that to this day none of our students contracted the virus during their exchange. I will say it again and again - use the services of a renowned travel agent, one who knows his business. If you don't have one, you're lucky to have discovered Teodor through this site! You can't go wrong with his expertise!

Amazing Knowledge

We have been working with Teodor for the last 3 years and the experience has been nothing but excellent. Being a non-profit organization, he understands and works perfectly within our allocated budget. He always manages to find the best prices for us with the airline of our choice. Should there be an issue, he assists us right away to fix it. We are very pleased with the organization skills and dedication to his clients he demonstrates. He has booked flights for us for groups of over a hundred students, leaving from each province heading to Toronto and then to France and Spain. I have recommended his services to individuals and will continue to do so for a long time.

I have been trying to set up a holiday for my family of four. One that would make everyone happy and me look like the coolest mom ever. I tried the internet myself but just got frustrated because I didn't know what resort would be better for us. Then I met Justina. I just told her what I wanted and she was able to recommend a place that she had been to personally. It was awesome and yes I am the coolest mom in the world! Thanks again and I cant wait til we are going to go away again.

South American Cruise With Holland America Line (March - April, 2020)

My husband Wayne and I engaged the services of Alain Belzile, Travel Advisor, for a cruise to South America in March 2020. We found Alain to be professional, knowledgeable, and supremely accommodating in ensuring that all details of our planned vacation were exactly what we wanted. Alain conferred with us frequently throughout the process of making all the arrangements for our flights, transportation from the airport to our hotel, and overnight accommodation in Buenos Aires before embarking on the ship. He also communicated with Holland America Line to finalize all the cruise arrangements and even registered us with Global Affairs Canada before we left home. His pro-active approach to covering every aspect of the trip was exceptional, and the documentation he provided was clear, concise, and accurate in every detail.

Our cruise from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to San Antonio, Chile, was interrupted a week after it began because of port closures due to the Covid-19 outbreak. When this occurred, we were advised to arrange flights back to Canada as soon as possible. On the evening of Sunday, March 15, we requested that Alain make arrangements for us, and within a few hours, he emailed us details of confirmed flights and hotel accommodations (saving us the stress of trying to manage the complex arrangements via mobile phone from a ship in the Strait of Magellan!) The next day we were informed that we would not be permitted to disembark the ship to catch our flights, so we informed Alain, who immediately cancelled all arrangements made the day before. From that time, he communicated continually with both the airline and the hotel to secure reimbursement for our cancelled reservations.

Our cruise was scheduled to finish on Saturday, March 21, at San Antonio, Chile, so we were confirmed on a flight from Santiago to Toronto that evening; however, further complications onboard the ship made it impossible for us to reach the port, so again, Alain cancelled our flight arrangements and communicated with us regularly, prepared to undertake whatever other arrangements we might require, and volunteering to help with any personal matters that needed attention because of our extended absence.

We cannot say enough about the commitment Alain showed in arranging our wonderful trip at the outset, and to handling the many unforeseen circumstances that changed the plans in an atmosphere of uncertainty and urgency. We knew that he was monitoring our situation and was prepared to help us in any and every way. This was a great source of comfort and relief to us in our situation. He remains in contact with us while final reimbursements are working their way through the system.

Alain also arranged a trip for my sister and me to visit the German Christmas Markets in Quebec City in November 2019. The markets are marvelous (closely resembling those in Germany), and we were delighted with his selection of a heritage hotel a few minutes’ walk from the market site. (He also manages to find the best flight deals!!). Merci, Alain, you are a star!

Great winter getaway!

It was an awesome experience working with Lama through the planning of this trip. This was my first trip to Mexico, and she was able to provide great suggestions on where to stay, the different types of resorts and options, things to keep in mind while traveling (currency, safety, insurance) and how to book excursions. She was very through and helped make the planning of a trip less stressful.

A Feel Good Story

Everyone. I wanted to give a great big shout out to Bonita. My Aunt Myrna was stuck in Capetown South Africa; she was aboard the Norwegian Spirit. They had 24 hours to leave South Africa. I asked Bonita for advice - we spent at least 45 minutes if not longer as she checked, told me not to wait too long as the Emirates fight had only 1 or 2 seats. Bonita had recommended not to even spend more time contacting Expedia (because she would probably get a refund anyway and severity of the situation) and instead get Myrna on the Emirates Flight. My sister, a former flight attendant did the booking quickly online.

Yes Myrna got on board the Emirates flight, some changes occurred as Air Canada flight did a turnaround to get the Canadians in London. It has been a week now and Myrna very relieved and under the 14 day stay home rule. This was Myrna's first trip without my uncle who passed away. They don't have children so my sisters and I are the family. Of course, end of February, you could still board a cruise with no problems or advisories by the Canadian Government.

So if you ever want a compassionate and knowledgeable Travel Advisor, Bonita is it. By the way, Bonita did not even get compensation for her advice. I so appreciate it and grateful.

Thank you Bonita.

Marnie Butler!! Thanks a million!!

Marnie Butler, words cannot express how wonderful you are!! She is very organized and her amazing communication skills left us with little to worry about from beginning to end. We were caught up within the covid-19 crisis and her efforts to get us home ASAP will not go unnoticed. She also went the extra mile with sending out information on protocols for proper quarantine procedures upon arrival, even before the government had put things in place. This was beyond her scope and never having to deal with any situation like this before she really went above and beyond. We cannot thank you enough for the all your attention and compassion during these difficult times.

Iberostar Paraiso Lindo - Cancun, Mexico

Debbie & I booked with Tina & Bill for a 10 day, all-inclusive holiday to Mexico. Bill & Tina actually picked us up at home on Feb. 28, and drove us to the Ottawa Airport, and then brought us back home from the Airport after the Holiday. We would recommend Bill & Tina (and have already to our friends) for any type of Holiday trips & excursions. The Iberostar Lindo was an amazing place, with great food, drinks (maybe too many), and very friendly & helpful people. It was our third visit to Mexico , and we are sure to go again, using Tina & Bill to help us find the perfect Vacation spot! Thank you both for the excellent service & help! Jim & Debbie :-)

I would not hesitate for a second to recommend her for your travel needs.

Thank You For Your Meticulous Care!

I write this from SQ 12 en route LAX from Tokyo which is the last sector of my journeys on this trip. I must tell you that the SIA sectors from Delhi to Singapore, Singapore to Tokyo, and now Tokyo to LA have been simply the most pleasurable and enjoyable in every way.

Each of the flights have been on time, the courtesy and especially the food and drink on board have been outstanding, and truly thanks to you Shoba and your former SIA colleagues in Chennai, I have received outstanding VIP treatment and service from all the cabin crews in every sector and I do not think that I shall ever consider any alternative to SIA anywhere in the World where SIA flies.

Many, many thanks for all the trouble which you took on my last minute ticketing, and I hope that Sumi and I will soon have the great pleasure of receiving you and your husband in Los Angeles.

Simply The Best

Anna is the only travel agent you will ever need. When we first started travelling we had no idea what we were doing so we contacted Anna and she was and is amazing. She was able to make several suggestions based on what we were looking for and was very patient with us as we had A LOT of questions she walked us through everything and made everything very simple. She always kept us updated with any changes to our trip even the smallest of details were not overlooked, she was also available to answer any questions we might have at all hours even though we told her there was no rush we always had a reply within hours. Her customer service is second to none and she will do everything she can to make your next holiday the best one that you have ever had, Anna truly goes the extra mile for her customers and will make your holiday panning a seamless experience so you don't have to worry about anything except enjoying your holiday. We will never need another travel agent thanks to Anna.

Casa Conda Beach Hotel

Casa Conda Beach Hotel was an amazing resort, and amazing trip. For any of your clients looking for a true R&R vacation, send them there!

Beds were so comfortable. Water was instant hot and good pressure. Room was clean. Food was hot and fresh. Staff was super, and learned your name. Grounds keeping could have been more pro-active as a dying tree branch almost hit Stoo when it fell, but he moved fast enough, and the staff cleaned it up same day.

All in all a great recommendation. Thank you.

Anna Goes Above and Beyond

We used Anna to plan a trip to Florida (not Disney). We weren't totally sure even what part of Florida that we wanted to go to. We gave Anna some ideas of amenities that we were looking for as well as a price point. Anna worked tirelessly for us and was so patient with us when we would ask for just one more option. She ended up finding an absolute gem that offered everything (and more) that we had asked for. We knew that she was only a phone call away if we needed her on our trip, but everything went so smoothly that we did not need her. We will definitely be back to the resort, and will definitely have no hesitation to use Anna again. We have referred her to all our friends and family, who have been equally as impressed with her services.

Travel Bug

When we decided to have our first holiday as a couple we went with Anna to help us decide where and what we should do. And with no complaints she helped us pick the best first all inclusive in Cuba. We since have only had Anna book all of our holidays. From all inclusive holidays to the basic flights across Canada to our multi city flights through Colombia! We would not have this new travel bug if it wasn't made so easy for us. Thanks Anna! You know we think you rock!

I’m writing this review as Anna always goes the extra mile when booking my vacations and if I need her help on vacation she is always there for me. She has gotten to know what things my husband and I like to do or what we expect in a resort and always steers us to the right fit!!! I never worry about a thing as she always makes sure everything is covered from excursions, luggage allowed, any extras needed!!!! Oh and not to mention always finds the good deal!!! Thanks Anna for being our number one vacation planner!!! Recommend to others all the time!!!

Our First Cruise

From late December 2019 to mid January 2020 my wife and I enjoyed our second trip to Australia and our first ever ocean cruise; ten days from Sydney to points in French Polynesia and return. This was preceded by several days in Sydney including the New Year 2020 fireworks, shopping and visiting famous Bondi Beach on New Year's Day plus a one day side trip to the national capital, Canberra. The entire trip was nothing short of spectacular.

Our travel companions, who happened to be our Silver Travel Advisor, Alain, and his gorgeous wife Marjorie were delightful to be with the entire time. Alain arranged every detail of this trip and not one part of our trip went wrong. We would highly recommend Alain and Silver Travel and we are already looking forward to having him arrange our next adventure.

Christmas At Melia Cozumel Golf All Inclusive

We want to express our appreciation to you for making sure we had a wonderful Christmas at the Melia Cozumel Golf All Inclusive resort. Your communication throughout the organizing process and answering all of our questions was helpful beyond words.

Our 4th-floor Garden View room was spacious and gave us a clear view of the sea, the resort grounds were immaculate, the gardens of palm trees and flowers were beautiful, the buffet provided a great variety of delicious food, the shuffleboard and mini golf were fun, and the entire staff was welcoming and friendly. All of this, along with sunshine and a white sandy beach made for a perfect vacation.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Bahamas Vacation

We found Barb through Facebook a few months back, she was nothing but kind and patient throughout our entire experience. She went above and beyond to find the perfect destination and resort for us, we chose a Riu resort in the Bahamas. She made everything easy for us first time travellers. She answered all of our questions very quickly and put our minds at ease about any last minute concerns we had. The process was very straightforward and travel was a breeze. The resort was beautiful and service was excellent. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be recommending Barb and her services to others in future. Thank you!

Excellent trip to Cuba

Crystal was very helpful with our trip to Cuba. She found us a lovely new resort - some of my favourite features other than the awesome beach was the lobster bbq on the beach! She made sure we had a quiet ground floor room, and when she advises you to use the lounge on the way back at the airport.. do it! It made the trip back so much nicer and less full of lineups.

Knowledgeable And Experienced

We have used Marnie as our travel agent for several trips now and each time have enjoyed our experience. This particular time we were taking a large group away for the Christmas holiday and had intended on going to a particular resort in the Caribbean. Marnie suggested that there were better places in the same price category and convinced us to go to Costa Rica instead and stay at the Riu. We have been to Jamaica, Mexico, Dominican, Turks and Caicos, Barbados and Cuba (and some of those 2-4 times) - Costa Rica was the best on all accounts. Marnie even made recommendations on day excursions. We are so glad she convinced us to change our location!! Trust her opinion!!!

Business travel

I've had Ross at World Travel Agency book business travel for me on a number of occasions over the past year, and I have always been pleased with the service he delivers. Ross has always made the experience personal. Each time I've contacted him, hes asked me for my preferences on flights, hotels, and even nearby restaurants I want to ensure are available.

I've traveled to destinations in both Canada and the US on business, and every time its been great! My last trip to Montreal, I wanted to stay at a specific hotel (Hotel Bonaventure Montréal) because my wife and daughters were joining me on the trip, and the hotel has a very cool rooftop pool. I gave Ross my three picks for hotels (this one being the first), and Ross told me the Bonaventure was booked solid - no rooms available. When I told Ross about my family joining me on the trip, he asked me to give him the day to see what he could do. Well... Ross came through, and got us a fantastic room at the hotel! And, my family had a great time! I could go on forever about how well Ross has treated me as a customer. I encourage anyone looking for an honest, hardworking, caring person to handle their travel needs, to contact Ross. You will never be disappointed! Happy trails!

Holy Land Trip

This was one of the most memorable and enjoyable trips that my husband Glen I took with Shoba and a wonderful group of friends. This was our second trip organized by Shoba. The first was to South America.

This trip surpassed all my expectations. In typical Shoba style it was flawless.

Each place we visited was carefully researched to ensure we had authentic experiences. Some of the examples of these were our visit to a Druze village where we able to interact & hear directly from those who lived in the village. Here we had the opportunity to have lunch with a Druze family in their home. We were treated to an array of traditional food prepared by the family. Other examples of authenticity was our visit to Nazareth village which re-enacted village life in Galilee in the time of Jesus.

Yet another was the boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, and the Shabbat dinner with an Orthodox Jewish Family.

Shoba’s professionalism is evident in the manner in which she is solves and handles situations as they arise. Her excellent organizational skills, & her attention to detail made each day of the trip memorable and seamless. Her choice in selecting tour guides with excellent historical knowledge just added to our awesome experience.

She always went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met, whether it was to the comfort of our stay in the hotels, the choices in the food we ate. A personal example of this quality was the effort she put into making sure I was able to meet with my childhood friend who lived in Haifa, who I had not seen in 50 years could join us for dinner in Tel Aviv.

One of the elements that made this trip truly amazing was Shoba’s ability to maintain that the group stayed cohesive, and that we had lots of fun, laughter. One of the highlights was that music brought joy each day. From the traditional singing of popular Jewish songs on the boat ride on the Sea of Galilee, the impromptu piano playing by her husband Kalyan, and group singing on the streets in West Jerusalem, or just listening to music CD’s on the bus. Music was an unifying force.

I am grateful to Shoba for the hard work & effort she put into planning our Holy Land trip. For my husband Glen & I this indeed was a trip of lifetime. Thank you Shoba.

A Wonderful North India Trip!

Hi Shoba,

We just got back from our trip to India and had a wonderful time!

Your choice of a good agency in India did a very good job. We had someone from the agency meet us at the airport and check us in at the hotel.

The guides were very knowledgeable, fluent in English, flexible and always punctual. We learned a lot. The guide at Agra advised us to see the Taj at sunrise which was a remarkable experience!

The hotels were all good choices. Le Meridian went out of their way to make our stay memorable.

Our friends who came along with us enjoyed the trip.

Everything went off smoothly.

Thanks again for all your help!

Experiences With Centre Holidays

Experiencing is believing!

My husband and I have, so far, had two very memorable holidays (South Africa and a Mediterranean cruise) with Centre Holidays. We also have several friends in Australia, Canada, US, UK and India who can attest to the extremely high quality of these trips.

We were presented with new and exciting experiences each day! The well-organized tours and efficiently-planned activities gave us the opportunity to comfortably immerse ourselves in history, culture, food, fellowship and entertainment.

Mrs. Shoba Subrahmanyam, our tour director, did a brilliant job of coordinating our flight, cruise, transfer and tipping arrangements, which took a whole lot of pressure off us. We received additional benefits (discounts/special privileges) as a result of Shoba’s super negotiation skills. She even arranged for photos and videos to be taken by a professional videographer, which were progressively shared with us during and after the holidays.

If you, your friends or your family are planning a holiday, I would highly recommend a Centre Holidays experience. The Company’s excellent reputation and success with international group bookings (usually 30–40 persons), will ensure you travel in comfort, give you the opportunity to make new friends in a safe environment, as well as open your minds to the abundance of travel opportunities awaiting you in this big, wide, beautiful, wonderful world.

Feel free to visit Shoba's Centre Holidays website at www.shoba.centreholidays.com.

HOLY LAND TOUR TO ISRAEL

I was unfamiliar with Shoba and her organization coming into this trip, being a last minute fill-in, but I have to say, I was very pleased with my experience.

We had a set itinerary, but, Shoba made it very flexible, and destinations were changed after a group vote - we also had additional items added as time permitted - overall adding to the an already packed set of opportunities and locations!

We had a great guide, with exceptional local knowledge, as well as great biblical stories and scriptures to go along.

The group meshed, and I felt included from the first day onward. We had fun, we laughed, ate, drank, sang and prayed the whole time! I would recommend Shoba and Centre Holidays, as this trip was surely a once in a lifetime trip for me!

The Year of change and travel!

2019 was our year of change, with a bachelor/bachelorette party in Las Vegas, our potential destination wedding, our honeymoon and not to mention our beautiful trip to Hawaii the year prior when we got engaged. Through all of this Brenda was not only supportive and helpful but was more than accommodating to all of our changes, requests and lack of knowledge with where to book and what to do! She made our experience of booking travel easy and fun and even offered a few amazing surprises after building a relationship with her! I would recommend using her for your dream vacations, a small weekend getaway and everything in between. Thank you Brenda for everything, we appreciate your time and effort and look forward to working with you again in the future! Mr. and Mrs. Rae

Holy Land Tour To Israel

Shoba and Centre Holidays delivered the trip of a lifetime for me. Israel was on my bucket list, and everything that was done to plan and execute this trip did not in any way disappoint. The itinerary was loaded and meaningful. Shoba arranged not only opportunities to see the most significant sites in Israel, but also cultural experiences—lunch with a Druze family and exposure to their culture; a Sabbath dinner in the home of a Jerusalem Jewish family, where we shared a meal and a celebration with not just their family, but visiting Jewish students as well; the Nazareth Experience—how the boy Jesus probably lived out daily life with his family. Our guides to the sites were amazingly informed about the facts of each site, but also the biblical references. Looking back, I realize over eight days, I not only learned, but I enjoyed and experienced the historical foundations of my Christian faith, and made new friends as well. Well done Shoba! The trip was a ten!!

Holy Land Tour

Been on 3 fantastic holidays with Shoba and every trip is better than the previous one. We are going to reach the skies because Shoba sets the bar so high. Attention to detail on the itinerary is meticulous; personal love and care of each member on the tour can never be bought; fun and laughter is so contagious and most of all she has a wonderful sidekick. Looking forward to doing many more trips.

Israel Tour

The most amazing trip. The itinerary covered everything we wanted to see, plus much more. We were able to interact with the different nationalities in Israel and learn more about them and share a special meal with them.

The River Jordan Baptisms were extra special as was the communion at the Garden Tomb. Shoba was an amazing tour director and the choice of hotels and guides added to the flavour of the trip. We have so many wonderful memories and would rate the trip more than 5 stars if that option was available.

We are back in Canada now but the group we travelled with and the trip we enjoyed so much will be in our hearts and memories forever. Thank you Shoba, you exceeded all expectations and your warm / loving personality was a real bonus to all of us. We shared so much fun and so much laughter that we can’t wait to go on another trip with you sometime soon., as life permits. Thank you again and Shalom

Walt Disney World

I have dealt with Sarah Tengler on numerous vacations and this time it was Disney. I have to say she made my life so easy. I have two young kids and had lots and lots of questions. I didn’t have to wait longer than 5 minutes before she emailed me back with an answer, sometimes even as early as 6:30 am I couldn’t believe she was already answering me back. She really made this crazy mama’s first Disney experience a truly amazing one.

She is well versed in hotels, dinners, rides. I’m pretty sure she knows everything and if she didn’t, she got back to me right away with the answer. We have booked other trips with her but this was by far the most planned.

I just wanted to praise her and her hard work and look forward to booking more trips with her.

Barb Helps People Have An Unforgettable Vacation

I am writing today because I wanted to let you know what an amazing agent you have in Barb Hicks. In 2016 she helped my husband and I book our wedding and just a few weeks ago, she helped us plan a trip to Las Vegas. Both of these trips were everything we could have asked for and more. Barb did an amazing job taking care of everything and ensuring we had a spectacular time.

I find myself referring her to friends and family constantly because we were so pleased with her. Barb really pays attention to her clients and gets to know them so she can recommend an experience to suit your style. She really goes above and beyond for her clients and is truly passionate about her work and helping people to have an unforgettable vacation. She is wonderful, and we’re already discussing our next trip with her. Thank you for having such a dedicated agent.

Paradise Village Puerto Vallarta

The customer service was below expectations. The check-in staff did not go over any details regarding the resort itself like where things were located. Only told us that we would get to book one night at a sit down dinner and had to reserve at least 24hr in advance. Every time we ordered anything we had to sign for it so we had to wait in some instances up to 1/2 hr. Even though there may have been good service there is no way we would tip them especially when its an all inclusive and waiting to sign their slip. Having to sign for everything makes no sense. We noticed that a lot of the staff spent more time chatting with each other vs serving guests. They made a lot of errors with drink orders. The food was ok and had enough choices for us. The maid would keep shorting us on towels so we were continually having to call the front desk to get more. They did not  enforce their own rules about saving beach chairs so people would leave there things there and would not show up for hours. Would not stay at this resort again.

Pura Vida In Costa Rica

We had a wonderful vacation in Costa Rica. We are used to going to either Mexico or Dominican, so we told Teodor we wanted to try something different this time. As usual, he recommended us the perfect resort. It was Riu Palace Costa Rica. Beautiful resort with endless activity options, especially since we had exchange privileges with the Riu Guanacastle next door. We helped a local community, and also did a tour to Nicaragua. And more - we went to the Plaza Premium Lounge at YYZ which was a great way to start our trip - also recommended by Teodor. Up to now we thought we have to be flying business class to use those lounges. What better way to start our trip than a good meal and glass of wine rather than the garbage food on planes. I cannot  thank Teodor enough for recommending us this wonderful resort, as well as the lounge! We love his personalized service and expertise!

You are an excellent travel agent. You were very pleasant and understanding of my needs, which were all met. Our accommodations at Royal Decameron was very nice from the reception to our room which was very clean and the staff was superb.

Let me address the food, breakfast, lunch and dinner was great, we had a sample of the local foods at each serving. Thank you for making this the best vacation I have ever had.

Fairmont Southampton Bermuda

We chose to spend our honeymoon at the Fairmont Southampton. Eugen helped to make this possible with his planning and advice given. Many may choose to rely on TripAdvisor, read Fodors or Frommers, or book online, but we think on the basis of all things being equal, the kind of impartial advice given from a certified travel agent - moreover an experienced and well-travelled one like how we had with Eugen, makes the informed decision that much more meaningful and worth it when you arrive to your destination and everything is as was explained and expected. You can find that kind of value out of a book or a site. But you can find it with Eugen. As for the trip itself, the Fairmont Southampton did not disappoint with its fantastic private beach right next to Horseshoe Bay (you really pay for this value). Great views from our room with Lighthouse nearby, great service befitting the Fairmont brand, and great dining especially at the Waterlot Inn. What makes it extra convenient are the pickup/dropoff to airport included, and the complimentary ferry service to Hamilton. Great memories, and a great time thanks to Eugen. Book with him and find out for yourself!

Riviera Maya 2017

My husband and I were dying to escape the cold winters. We were having a hard time choosing the resort, as I have lots of preferences. Teodor found us the perfect resort – the Grand Bahia Principe Tulum. It is located in a complex of 3 resorts – Bahia Principe Coba, and Bahia Principe Akumal. We had full access to the Tulum and the Coba. We liked the beach at the Tulum the best (the one we were at). The beach was beautiful, and the food – we had LOTS of a la carte options, considering we could use them at both resorts! We can’t wait to do the same next winter – have the feeling of getting on the plane at -10 degrees with winter clothes, and step off at +30. It was a bit of a drive from the airport, but that was great as Tulum and Xcaret were pretty much next door. What an experience – we didn’t know there was so much to do in the Mayan Riviera, and beautiful places. All we can think is we want to come here for 2 weeks next time!

Costa Fascinosa Mediterranean Cruise

This was my second time booking with Teodor, and as usual, he gave outstanding 5-star service. This time we were thinking about a cruise, and Teodor gave us several options. In the end, we ended up having a total of 9 people, who all wanted to do a Mediterranean Cruise. Teodor found us a cruise unlike any other. Anyone can do an itinerary to the top cities in the Mediterranean, whether it be a cruise or rent a car. Teodor got us a cruise that took us to mostly hidden places: the itinerary was Civitavecchia-Palermo-Malta-Palma de Mallorca-Barcelona-Savona-Civitavecchia. We sailed on the Costa Fascinosa, and loved the Italian atmosphere on board. The restaurants, especially the formal one, were amazing. The meals were beyond what we expected, and they would have staff performing dance shows in the restaurant to keep everyone entertained. The shows in the evening were amazing. We enjoyed having rooms next to each other, all of them oceanview so we could see where we were. If I had one word to describe this cruise, that would be perfect. The shore excursions were great. In Palermo we just caught the hop-on hop-off bus. In Malta we did a tour across the country to a beach. Coming back, the tour made lots of photo stops at some beautiful landscapes, one time we felt like we were in Santorini. In Barcelona, we did a tour to the Sagrada Familia and the Casa Battlo. It was great to have priority access over the long line-ups at these worldwide popular attractions, as that gave us time to walk around a bit after the tour. And in Savona, we split up: some of our friends did Monaco, others did Nice, but we did a tour to Positano. I would call Positano “an alternative paradise” – it does feel like paradise, yet it’s different. And the drive there through the mountains was breathtaking. As usual, we would recommend Teodor for anything. We were going to stay in Rome after the cruise, however, he recommended us to do a pre-cruise there in case of any flight delays. And he was right – the flight was 7 hours late! He basically saved us from missing the ship, especially since Civitavecchia is a bit of a drive from Rome! And it was great to have seats together on the plane, also arranged by Teodor. We enjoyed visiting Rome, it is a truly wonderful city. We will definitely be back, after having thrown a coin into the Trevi Fountain!

Dear Shoba Thanks for organising the tour.

Kenya - Oxford

Dear Shoba: I just wanted to thank you for all the planning and effort that went into our trip to Kenya and Oxford. Your thoroughness was appreciated by everyone.. The hotels more than met our expectations and the local transportation around Kenya unfolded without issue. The choice of providers for our safari to the Maasi Mara was excellent. We had a wonderful time with Joseph for 3 days touring and this was certainly the highlight for the team as we got to see all of the big 5 in their natural habitat. It will be a life long memory.. Thanks especially for the hard work of making unforeseen changes at the last minute that arose during the trip. You certainly went above and beyond working with airlines, hotels and tour operators. Everyone of our team had a remarkable time and again thank you. Cheers, Dave Cottrill

Grand Bahia Principe Cayacoa

We had a great time at this resort. Teodor was really helpful with the booking process and even gave us seats together. The resort was great, its located on a big hill overlooking the bay. You can easily get to the beach using a mini-car, elevator or stairs. The beach was not too big and not white sand, but it was ok with us. The food was great, and we loved the room. At the end, check-out time was 12:00 but our transfer bus was at 5:00. They let us stay until 3:00 at no charge. We would strongly recommend this resort, and Teodor as the #1 agent to book with.

Punta Cana - Majestic Mirage Resort

We had a wonderful time in Punta Cana at the Majestic Mirage resort.. Our one bedroom suite was huge and beautiful!. The service at this resort was amazing, not sure if it was because it was so empty?.. but regardless, the service was great. Generally when we travel to Punta Cana, the service is a little slow but we never complain since it′s a laid back country... However, this place was really fast service everywhere!. The only complaint that I have is that I wish I booked it for 10 days instead of 7..lol..

7 Nights Viva Wyndham V Heavens, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

Room: The room size, location (building 5) and decor were quite pleasing. The shower overflowing and expanding the wood on the base of the bathroom door to the point that it wouldn′t close was an annoyance, but hey you′re on an island. Two double beds were both bouncy, sloped in the center and needed replacing. Pillows were also the ones you had to fold in three to get a decent thickness. Patio door would not lock unless you performed a bit of push⁄pull⁄twist with the broken latch, we did finally master it, however the maid continuously left unlocked (we were on ground level so was a concern). Air conditioner stopped working day 5 of 7 and had no hot water at dinner hour on 2 occasions. Again, we coped and did not bring to the hotel′s attention. Bees were an issue near our building and I was stung on the beach on my foot. No big deal. They sprayed daily as you could smell the pesticide as you walked around the resort in that area. Bees are nature, we get that and appreciate the resort was trying to keep them under control. We also can appreciate those guests with bee sting allergies, but perhaps spray first thing in the morning rather than mid day to reduce the exposure to guests. Also, the sprayer should be masked! Grounds: Beautiful! Walk to beach was absolutely stunning and in no way of a concern to us about distance to beach. Pools⁄Beach⁄Grounds: All very clean. Main pool just needs a refresh paint job, otherwise beautiful. Saturday afternoons they do a foam party and fill the pool with foam! The absolutely most memorable experience for us! What fun! We felt like kids taking a huge bubble bath! Will never forget this experience. Upper pool above main pool bar also needs a refresh. Pool near Sofrito Restaurant was just repainted and looks lovely, however did not see anyone using as it was in an awkward location attached to Sofrito restaurant. NEVER had an issue with finding a lounge chair at beach or pool. After 10 A⁄I′s under our belt, this was a first. Quite enjoyed this. They apparently had an issue with their main washer⁄dryer for towels and were taking them to another resort to be cleaned for a few days. This meant a refresh of towels in the rooms and the towel hut were causing frustrations with some guests. We just hung and reused them and wasn′t a problem for us. Beach was lovely! Vendors did come further into the beach lounge area compared to other resorts, but ′No, gracias′ was all it took to have them move on. If you had your eyes closed or were reading, they left you alone. If you lingered too long looking at their product and engaged in any more conversation, it was harder to have them move on. Self-serve cold water dispensers at both bars was a great addition. Awesome coffee and very hot water if you like tea. Omelet station in the morning was great. We enjoyed the wine compared to other resorts (Spanish Dry red and white). Didn′t really have any top shelf stuff though. Staff: All extremely helpful, polite and did a great job! Front desk staff are the best we have encountered. Food: We enjoyed the food varieties except for Blend. The resort needs to work on the dishes in this restaurant. Lots of potential. We actually spent most of our meals at the main restaurant and also found a variety. You must try the banana mash. Yummy! Enjoyed Sofrito (DM inspired dishes). Excursions: We hired a taxi (2 guys) and they took us to the waterfalls, fort, historic Puerto Plata for 3 hours for $80 American for 2 of us. Was very enjoyable and would recommend. We booked snorkelling at the resort from the hut near the pool. The trip took us on an open air truck for $50 each. The location was 30 minutes away near Sosua at Casa Marina Beach Resort. The guys at the snorkelling and scuba diving shop were awesome. Laughing and joking around but were very careful about ensuring safety. They took us out to two locations. THE BEST snorkelling we have experienced to date! Incredible varieties of fish and beautiful reef. Would highly recommend this adventure. It was difficult to get on and off the boat from the beach with very high waves the day we went as they don′t have a dock. In summary, we would recommend this resort to those that aren′t overly focused on the negative aspects of life and their experiences. Travelling to various Caribbean Islands over the years, we have accepted that no resort is perfect. We aren′t looking for perfection, just a break from reality and the cold. We are on vacation and unless the issue is something we are absolutely unable to tolerate, we don′t usually make a fuss over. This A⁄I resort through Sunwing was great value for the money.

She is always completely organized even when dealing with a group of students (which can be difficult). She has always managed to get our groups in the same building when we get to the resort and always makes sure we have everything we need to know upon arrival. Thanks to Marnie I have had two of the best vacations in Cuba!! I will always go to her anytime I need to book a vacation in the future.

In all honesty, this was the first time we ever went to Cuba and it was one of the most well planned and beautiful vacations my family and I have traveled to. Your services helped us completely enjoy our experience. From going to Cuba to leaving Cuba, everything was so well organized and easy to follow through. The food we ate everyday was amazing and the hotel itself was kept very clean and nice. All the workers were very kind and efficient as well with everything they did for us. All the events planned like the Marine Adventure, Trip to Havana, and Jeep Safari that we chose to go to was very enjoyable and well planned with thorough explanations on orientations to make sure we are well informed on everything we could possibly do on our stay there. This was definitely an amazing vacation and my family and I are very excited to come back here again sometime. Thank you for everything.

Hi there fellow travelers! My bf and I recently booked our very first vacation through Manta Ray Travel. I would like to start with a rating of the agency. As a first time traveler we had tons of questions, a few too many now that I look back lol. Manta Ray Travel was so pleasant when responding to all our questions. They were quick to respond, knowledgeable of places and resorts, and so lovely to do business with! All we had to do was narrow down where we wanted to go and provided a few highlights of things we were looking for out of our vacation. Manta Ray Travel was quick to provide a list with options of choices, pictures and websites of different places and resorts, and included the best excursions to go with. The work was all done and all we had to do was choose where and what resort! We ended up booking the catamaran which is a total must do!! (Will rate the excursion below in the resort review). They were able to book us on a nice and early flight which is what we wanted. Great affordable pricing and service with a smile!! Totally an 11 out of 10 if that′s possible. Now to rate the resort. We stayed at the Royalton Hicacos Resort and spa in Veradero Cuba. Upon getting to the airport in Veradero the buses were nicely organized, cold beers available for purchase, great cuban locals and sunshine. Upon arrival to the resort you′re greeted with a nice cold towelette and sparkling wine. Again, service was quick and efficient. Check in for us wasn′t until 4pm but we were in our rooms by 12 pm! Staff was great and friendly, and so helpful!! The resort was beautiful!! Many restaurants to choose from (Italian, Caribbean, Seafood, Tex Mex, etc) plus the a la carte buffet. The a la carte food had a huge variety of all sorts of food and desserts. The restaurants were delicious, especially the steak at the seafood restaurant. So yummy! The pools were clean and refreshing, lots of lounge chairs to choose from. Great swim to bar with friendly staff who always remember everyone′s names and greet them every time you walk by or swim up for a drink. The entertainment was great with new shows every night. They had dancing lessons, shooting ranges, competitions, a mini fashion show to showcase all the great clothes they had for sale. The beach was spectacular!! Great beach restaurant right by the beach. The catamaran was AMAZING!! by far the best part if our vacation. You start off at the Marina where you get on the boat. Then you make your way to do snorkeling in the ocean. After that you stop off at Cayo Blanco and you have dinner on the beach and have a chance to relax on the Beach before the boat takes off again. After Cayo Blanco you get to see the dolphins and have a meet and greet. We had the chance to get in the water wth dolphins, touch and interact with them and then have our picture taken!! If you offer them a nice tip they will also let you swim with the dolphins! ! The experience was soooooooo amazing. Overall it was the best vacation ever. I wish I was still there. All in all I would totally recommend this resort as well as this agency, 100%!! GREAT JOB MANTA RAY TRAVEL! ! I will for sure be using them going forward for all my booking needs.

Vacation at St. James Club in Antigua

I recently booked a vacation with Manta Ray Travel to St James Club in Antigua. Eugen made planning this trip so easy. From numerous recommendations on potentials destinations to making my final plans, Eugen had insightful advice. St James Club was a wonderful choice. The hotel was beautiful. Eugen arranged for a personal driver to take my family on a private tour of the island. I can′t wait to go back to Antigua. Right before I left on my vacation, I broke my leg. Even with this unexpected accident, Eugen made special arrangements with both the airline and the hotel that I was still able to go on the vacation and have a wonderful time. If you are looking for a travel agent who really cares about your experience, I would strongly recommend Manta Ray Travel. I will definitely be calling Eugen again when I book my next vacation.

Riu Palace Macao in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Recently booked a vacation through Manta Ray Travel in Punta Cana at the Riu Palace Macao and had a great experience thanks to Manta Ray Travel and Eugen! Eugen requested a particular room with an amazing view and king size bed, which we got, as well as a personal welcome note from the hotel and Manta Ray Travel. The champagne on ice and fresh fruit in our room upon arrival was a great touch as well! I′d highly recommend Manta Ray Travel to anyone looking to book a hassle-free vacation. I found Eugen to be extremely prompt and well organized in getting me all the necessary documents prior to my trip. Thanks again Manta Ray Travel for a great vacation!

Grand Paradise Playa Dorada in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

We recently got back from our vacation in the Dominican. It was awesome to say the least. We were not really sure where to go this time but we were leaning towards Cuba. I got in touch with Tina Bobb at Centre Holidays. I told her what we were kind of looking for and our price range. She said to leave it with her and that she would take care of it for us. Within a couple days she came back with the Grand Paradise Playa Dorada in Puerto Plata Dominican. So that is where we went for our vacation. We were amazed at how clean the resort was including the rooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was great and had a good variety everyday. Thank you so much Tina for all your hard work and researching the perfect place for us within our budget. We look forward to booking with you again for our next trip wherever it may be. We have already recommended you to some friends and will continue to do so. Thanks again for taking the time and effort in to looking after our best interest.

Ami Hisanaga should be your go-to travel agent

Ami is one of the most amazing travel agents I have ever met. I always book my business and personal trips through her. Regardless of what my needs are, she always goes above and beyond to meet them. She even remembers the seating preference of all her clients on their flights! She is extremely knowledgeable when it come to booking tours, flights and hotels. Most importantly she always manages to get the best rate out there! I would definitely recommend Ami as your go to travel agent.

Riviera Maya - Luxury Bahia Principe Sian Ka An

Our vacation was very relaxing, and it was very warm - exactly what I like! The resort was a bit far from the beach, but shuttles run frequently. Sian Ka An is the adults only part of 5 hotels on the complex. Food was great, rooms, entertainment and the people were all great. Although we like being on a beach, it was interesting being in a jungle pretty much and hearing all those sounds but enjoying it in luxury with no bugs. Food was actually really great, we ate well and they had something for anyone, for example there was a healthy corner and everything we needed. Then the bar included drinks like Grey Goose and Johnny Walker. Snorkeling was good because the resort is right on a coral reef, but because of that, despite the width of beach, it′s a safe swim area. I prefer the coral not being cleaned out, but again doesn′t bother us. We didn′t use the spa or any other facilities, but everything was very well kept and clean. We saw some interesting animals like lemur raccoon. It was great! What we liked was, our bracelet had the ″Luxury″ name on it, so we could go to any of the 5 resorts in that area, while others had to stick to their own resort, so that was amazing and well worth the price paid! All hotels were close to each other, same as beach distance - less than 4 km away. Only thing we didn′t like was being at the back of the plane, but it′s not a problem. And our return airport ride came at 7 am and dropped us at the airport at 8:30 for a flight departing at noon. But in the end it′s the resort that matters, so we had an amazing vacation!

Samana - Grand Bahia Principe Cayacoa, Royal Service

We loved the resort. Nice property, nothing bad. The resort is on a hill, then you take the elevator to go to the beach. After you take the elevator down, there are small buildings, 3 floors each building - and those were our rooms since we upgraded to Royal Service - so our rooms were close to the beach unlike the others, which was great. There were 2 beaches, one of them was in front of our room, which had an ocean view. The water was nice and warm, and the resort is cleaned on a regular basis - if there is anything dirty, in maximum 20 minutes it will be cleaned! The food was good, but every day it was exactly the same. But much better than in Cuba. Upgrading to the Royal Service was well worth it - they have a lounge for Royal Service guests, there is a concierge and a room with computers for free wifi. Domestic drinks and house wine were included, and we had a welcome cocktail upon arrival. We have never seen a nicer room in the Domincian. The rooms aren′t as big. This room was big, new and modern furniture, new LG TV. And we had an ocean view, we were on 3rd floor. No comment on the room and service. The destination representative was very caring, not wanting just money, but rather to help you and develop a great relationship. And he is usually there most of the day, unlike other resorts where they′re only on property 1 day a week. The destination is safe. If you want to go downtown, there is a shuttle going there every hour. After sunrise, people work hard to maintain the property. We had towels in the room as part of Royal Service, and you could exchange them at anytime. Upon check out, we didn′t have the towels because we left them in the room and they said don′t worry - hassle free! As part of the service with Transat, check-in was done while on the bus from the airport to the hotel, which was amazing! By the time we arrived at the resort, keys and everything were in our hands, and we could skip the reception. Great vacation as always when booking with Inspiring World Voyages! Seats together on the plane, and always great resorts for us!

Chicago - Toronto

I booked a flight for my friend, Mr. Gheorghiu, who was coming to perform in Toronto. Forget the internet, I was given numerous options with professional 5-star service. And on top of that, the agent assigned his seats upon booking, and upgraded him to extra legroom seats. I told the agent he doesn′t speak English, so the agent not only assigned his seats, but also checked him in for his flight and sent him the boarding passes. I had absolutely nothing to worry about - my travel agent took care of absolutely everything! The flight was on time, and he arrived in Toronto, and back home, all relaxed and fresh. I was used to booking online, but you changed everything! From the first phone call, I felt at home and that I could rely on Inspiring World Voyages to take care of everything for me. Great job, will definitely book all my trips with you in the future! I recommended you my daughter, who after booking a family to go to her wedding, said to me ″why didn′t you recommend him to me earlier so he could do my entire wedding? The service was outstanding, no companies have given me such service!″

Niagara Falls - Marriott Gateway Hotel Overlooking the Falls

This was the best hotel in Niagara Falls we ever stayed in! It was our anniversary, and we had requested a high floor and a room with jacuzzi. Our room was overlooking the falls on the 15th floor and had a jacuzzi, therefore our requests were met! When we got to the room, they delivered a red wine (our favourite type of wine!) and a cake, along with a card saying Happy Anniversary! We were about to cry! The breakfast was included, and it was a full breakfast, which was amazing as not many hotels include it, and it was delicious! The dinner was delicious as well, best steak we have ever had! A bit expensive - for 2 people it was almost $100 after taxes but well worth the price! It was a truly amazing weekend and you did a great job making our anniversary special! There′s no way someone can have such an amazing anniversary by booking online!

Cruise on MSC Preziosa + post-cruise in Amalfi

Just got back from the trip of a lifetime! 1 week on the MSC Preziosa around the Mediterranean and a custom post-cruise package: 2 nights in Venice, 4 nights in Rome and a few days on the Italian Riviera around Naples. It was truly an ″inspiring world voyage″, especially since we had everything taken care of, from seats on the plane to all transportation and hotel. Thank you very much! You are now our ″agency for life″. No other comparable place to book our tickets!

Antigua - Halcyon Cove By Rex Resort

I want to thank you for booking us at this resort, it was an excellent choice. The resort is fairly small, but understandable as we agreed to a 3-star, the beach was beautiful, the food was good and the management was always trying to organize great activities. Very clean and nice ambiance, colonial-style. Last night, for example, dinner was outside, at tables with candles, and music playing. The majority of guests are from the UK, ages 40-60. Not much young people. So for us, it was the perfect choice. And my husband wants to thank you for the seats you gave us on the plane - extra legroom and together, we didn’t have to worry to get to the airport early to get seats together.

Cancun - Valentin Imperial Maya Resort

Valentin resort was elegant and stylish... the room was awesome, bathroom was like a spa. We spent most of the evenings in Playa Espana were there was live music. The singers were very good and overall we danced and sang with them and had a very very good time... restaurants had very good food, especially the French and Italian restaurants. The beach was nice, wide, water was shallow. And thank you for assigning our seats on the plane! We met others from Toronto, and they did not get seats together because there were none left. We told them our travel agent did them for us and recommended you!

Flight + Hotel Package in London

My husband and I had a wonderful time in London. Up to now we had only seen the Big Ben, but this time we saw almost all of London. As weird as it may sound, we hadn′t even seen the London Bridge until this trip! But now we had a complete London experience, and even did a tour to Stonehenge! Thank you Inspiring World Voyages, you always sell us the best 5-star vacations. And of course we were given seats together on the plane. A bit bumpy ride but it′s always like that when crossing the ocean. Thank you again! We can′t wait for our next vacation which we already booked with you - Mediterranean Cruise on Costa Fascinosa in May!

Varadero - Hotel Bella Costa

Our vacation was really good. The resort had a very nice beach, the weather was nice, no complaints. We did 2 tours and they were great. What we are thankful for is that you recommended Transat Holidays to us over Sunwing Vacations. We had met others from Toronto while at the resort, who had come with Sunwing. They told us that their rooms were smaller than a regular hotel room, smaller bathroom, smaller shower, no fridge or mini-bar, no balcony, and located over the restaurant and swimming pool, where it was noisy from the entertainment. We could not believe it, we thought that’s impossible! For us, as we were booked with Transat, and had found out that Transat had only villas allocated to them – our room (a villa) was very spacious, 2 TVs, big living area and you could see the ocean close by (not oceanview rooms, but good enough to relax looking at the ocean), and quiet area. You transformed our vacation from horrible to amazing for recommending us to pay a small difference and go with Transat!

Punta Cana - Caribe Club Princess Resort and Spa

We are back safe and sound. We all had a wonderful time at the Princess Caribe resort. This resort was fantastic for families. The staff were all very friendly. The resort was very clean and food was good as well. Lots of activities for everyone! The pool was very large and we all had fun at the pool. I usually like the ocean better but not this trip. I truly have nothing bad to say about this resort... it is a 4 star (not 5 star) and this is exactly what I expected from a 4 star resort. The VIP was definitely worth buying, we had 24 hour room service which we used a couple times for midnight snacks.

Punta Cana - Sirenis Cocotal Beach Resort Casino and Aquagames

We just returned from our vacation in Punta Cana. The flights went great, we had seats together, and we had an amazing vacation. I could talk for hours, but to summarize it, the resort is very clean, not luxury, but renovated and well-kept constantly. The food was easy to find all day throughout the resort, sufficient and lots to choose from, especially in the evening. The weather was great, although 2 days it rained, but most of the time it was warm and sunny. We went on 2 different tours, they were good. The entertainment team was very good, we had games on the beach, aerobics, a well-kept gym, nice shows, as well as a club. The beach was clean, enough towels, beach chairs, as well as a nice swimming pool. The waterpark was super and not crowded. What I liked the most were the people, we talked to them a lot and they were really friendly and open, had a positive attitude and were working hard with a nice smile. We had so much to do that the vacation flew really fast, and we were sad to leave. My husband and I said we would definitely return to this resort! Sad that I didn’t inquire about 10 days.

Huatulco - Dreams Resort and Spa

We just returned from what we would call the best vacation ever! We don’t even know what to write, because everything, in one word, would be ″perfect″! The resort had a beautiful setting, it was a truly romantic paradise for us to celebrate our anniversary! The anniversary package you told me about worked well – they had a present in our room, and gave us a welcome cocktail. The beach was beautiful, entertainment was nice... everything was perfect! Only disadvantage was that it took 6 hours to get there (no flight delays or anything). One more hour and you reach Europe! But that didn’t bother us, you gave us seats together and we enjoyed the flight, as always.

Flight to Romania

We flew Toronto to Bucharest on Air France and KLM. The service on Air France was great, I don’t know why some people hate them. Between the two, we liked KLM more, they were friendlier and had a smile. What we liked is having our seats assigned by you. So far, we have been used to going to the airport and getting seats in the middle of the plane, because nothing else available. Inspiring World Voyages gave us seats together UPON BOOKING! That way, we went to the airport only 2 hours prior to departure, and our seats had been taken care of! For the first time, we had window seats together on all flights! That was amazing! We don’t know any other agency which will give you these services – we did business with another agency for 8 years and all they did was a ticket (same as online websites)! Inspiring World Voyages will do MUCH MORE than that!

Vacation at Riu Varadero in Varadero, Cuba

Overall it was an amazing experience. There is a huge difference between a 4-star and 5-star in Cuba. We have only been to a 4 or 4.5 star. We’re not too sensitive, but better to not wait in line. The food was much more diversified and sufficient, no need to go to a la carte! The buffet and grill had fantastic food, and line-ups were nothing compared to a 4-star. Even for drinks, they had international, local, tequila, everything you wanted. Last time we were in Cayo Coco, and we were at a 4-star – 4 types of food, very limited, and very long line-ups because there was almost nothing, hard for everyone to choose. At Riu Varadero, it was the opposite – line went very fast and there was a lot of variety. We tried booking an a la carte, but they were full – that didn’t affect us. There was so much to choose at the buffet that we simply didn’t need an a la carte. The beach in Varadero was different than what we were used to. Last time we were in Cayo Coco, it was a nice and long beach. But in Varadero, the beach is long and spacious, and with white sand. The beach looked like Punta Cana – we were not expecting that. There were enough beach chairs to accommodate everyone, and you could take your space on this spacious and beautiful beach. Entertainment was perfect. No one can beat them! The resort looked and felt brand new. We have had hotels where we found mould in the room – nothing like that here! Last but not least, the seats on the plane worked very well – we went to the airport relaxed, assured that we had seats together, and that’s what happened. Last time, we got to the airport 3 hours prior and didn’t get seats together, we were very disappointed. But now we know who to book our trips with!

Flight from Timisoara, Romania to Toronto

I have arrived in Toronto and would like to thank you for your assistance and services with this reservation. The seats you assigned me were excellent and I travelled very comfortably. Only hard part was the stopover in Munich, as I had a 40 minute stopover but my first flight had a 30 minute delay, so there were literally 10 minutes, but I made it!!! The airline staff helped me get to my connecting flight, and it was a great voyage. Thanks again for your excellent services!

A wonderful and memorable vacation at Secrets Beach Royal

Shoba! You were most definitely on our minds while we were away as we were treated like royalty. It was certainly memorable! As a review I would say that the resort was a great resort for its price point and definitely I would recommend it if you have clients who want a full service all inclusive resort adults only. The beach is gorgeous and the sand so fine, the service was excellent - there were waiters all over the place and the restaurants were very good. I know that you had sent an email to the resort about our arrival​. ​It was fantastic to be treated so well (Preferred has a very nice private pool with swim up bar) and a roped off beach area. And the level of service was excellent. Shoba - we cannot thank you enough for arranging everything. Our family was so impressed and so very happy - it was really wonderful and yes memorable. Thank you so much.

A super efficient agent

I was directed to Centre Holidays by a friend when my travel need was urgent due to a family emergency. Pritpal from Centre Holidays came to our rescue and she certainly did justice to the word ″SUPER EFFICIENT″.... we had our travel to India confirmed in hours. And since then, it has been smooth sailing on most of our travel plans. Our partnership with Centre Holidays has now blossomed even at a corporate level, because after my positive personal experience with them, I recommended them to my business colleagues who had the same great experience. Timely, courteous and effective: Pritpal has been able to fulfill our travel needs efficiently. It is a joy to experience such customer-servicing in the world of travel, that can otherwise be quite frustrating. Pallavi Sodhi Executive Vice President, OXeNHaM Consultants Inc.

Thanks to Pritpal, planning my trips is quick and stress-free. I just send her an email with details of what I need and in no time I get a response. And I know that she is working hard to get me the best price. Last year the airline I was travelling on messed up by cancelling my return flights. Before I even knew what had happened, Pritpal had argued with them on my behalf and set everything back in order. No charge to me and stress-free!

Melia Las Dunas in Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba

Thanks for your email and all your assistance booking our trip. It was actually a great trip and we were very fortunate with our weather. We were very happy with the resort. The grounds are absolutely immaculate and the beach is post card perfect. Even the food, which as you know takes a lot of criticism, was actually not bad at all. The a la carte restaurants were a nice alternative to the buffet dinners. Unfortunately, there will always be complainers and picky people that want to only look at the negatives but all in all we were satisfied with the whole resort and would likely entertain going back there again.

Multi-City Flight

Dear Shoba, I write this from SQ 12 en route LAX from Tokyo which is the last sector of my journies on this trip. I must tell you that the SIA sectors from Delhi to Singapore, Singapore to Tokyo, and now Tokyo to LA have been simply the most pleasurable and enjoyable in every way. Each of the flights have been on time, the courtesy and especially the food and drink on board have been outstanding, and truly thanks to you Shoba and your former SIA colleagues in Chennai, I have received outstanding VIP treatment and service from all the cabin crews in every sector and I do not think that I shall ever consider any alternative to SIA anywhere in the World where SIA flies. Many, many thanks for all the trouble which you took on my last minute ticketing, and I hope that Sumi and I will soon have the great pleasure of recieving you and your husband in Los Angeles. Warm regards, Bhaskar VIJAYA BHASKAR MENON Chairman and Chief Executive I.M.I. Incorporated 9454 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite #600 Beverly Hills, CA 90212 U.S.A.

Toronto to Rome

Our vacation was awesome. Air Transat - surprisingly good service. There were areas on the plane I found to be cold but other than that, we had sufficient leg room, pleasant ambiance, good food for free. Thank you for recommending Air Transat! Last time we flew Alitalia and it was poor service.

Family Vacation at the Moon Palace Grand Cancun

I am very thankful to have had Natalie′s input in my family′s stay in Mexico. At the beginning, she listened to my many wants and needs and way too many choices. As an agent, she explained all of the perks at the resorts she suggested, the different city destinations and what sightseeing they had nearby and didn′t press me to make a selection based on price. I loved that she had the experience of staying at the very place that really captured my attention. Natalie cyphened down my selections easily. She even paid close attention to my needs for the flight times to be child-friendly. The Moon Palace in Cancun was gorgeous and beyond expectations. My daughters and I enjoyed the resort amenities, the weather and our excursions that were booked directly through the resort and paid with resort credits. It felt safe to allow my 13 year old to go alone to the youth club. The children′s place kept my 9 year old so captivated that she begged to go daily. They even gave me a cell phone to reach me poolside if my daughter′s health was any concern. I will definitely be referring clients to Natalie for their travel arrangements. Thank you for everything!

7-Night Package to Melia Varadero

We booked few times different packages with agent Teodor and we were very very pleased with his services and knowledge. He is always available for any questions or concerns we have and couple of times he solved some issues we had with the bookings. We would highly recommend Teodor for any travel arrangements you may need.
