Would you Vespa through the vineyards?
We're working on a beautiful Italian honeymoon trip and thought how fun it would be to Vespa through beautiful Tuscany on the way to a custom farm-side cooking class. Italy knows how to pull the heartstrings.

Thank you!!

Fabulous Vacation –

Excellent – Mandy was informative and responsive, easy to work with.

Not a detail left out!

Mandy Horn is the most detailed and patient person I have ever worked with! She will make sure you get exactly what you want and is not afraid to have you think outside the box. She is very knowledgeable and will advise you to the nicest and best fit for your family. Highly recommend Mandy Horn!

Jen
Exactly what we were looking for!

Amazing trip –

It was great working with Mandy. She was very helpful, knowledgeable and quick to respond.

LoriMontpelier
Best Trip Ever!

Mandy was amazing from start until finish. When we initially spoke with her about planning a trip, she listened intently for our goals for our time away. She responded with several different options. After answering some concerns and questions we had especially since we were planning to take our sons with us, we ultimately decided on a Southern Caribbean cruise. Step by step, she walked us through the process of booking the cruise, the flights, hotel and trip insurance giving us options along the way and guidance when we needed it. Thankfully she took care of making all of our payments for us and organized all of our confirmation numbers and important information in one convenient document. She also provided us with information on a different excursion company than what the cruise ship uses called Shore Trips, and we were so thankful. Our experience with Mandy was completely flawless. We will use her for every trip we take in the future!

Relaxing Spring Break –

We had an excellent experience planning this trip with Mandy. She helped us decide on the type of accommodations that would work best for our family and booked a condo for us. It was a quick and easy process. The condo was very spacious, comfortable, and had a wonderful ocean view. We look forward to other opportunities to work with Mandy in the future!
