Mari saved the day
We were supposed to take this cruise in August 2024 and the friend I was traveling with woke up on the departure morning with Covid. Mari swung into action immediately and somehow managed to rebook us for July 2025 without us losing any money! In fact we saved some. The cruise was wonderful and the ship was everything Mari said it would be. Her hotel recommendations are always spot on as well. It is a pleasure to work with her.

Mari Marks responded:Thank you very much for your kind words. I am so happy you both enjoyed yourselves!

What in the worls were we waiting for
When planning our last trip to Amsterdam and Normandy, my husband and I just couldn't seem to make any progress. The amount of available information seemed to hinder rather than help. Then we found our way to Mari. Mari expertly elicited our primary goals and travel preferences. Equally important she focused on things that could make or break a trip, such as my travel anxiety and dealing with my husband's medical issues and made sure to take them into account.
All of Mari's arrangements were terrific. She recommended a spectacular high end hotel in Amsterdam and a charming small quaint hotel in Normandy. In Amsterdam she found guides that were knowledgeable and charming. In Normandy, our guide spent the week with us, handling all the driving and displaying a wealth of knowledge about art, culture and one of my primary goals in going to Normandy - the WW 2 sites. Mari is warm, caring, knowledgeable and has an incredible attention to detail. we will be doing busin
