Shawn Goldberg
Westbury, New York Travel Agent
France
I’ve visited France numerous times and could keep going back! Paris is of course on everyone’s list and is a trip I love to plan. Recently, I have had a number of clients and families looking to pair a few days in Paris with another destination. I have sent these couples and families to Normandy, Champagne and The Loire Valley after Paris– all wonderful itineraries that add an additional cultural and historic element.
Provence and The Cote d’Azur are each incredible destinations – and also work very well together. Finally, Bordeaux is just magical and I loved my experience biking through the vineyards there.

MOST DREAMLIKE EXPERIENCE
Shawn was EXCELLENT and exactly what you want in a travel agent. I didn't have to lift a finger and everything was perfectly planned for our special weekend! Shawn arranged a welcome fiesta in my room for my 40th birthday and it was beyond magical. There was even a framed photo of my family on the table! Every detail was considered and Shawn went above and beyond. You can tell from the minute you talk to her that she loves her job and has a passion to please. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I WILL 100% USE HER FOR ALL MY FUTURE TRIPS!

Shawn Goldberg responded:I am SO ecstatic to hear how special your 40th BDay trip was --- the fact that John Mayer and Dead and Co. were staying at Rosewood Mayakoba at the same time as you could be the best bday present ever! I so enjoyed working with you and can't wait to plan your next adventure!

Perfect Hawaiian Vacation!
Shawn is great to work with when planning a vacation big or small. She is very knowledgeable about so many vacation destinations, as well as the best resorts in those areas. She also adds a personal touch by sharing her own favorite restaurants/activities for places she's been to. Shawn is extremely approachable and easy to work with. We will absolutely have Shawn help us plan our future vacation adventures!

A knowledgeable, detail-oriented travel advisor.
Shawn is knowledgeable about many Caribbean and was a great help in making a decision about where to go. She recommended a beautiful, posh, luxurious resort but was able to get us a deep discount. She took care of every detail including making reservations for our day trips and dinners at fabulous restaurants on the island. We didn't have to do a thing except enjoy the beach and the sublime food. We will be using her for all our future travels.

A perfect family vacation
I first approached Shawn regarding information on a cruise line that we had been thinking about taking for years. We have 5 children ranging in ages from 17-7 and wanted a fun vacation that the whole family could enjoy effortlessly. She suggested another cruise line that was best suited for our teenage children as well as the younger kids. We had the BEST vacation ever!! It really helped that Shawn understood the family dynamic of having older and younger siblings and as parents we wanted a vacation too! At first time cruisers there was a lot of info to navigate, Shawn did it all. We are planning our next adventure with her now. Europe!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends
Shawn Goldberg responded:I am SO thrilled that your family had such a great time! I knew that both your teenagers and little ones would have SO many options! A first cruise is a big step and I appreciate your taking a leap of faith and putting your trust in me! Looking forward to planning a European vacation that everyone can enjoy!

Best Trip Ever
I had a phenomenal experience working with Shawn. She made everything very easy. She planned my trip to Puerto Rico as well as my most recent trip to Lake Placid. Shawn is easy to work with, extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented. She is happy to answer any and all questions to ensure the best possible experience for you. Most importantly, Shawn understood the needs and wants of my family and helped me plan my trip accordingly. Her suggestions and ideas were spot on and she even researched activities and helped us book our tubing and water skiing experience along with many other fun excursions. I have already called Shawn regarding my family's next trip!

Won't Travel Again Without Shawn!
I have used Shawn to plan multiple trips - from a weekend getaway to Nashville, to a beach vacation in Cabo San Lucas - to most recently a trip to Greece. Unfortunately, we had to put our Greece trip on hold due to Covid- 19 . We looked to Shawn to guide us through the process of cancelling and postponing and she gave us THE best possible advice, resulting in our receiving a full refund for our (very pricey) Business Class tickets to Greece. We will certainly re-book this trip with Shawn, but I was very glad to have a refund rather than a credit with the airline. I would ONLY trust Shawn with our travel plans going forward. Not only is she very skilled at her craft, but she will 100 % have your back as a client and will always look out for your best interests.

Shawn Goldberg responded:Drew - Taking care of my clients is always my number one priority. When unforeseen events hamper travel plans, my job is to make it as painless for you as possible. I will always advocate for you and do whatever I can to do right be you! Looking forward to making your Greece trip happen as soon as humanly possible!
