What are people saying about Meridith?

'When Meridith is helping with my travel plans, the attention she gives me makes me feel as though I am her most important customer.' J.S. St. Paul, MN The honeymoon was FABULOUS...great hotel picks, they were perfect in every town. I especially loved that we were upgraded to “superior” rooms...everything went so smoothly. I have told several people already that going through a travel agent was the best way to go – I will pass your name on to others as I hear about their travel plans. Thank you so much for all of your help! K.T. Plymouth, MN

Meridith is the best. Great attention to detail, whether it's a complicated family trip or standard business travel. She also finds the interesting places to stay, fun things to do, and reviews from other travelers. Meridith is fantastic, and we greatly appreciate the 20 years worth of great work.

Amazing trip!
Meridith was amazing to work with planning our first family trip overseas! She made a few suggestions that I declined, and now that I’ve made the trip, I wish we would have taken her advice. Although our trip was fabulous, from fantastic accommodations to coordinated transportation, if we did it again, I would take her recommendations to take the train to more cities to expand our experience. I highly recommend Meridith for your travel needs. She was great!!
