Superior Expertise and Fantastic Service
By: Andrew
Reviewed on: 18 May 2016
Patrick planned and arranged a complex trip for my wife and me as well as another couple. It included airfare, hotel stays in multiple European cities, a river cruise, specialty tours, and car rentals. He provided super service with a variety of alternatives and guidance allowing the decision making process to be fun and easy. He found great airfares for us; booked us in terrific hotels with upgrades and extras at no cost; picked the perfect cruise; and, the car rental process was the smoothest we've ever experienced. He communicated with us to check on things during the trip as well as afterwards. I would highly recommend him!

Legendary Experience
By: Gaylen
Reviewed on: 07 Oct 2016
Patrick was nothing short of amazing! His recommendations were perfect and his attention to detail was impeccable. Our hotel arrangements included special amenities at no additional cost (exceptional value) and the excursion tours were the best we have ever experienced. I particularly appreciated the small group tours that he recommended which gave us an opportunity to have a more personal experience. Through his travel app we were kept informed of every detail of our trip (hotels, excursions, and airline and train arrangements). Updates (if any) were seamlessly sent to us through the app which became our "go to" trip tool. Thank you, Patrick, was making our Italy experience exceptional in every way. We look forward to working with you for many years to come.

Patrick made our trip to Europe (Italy) the trip of a lifetime. He planned every aspect (transportation, hotels, tours, etc), which could not have been better. He recommended and booked the best personalized tours and had our ground transportation (rental car, train and personal driver) details organized flawlessly. We can't wait to schedule our next trip and, of course, we will be contacting Patrick to help us with all the details.

Patrick was terrific. My trip was complicated by knee surgery so suddenly I needed assistance getting around. Patrick stepped in and made my travel seamless.

I found Patrick via a google search while looking for a travel agent that could offer certain hotel program benefits. He responded to my initial inquiry right away and even responded to followup emails right away while he was out of office. My trip went smoothly and Patrick was even nice enough to send a bottle of wine and some snacks to my room. I'd highly recommend using him if you have the chance.

Ritz Aruba

Reviewed on: 19 Jan 2018
I worked with Patrick, The Travel Maestro, to set up a family trip to the Ritz in Aruba over the holidays this year and I can not say enough about this very positive experience and the level of service that he provided. All of the trip details from start to finish were perfect. The extra perks like comp breakfast daily, arrival gift and resort credit was a bonus! When my flight home got cancelled due to weather I went to the front desk to request to stay an extra night. I was told that the hotel was full and they had no rooms available. I quickly contacted Patrick and within a half hour received a confirmation from him that we in fact could stay another night and we didn't even have to move rooms. All in all, great service, great communication and great attn. to details.

Italian Honeymoon
By: AK
Reviewed on: 04 Jun 2019
Patrick was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. He understands the vibe/type of vacation we were looking to plan and he suggested hotels and experiences that aligned to our vision. Further, he gave us a manageable number of suggestions and options. It's incredibly helpful that he is able to do that, since the primary reason we started working with a travel agent was to avoid the analysis paralysis you can get if you try to tackle planning the trip yourself via travel websites and other traveler's reviews.

Working with Patrick was a fantastic experience. He was not only incredibly prompt and informative, but he was also beyond helpful in securing us the best possible experience we could have had. Truly fenomenal service and expertise. I would say that it would be hard to find someone more qualified to have found us a dream vacation in such a short time, but then again, I don’t have to. Patrick is the guy you want, and the travel advisor that we’ll continue to come to. I highly recommend at least checking in with him before going to someone else - if you don’t, you could be missing a deal/trip of a lifetime.
