"In my 20 or so years of retired travel, I have worked with several travel advisors, and I find Julianne soars heads above the flock!
She goes the extra mile in research, planning, and looking for special and unique experiences. I know I can count on her when I'm on an adventure to help if a problem occurs, which is rare because of her competence in advanced work.
She is a master at working long distances via the internet and phone calls.
Julianne is simply the very best!"
