Best Birthday Trip
Alice was wonderful and made sure that we had the perfect trip. She was responsive before and during the trip when we had questions and everything that she booked exceeded our expectations. The hotels were great, all the transportation services were on time and friendly, and we had no issue with anything the entire trip. The itinerary and app were very helpful and informative. We will absolutely be using this company again.”

Memories of a lifetime!
Alice has been a true professional, but also friend and oracle during our trip of a lifetime. We traveled a month long through many national parks which was a real challenge to plan but she managed to organise this for us so incredibly well. We enjoyed a wide variety of activities and stayed time and again in the most beautiful locations. And even during the trip itself she was always there for us. We've never experienced such a supportive and knowledgeable travel agent before.

Best Birthday Trip
Visiting Glacier National Park for the first time is overwhelming. There are so many places to stay, park reservations to manage, and hundreds of miles of hikes to choose from. Alice was a lifesaver. She listened to what my wife and I were looking for in a birthday trip and booked stays, restaurants, and recommended hikes accordingly. Before getting into the specifics, EVERY detail was spot on. Even with three different hotel stays, we didn’t have a single issue with check-in or any logistics throughout the entire trip.
As a final word, when Alice says she cares about her clients, she means it.
We could not have been happier with our choice to go with Alice and will do so again the next time we are able to visit Glacier!
