Working with Leslie was a joy! She handled every detail and made our multi-destination trip seamless and special. I would recommend Leslie to anyone traveling to the destinations that are her areas of expertise!

Leslie was so helpful planning our trip to Mexico. Not only does her passion and excitement for travel make the whole process easy and fun, she was able to work within some difficult constraints with our dietary restrictions and found an incredible place for us to stay. Booking transportation and everything through her made the whole thing so easy and gave us peace of mind leading up to, and through the whole trip.

We highly recommend Leslie Brindley for your travel needs! She took the time to get to know us as a family and learned about our interests, likes & dislikes pertaining to travel. We challenged her with a complicated itinerary which she designed beautifully. We enjoyed a variety of activities as well as some much needed built-in leisure time during our 2 week trip. Our college-age sons enjoyed the activities and also had time to explore on their own. We will definitely hire Leslie again for our future travels!
