Testimonials

Hi Carol, I'm finally sending you our email testimonial. Hope its useful.

For our 20th wedding anniversary, we finally made the commitment to take our dream trip to Ireland. We typically do our own travel arrangements, but knew this was too important to take chances. Thanks to the superior professionalism of Carol Samela of Cruise Planners, we had the trip of a lifetime! My husband is sort of picky with his own ideas of how the trip should go, but right from the start Carol took all of our concerns to heart and helped us design the perfect trip for us. We did not experience a single glitch from hotel reservations, to airport transfers, everything went perfectly! Best of all - no complaints from my husband! He thoroughly enjoyed himself and we had the greatest anniversary! We are already trying to decide what special trip Carol can help us with next! We would recommend her to friends, family, or anyone who might ask!

 Thanks Carol!

DEAR CAROL:

A  brief note to let you know we had an awesome trip! Great fun, great rest, great sights! and the best dinner we had was because of you!!

Thank you for  the courtesy of your voucher inviting us to dine at Sabatini's.  If not fort that, we would have most likely not made the effort, and yet it was our most impressive dining experience!  see the pic  - from left front - that is me with the black dress,  Belinda is behind -  to my left,  her brother in law (Ariel) next to her- at left, followed by his wife Leoni  - in front forward (Belinda's sister).

Thanks again - we'll have to plan another one sometime in near future!

Warm regards,

Vivian

Carol,

Elaine and I want to thank you for your efforts in making the Trip to Antarctica most memorable.  I'm sure you'll agree, all trips are what you make them! Montevideo and Buenos Aires were very busy cities. We cruised for 4 cool and clear days around various interesting places about Antarctica.  One day we boarded lecturers based at Palmer Station, they gave us some very interesting facts on the life at the station for the Antarctic summer.  I enjoyed watching and listening to the rapport between the people as they departed and the ship personnel off loaded fresh fruit and vegetables to the Zodiacs they returned to Palmer Station in.

We both enjoy the size of the Holland American ships.  The crew on the Rotterdam were excellent, courteous, polite and helpful.  The food was excellent and we had a variety of choices at dinner, along with excellent desserts.  We had thought of going back this Christmas, but decided our trip there could not have been better! 

Having done that, we will try some other trip!

Thanks again,

Ron and Elaine Seguin
