My wife and I absolutely LOVED your website and it was a fantastic tool in our planning for our recent trip through Italy. The hotels and all accommodations were perfect and exactly as we requested. We will definitely be using your service again soon as we plan for our trip next summer to Portugal. We've already told many people who have asked what travel agent we used for the planning of our trip...Our answer was... RoutePerfect.com

Your planning tool is a real help. It made the planning process so easy and provided some savings as well. Everything went as expected and there was really no problem :) Wish u best luck in expanding RoutePerfect in the future. I advised your site to all my friends - it is a must to plan it this way.
