The trip and your service were great. The site was really helpful in the planning process, giving me an idea of possible routes. As far as hotel selection, there were so many choices and the cost very competitive. Checking in the hotels with vouchers was seamless, no confusion with the staff of any kind. All I had to do is to give them my vouchers. So all in all, everything went well and I truly appreciate your services!
