I came across your site and immediately found it extremely user-friendly and easy to navigate. All of the available options, the layout, the mapping ability, and the hotel selection simulation and pricing calculations were honestly as easy as the click of the button. The live and direct links to TripAdvisor were extremely helpful! I have to say, despite reading the testimonials, I was really nervous about using it, but eventually your site proved to just have better pricing overall and easier mode of selection. And I realized everything worked SO SMOOTHLY! Every check-in experience was ultimately seamless. It left more time for enjoying our travel :) I honestly believe that using RoutePerfect was one of the best online customer experiences I have ever had, if not THE BEST. Your staff was extremely responsive, and made me feel truly at ease by being friendly, courteous and reassuring. RoutePerfect is honestly THE BEST TRIP PLANNING tool I have ever used. I have already recommended RoutePerfect to my group of friends. And I honestly can't wait to use your site for booking my next European adventure.
