The trip went very well and the hotels that we stayed in were very nice. I would say the overall experience with RoutePerfect was good and if we go another trip like that we will go back to the website.

Planning was fun and your crew was really helpful. I had a problem with the website accepting my credit card, and I panicked because my first choice for a Berlin hotel was unavailable when I re-entered my info. I found out it had gone through and I had paid twice. The support team was very quick to get my refund. The accommodations were good. I was satisfied with RoutePerfect and have already recommended it to friends!
