Firstly thanks a lot. Our honeymoon trip was awesome. Our hotels and your services were great. It was really helpful. Not even for a second we felt that we planned things all on our own through this website. This site is really perfect. THUMBS UP!!

Your website was a gem to find online. It gave me a sense of what our girls could do on a trip to Spain. Ultimately, your website was the deciding factor on how to accomplish their trip. Your support team was awesome. As we developed a relationship, they were more than helpful. The two times we asked for changes during the trip, customer support was on board to help. It was a good feeling to hear back from them with multiple choices and I never felt like it was a pain for them. Bottom line... we love RoutePerfect.
