It was my first time traveling to Europe and I didn't even know where to begin. I don't think I could have planned my trip without RoutePerfect. I used RoutePerfect to book all my accommodations and I am glad I did. It was so easy and I was able to customize my trip to fit my budget. My hotel in Karlovy Vary was the nicest I've ever stayed at.

We were very happy with the service we received from RoutePerfect. Planning was so much fun and it was easy to play around with the different itineraries. We had no problems and it was extremely convenient to use the vouchers. The location of the hotels were great and according to what we expected. I also love the fact that you can select different budgets and modify these as well as the suggested itinerary.
