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.

My trip with RoutePerfect went great! At first I was a little skeptical since the hotel prices were a lot cheaper than I had anticipated it to be. As soon as I paid for the hotels I quickly received an email confirmation with all of my reservations. The website was really user friendly and I thoroughly enjoyed using it. I have told all of my friends about how great the website is and I will be using the website again for my future travels.
