We found your website very easy and intuitive. We were able to customize our trip and learn details about the various cities. We were a bit nervous about ordering our hotels on the spot. When we got to our first destination and handed the voucher to the receptionist and they confirm that everything was okay, then that's when we relaxed smiled and said this is really cool. We set up for different accommodations and everything was perfect. We will definitely consider using RoutePerfect again and we will definitely recommend RoutePerfect to other people.

We were very satisfied with our trip! It went very smoothly thanks to RoutePerfect. You went over and above my expectations! When we needed to change hotels on our itinerary, your staff was accessible by phone, willing to help, and promptly made the changes that I needed. Thank you for your website, it's very helpful and user friendly.
