We had a fantastic trip and RoutePerfect was an ENORMOUS help in our planning process! The planning was a breeze through RoutePerfect, even when we had to make a few hotel changes, it was all handled VERY smoothly. I could not be more pleased. We will definitely use RoutePerfect.com again when planning our next big trip! Thanks again, I love your site and recommend it unreservedly.

The route planning facility was a pleasure. Your prices were very competitive and made staying in some very nice hotels possible. I double checked every hotel's rate and we saved a fortune booking through you. Your website style makes planning fun, just the way it should be. I have already recommended your site to everybody and we will definitely be using it in the future. I am already getting excited about using it to plan our next trip.
