I Love My Clients

There are days where this job can be very taxing. Missed flights, lost bags, and a laundry list of other unexpected travel fumbles. There are days where I want to pull my hair out. Then there are days where all the stress and aggravation seem worth it. I wanted to share a postcard I received from one of my favorite clients. Along with a few quotes from a few others.

I worked tirelessly to make sure that her birthday trip to Italy was perfect. I custom built her journey from the ground up. From private transfer and exclusive Tuscany tours to, rail tickets and dinner reservations. I did it all.

Travel agents are here to assist you. Travel agents have the experience and time to give your dream trip the attention it deserves. Travel agents are a phone call away when you miss your connecting flights. Travel agents are there to contact the hotel to let them know it’s your 25th anniversary. Travel agents are there to help you choose a different destination when there is a hurricane heading towards the one you currently booked. Travel agents can waive fees and move mountains sometimes in sticky situations.

So, next time you are planning a trip, and you think that it’s just as easy to book on Expedia or, Hotels.com remember this :

Hi, I'm Tracy Kirssin Hanes

For over two decades, I’ve helped my clients explore and experience the world by seeking out the best it has to offer and sharing it with them by creating bespoke dream vacations. As a travel consultant, my work is so much more than booking hotel rooms, securing a rental car, and juggling a lot of logistics. (Though, of course, I take care of all that stuff too.) It’s about lining up those one-of-a-kind experiences that make you fall in love with a new place. All you have to do is pack your bags.

Nice to meet you!
