Valerie is an absolute delight to work with and has seen us through several cruises now and we will continue to work with her as long as she's still doing it. We recommend her to any friends that even flirt with the idea of wanting to take a cruise cause we know they'll be in good hands.

Planning a wedding is scary, planning a wedding in a foreign country where you need to get your family and friends to the destination is downright frightening; however Valerie of Windblown Travel made this one of the easiest and most memorable experiences of our lives. From the moment we contacted Valerie she answered every single text, call and email in a timely manner and with a knowledgeable response. She helped to make sure our group was booked with ease.
I would highly recommend Valerie for all your travel needs. I am grateful to her for all her hard work. She definitely a travel agent we will be working with in the future!

Best Travel Agent!

The issue is not whether you should use a travel agent, but rather WHICH ONE. I’ve used many but have never used one more than once…until now! There are 3 things you want from a travel agent. Accuracy of information, knowledge of the industry, and responsiveness. With Valerie you get all three…and you get it consistently! She’s quick…you won’t be waiting around not knowing when (or if) she will get back to you. Valerie travels these same destinations and knows what she is talking about. She learns your tastes and will be able to steer you clear of things she knows you won’t like. She will get you the best bang for your buck, where you may mistakenly book a substandard property…or even cruise ship…if you do it yourself. I definitely HIGHLY RECOMMEND Valerie!

Best travel agent ever!

Valerie ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy our trip. She was always available to assist when we had questions/concerns and made sure all our ducks were in a row for out flight and cruise. Even up to the day before our flight when we thought we'd run into issues with COVID vaccinations/tests, Valerie made sure we had the correct information and assured us everything would be fine, and it was! We had the time of our lives!

Valerie was incredible, always got back to us fast and did some amazing work even when doing her own traveling. We've literally mentioned her to every friend we know thinking about cruising.

THE PERFECT HONEYMOON

Valerie was great! She was so easy to work with. I gave her my ideas of what I was looking for in my honeymoon. She put together a few options for me right away. I never had to wait for a response. I've never worked with a travel agent before, but I'll be sure to work with Valerie again. She made my vacation a true vacation with nothing to worry about

MEMORIES FOR A LIFETIME!

Pure perfection! Valerie was the first travel agent we've engaged with for a trip and we could not have been more pleased. From the initial land/cruise tour booking to excursion choices to onboard experiences, she was there every step of the way keeping us informed and answering questions. (Valerie has the patience of a Saint when it comes to answering questions, and I had plenty!) She is not only professional, but friendly and compassionate to your needs. I was able to witness this first-hand when a family member in our party had a medical emergency. Her immediate response and communication between Princess and the family was not only impressive, but very reassuring to everyone involved. Overall, an excellent experience. Can't wait to book our next trip with her! Thank you, Valerie!

Valerie was great. She help me create a fun and exciting itinerary for our Alaska trip without all of the headache. I was extremely overwhelmed and she was able to take control and make sure we were taken care of completely. Certainly one of the best TAs I’ve ever worked with.

PRIVATE EXCURSION FOR THE WIN!
So I was on the Mayapan excursion as was a friend, my sister and our cousin. We all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and being of Mexican origin, visiting that Mayan village and eating at the home was the BEST experience ever! The food reminded us of our Grandmother's cooking (Mexican side of family of course!) and was sooo good! I was a little disappointed that the cenote did not have a seating area for just hanging your legs (there was a dock but it was very wet and slippery) but that does not lower my 5 star review (out of 5 stars of course!) as my Sister and Cousin had never been to a cenote so they were thrilled and had a great time. I loved that the entire tour was very small and personal and the guide had so much history to tell us, who knew there were still full blood Mayans in the world?! My review is for my entire group, I talked to them and they agreed with me, so 5 stars from all 4 of us! 
Valerie had been great about keeping us up to date on every thing concerning the excursions and even going out of your way to add more for those that initially missed out!
Best Travel agent I have ever worked with!
