Linda did an awesome job. She selected wonderful hotels and even change one when she had it checked out. It just happened to be one that I requested but her network of people told her we might not be happy there. We checked for out when we were there and she was right! Everything was laid out in our itinerary down to how much to tip and who we didn't need to tip. All of our tour guides were top notch and really made the trip so much better. She has a fantastic amount of knowledge about Italy and wants you to have her love of the country. Next time we go to Italy we will be using Linda.

Absolutely had the perfect trip for my birthday celebration! Every detail and minute was picture perfect and the only downside was I had to come home! Linda was spot on.

I cannot say enough about how great Laura and her team were at assisting me. They are also very knowledgeable when it comes to international travel. The itinerary put together for our trip was just what we wanted. Will 100% utilize this team again for our next international trip!

Laura was responsive to every question I had, and she responds quickly. Travel during this time of COVID is very stressful and constantly changing. I appreciate how Laura tries to help in every way possible even when the answers do not come easily.

Sarah's love for travel started as a child on a Christmas trip to St Croix, with vivid memories of lights in palm trees against a backdrop of beautiful blue water. Her interest has since expanded to include her most-memorable trip yet -- a safari to South Africa -- as well as vacations to Italy, France, Costa Rica, Alaska, Canada, Ireland, Greece, and more.

The way I see it is that the more I work, the more I can afford to travel. Traveling, gardening, photography, and the sun are four of my biggest luxuries. I feel deprived when I don't have one of these pleasures in my life at all times. Travel is very personal and there are many things that can make or break a trip. What one person loves, another can hate. When you work with Young Travel, we work hard to find the perfect trip for you.
