Alyssa provided excellent recommendations and was so attentive to our questions throughout the entire planning process! She even surprised us with an in hotel treat basket which was so appreciated! We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Alyssa and Travel Able !

Alyssa worked hard to quickly turn around a vacation proposal that met our family’s needs and price point. She gave us four great options and we ended up loving the one we chose which was a ocean front hotel with a great 2 bedroom option for our family and a beautiful porch overlooking the gardens and ocean view. Using Alyssa really allowed us to relax, and she took care of all the little details (car seat in airport transfer), reminders about Covid procedures where we were going, etc. Also she was extremely responsive, which was so helpful for booking and also any follow up. Highly recommend working with Alyssa you won’t regret it!

Simply effortless. Alyssa made everything simple and kept us confident and excited for our trip throughout the process.

It all started with the question: "What do you want from this trip?" Well we wanted A LOT from trip and when I say Alyssa delivered, that is not an exaggeration. When we've gone on trips in the past, my fiance and I tend to pack a lot into one day and run around trying to get to everything. Alyssa helped us narrow down our choices while also making sure we had time to eat, breathe and sleep. Alyssa's advice on how to get through jet lag, the best place to get cash overseas, tipping at restaurants, where to find the best steak and ale pies, etc. really saved us. This was the trip of a lifetime and thats all thanks to Alyssa and the wonderful people of the UK.

I booked a trip for Paris through Alyssa for myself and my friend. I was very satisfied. Alyssa was very detailed and thorough. She gave us recommendations (which we loved) and provided a nice itinerary. Even when we experienced difficulties on the first day, she responded right away and helped us deal with the situation and even followed through to make sure it was handled.

Alyssa was friendly, helpful, and competent from the very beginning. Traveling internationally during the global pandemic was challenging, but Alyssa came through every twist and turn with workable solutions. I can’t thank her enough for her help.

Alyssa was great! I haven’t used a travel agent in years but between covid travel restrictions and a complicated itinerary, I needed help and she was fantastic. She was able to get all of us where we needed to go with excellent follow up once we were ticketed. It was very reassuring to know she was on top of it all.
Karen
We had the best vacation and did not have to plan a thing! Alyssa was able to accommodate us with not one but two changes in our room/hopper pass. We had an adjoining room with my daughter and granddaughters that was not expected but appreciated. Everything was perfect!
Sheri
What a fantastic experience working with Alyssa! She helped us plan a truly wonderful family vacation to Florence Italy where we visited our eldest daughter, who is studying abroad. Yes she booked all the typical items you would expect from a travel agent. However, we had to contact Alyssa several times during the trip to help us navigate excursions and kept her up very late one night while she reworked our flights home due to a plane delay. She went above and beyond for us and can’t wait to use her services again!

Alyssa made our dream vacation to France a reality! My wife and I wanted to celebrate our 5-year anniversary with a big trip and turned to Alyssa’s expertise in traveling in France to plan an unforgettable trip. Instead of spending countless hours perusing Trip Advisor ourselves and guessing at what the best experiences would be, we discussed our dream trip to Paris with Alyssa, including our budget and our travel preferences.
Alyssa was patient and flexible with our very particular likes and dislikes and curated a custom made itinerary for us, complete with restaurant recommendations and travel tips. She worked overtime to replace a wine and cheese tasting tour on our itinerary after we told her my wife was pregnant with our firstborn. She quickly booked us a more pregnant-friendly pastry and chocolate tour of St. Germain (a delightful, intimate experience with a knowledgeable guide that I would HIGHLY recommend). The trip ended up being everything we hoped for and more.
August in Paris meant beautiful weather and lots of outdoor activities, but also lots of crowds and lots of businesses were closed for the month. But this only made me *more* appreciative of Alyssa’s travel planning and grateful that we had booked most of our essential experiences before we left. Everything she booked for us (including transportation once we arrived, which typically stresses me out the most) went smoothly, with not one significant snag, hiccup or problem to speak of.
Alyssa’s communication is clear, attentive, and enthusiastic. She helped with all of our requests and answered all of our questions and concerns. She even booked us the *perfect* hotel in Dublin when she found out we had an overnight layover there on the way home.
I highly recommend that you reach out to Alyssa with all of your travel planning needs, wants, questions, concerns…anything! You will not regret it and will leave with memories that last a lifetime!

Alyssa makes the fun parts of planning a trip more fun and makes the challenging parts much easier. When planning a summer trip (our first with her), I said "We want to see the Eiffel Tower." At the start of planning, we knew only that much; her subsequent questions and suggestions gave rise to an amazing road trip including multiple cities. She remembers our family structure with each trip we plan and tailors her suggestions accordingly. Her email communication is clear, prompt, and organized. She can even troubleshoot; on one trip, we encountered an unexpected attraction closure, and she promptly responded to my email and helped us get a refund. I can't imagine planning a trip without her guidance!
Matt A.
Alyssa was truly fantastic. We wanted to take a multi-generational trip with my mom and our 18-month old son. Alyssa took our budget and created an itinerary that was perfect. She also was able to get some additional excursions planned on short notice and helped us quickly get a refund when one of the tours we booked no-showed. We are going to use Alyssa for all of our international trips in the future.
Carrie L.
Alyssa was absolutely fantastic helping us plan our trip to Switzerland. Not only did she choose the best places to stay, see and do, but we ended up having to switch our dates last minute and Alyssa made it much less stressful to rearrange our itinerary. I would highly recommend her to help plan your next big trip!

Alyssa is so knowledgeable and answered all my questions promptly. All I had to do was show up and everything was taken care of. She informed us of all the tips & tricks of a Disney cruise to make our cruise more magical.

Alyssa helped to plan our honeymoon and it was not only a dream vacation, but a dream working with her! She was quick to communicate and let us know all of our options so we were able to select the right options. Alyssa's expertise meant that she thought through logistics of the trip we never would have considered, and it made the whole experience stress-free. I cannot imagine booking a trip without her!

Alyssa helped with our wedding room block and rehearsal dinner in June 2023. Having her support in navigating that piece of the wedding planning puzzle made everything a breeze. She helped to coordinate with guests, hotels, shuttle service, and event planning. I could not be more thankful to her for staying on top of everything and helping to event keep me organized and meeting deadlines!
Danny S
Alyssa helped us with our flight, hotel and got us a great food tour that my whole family loved. She was so helpful every step of the way and was able to put together and very memorable trip for my entire family. We loved her so much, we are telling all our wedding guests to use Alyssa for our destination wedding back in Ireland!!! Can’t wait to get her help with our next trip!!!
John F
Alyssa is such a personable travel planner for my most memorable trip of my life! My partner and I brought his family to meet mine. She made the trip so smooth and fun! He and I are engaged and we are recommending her services to everyone for our destination wedding. With Alyssa and co, you are in good hands.

Disneyland Paris
Alyssa helped us plan a perfect trip to Disneyland Paris in April 2023. She listened to all of the needs and wants for each of our 4 family member (2 adults and 2 kids) and crafted a trip that was memorable for all. She gave us restaurant suggestions and lots of other tips and tricks. I was so grateful for her guidance!
Susan R
Our trip to Paira Daiza in July 2023 was unquestionably one of the most unique, memorable trips we'll ever have. Alyssa patiently went back and forth with us regarding possible dates because it books far in advance. When I shared that we were struggling to choose a room type (tigers or polar bears) she suggested that we could spend one night in each instead of two in the same. This turned out to be the perfect suggestion. She even ensured that hotel staff would move our bags for us while we were exploring on day two; all we had to do was pack up and then go have fun. It's a bucket list item I didn't even know I had until she told us about the place a year prior. We're so thankful we had the chance to experience it!
Susan R
My family has been blessed to do a lot of travel under Alyssa's guidance, but I think Spain in July 2023 may have been my children's favorite overall trip. My younger child still talks about the treats we received poolside at our hotel in Madrid, and my older child still talks about the food at the resort in Mallorca (as well as talks about the beach and pool). Clearly we like food! :) Alyssa knows this and made sure, as she does for every trip, that we have plenty of restaurant suggestions and plans for activities.
Susan R
There have been many things I've loved about every trip Alyssa has planned for us, but our trip to Greece in September/October 2023 is thus far my favorite overall trip. We visited Athens, Santorini, and Crete. Alyssa found the perfect lodging for us in each place. Locations and service in each were both excellent; we had the perfect mix of staff support and independence. As usual, her restaurant and activity suggestions were on point. I would do that trip over again in a heartbeat!
Susan R
With barely 2 weeks notice, I reached out to Alyssa to plan a last minute trip when my children had a week off of school in February 2024. After asking some questions, Alyssa suggested a trip to Rome, Perugia, and Bologna. I've told people that I ate more in that weeklong trip than I had in the month prior. That's an exaggeration, but we truly had so much superb food! One excursion that Alyssa suggested, and that we agreed to, was a private family friendly cooking class at a farm in the countryside. It was probably my single favorite excursion we've done on any trip. I'm so glad Alyssa found it and suggested it! I get overwhelmed searching for activities and was, as usual, grateful for her guidance.

After graduating from grad school, I wanted to celebrate with my friends at an all inclusive resort in the Caribbean. Alyssa helped us out throughout the process and really took the stress of planning a vacation off our shoulders. Alyssa suggested a few places that fit our preferences which really helped us narrow it down to Punta Cana and we couldn’t have been more satisfied with our pick! The weather was beautiful and the beach was perfect. We were also able to enjoy the many events and parties that were held on the resort as well. Alyssa helped us pick out a great excursion off the resort. She recommended a happy hour cruise and snorkeling which was probably my favorite part of the trip! Alyssa would be a great advisor and guide for your next vacation!

This was better than hoped for. An English countryside visit with real charm. The inn was spectacularly quaint and charming. The rental car was exactly what we needed to get around. The location was conveniently located near all the important places we wanted to visit. When we decided to made a switch mid-trip, Alyssa was quick in responding and getting us set up. All I had was a vague idea of what I wanted, and Alyssa turned it into a really amazing trip. I can’t get over how much I enjoyed this trip.
Sam W
When I set out to surprise my fiance with his first ever cruise I had no idea what to look for or where to start. After speaking with Alyssa I was able to narrow it down and get exactly what I wanted for us. The very first thing my fiance said after sitting down at the cruise bar with his first drink was, "We have to thank Alyssa." Relaxing is not his strong suit but not having to worry about planning anything was like a breath of fresh air for both of us. Alyssa even helped us with planning an excursion outside of the cruise line. While we both look a little bit like lobsters, we are happy, relaxed, smiling, and ready to book our next cruise. THANK YOU ALYSSA.

London & Scotland
I've dreamed about visiting Scotland for years and am grateful that Alyssa helped make it happen. As we usually do when planning a trip with her, we gave her our dates and a tentative idea of things we wanted to see. She drafted a proposal and continuously adjusted it based on our feedback. (I value her guidance but appreciate that she knows it's "our" trip and ensures it remains personalized.) We visited London, Edinburgh, Fort William, Isle of Skye, and Inverness. In multiple cities, she gave suggestions of activities that would be enjoyable for our family of 2 children and 2 adults; she makes sure there is something for everyone. My family enjoyed 16 days of good food, good drink, and good scenery. Thank you, Alyssa!

This is the second trip I've booked with Alyssa, and it was another fantastic experience! Alyssa was extremely helpful in planning and preparing us for our trip to Greece. Alyssa is super responsive and works quickly to plan trips with multiple stops. She picked wonderful accommodations and planned last minute excursions to make our trip memorable. I love the security of knowing that I can reach out to Alyssa when I'm in a foreign country in case we need her travel expertise. I highly recommend working with Alyssa to book your next trip!
Susan R
Alyssa helped us craft a memorable 2 week trip to Sicily. She even rearranged the trip when we wanted to change the order of cities in the planning process. I felt confident going into the trip that we had a good mix of activities and relaxation planned. When we encounted a problem with one of our hotels mid-trip, she was quick to respond to my request for help and assisted in booking alternate accomodations. It was comforting to have her as a safety net! I am already at work planning our next trip with her. :)
Susan R
Our 2-week trip to Ireland planned by Alyssa was a highlight of our summer. She helped us find wonderful hotels (some truly luxurious) and activities in 5 different locations. We have planned many trips with her by now, and her suggestions are personalized to our family's preferences. Already at work on the next trip!
Ashley M
We worked with Alyssa to plan our honeymoon to Costa Rica in April 2024. Through our logistical meetings, discussions about our 'travel preferences', and getting to know our interests, Alyssa planned us a trip we will be remembering for years to come! Everything was carefully planned out and we were able to explore different parts of the country with none of the stress of travel planning (and maximum luxury within our budget!). She planned a trip that was truly 'us' and was even accessible while we were travelling for any questions/support. We won't be travelling internationally without her again!
Audrey Pallini
Just returned from a spectacular trip to Sardinia with a friend to celebrate our Jubilee!
Having Alyssa's help not only before, when planning, but during as well, when weather delays caused some hiccups, was a godsend. My friends missed connection left me alone and on a solo mission to fly from Rome, get the rental car, and drive to the hotel. Alyssa was always fast on the replies and assistance.
I cannot thank her enough! . With her kindness, stellar customer service, and knowledge, I will surely be using her future travels.
Susan R
We had another fabulous trip with Alyssa. Unfortunately, we experienced a first: one of our kids got sick a few days into the trip. I reached out to Alyssa to modify part of our trip to allow our kiddo time to recover. It was a relief to have her support during that experience. When everyone was healthy, we were able to enjoy top notch hotels and food. We're always grateful to have her, and this time was no different.

Alyssa went above and beyond to make our cruise booking experience seamless and stress-free. She secured the perfect stateroom for our trip from NJ/Bayonne to the Bahamas — something other agencies struggled to find! Her expertise and efficiency were unmatched as she walked us through the entire booking process quickly and thoroughly. We’re beyond grateful for her outstanding service and will definitely turn to her for future travel plans. Highly recommend!
Matt A
Alyssa knocked it out of the park yet again. We had to completely change our travel arrangements on extremely short notice, switching from an international destination to a domestic one. Alyssa was extremely responsive. She got our initial arrangements cancelled and credited back to us, then found a great alternative here in the U.S. in a matter of days. We recommend Alyssa to everyone we can and will keep using her for all of our travel needs.
Leila B
Fantastic. We wanted to make our kid’s 10th birthday special, and, boy, was it. We were floored at the number of things that came with the package. Not only that, as the main coordinator of family logistics, I didn't have to think about getting to or from the airport, allowing me to focus my attention on our trip.
As always, I simply gave Alyssa an idea, and she made it amazing. I couldn’t have imagined doing this without her.
Sam W
My fiance and I wanted to surprise his parents by taking them on a cruise for their 40th wedding anniversary and Alyssa made it all happen. We were able to surprise them with the trip at Christmas and they were floored! Cut to last week and the second we stepped on the ship, they both said, "We need to do this again." Thanks to Alyssa for making the surprise happen. I'm sure they will be calling her to help plan their next cruise!

From the beginning, the planning of our trip, Alyssa was kind and attentive to our wishes. She heard where were wanted to go and planned a wonderful trip for my husband and myself. She handled flights, transportation and lodging all of which transitioned wonderfully and got us to each destination just as scheduled. The destinations both had day trips included and we loved it all! I will recommend her for all your travels! Completely satisfied with our experience with Travelable and Alyssa!

With fairly minimal notice, Alyssa helped us plan a 2 week Summer Break trip to Italy and navigated our requests and changes along the way. Despite it being peak travel season, we landed great hotels that met, and in some cases exceeded, our needs and desires. As always, she provided excellent restaurant and excursion recommendations. We've returned full and fulfilled and are already planning our next trip with her. We're so grateful for the support!

Alyssa was amazing to work with; can't believe we have planned vacations without her services! We had a family trip planned leaving from NY to Barcelona to Naples to Rome. Alyssa provided all the right recommendations for the proper tours for the destinations we wanted to see and ideas for things we had not thought about including a walking food tour in Barcelona which could not have been better! She was able to get us secured for tours that were sold out online including Sagrada Familia; super grateful! All of the tours she planned for us were superb with guides who were fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable. The driver booked from Sorento to Rome was wonderful; showed up early and provided incredible service door to door. Alyssa, you made our trip amazing and you will be hearing from us again when we're planning our next trip.
