PAOLO

GREECE | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 9 DAYS

“We have been back from our Grecian dream vacation for about two weeks now, and have never felt better. My husband is active duty military and advance planning isn’t always in our favor. However, when we got our travel dates approved by his chain of command, we had a little less than a month and half before leaving and chose to enlist Travel Escape’s Michelle Barth, to make this a reality for us. This wasn’t just an ordinary vacation, we were celebrating my husband’s 30th birthday, alongside my golden birthday and leading up to our 3rd wedding anniversary celebrations. Michelle was really candid with us about this being short notice- however, she worked her magic and within a week of reaching out to her we had a full itinerary and 8 days so meticulously thought out and planned + booked in Greece. We were overwhelmed when researching how to get around, where to stay, best beach clubs etc. She made sure we stayed in 5 star resorts and that details and luxury were present in every step of our travel. We started in Athens, moved our way to Mykonos, then Santorini and ended our travel with another night in Athens. Each time we checked in to our hotel, we were greeted with notes, travel vouchers and fruit and wine, compliments of Michelle. The best surprise we had was in Santorini when we were already in awe of our hotel, only to find out we had been upgraded to a private suite.This was all thanks to Michelle of course. We will continue utilizing Michelle and Just Escape Travel for all our future travel endeavors, and can’t wait to let her know where we are off to next. I 100% recommend her.

Disclaimer: I am a control freak, highly detail oriented, and constantly research within the hospitality space (best hotels, restaurants, nightlife) as it overlaps with my career and past experiences. My friends and family always come to me to book restaurants and pick them for special occasions whether it be in Vegas, San Diego, LA or New York (where we are from). I do like to control where I go and ensure I am at the “hottest spots” so turning this over to Michelle was difficult for me. However, I do not regret this decision and feel as though I couldn’t have done a better job myself! She saved us stress and time, and made me the go-to Greece travel expert with the ability to lend advice, only I didn’t do the research this time.

Thank you SO much Michelle!”

KAUAI | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 8 DAYS

“Michelle was awesome!! Help with every question along the way and was great about getting right back to me, via email or phone. She even returned emails while traveling in Dubai.

FRENCH POLYNESIA | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 10 DAYS

“It was FANTASTIC!!  All the arrangements were first rate.  The transfers between flights/ hotels / boats were wonderful.  We loved the catamaran so much we are thinking about doing an entire week maybe even two the next time. The Vahine Island resort was just magical. We were pinching ourselves it was so awesome. And the service there is the best I’ve ever received anywhere. Moorea was a blast.  The food and location of the hotel were very very good. Michelle, you did a wonderful job putting together a dream vacation. Thank you thank you thank you!!”

JUDY

COSTA RICA | FAMILY ESCAPE | 8 DAYS

“From the outset, working with you was an absolute pleasure. The moment we began filling out our travelers’ profiles, I knew we were in the right hands. You understood us and our hopes for our trip immediately, perhaps even before we did. You made the process of arranging a week-long trip to Costa Rica for a family of eleven seem simple. Your genuine interest in the success of our celebratory travel, your attention to details, your timely response to every email or phone call with every question answered, your advice about which activities to schedule and when to schedule them throughout the week (which was perfect, by the way), your selection of outstanding local companies with fabulous guides and drivers, and your expertise in every aspect of travel – accommodations, airline reservations, travel insurance, etc – are all qualities every travel advisor should have. You are, for sure, the CHIEF – AND THE BEST – ESCAPE ORGANIZER, and we were very fortunate to have found you!”

MEXICO | FAMILY ESCAPE | 8 DAYS

“We had the most spectacular time in Mexico and the memories we created will last a lifetime! From the moment, we got picked up at the airport, complete with cold water & moist cold hand towels, we instantly felt refreshed and excited to commence our amazing journey to Mayakoba. The hotel of ered unparalleled service and great attention to detail from the staf making our stay even more enjoyable. The highlight of our trip was our private tour to Tulum & Tankah – truly wonderful and very informative. Thank you, Michelle, for suggesting such a beautiful place to my family and I.

ROSA

ITALY | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 11 DAYS

“To say that this vacation/trip to Italy was great/awesome puts is lightly… It was the trip of a lifetime!!! My husband and I really cannot find the words to describe how much we enjoyed ourselves. Michelle met with us prior to get some background on what we were really looking for in our vacation to Southern Italy, and I am sure she noted our anniversary.

1. The hotels were right in the middle of what we wanted to do
2. Having an “in country” cell phone more than came in handy when I wanted to call my relatives in county and we also used it to make dinner reservations and for walking directions
3. Staying at a resort/spa on our actual anniversary was GREAT, we both received massages while there with full spa services; dinner etc… Just a GREAT anniversary!!!
4. The drivers were prompt and very professional
5. The tour guides especially the private tour guide was very professional and extremely knowledgeable.
6. The package with the cell phone also had a little gift (cof ee pot), just a really nice souvenir.

Just an overall great vacation!!! I highly recommend Just Escape Travel and Michelle to plan your vacation!”

NORWAY | FAMILY ACTIVE ESCAPE | 11 DAYS

“Just Escape Travel was so helpful planning our family hiking adventure in Norway, Michelle helped me plan our itinerary, lodging, rental car, airfare to travel to this beautiful country. She was always willing to make changes to accommodate our desires and had great suggestions of her own to make sure our trip was an amazing experience. All travel went smoothly and we will never forget our trip, especially the unbelievable hikes: Kjeragbolten, Priekestolen, Trolltunga and Nigardsbreen Glacier!”

KIM

PRAGUE, BUDAPEST, VIENNA, SWITZERLAND, MILAN | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 21 DAYS

“Highly recommend Michelle at Just Escape Travel! She helped us to plan & organize the European Vacation of our dreams for our 35th Wedding Anniversary. We did not know where to stay, what time of year to go or what to plan- only that we wanted fun, adventure, great food, service & amazing scenery. Michelle led us though the myriad of options & her expertise was truly invaluable. She listened to our goals, made suggestions & all of the arrangements. One especially pivotal suggestion was to hire drivers or take trains. Normally we drive on our own and feel the stress of that. Having ground transportation organized ahead of time, made the best use of our time & was a stress-less way to travel ~Australia is next on the Travel Bucket List, can’t wait to see what Michelle & Just Escape Travel comes up with~”

SPAIN | HONEYMOON ESCAPE | 14 DAYS

“Finding Just Escape Travel was a blessing! We were looking into organizing our honeymoon and didnt know where to begin except that we wanted to go to Spain. In today’s world, it can be information overload and you dont know who to trust. Michelle was INCREDIBLE!!! Right from the beginning she worked on getting to know us and our preferences. She then put together a few options to narrow it done. From there she created a dream honeymoon! Everything was so detailed and organized before heading out. She booked everything including our flights! While on the trip we had people to contact if necessary, rides from airports to hotels for ease, and amazing experiences included! She not only planned a great trip but the value of getting to truly enjoy every minute and feel safe in every moment was priceless! We highly recommend Just Escape Travel and are trying to figure out another trip to take so we can use them again!”

APRIL

VIETNAM,LAOS, CAMBODIA | HONEYMOON ESCAPE | 20 DAYS

“We had an amazing carefree trip through SE Asia. Michelle did a great job balancing our honeymoon with adventure, exploration and relaxation. The accommodations were wonderful and the guides we had along the way went above and beyond, they were always professional, prompt and friendly. She did a great job tailoring the trip to our preferences and helping us select which countries would be best to visit during our 3-week honeymoon. Once the itinerary was complete we were able to alter the itinerary to fit our needs and add or remove excursions. I would highly recommend Just Escape Travel and couldn’t have imagined a better trip!”

CAITLIN

ASIA | ROMANTIC ESCAPE | 17 DAYS

“We felt confident with her recommendations, as she is well traveled herself. Experiences catered to what we wanted from our trip. She was exceptionally patient, as we changed our itinerary multiple times–even after we had already booked our excursions! I think I sent her a couple emails a day and she was always responsive and professional. Helped us craft an exceptional trip. This was our first time using a travel agent and I don’t know why anybody would travel without consulting one!”

She went above and beyond in many ways. Every part of the trip was great. Every detail was taken care of, such as airport pick-ups and drop-of s; our rental cars were waiting for us in each spot and our lodging hosts and all activity guides were ready for us, all making the vacation seamless. I look forward to having another opportunity to plan a vacation with Michelle!”

ANNE

HAWAII | FAMILY ESCAPE | 9 DAYS

“We had a wonderful time in Kauai. Michelle set us up with great accommodations, recommendations and she was incredibly responsive. We stayed at Koloa Landing Resort and Spa and the room was so spacious and lovely. We had so much space for our four person family it made our downtime just as nice as our active time. Also, Michelle’s recommendations for restaurants and activities were really spot on. I would suggest not going on a catamaran ride (Michelle did not suggest this, found it on my own) if you don’t tolerate rough seas well. It really was a wasted morning if you can find a different way to see the northern coast, I would do that. I would recommend a family trip to Kauai to anyone who enjoys hiking, gorgeous scenery, and beaches. Thank you, Just Escape Travel.”
