What a professional, Sam lives and breaths travel and would not be surprised she goes to sleep with a carry on bag at her side. The destination, Antartica the 7th continent (February, 2024) on a 12 night expedition cruise on Hurtigruten, now HX. It was one year of planning for our son, my wife and I. Sam organized a video presentation (January, 2023) with a Hurtigruten representative highlighting the expedition. A week later we made the commitment to join VS1's hosted trip. Through out the entire process Sam responded to our questions no matter how minute (sorry) and tempered our concerns. She kept us abreast of recommended items to purchase from clothings to water proof cell phone coverings. November/December proved to be a critical time to provide timely medical information and insurance documentation, Sam shepared us through the process. On February 5, 2024 it was showtime and indeed what a 'once in a lifetime experience'. Thank you Sam and VS1.

Working with Samantha took away all the typical stressors of trip planning, especially researching hotels and making all the necessary reservations. She researched resorts, gave us options and room types at each resort with pricing, descriptions, and included amenities. Our options were nicely organized in a personalized webpage, making it easy to compare our choices.
We ultimately booked an all-inclusive trip to Jamaica. Samantha booked our flights, airport transfers, accommodations, and an excursion. All of the information we needed was communicated via email. She even had a phone app where we could access our trip details and itinerary.
She was always available to answer any questions about our trip and provided a very smooth experience from beginning to end. We will definitely book with her again!
