"We had our agent arrange our travel for a Rhein river cruise. She took all of the confusion and worry out of the whole itinerary from air to pre and post stays and the cruise itself. We had a memorable time and met some people with whom were staying in touch."
– Jana Aspin
"I contacted our agent, while we were on our cruise, to see if she could change our flight home to an earlier one. Within the hour it was a done deal. She also contacted the company for our ride to the airport... We will only use Awaken Travels."
