TESTIMONIALS

What clients are saying

"A true blessing"

Working with Amanda at Across The Horizon Travel has been a true blessing for my wife and myself. We have used their services often for trips, especially those that have connecting hotels, rental cars and other services connected with the travel. One particular time while traveling in DC we were booked at a very well-known Hotel, known for good service, but when I arrived there were no rooms available. They asked me to wait for about 20-30 minutes but that 20-30 minutes turned into 2 hours. I called Amanda and within a very short period of time the desk contacted me, apologized for the delay and even offered me extra meal tickets and drink tickets at the bar. The hotel manager even personally called to my room to apologize.

I recommend you use Across The Horizon Travel for all your travel needs in the future.

"Very Impressed"

I am so grateful for the book Amanda used to teach me how to run events. It was incredibly helpful - especially the way she broke things down. I used it to help plan my event and couples retreat.

Thanks again for your support.

In her training, I also got help figuring out costs for tickets which can be challenging I figured out.

Very impressed.
