Reviews of South Pacific Journeys (Travel Agency)

John Schreiner

Heather and I have used Michelle's services multiple times over the years: from planning a 10 day self directed tour of the South Island of New Zealand, to a three day extension of a European trip adding a visit to Bruges, to just booking tickets to travel to Vienna. And we will continue to rely on her expertise. After a detailed chat on how we like to travel, and what types of accommodations and visits we enjoy, she found the perfect mix of excursions and accomodations. For the Vienna trip she found that if we were willing to travel through Venice on our way there we would save over 1400$ on our two tickets. More than enough that we added an unexpected few days stay in Venice to our trip. Beauty! And all this service with a friendly demeanour and no pressure. we recommend her highly.

WOW – that is all I can say about the trip that Michelle prepared for us. We travelled to Australia in February with our daughter who was on an exchange program with University of South Australia. We stayed in Adelaide for a week and then onto our “trip of a lifetime” to the French Polynesia. All we wanted was to stay in a hut over the water but Michelle took it one step further and organized several day trips which made the experience so much more. Thinking of this trip still puts a smile our faces. We met with Michelle before our trip and she went over our itinerary and gave us a detailed copy of it. This was so helpful as we had a lot of flights and stops in this 2+ week vacation. If you are looking for that “trip of a lifetime” Michelle is the travel agent you will want to contact. Also, she was instrumental in helping our daughter get home ending her adventure of a lifetime, but getting her home safely was our main concern and Michelle stayed in touch with us until she landed in Kingston.

Michelle booked a fantastic trip for 9 ppl to Thailand over Christmas and New Years. Time in Koh Samui and Bangkok including flights – great resorts and hotels (including Banyan Tree in Bangkok) – all transfers and private tours. We appreciated Michelle’s attention to detail and quick responses – the trip was amazing – and we would highly recommend Michelle.

We have worked with Michelle Streicher in Kingston on planning and organizing a number of our bucket list adventures including Australia, New Zealand, Kenya, Uganda and others. Michelle approaches each adventure in a thoughtful, thorough and professional manner. It always begins with a meeting to assess our interests, motivation for the particular adventure, our preferred travel approach (varies based on the destination and what it offers), and our budget. She then interfaces with her international colleagues to prepare exactly what we have been looking for. Sometimes there is tinkering, and Michelle actually appreciates that, because she is truly interested in meeting our needs. In short - she cares. She cares about every detail and about keeping us happy with our experiences. She has always delivered a seamless trip for us. One of the most important things we have always noticed is her ability to develop positive working relationships with her colleagues abroad - they seem to know her and we feel this has impacted their desire to please us. If you want quality, someone who seriously explores your interests and approach to travel with the view to deliver a professional results-oriented adventure, then Michelle is highly recommended. It is sometimes risky to refer friends for something this important, but we were confident and Michelle delivered. They told us.
