Best Planned Trip to Japan!
Eri is the BEST! I have been to Japan many times to visit family and friends throughout my life, but it had been 13 years since my last trip. A lot has changed in the travel world, so I had some apprehension about going but Eri took care of everything. One of the best decisions I ever made was hiring her. She is organized, thorough, conscientious, accessible, and fast! Since she travels to Japan often herself, she is current on all the rules. She walked me through every part of the process from before we left WA (preparing any documents to get through customs), all hotel, all activities (Gibli museum, Team Labs, Kyoto Tour, Kimono Photos in Asakusa, etc.), train & travel arrangements within Japan (Shinkansen tickets, JR Pass), to helping me prepare when coming back to WA. She suggested various options for how long to stay in each city, gave me time frames, and truly made my worries disappear. I have recommended her to everyone I know and will be using her services again. Don't hesitate

Amazing Antarctica
Eri was super helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and fun to work with. Great communicator with prompt responses to emails and she checks in with you to see how things are going. Reach out so she can help you plan that trip of a lifetime.

Eri Hayakawa is A+!
From the moment my husband and I met Eri to inquire about planning a trip to Hawaii to celebrate his major milestone birthday which would include our four grown daughters flying from different parts of the U.S., we appreciated her joyful enthusiasm, guidance, experience, and excellent communication skills. The group package which Eri put together for us included flights, staying at one of the Westin hotels on Kaanapali Beach, airport shuttle, and an exciting luau. Everything went flawlessly. All six of us had a fabulous, memorable time! We wholeheartedly recommend Eri for your next travel plans.

Much Improved Booking
I had booked an Antarctic Expedition directly with Viking but when I needed to make an adjustment, I consulted Eri. Not only did she facilitate the adjustment, but she secured a better booking at lower price and a cabin upgrade. Eri is very attentive and easy to work with. She starts with a "Can Do" attitude and gets the job done. I am definitely using Eri going forward.

Dream Trip a Reality
For twenty years my husband and I dreamed of traveling to Greece someday. Eri got word of that and kept her eyes open for a deal we couldn’t refuse! From the 7 day cruise through the isles, to the boutique hotels in Athens and Rome (yes we added a stop and extended our stay!), from the excursions to the flights, Eri helped us with every detail and personalized it to fit what we wanted. Without Eri, this trip would still be on our bucket list and just a dream. The question above asks if I’d recommend Eri to a family member, and without hesitation the answer is a solid YES! In fact I have recommended her to my mom, my cousin, and several friends. This is a no-brainer. If you like to travel and don’t want to fret about the details, Eri is your girl!!
