My travel planner, Jeff, who is on top of his field (based on travel industry awards), is a highly professional, very effective and, at the same time, personally nice individual. What was also critical to me is that he has a first hand experience traveling in the region that I am going to. On top of that, the customer relations director, Sarah, has personally followed up to make sure I'm happy.
