Vendor Rave-Travel Tom!

FH and I booker our honeymoon today with Travel Tom and we are so excited!

Tom was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. He was so nice, extremely patient, very knowledgable, budget conscious without sacrificing quality and above all honest!

FH and I knew we wanted to go to Italy and Switzerland. Tom explained that travelling in and out of Switzerland is not only expensive, but takes a lot of time. Since we would only be able to allocate 10 days to the honeymoon, he didnt feel that it would be feasible and his opinion would be to just go to Italy. While I was disappointed (I REALLY wanted to to to Switzerland!) I respected his opinion and was totally comfortable deferring to his judgement.

We are going to Venice for 2 days, Florence for 3 days and Rome for 4 days. The hotels he booked for us are highly rated properties and the tours are perfect--allowing us enough time to still be newlyweds! AND, Tom came in over $1100 below our budget! He ROCKS!

I highly recommend contacting Tom for your honeymoon if you havent booked already...you wont be disappointed!

I've been to Switzerland. BORRRR-ING.

Congrats on booking your HM! Quick question: do you have to have an American Express card to use him? He's an AE travel agent, right?

No, you dont need an Amex card to book, but will get bonus points if you do use one. We used Amex, received the bonus points and with all the points we have (we had alot prior anyway) we can use them for a future vacation. Booked with Travel Tom of course!
