Our Company Incentive trip to New Orleans was incredible! The hotel surpassed the expectations of many. The food was incredible. The location was perfect and allowed us the ability to enjoy New Orleans by walking out the front door! It was a trip many will remember for years to come.
Thank you again for your patience and hard work!!

I just wanted to say thank you for helping us plan our 25th anniversary in Jamaica! We had a great time and very relaxing. It was great. The beautiful resort swim-up and spa was the bomb! We met lots of great people and even a former Indianapolis Colt’s football player and his wife. Thank you so much again. Trying to figure out the next adventure for next year and will be reaching out to you again.

Have a great day 😁!!

Mrs. Ann was such an amazing help with our big day. Between late night anxiety text from me and the million of family members calling about their travel arrangements, she was always there to help with such a awesome attitude that I never truly needed to worry about a thing. With Ann’s great experience, my worries were always demolished with in seconds. Having Ann come with us and continue with her help up to the second I walked down the aisle was the best decision we made. My husband & I would recommend Ann 1000x to anyone who is looking to have a stress free destination wedding or just looking to travel in or out of the country.

“Travel Makers gave me my DREAM TRIP!!! I had no idea how to experience Europe for the first time, and STRUCK GOLD consulting a fantastic travel agent in Ann Johnson. She coordinated a masterpiece vacation, one I will NEVER FORGET! Ann put ALL OF THIS together in ONE TRIP for me:

I marveled at Buckingham Palace, dined high above Paris inside the Eiffel Tower, was fascinated by personal tours inside the Louvre Museum, said prayers in the Notre Dame, swam in the Mediterranean under a gorgeous sunset in Ibiza, Spain, drank delicious wine in Tuscany, fell in love with Florence, Italy, explored the Coliseum, Vatican, and living history that is Rome via individual professional tour experts, cruised a yacht around Capri, and left a piece of my heart in Sorrento and the BEAUTIFUL Amalfi Coast at Positano.

All accommodations were 5 stars and superb! I felt extremely secure with personal drivers waiting for me and a travel agency that watched over me every step of the way. From timelines to tickets, hotels to incredible excursions, my entire itinerary was thorough, well planned, and made travel truly delightful. I had no idea travel could be this easy, nor this wonderful!!! If you are looking for a perfect trip, Travel Makers is THE WAY TO GO!! I was able to avoid all the hassles, worrying, and headache trying to figure things out on my own. Ann Johnson gave me an experience that was 100 times better than I could have ever expected. The entire experience was First Class. I will never, ever be able to top it!!!

P.S. This was just from my FIRST trip with Travel Makers… (I have come back and used them again and again, from cruising the Greek Islands to site-seeing Prague, to Norway and the best of Scandinavia, just to name a few… I’ve had the best travel memories and experiences from so many different parts of the world!) Ann Johnson and Lisa Tanner have been remarkable. They are my go-to agents for all things travel! Maybe one day I’ll see you out on a Travel Makers trip some time too!

Brie K.

“Hi Ann!!! We just got home late last night! We had such a wonderful time!!!

St Lucia was so beautiful, we truly enjoyed our stay. The resort was organized, food was delicious, Zip Lining was SO MUCH FUN. Oh my god. We didn’t do anything else besides that, we just wanted to kick back and have our cocktails by the pool and just relax. It was perfect.

When we got back into the US and had to go thru customs, the line was insane. But I had that mobile pass you told me about and we waited in line for like 5 minutes and breezed thru! I felt like we were cheating the system or something!! That was the BEST. Thank you so much for hooking us up with that!!

Thank you for absolutely everything you did for us. I’m so glad we picked you as our travel agent. You were just perfect 🙂 everything you told me was spot on. Thank you so much for making this so easy and so enjoyable. We had such a wonderful honeymoon 🙂 🙂

Thanks Ann!!!!!!!!!”

“Renee Capano of Travel Makers recently booked a trip for us to Hawaii. Renee gave us several options and once we decided on the Trafalgar trip, Renee took care of all the details. After the trip, I would like to say we were totally satisfied with Renee’s work and the Trafalgar tour. We chose the 4 Island Trafalgar tour of Hawaii. The tour director can make the trip and our director, Michael Murakami, did a great job. Michael added a great amount of knowledge during our travels in Hawaii. He extended a personal feel during the tour along with a sense of humor to keep all of our travels fun as well as having everything very organized during the inter-island transfers. There were several optional tours offered for each island that could appeal to a number of persons. Great trip!”


Debbie K.

“I want to thank you for putting our Yellowstone trip together for us. We had a blast. Saw lots, did lots. Eatons Dude Ranch was awesome. The attached picture is during our evening ride at the ranch to the top of Chocolate Drop mountain. Awesome view.

We have ton of wonderful pictures. The only negative was spending a lot of time in the car since things are so spread out. .but we made the best of it and thoroughly enjoyed our vacation. Thanks again!”


Diana S.

The Trip to Switzerland the crown Jewel 2015 was a “Trip of a Lifetime”!! Just like Ann Johnson owner of Travel Makers said it would be! Switzerland is just beautiful and the tour with Tauck that Ann set up for us was just AMAZING!! The trip included everything from the influences of the boarders of France, Germany and Italy to day trips in Italy that included Lake Como and Lakes Maggiore & Lugano visiting Isola Bella 17th-century palace and gardens. From swiss castles to Zermatt, the Matterhorn, the Alps, St. Moritz and the Old City of Berne, Jungfraujoch and much much more!! Ann takes care of setting everything up for you leaving out no detail. The trip and travels arrangements that Ann made for us did not just meet our expectations…THEY EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS! WE THANK TRAVEL MAKERS AND ANN JOHNSON FOR SETTING UP… A TRIP OF A LIFE TIME! Ann did it again this Summer 2016! Setting up another fabulous vacation to Newport RI, in New England. Once again Ann took care of “every” detail. Another Amazing Vacation! Sailing, tennis museums, historical towns, touring famous Rose and Vanderbilt mansions, beaches, light house tours ..etc! We loved it! Thanks Again Ann! D&B


Pat G.

“Lisa planned a exciting & beautiful tour. I was amazed at how organized everything went “like clock work”!!! We saw the highlights of Portugal & Spain, as well as the smaller personal parts of the quaint little villages and their people. The hotels, our guides, transportation & food was the best. It’s easy to see Lisa puts her heart into making the tour something unforgettable for her clients. She’s #1 in my book, can’t wait to travel with her again. (Thank you Lisa for the TLC!)”


Jennifer Y.

Gayle and Ann were wonderful! Great people to work with. They will get you the best deal around. They made things so easy for us while booking. We just sat back and let them handle everything. Our whole trip was very organized and I would recommend them to anyone. We will definitely be using them for now on! Great team they have!


Carolyn R.

Travel Makers has been helping us set our trips for about 15 years. We have always gotten good advice on the best time to plan the trip to the destination we have chosen. If they have been to that destination they give us good advice and tips. They were very helpful in taking care of our boarding pass. We have always been pleased with everyone who works for Travel Makers.


Robin P.

Regardless of which person you work with, you are always given personal attention. Much effort is put into planning so that your vacation is “worry free”, the way a vacation should be!

Elise J.

I loved working with Ann. She was very sweet, hands-on, and accommodating. She made sure that everyone was settled in once they arrived in Punta Cana, helped with preparations for the wedding, and assisted with putting together welcome bags for guests. Now, all of my friends are talking about working with her to help them plan trips.

I have been very happy with my experiences for many years with Travel Makers. Louise has always been very helpful!

Ann Johnson was key to making our first Hawaiian trip a great experience. From the first steps in planning the trip to working out many detailed arrangements to providing experienced guidance for us to enjoy the trip, Ann was super. She is well organized and pays attention to details. The itinerary Ann prepared with our input worked out great and we had a very enjoyable and relaxing trip.


Taylor E.

“Lisa Tanner is the most knowledgeable travel agent I have ever met! I have not yet booked a trip with her yet, but I definitely will in the near future. She is extremely educated when it comes to travel best practices and planning a trip. I would highly recommend her to help you plan a trip!”

Always a pleasure when dealing with everyone especially Louise. She always takes excellent care of our every need.


Tanesia L.

I had a wonderful experience with Ann. The first time working with her was also my first time leaving the country for my friends wedding in DR. She was so professional, sweet and accommodating. Ann has so much passion for what she does, made me so excited about my trip and made everything so easy. I am very thankful to have worked with her and look forward to working with her again for future travels.


Kim S.

I always have a great experience Gayle knows me so well, I would never trust our vacations to another agency People ask me why I use a travel agent and don’t book myself , and I always tell them When u go away especially out of the country you want to make sure your trip is what u expect , knowing a professional agent is the only way to travel I go away knowing every detail has been taken care of n never worry


S. Montgomery

Gayle had been our “go to” for our trips the last 10 years. Last year, she and her team really worked to get us out of a last minute jam regarding passports that were screwed up by the airlines. That was outstanding customer service!! Travel Makers “book it and cook it”! We don’t have to worry about a thing. See ya next year.


Phil and Linda Hohman

We want to thank Louise at Travel Maker’s for helping us put together our trip to Alaska. She made sure we had all of our cruise, land tour and flight information up to date, and if we had any questions or problems she was always available to assist us. We had a wonderful time on this once in a lifetime trip. We highly recommend it.


Cheryl Bursaw & Family

I really want to thank you so much for all your help, patience and understanding when my dad was sick this past summer.  You were wonderful.  You really helped with the insurance company even though you didn’t even book the flights.  I will never forget how great you were to us!

Jacob M, Costa Mesa, CA

I was looking for a travel agency based around Washington DC to book our family Christmas cruise in December of 2013. I needed them to be close to Washington; my parents live there and they wanted to have someone they could go to if they had questions. My experience with Travel Makers was amazing from the very beginning – Ann coordinated 5 family flights from 4 different states and got us all to the cruise ship safe and sound! Our cruise was fantastic, and Travel Makers helped us make reservations for dinner and excursions on the islands. Ann even called me personally after we had returned to make sure everything was satisfactory. You really get the whole package with Travel Makers!


Jessica T, Seattle, Washington

I was looking for a Travel Agency to make my husbands birthday a truly amazing affair. A college friend had recommended a travel agency near where she lives (in Maryland), and at first I was skeptical. I’m live in Seattle and it seemed odd to use an agency so far away. I gave Travel Makers a call anyway, and they helped me book an amazing getaway to Southern California for my husbands 30th! They took care of everything, from dinner reservations to horseback riding. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. There was even a note in the room when we got there letting us know that if we had any problems just to give Travel Makers a call. They really went above and beyond for us.


J. Radtke, Tampa, Florida

My husband, Jeremy, is in the military and we used Travel Makers to book his mid-tour deployment trip. We booked a cruise through the agency and the service was excellent. Our Travel Agent recommended the cruise insurance, because of the fact that my husband was in the military and deployed, in case of any unforseen circumstances. When a rocket attack grounded flights leaving the base we had to cancel our original cruise, file paperwork to be reimbursed, and book a new cruise at the last second. Louise McCall was able to do all of the above and was a real lifesaver throughout the situation. She was even able to help us shuffle around hotel stays at the end of the cruise. All of the ladies are great to work with and I would recommend Travel Makers to anyone. Anytime I have questions about Disney vacation information they are able to answer and provide recommendations as well. I have moved to Florida and still call them to book my travel plans.
