Embark on the Splendor of a European River Cruise

Close your eyes and let your imagination drift along the gentle currents of the Danube River, where ancient castles perch on hilltops and vineyards stretch as far as the eye can see. Or perhaps, envision the majestic Rhine River, where fairytale towns and breathtaking landscapes paint a picture of...

A Dream Italian Thanksgiving

Thank you so much for helping us plan the most amazing memorable trip of a lifetime! Everything was perfect and the hotels were exactly what we were hoping for - central location, enough sleeping space for our family and number of bathrooms, level of hotel service and amenities with restaurant & bar/lounge and breakfast included daily was a perfect start and end to everyday on our trip! We all enjoyed every minute and can’t wait for our next European vacation Can’t thank you enough...YOU’RE AWESOME!!

Global Family Adventures

So happy with 7 Wonders Vacation & Travel with Kelli Benitez! Kelli helped us with 2 vacations now both in 2024, one in Costa Rica, one in Europe, and it really is peace of mind to have someone to help make the reservations up front, and to be able to call in case there was a question or issue (which there wasn't!) We were greeted with a sweet welcome note by Kelli upon check in' s and just received a sweet treat as a thank you for booking through her. There can be so many moving parts in planning vacations, it's wonderful to have someone helping on the preplanning part with suggestions and recommendations! Thanks Kelli!

Mother/Daughter Paris Graduation Trip

Sometimes the unexpected happens: "... I appreciate all your help. I've never really worked with (a) travel agent before and I was a little surprised that you reached out to me when our flight was canceled and help me with all of that... I couldn't appreciate that anymore. A lot of my fellow passengers were like, 'Wow she reached out to you. We had to reach out to ours'... I was like 'Yeah cause mine is the best.' "

Alaskan Family Cruise

I want to thank you for your help/assistance with our family cruise to Alaska. It was truly lovely and so important for the family spend some time together. Your knowledge of Alaska/Vancouver helped us plan our trip and see the most we could see. Stunning part of the global. Your patience dealing with our family was surely appreciated. It was a pleasure getting to know you. Grateful for your help!

European Bucket List Trip

Thank you so much for the gift we received today. You are a sweet and thoughtful person. We had the time of our lives and enjoyed every minute. I loved so many of the places we experienced and the sight of all the beautiful buildings. We would stop in our tracks when we would come around a corner and see such amazing sites....You have everything dialed in (with the) Trip Plans app. Many thanks again for helping make this a dream come true and it was so enjoyed.

French Polynesian Anniversary Trip

We had an amazing trip! My husband and I want to go back to Bora Bora for another big anniversary for sure. I cannot tell you how easy this process was, especially going to another country and not speaking the languages. The Intercontinental in Bora Bora was definitely our favorite for so many reasons...overwater bungalow, great restaurants and breakfast buffet, amazing people, unbelievable view. Manava in Moorea is a sweet resort. The staff was amazing here as well. (At) the Intercontinental in Tahiti, we were upgraded to an overwater bungalow. This was fun! The transfer to the ferry was great, and the van driver made sure we knew exactly where to go to catch the ferry. She pointed out the stairs we needed to take and gave clear instructions of where to go. The ferry ride was like an excursion. You could sit on top and just enjoy the ride or sit inside, which is huge, and enjoy the air conditioning and even get food. Thank you again for planning such an amazing trip!!!

Maui Family Vacation At Last!

Hi Kelli. I wanted to give you a big thank you for your work in arranging our trip to Maui. I got home Saturday night and was sad as was everyone, to leave Maui. We all had an absolutely wonderful trip. It was heart warming to see all members of my family with huge smiles during all the activity and finally relaxing. Honua Kai was great and we had a great ocean view. We all loved the Lanai and the large size allowed all eight of us to be out and comfortable together. Thank you for all of your recommendations, working with our crazy schedules and requests! The welcome gift in our room was such a nice surprise and we enjoyed it all. We are all anxious to go back and will definitely contact you when we have definite dates. Thank you so much again.

Corporate event went off without a hitch!
Kelli was our travel advisor for a corporate event we planned in NYC in December, 2024. She negotiated the hotel room block, assisted with all venues and event orders at the hotel, made the travel arrangements to NYC for all our participants, and arranged for bus transportation to/from all the events we held off property. Everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. We have already discussed using her services for our event in 2025. You're in good hands with Kelli!

Great Adventures
Kelli was great to work with. She always there to answer even my "silly questions" but things that help put my mind at ease when planning a family vacation. I will absolutely circle back with Kelli when we are planning our next vacation. She was knowledgable about the cruise line and helped to narrow down what would be the best experience for my family.

Amazing trip with incredible customer service!
Excellent customer service. Kelli planned everything down to the smallest detail. The app is easy to use and incredibly functional. We loved having all the details and tickets all in one place during our trip. Our airline went on strike right before our trip and we were very nervous. Kelli outlined every step we would need to take if it impacted us, which it didn't. She's incredibly detail oriented and asked questions we never would have thought of! Incredible trip we will remember the rest of our lives.
